This new cooling technology will soon replace air conditioners, reducing the temperature of the smartphone you are using
The device is only 5mm thick by graduate students at the University of California and SRI International, but is as capable of cooling as an air conditioner.
On the market today, there are many cool 'cool' devices, but very few of them actually make owners feel cool (cool). And this issue has been made by a University of California engineer in Los Angeles and SRI International with a device that is only 5 millimeters thin, which works no less than a mini fridge.
Air conditioning is about to go into the past.
If you're wondering: 'What the hell do I bring a mini fridge with?' Imagine that you will be able to enjoy the cool air from a compact air conditioner located inside your shoe, hat or clothes. In addition, it also works to cool smartphones, tablets or laptops to avoid overheating and danger.
This technology is based on the electrocaloric effect, which explains how the temperature of the material changes when it is impacted by an electric field. Although it is currently only in the testing phase, this is a very remarkable device. The first prototype is 150 times faster to reduce temperature than the best electrocaloric device today.
In addition, its durability is very high when subjected to more than 30,000 transmission cycles but still works effectively. Scientists have demonstrated the magic use of this device by attaching it to the battery of the Samsung Galaxy G4 at 52.5 degrees Celsius because it has to do many heavy tasks. In just 5 seconds, this 'mini- air conditioner ' made the battery's temperature only 44 degrees.
'Developing a air conditioning system without using coolants - which emits greenhouse gases, is becoming a top priority, as demand for air conditioning in countries around the world is growing. increased, 'said Roy Kornbluh, SRI research engineer.
This device can be used as a cheap refrigerator.
In the future, the goal of this team is to develop many new applications for this technology. For example, they argue that it will become a powerful tool for making low-cost refrigerators for developing countries. Although heat preservation methods are a lot of topics to be discussed, there are not many projects that make refrigerators - mostly because it is difficult to provide enough electricity to run them.
