A method for producing a heat radiating member includes: a preparation step to prepare a composite material which contains particles of a satisfactorily thermally conductive material in a metal matrix; a powder arrangement step to dispose a metal powder composed of metal particles on at least one surface of the composite material; and a heating step to heat the composite material and the metal powder, with the metal powder disposed on the composite material, to form a metal layer composed of a metal of the metal powder on a composite portion composed of the composite material.

Systems according to the present disclosure provide one or more surfaces that function as heat or power radiating surfaces for which at least a portion of the radiating surface includes or is composed of fractal cells placed sufficiently closed close together to one another so that a surface (plasmonic) wave causes near replication of current present in one fractal cell in an adjacent fractal cell. A fractal of such a fractal cell can be of any suitable fractal shape and may have two or more iterations. The fractal cells may lie on a flat or curved sheet or layer and be composed in layers for wide bandwidth or multibandwidth transmission. The area of a surface and its number of fractals determines the gain relative to a single fractal cell. The boundary edges of the surface may be terminated resistively so as to not degrade the cell performance at the edges.

A method and system for increasing cooling of an enclosure is provided. The component enclosure includes one or more sidewalls defining a volume, the sidewalls are configured to substantially surround a heat generating component positioned within the volume. The component enclosure further includes a synthetic jet assembly positioned adjacent at least one of the sidewalls.

A heat exchanger includes a plurality of principal heat exchange sections and auxiliary heat exchange sections. Each of the auxiliary heat exchange sections is in series connection to a corresponding one of the principal heat exchange sections. Tube number ratios of the principal heat exchange sections are obtained by dividing the number of the flat tubes constituting each of the principal heat exchange sections to by the number of the flat tubes constituting a corresponding one of the auxiliary heat exchange sections. Of the principal heat exchange sections, the first principal heat exchange section, which is the lowermost one, has the smallest tube number ratio. Consequently, discharge of liquid refrigerant from a lower portion of the first principal heat exchange section is accelerated during defrosting, thereby shortening the time required for defrosting.
