Are Heat Pipes the Answer to Your Thermal Issues? Heat Pipes are one of the most efficient ways to move heat, or thermal energy, from one point to another. These two-phase systems are typically used to cool high power electronics, even in outer space. Watch the on-demand webinar to learn more about designing and modeling heat pipes into your project. What you get: Answers to common questions about how to integrate heat pipes and best practices An in-depth heat pipe calculator tutorial Heat pipe modeling How-To's Types of heat pipes and working fluids you may not have known were available

Embedded computing systems are rapidly increasing in power densities, making thermal solutions a major design concern. In most cases, designers prefer a predominantly conduction cooled approach, which provides the highest reliability. ACT’s Isothermal Card Edge, or ICE-Lok™ wedgelocks, are designed to enhance card-to-chassis conduction by enhancing the heat flow through the wedgelocks by making additional contact between the card and the chassis. Learn more about ICE-Lok™ and see how it is utilized to improve thermal efficiency in embedded computing systems. ICE-Lok™ is a patented product. Copyright ACT 2018. All rights reserved.

As electrical/automation and control systems components become more compact and complex the internal enclosure heat loads are increasing. PLC’s, starters and drives are some of the major generators of heat in an enclosure. There are many challenges in the way we choose to keep the enclosures cool. ACT has developed a series of heat exchangers and air conditioners that are environmentally sealed to cool and protect the internal cabinet components from water, airborne chemical, and particulate contaminants. Watch now for an in-depth discussion on sealed enclosure cooling technology options. We will discuss both above and below ambient cooling technologies, how they are selected and how they are installed. We will conduct live demonstrations of each ACT sealed enclosure cooling family so you can compare sizes and options. We will encourage questions and discussion as if you were with us, in person, at a trade show! DOWNLOAD WEBINAR SLIDES

Heat pipes have been used for spacecraft thermal control for decades; however, the technology is continuously evolving. Heat Pipes are often selected due to their combination of thermal performance, low mass, and high reliability. This webinar will explore several variants including ammonia Constant Conductance Heat Pipes (CCHPs), Variable Conductance Heat Pipes (VCHPs), Loop Heat Pipes (LHPs) and Space Copper-Water Heat Pipes (SCWHPs). Each technology option provides a unique benefit for the spacecraft architecture. This webinar will dive into details to help aerospace engineers select and apply the appropriate technology- exploring considerations such as including heat flux, transport distances, geometry and mass. Our subject experts will also be available after the webinar for specific questions on your application.
