Descripción del proyecto
Heat removal and management is a major concern for any technology that deals with high power and small size. Growing energy demands, precision manufacturing, miniaturization, nuclear regulations and critical economies demand high-efficient coolants and lubricants.
Graphene is a major contender to produce high-performance nanofluids given its excellent thermal properties. Thus, IQR has developed stable graphene nanofluids with enhanced thermal properties, suitable for their application in automotive and industry engines.
NanoCooling project is an innovative graphene-based nanofluid to improve the heat exchange capacity in cooling systems for combustion engines. NanoCooling will take advantage of nanofluids based on graphene particles, to re-design and improve existing cooling systems, aiming to develop more efficient and smaller motors. Moreover, these new nanofluids will have great potential for other applications; e.g., heat exchangers and radiators.
The better thermodynamic properties of graphene are transferred to the innovative NanoCooling nanofluid, which will lead to a reduction of power consumption. The use of NanoCooling will allow the creation of new designs for heat exchangers, with more efficient cooling properties.
For the automotive industry, a more efficient thermally conductive nanofluid will enable a reduction of the size and weight of the cooling system; leading the way to enhanced performance, increased fuel economy and higher dynamic response.
