Common Coolant Types and their Uses in Liquid Cooling Systems

Introduction

As power densities and thermal loads continue to increase in crowded electronic systems, and specific analytical and diagnostic testing processes demand more temperature stabilization for improved accuracy and results, more equipment designers, R&D labs and diagnostic laboratories are turning to liquid cooling solutions for better thermal management. Optimal cooling fluids improve accuracy of results, improve equipment performance, minimize downtime, reduce maintenance costs, ensure safety and can help meet environmental compliance.

Eco-Friendly Temperature Stabilization Solutions for OEMs’ Climate Action Goals

Introduction

At Laird Thermal Systems, we are committed to eco-friendly solutions for temperature stabilization for demanding applications across global medical, analytical, industrial, transportation, and telecommunications markets.

Older compressor-based systems often use high global-warming potential (GWP) HFC refrigerants like R134a and R404A. New industry requirements are moving away from the use of such refrigerants due to their environmental impact. New government restrictions on traditional and natural refrigerants are central to compressor-based systems.

Advanced Liquid Cooling for Rheometers

 

Introduction

Rheometers are scientific instruments used for studying the stress-strain relationship of polymers, fluids, and other soft materials to understand their flow/deformation properties. Rheometers are applied in a wide range of applications, such as in the development of new materials, quality control, and process optimization. Any rheometer that operates at elevated temperatures or measures temperature-dependent material properties requires a cooling system to maintain a precise temperature during testing.

Spot Cooling for Industrial Lasers & Optics

Introduction

With an increasing demand for advanced industrial manufacturing, laser systems have become the most important fabrication tool. While high powered lasers such as CO2 lasers are used for coarse cuts of metals, ultrafast lasers are used for fine cuts and polishing of semiconductor materials. Fiber lasers have the versatility to do both. In today’s consumer electronics, electrification of vehicles and green energy are driving the need for advanced laser machining and additive machining of complex materials.
