A dissipating device configured to dissipate the heat energy generated by the heat sources in the electronic devices. When the dissipating device contacts the heat sources, the heat energy can be absorbed by the dissipating device. The working fluid is stored within the dissipating device such that the working fluid can undergo a phase transition after the dissipating device absorbs heat energy. Then the working fluid can circulate inside the dissipating device. Accordingly, the heat-dissipation mechanism, which is applied to the dissipating device contacting the electronic devices, can be effectively sped up. The dissipating device is formed into a thin structure to achieve an excellent heat-dissipation effect with a limited heat-dissipation area.

A cooling system for a photovoltaic panel including micro flat heat pipes (HP) integrated with thermoelectric generators (TEG) and a cooled water reservoir for cooling the working fluid in heat pipes. The cooled water in the reservoir is pumped from the condensate pan of an air conditioner. Experimental results show that cooling system reduced the average temperature of the panel by as much as 19° C. or 25%. Further, the output power of the photovoltaic panel increased by 44% when the photovoltaic panel was used in a very hot climate (30-40° C.). An additional two watts of power was generated by the TEGs.

A protection element for vapor chamber includes a main body and a protection element. The main body is divided into a working zone and a sealing zone. The sealing zone is located around an outer periphery of the working zone and is provided with a notch area, to which a fluid-adding and air-evacuating pipe is connected. The protection element is correspondingly mounted to the notch area to contact with the sealing zone of the main body. With the arrangement of the protection element, the fluid-adding and air-evacuating pipe is protected against collision and impact and accordingly, the main body of the vapor chamber is protected against vacuum and working fluid leakage.

A heat sink for use in induction welding includes a number of tiles, wherein the tiles are electrically non-conductive and have a thermal diffusivity of greater than about 25 mm2/sec. A joint flexibly joins the tiles together.

An intermediate product for the production of a surface heat exchanger, in particular for building room air conditioning, including a support plate, on one side of which a tube system for conducting a medium is attached and on the other side of which a prefabricated adhesive tape having a manually removable outer protective layer is arranged, wherein the adhesive tape is free of any support.

Provided herein is a thermoelectric system for generating electricity using ambient temperature oscillations (e.g., between day and night time). The thermoelectric system may comprise a first heat exchanger, a thermoelectric generator, one or more heat conducting units, a second heat exchanger, and a container configured to (i) contain the second heat exchanger and a thermal storage material and (ii) insulate the thermal storage material from an external to the container.

A tube plate for a heat exchanger has a base body in which at least two apertures are formed for receiving respectively a tube body. In addition, the tube plate includes a groove, likewise formed in the base body, with which the two apertures are connected with one another.

A connection between one end of a Multi Port Extrusion (MPE) tube (1) of aluminium or an aluminium alloy and one header (2), the connection comprises an adapter (3) with a seal ring (4) fixed between the MPE tube and the header. The invention also relates to a method for connecting said parts.

A heat exchanger includes a plurality of cooling plates, a duct plate disposed around the cooling plates and a spacer plate fixed to both the duct plate and the cooling plate to prevent supercharged air from flowing into a gap between the duct plate and the cooling plate. The cooling plate includes cup portions allowing cooling water flow paths of the corresponding two cooling plates to be in communication with each other when the cooling plate is fixed to the adjacent cooling plate. The cooling water flow path formed in the cooling plate includes flow path portions and formed extending in a direction perpendicular to a flow direction of supercharged air from the corresponding cup portions. The cup portions are each formed in a tubular shape having a central axis at a position offset along the flow direction of the supercharged air from a center of the corresponding one of the flow path portions in a flow path width direction.

A heat exchange area (4) of a heating plate (1) of a plate heat exchanger having corrugations, wherein the corrugations have additional local corrugations on their front and/or side surfaces forming notches (45, 4F) and the apex line (4L) of the corrugations has discontinuous form, preferably it is a polygonal curve or a wavy line.
