Application of CERATOM® technology means quality new opportunities offered by thermal electricity
To outcomes of state-of-the-art innovations implemented by TERMIONA in field of thermal electricity may be referred sustainability to vibrations and mechanical impacts, simple installation, the opportunity to integrate heat exchanger directly into the available system and, of course, high performance factor of devices manufactured with the use of our new generation non-ceramic thermoelectric systems.
CERATOM® technology is based on application of specific novelty material with no analogs at the contemporary international thermal electricity market. Such material is represented by ceramic-like CERATOM® layer developed by TERMIONA company.
When producing ceramic-like CERATOM® layer that is the base of our main heat-conducting system we apply more than 10 proprietary TERMIONA know-hows. Our layers allow to produce thermoelectric systems of new generation with nanostructured composite heat passage lines opening for thermal electricity the completely new market segments. Active semi-conductive structure is mechanically disengaged from heat transfer sections thus allowing to remove heat load from active thermoelectric structure and carry over thereof on the aluminum heat-conducting plates without any destructive impact of the linear material expansion effect.
Minimization of thickness of CERATOM® ceramic-like layer provides its high sustainability in respect of any mechanical impacts whatsoever. The point is that thickness of ceramic layer in the new generation TERMIONA thermoelectric modules is 10 times less that the thickness of an ordinary thermoelectric module ceramic lamina. When creating active module structure technologies of setting up multi-layer coatings are applied that provide sufficient reliability and durability of the entire structure thereof, the efficient functioning of our non-ceramic thermoelectric system inclusive.
CERATOM® technology offers also some quality new opportunities, such as:
- making use of thermoelectric systems under vibration conditions;
- making use of thermoelectric systems in environment that presumes any mechanical impacts whatsoever, such as shocks, drops and shaking;
- possibility of a maximum simple adaptation of our devices within the frameworks of any multi-layer generating systems;
- creation of thermoelectric systems with high power on one structure, e.g. 180 W cooling power for one-modular system 40x40 mm with liquid cooling;
- creation of single-stack systems of big sizes - up to 400x300 mm with unlimited number of stages due to the lack of ceramic
laminae;
- considerable simplification of assembling methods owing to fastening modules without any additional installation structures, and the possibility to drill installation holes directly in system body thus allowing to use even the simple screw fasteners;
- opportunity to inbuilt heat exchangers directly in the relevant thermoelectric system as an integral part thereof;
- growth of limit performance opportunities offered by thermoelectric components, and
- improvement of heat resistance of blocking layer.
