About Pumped Two Phase Cooling Technology
Pumped Two Phase Cooling, also known as Pumped Evaporative Cooling, is an active cooling technology that utilizes the latent energy associated with the boiling of a working fluid to efficiently remove large amounts of waste heat. Compared with single phase cooling, Pumped Two Phase Cooling enables lower flow rate, reduction in system size, reduction in pumping power, higher heat flux (a measure of heat density) removal capability, more uniform temperature across the heat source surface, and practical use of dielectric working fluids such as refrigerants. For more information on how the technology works, please visit www.1-ACT.com/Resources/Pumped-Two-Phase-Cooling/.
The Precision Cooling Business is a leader in designing and manufacturing refrigerant based Pumped Two Phase Cooling systems and assemblies. Its products have been used in cooling of electric drives, inverters, motors and generators, batteries, and other high power electronic devices.
