SSPA of Powder Metallurgy offers consumers submillimeter-thickness steam chambers with a powder capillary structure for cooling electronic components under a manufacturing agreement and is looking for partners interested in a distribution services agreement.

Submillimeter-thick steam chambers with a powder capillary structure ensure stable temperature conditions for the operation of miniature heat-generating elements of modern electronics. The development is included in the Top 10 results of the activities of scientists of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus for 2021 in the field of fundamental and applied research.

Developer and manufacturer - O.V. Roman Powder Metallurgy Institute.

Information is posted in the Album of promising developments of organizations of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus for the real sector of the economy (2023) (in Russian), p. 126-127.

The scope of application is the production of components for new generation computers and smartphones.

Consumers are enterprises that produce components for new generation computers and smartphones.

The development provides for an increase in the energy load and miniaturization of components of new-generation computers and smartphones using thin (0.3–0.4 mm) flat heat pipes (steam chambers), the main functional element of which is a flat powder capillary structure with a thickness of about 0.1 mm.

Advantages: higher heat transport characteristics, thickness is smaller than that of known analogues.

A powder capillary structure with a thickness of about 0.1 mm with optimized structural and geometric parameters allows for a given heat transfer and heat dissipation capacity with minimal thermal resistance.

The manufacturing process of steam chambers is environmentally friendly.

The steam chambers use a powder capillary structure with excellent capillary transport and heat exchange properties. Spacer protrusions are made on the surface of the capillary structure, preventing compression of the steam chamber body by external air pressure and ensuring the return of condensate from the condenser to the evaporator. The maximum thickness of steam chambers can be from 0.3 to 0.4 mm, area up to 200 × 300 mm. Transferred and dissipated heat power is up to 800 W (when using forced convection through heat-dissipating fins), heat flow density in the heating zone is up to 150 W/cm.
