Lancaster, Pennsylvania – June 1, 2011. Advanced Cooling Technologies, Inc. (ACT), a leader in developing thermal technology solutions for commercial, military and aerospace markets, announced today that they will be sponsoring a free webinar:

Practical Thermal Management Solutions:
Heat Pipes: Design Fundamentals & Product Applications.

June 28 at 2pm

Hosted by NASA Tech Briefs.

“Heat Pipes provide passive, reliable heat transfer and heat spreading for many applications.  With the trend of smaller device footprint and increasing power density, we see the need for them increasing”, according to Scott Garner, Vice President of ACT’s Electronic Products Group.  The goal of the 30 minute webinar is to provide design engineers with straight forward, practical information about heat pipes.  The webinar will cover both real examples of heat pipe solutions and design guidelines for when to consider using them.

“Over the course of many years we have developed a wealth of experience about when and how to use heat pipes.  We think this information could be of value to product design engineers faced with thermal issues”, Garner concluded.

About ACT

ACT specializes in advanced thermal technology development and custom thermal product manufacturing. ACT designs and manufactures heat pipes, pumped liquid and two-phase loops and thermal storage devices for customers in aerospace, electronics, temperature calibration and government R&D sectors.

ACT’s team consists of personnel with established track records in technology development, commercialization and production. Many of them were involved in pioneering work on heat pipes, loop heat pipes and other two-phase heat transfer devices. They are the inventors/co-inventors on more than sixty U.S. and international patents and the authors/co-authors of more than three hundred fifty scientific publications.

ACT’s facility measures more than 30,000 square feet, including office, laboratory and manufacturing spaces. It is capable of performing complex design, analysis, manufacture and testing work including CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics), FEA (Finite Element Analysis), 3-D solid modeling, vacuum processing, high temperature materials processing, and high heat flux testing. This facility has produced thermal hardware with the following operating ranges:

• Temperatures: from -150 to 1,100°C.
• Pressures: from 10-9 torr to 10,000psi.
• Heat fluxes: to 1,500W/cm2.
• Heat load: from less than 1W to 540kW.

ACT is certified to AS9100-B standards for aerospace applications and ISO 9001:2008 standards for terrestrial applications.
