What are Some Innovative Thermal Management Systems?
Beyond traditional heat sinks, nanotechnology has paved the way for several innovative thermal management systems:
Phase Change Materials (PCMs): These materials absorb heat as they change phase from solid to liquid, providing effective thermal regulation at the nanoscale. Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs): Nanoparticle-infused TIMs are used to fill the microscopic gaps between heat sinks and electronic components, enhancing heat transfer. Microchannel Heat Sinks: Incorporating nanomaterials into microchannel designs significantly improves their thermal performance.
