Ultrafast battery heat dissipation enabled by highly ordered and interconnected hexagonal boron nitride thermal conductive composites

Heat dissipation involved safety issues are crucial for industrial applications of the high-energy density battery and fast charging technology.While traditional air or liquid cooling methods suffering from space limitation and possible leakage of electricity during charge process,emerging phase change materials as solid cooling media are of growing interest.Among them,paraffin wax(PW)with large latent heat capacity and low cost is desirable for heat dissipation and thermal management which mainly hindered by their relatively low thermal conductivity and susceptibility to leakage.Here,highly ordered and interconnected hexagonal boron nitride(h-BN)networks were established via ice template method and introduced into PW to enhance the thermal conductivity.The composite with 20 wt%loading amount of h-BN can guarantee a highly ordered network and exhibited high thermal conductivity(1.86 W m^(-1) K^(-1))which was 4 times larger compared with that of random dispersed h-BN involved PW and nearly 8 times larger compared with that of bare PW.The optimal thermal conductive composites demonstrated ultrafast heat dissipation as well as leakage resistance for lithium-ion batteries(LIBs),heat generated by LIBs can be effectively transferred under the working state and the surface temperature kept 6.9℃ lower at most under 2–5℃ continuous charge-discharge process compared with that of bare one which illustrated great potential for industrial thermal management.

Heat Dissipation Modeling of <i>In-Situ</i>Conversion Process of Oil Shale

In-situ conversion of process of oil shale has been technically proven as a pilot field project. Gradually heating the reservoir by using subsurface electric heaters converts the oil shale reservoir kerogen into oil, gas and other producible components. This process also enhances the internal energy of the porous media as well as the subsurface fluid. Heat is transmitted in the reservoir within each fluid by different processes i.e. , due to the flow of fluid called advective process, and due to molecular diffusion where dispersive and diffusive processes take place. Heat transfer through conduction and convection mechanisms in the porous media are modeled mathematically and numerically incorporating the advective, dispersive and diffusive processes in the reservoir. The results show the production of oil and gas as a result of conversion of kerogen due to modeled heat dissipation.

Numerical Simulation of Thermal Management of Lithium Battery Based on Air Cooled Heat Dissipation

In recent years,due to the rapid increase in the number of vehicles in the world,the traditional vehicles using gasoline or diesel as energy have led to serious air pollution and energy depletion.It is urgent to develop practical clean energy vehicles.The performance of electric vehicle depends on the power battery pack.The working temperature of the battery pack has a great impact on the performance of the battery,so it is necessary to carry out thermal management on the battery pack.Taking a lithium-ion battery as the research object,the temperature field of the battery pack in the charge and discharge state is simulated and analyzed by using CFD simulation software in the way of air cooled heat dissipation,so as to understand the influencing factors of uneven temperature field.At the same time,the development trend of battery temperature can be well predicted through simulation,so as to provide theoretical basis for the design of battery pack.

Thermal Performance of Mini Cooling Channels for High-Power Servo Motor with Non-Uniform Heat Dissipation

High-power servo motor is widely employed as a necessary actuator in flight vehicles.The urgent problem to be solved restraining the working performance of servo motor is no longer the torque and power,but the heat dissipation capability under high-power working conditions,which may cause the overheat,even burn down of motor or other potential safety hazards.Therefore,a structure of mini cooling channels with appropriate channel density is designed in accordance with the non-uniform heat flux of servo motor in this paper.Combined with the regenerative cooling method,the cryogenic fuel supercritical methane is served as the coolant,which is easy to be obtained from the propulsion system,and the heat from the servo motor can be transported to the combustion for reusing.According to the actual working cases of servo motor,a numerical model is built to predict the thermal performance of cooling channels.In order to better represent the secondary flow of coolant in the cooling channels,especially the turbulent mixed flow in the manifold,the k-εRNG model with enhanced wall treatment is employed resulting from its precise capacity to simulate the secondary and wall shear flow.On this basis,the heat transfer mechanism and thermal performance of cooling channels,as well as the influence of various heat flux ratios are investigated,which can offer an in-depth understanding of restraining excessive temperature rise and non-uniformity distribution of the servo motor.By the calculation results,it can be concluded that under the adjustment of the channel density according to the corresponding heat flux,the positive role of the appropriate channel density and the manifolds on heat transfer is manifested.Moreover,the maximum temperature difference of heating wall can be kept within an acceptable range of the servo motor.The heat transfer coefficient in the manifold is nearly 2–4 times higher compared with that in the straight cooling channels.The effect of buoyancy force cannot be neglected even in the manifold with turbulent mixed flow,and the pattern of heat transfer is mixed convection one in all the flow regions.The thermal resistance R and overall Nusselt number Nu are affected remarkably by all the operation parameters studied in the paper,except the pressure,while the overall thermal performance coefficientηdemonstrates differently.The strong impact of heat flux ratio is implied on thermal performance of the cooling channels.Higher heat flux ratio results in the stronger non-uniform temperature distribution.Meanwhile,only tiny temperature differences of the fluid and inner wall in manifolds among various heat flux ratios are demonstrated,resulting from the positive effect of mixture flow on heat transfer.

Tough polyimide composites synergistically reinforced by carbon nanofiber-grafted carbon fiber and rGO for improved heat dissipation and electromagnetic interference shielding

The rapid miniaturization and a consequent increase in electromagnetic wave(EM)and heat emission in integrated electronic devices are now urgently desiring for multifunctional polymer composites that simultaneously possess high mechanical properties,excellent electromagnetic interference(EMI)shield-ing ability and heat dissipation capability.Herein,a series of novel polyimide-based composite films were constructed by rationally assembling the carbon nanofiber-grafted carbon fiber(NCF)and reduced graphene oxide(rGO)into a highly electrically and thermally conductive pathway within polyimide ma-trix via a sequential bidirectional freezing casting and hot-pressing strategy.The combination of high tensile strength and toughness was obtained by incorporating rGO into the NCF-reinforced PI composite,giving rise to a hierarchical reinforcing structure of NCF and crack deflection induced by rGO nanosheets.The high electrical conductivity(7.0×10^(3) S m^(-1))endows the PI/NCF30/rGO3.5 composite film with a good EMI shielding effectiveness of 45 dB.Moreover,the well-aligned thermally conductive NCF and rGO and strong interfacial bonding between the polymer matrix and reinforcing fibers give rise to improved thermal conductivity(λ),particularly along the in-plane direction.Typically,the PI/NCF30/rGO3.5 exhibits an in-plane thermal conductivity of 5.18 W m^(-1) K^(-1),∼4.7 times increment compared to the pure PI(0.91 W m^(-1) K^(-1)).Besides,the resultant PI/NCF30/rGO3.5 composite film presents a superior Joule heat-ing performance with some features of fast thermal response,ease of regulation and sufficient reliability.Accordingly,the developed multifunctional polyimide-based composite films demonstrate high potential as advanced EMI shielding materials with excellent heat dissipation.

Heat Dissipation Performance of Porous Copper with Elongated Cylindrical Pores

The purpose of this paper is to investigate heat dissipation performance of porous copper with long cylindrical pores fabricated by a unidirectional solidification method. Three samples with porosity of 29.87%, 34.47% and 50.98% were chosen and cut into size of 60 mm （length） × 26 mm （width） × 2 mm （thickness） along the vertical direction of pore axis. Their heat dissipation performance was evaluated by a nonsteady method in air and compared to those of not only bulk copper but also bored coppers with porosity of 30.61% and 32.20%. It is found that the porous copper dissipated heat faster by a forced air convection than that by natural convection from 80 ℃ to room temperature and both porosity and pore size play an important role in the performance for the porous copper. Furthermore, the heat dissipation rate is higher when the forced air was circulated along the specimens than that perpendicular to the specimens for the porous copper. It is revealed that porous copper with bigger porosity and a proper pore size possesses a higher heat dissipation rate. It is concluded that the porous copper with elongated cylindrical pores has larger heat dissipation performance than both the bulk copper and the bored copper, which is attributed to its higher specific surface area. Application of the porous copper for heat dissipation is promising.

Highly anisotropic thermal conductivity of few-layer CrOCl for efficient heat dissipation in graphene device

With the packing density growing continuously in integrated electronic devices,sufficient heat dissipation becomes a serious challenge.Recently,dielectric materials with high thermal conductivity have brought insight into effective dissipation of waste heat in electronic devices to prevent them from overheating and guarantee the performance stability.Layered CrOCl,an antiferromagnetic insulator with low-symmetry crystal structure and atomic level flatness,might be a promising solution to the thermal challenge.Herein,we have systematically studied the thermal transport of suspended few-layer CrOCl flakes by microRaman thermometry.The CrOCl flakes exhibit high thermal conductivities along zigzag direction,from~392±33 to~1,017±46 W·m^(−1)·K^(−1) with flake thickness from 2 to 50 nm.Besides,pronounced thickness-dependent thermal conductivity ratio(/from~2.8±0.24 to~4.3±0.25)has been observed in the CrOCl flakes,attributed to the discrepancy of phonon dispersion and phonon surface scattering.As a demonstration to the heat sink application of layered CrOCl,we then investigate the energy dissipation in graphene devices on CrOCl,SiO_(2) and hexagonal boron nitride(h-BN)substrates,respectively.The graphene device temperature rise on CrOCl is only 15.4%of that on SiO_(2) and 30%on h-BN upon the same electric power density,indicating the efficient heat dissipation of graphene device on CrOCl.Our study provides new insights into two-dimentional(2D)dielectric material with high thermal conductivity and strong anisotropy for the application of thermal management in electronic devices.

Ultrasonic Fatigue Damage Behavior of 304L Austenitic Stainless Steel Based on Micro-plasticity and Heat Dissipation

Very high cycle fatigue behavior （107 --109 cycles） of 304L austenitic stainless steel was studied with ultra- sonic fatigue testing system （20 kHz）. The characteristics of fatigue crack initiation and propagation were discussed based on the observation of surface plastic deformation and heat dissipation. It was found that micro-plasticity （slip markings） could be observed on the specimen surface even at very low stress amplitudes. The persistent slip mark- ings increased clearly along with a remarkable process of heat dissipation just before the fatigue failure. By detailed investigation using a scanning electron microscope and an infrared camera, slip markings appeared at the large grains where the fatigue crack initiation site was located. The surface temperature around the fatigue crack tip and the slip markings close to the fracture surface increased prominently with the propagation of fatigue crack. Finally, the cou- pling relationship among the fatigue crack propagation, appearance of surface slip markings and heat dissipation was analyzed for a better understanding of ultrasonic fatigue damage behavior.

A review of soldering by localized heating

In recent years,the rapid development of the new energy industry has driven continuous upgrading of high-density and high-power devices.In the packaging and assembly process,the problem of differentiation of the thermal needs of different modules has become increasingly prominent,especially for small-size solder joints with high heat dissipation in high-power devices.Localized soldering is con-sidered a suitable choice to selectively heat the desired target while not affecting other heat-sensitive chips.This paper reviews several local-ized soldering processes,focusing on the size of solder joints,soldering materials,and current state of the technique.Each localized solder-ing process was discovered to have unique characteristics.The requirements for small-size solder joints are met by laser soldering,microres-istance soldering,and self-propagating soldering;however,laser soldering has difficulty meeting the requirements for large heat dissipation,microresistance soldering requires the application of pressure to joints,and self-propagating soldering requires ignition materials.However,for small-size solder junctions,selective wave soldering,microwave soldering,and ultrasonic soldering are not appropriate.Because the magnetic field can be focused on a tiny area and the output energy of induction heating is large,induction soldering can be employed as a significant trend in future research.

Thin paints for durable and scalable radiative cooling

Passive daytime radiative cooling(PDRC) is environment-friendly without energy input by enhancing the coating's solar reflectance(R_(solar)) and thermal emittance(ε_(LWIR)) in the atmosphere's long-wave infrared transmission window.However,high R_(solar) is usually achieved by increasing the coating's thickness,which not only increases materials' cost but also impairs heat transfer.Additionally,the desired high R_(solar) is vulnerable to dust pollution in the outdoors.In this work,a thin paint was designed by mixing hBN plates,PFOTS,and IPA. R_(solar)=0.963 and ε_(LWIR)=0.927 was achieved at a thickness of 150 μm due to the high backscattering ability of scatters.A high through-plane thermal conductivity(~1.82 W m^(-1) K^(-1)) also can be obtained.In addition,the porous structure coupled with the binder PFOTS resulted in a contact angle of 154°,demonstrating excellent durability under dust contamination.Outdoor experiments showed that the thin paint can obtain a 2.3℃ lower temperature for sub-ambient cooling than the reference PDRC coating in the daytime.Furtherly,the above-ambient heat dissipation performance can be enhanced by spraying the thin paint on a 3D heat sink,which was 15.7℃ lower than the reference 1D structure,demonstrating excellent performance for durable and scalable PDRC applications.

Enhancement of natural convection heat transfer from a fin by triangular perforation of bases parallel and toward its tip

This study examines the heat transfer enhancement from a horizontal rectangular fin embedded with triangular perforations （their bases parallel and toward the fin tip） under natural convection. The fin＇s heat dissipation rate is compared to that of an equivalent solid one. The parameters considered are geometrical dimensions and thermal properties of the fin and the perforations. The gain in the heat transfer enhancement and the fin weight reduction due to the perforations are considered. The study shows that the heat dissipation from the perforated fin for a certain range of triangular perforation dimensions and spaces between perforations result in improvement in the heat transfer over the equivalent solid fin. The heat transfer enhancement of the perforated fin increases as the fin thermal conductivity and its thickness are increased.

Adaptive Extended Isogeometric Analysis for Steady-State Heat Transfer in Heterogeneous Media

Steady-state heat transfer problems in heterogeneous solid are simulated by developing an adaptive extended isogeometric analysis(XIGA)method based on locally refined non-uniforms rational B-splines(LR NURBS).In the XIGA,the LR NURBS,which have a simple local refinement algorithm and good description ability for complex geometries,are employed to represent the geometry and discretize the field variables;and some special enrichment functions are introduced into the approximation of temperature field,thus the computational mesh is independent of the material interfaces,which are described with the level setmethod.Similar to the approximation of temperature field,a temperature gradient recovery technique for heterogeneous media is proposed,and based on the Zienkiewicz–Zhu recovery technique a posteriori error estimator is defined to automatically identify the locally refined regions.The convergence and performance properties of the developed method are verified by using three numerical examples.The numerical results show that(1)The convergence speed of the adaptive local refinement is faster than that of the uniform global refinement;(2)The convergence rate of the high-order basis functions is faster than that of the low-order basis functions;and(3)The existing inclusions change the local distributions of the temperature,and the extreme values of the temperature gradients take place around the inclusion interfaces.

Effects of Sea Spray Evaporation and Dissipative Heating on Intensity and Structure of Tropical Cyclone

To examine effects of sea spray evaporation and dissipative heating on structure and intensity of a real tropical cyclone, the sea spray flux parameterization scheme was incorporated into the fifth-generation Penn- sylvania State University National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model （MM5）. Sensitivity tests were performed with varying the spray source function intensities and with and without dissipation heating. The numerical results indicate that sea spray evaporation increases the interfaeial sensible heat flux, which is increased by 16% for the moderate spray and 47% for the heavy spray, but has little effect on the interfaeial latent heat flux. The net effect of sea spray evaporation is to decrease the total sensible heat flux and to increase the total latent heat flux. The total enthalpy flux is increased by 1% and 12% with moderate and strong spray amounts, respectively. Consistent with these results, the intensity of the tropical cyclone is increased by 5% and 16% in maximum 10-m wind speed, respectively, due to sea spray evapora- tion. Sea spray evaporation and dissipative heating modify the tropical cyclone structure in important but complex ways. The effect of sea spray on the near-surface temperature and moisture depends on the spray amounts and its location within the tropical cyclone. Within the high-wind region of a tropical cyclone, the lower atmosphere becomes cooler and moister due to the evaporation of sea spray. However, the dissipative heating offsets the cooling due to sea spray evaporation, which makes the lower atmosphere warmer.
