The present invention refers to a device to repair leakage in high pressure shell-and-tube heat exchanger using gasket and tensioning by cases. The device aims to repair leakages in heat exchangers in flanged connections of large diameter where there is the gap or channel to allow for gasket placement. The device is fully screwed, with no risk of flash during its implantation and can be used at high temperatures and pressure, in addition to presenting an ease of manufacture/assembly, reducing implementation costs. Basically, the device comprises an adjustment screw holder, gasket compression ring, stabilizer support, and compression adjustment screws.

A shrinking device and a liquid cooling system are provided. The shrinking device includes a housing, and a shrinking bag at least partially inserted into the housing. The shrinking bag is in communication with the outside atmosphere through a vent hole. The shrinking device according to the present invention can solve the liquid leakage problem caused by excessive pressure inside the system.

A self-healing metal structure is provided for transferring heat between an electronics component and a substrate. The self-healing metal structure includes a base metal structural component. A phase change material is provided adjacent at least a portion of the base metal structural component. A protective component at least partially encapsulates the phase change material. Upon the presence of a spatial defect in the base metal structural component, the phase change material reacts with the base structural component to form an intermetallic compound to at least partially occupy the spatial defect. The phase change material at least partially encapsulated with the protective component may be disposed within the base metal structural component as a plurality of separate capsules incorporated therein, or the phase change material at least partially surrounds the base metal structural component.

In an embodiment, a battery module is provided with a cooling tube configured to carry liquid coolant for cooling a set of battery cells inside the battery module. A portion of the cooling tube being arranged beneath the set of battery cells and includes an integrated turbulator component configured to transition a flow of the liquid coolant from a laminar flow to a turbulent flow. In an example, the integrated turbulator component may be formed by integrating a turbulent component into a tube (e.g., a straight tube), and then bending the tube to produce the cooling tube portion.
