Temperature Monitoring and controlling system using LEA’s Thermoelectric Vapor Chamber (TVC) system
The transition of overhead cables to underground tunnel cables has started to occur in multiple nations around the world.
These power cables exert large amounts of heat while transporting energy, therefore creating a hot environment within the tunnels.
The common system in use to maintain the ambient temperature within these tunnels is the water-cooling chiller system.
Drawbacks of the Water-Cooling Chiller System.
TVC Benefits
- TVC is a non-water system. (No water leakage risk), Safer option.
- Low installation and maintenance cost while the installation space is flexible.
- Easier for installation as it does not require multiple parts to work.
For this application, the water-cooling system has many flaws which LEA’s TVC system can overcome.Flaws of the Chiller system.
- Risk of water leakage.
- High installation and maintenance cost.
- Requires large amounts of installation space for the compressor.
- Multiple parts are necessary in order for the thermal system to function efficiently.
