Thermal Management System developed for aerospace carriers (missile, aircraft, space station), bounds processes of generation and dissipation, transfer and conversion of power, refrigeration, and of bio-metabolism related substances. Local ecosystem of the carrier combines technological and biological subsystems, interacting with internal and outer spaces. The conceptual IETM System performs recovery of waste thermal energy, generation of “free” refrigeration, and recovery of byproducts into safe coolants (ammonia - water). Thermal Management solutions include novel technologies of intensification of the heat transfer and of conversion of the waste resources into refrigeration for extension of cooling capabilities for high heat radars, lasers and microwave generators. The IETM includes Vacuum-Evaporative Refrigeration (VER) utilizing “free natural” vacuum and waste heat-activated refrigeration circuits. VER generates ~1000 Btu of “free” cold per pound of wastewater or ammonia. The introduced high performance microstructure of compound electrohydrodynamic (EHD) boundary microsystems intensifies nucleate boiling, preventing dryout. The coils of the microwires adjoin to the boiling surface and form precision microstructure of heat sink with microchannels between the coils and the surface. The microcavities form the active bubbling nucleation sites along the spiral zones of contacts of the microwires and basic surfaces. The fins-microelectrodes develop additional heat transfer surface and evenly distributed spiral zones of the nucleation sites. Like fibers of a fine wick, the electric forces in EHD capillary structures of the microelectrodes retain the liquid and push out generated vapor bubbles from the surface. Good manufacturability and performance of novel MEMS are based on well-developed materials and common winding technology “borrowed” from electrotechnical industry. Conversion of waste resources into refrigeration and EHD activation of boiling allow meeting strong limitations in weight, reliability and consumption of energy. These conceptual approaches provide diversities in refrigeration capabilities for IETM.

The almost half amount of power consumption in data centers which has been increasing drastically in late years is due to air conditioner for cooling down the data centers. The present authors proposed new thermal management systems for data centers aiming for the data centers without air conditioning, and R&D subjects have been conducted under the so called Green IT Project sponsored by NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization). In this system, three liquid cooling methods for CPUs have been developed simultaneously, which are two types of direct liquid cooling with single-phase or two-phase heat exchanger and an indirect liquid cooling with high performance thin heat pipes. To establish this system, five R&D subjects have been conducted. In this paper, current progress of these subjects such as development of heat transfer components, verification test using real server racks, and nanofluids technology for heat transfer enhancement is reported.

Reduced graphene oxide is an excellent candidate for various electronic devices such as high performance gas sensors. In this work Graphene oxide was prepared by oxidizing graphite to form graphite oxide. From XRD analysis the peak around 11.5o confirmed that the oxygen was intercalated into graphite. By using hydrazine hydrate, the epoxy group in graphite oxide was reduced then the solution of reduced graphite oxide (rGO) is exfoliated. Raman spectrum of rGO contains both G band (1580 cm-1), D band (1350 cm-1). The remarkable structural changes reveals that reduction of graphene oxide from the values of ID/IG ratio that increase from 0.727 (GO) to 1.414 (rGO). The exfoliated reduced graphite oxide solution is spin coated on to the SiO2/Si substrates.

AbstractHerein, we introduce a simple method to prepare hierarchical graphene with a tunable pore structure by activating graphene oxide (GO) with a two-step thermal annealing process. First, GO was treated at 600 °C by rapid thermal annealing in air, followed by subsequent thermal annealing in N2. The prepared graphene powder comprised abundant slit nanopores and micropores, showing a large specific surface area of 653.2 m2/g with a microporous surface area of 367.2 m2/g under optimized conditions. The pore structure was easily tunable by controlling the oxidation degree of GO and by the second annealing process. When the graphene powder was used as the supercapacitor electrode, a specific capacitance of 372.1 F/g was achieved at 0.5 A/g in 1 M H2SO4 electrolyte, which is a significantly enhanced value compared to that obtained using activated carbon and commercial reduced GO. The performance of the supercapacitor was highly stable, showing 103.8% retention of specific capacitance after 10,000 cycles at 10 A/g. The influence of pore structure on the supercapacitor performance was systematically investigated by varying the ratio of micro- and external surface areas of graphene.
