Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancing the thermosiphon-driven discharge of a latent heat thermal storage system used in a personal cooling device
Rohit Dhumane,Anne Mallow,Yiyuan Qiao,Kyle R. Gluesenkamp,Samuel Graham,Samuel Graham,Jiazhen Ling,Reinhard Radermacher +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the impact of graphite foam density on the discharge rate of a phase change material (PCM) was investigated by using a Modelica-based transient model of the thermosiphon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving system performance of a personal conditioning system integrated with thermal storage
Rohit Dhumane,Yiyuan Qiao,Jiazhen Ling,Jan Muehlbauer,Vikrant Aute,Yunho Hwang,Reinhard Radermacher +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, an innovative personal conditioning system called Roving comforter (RoCo) comprises of a miniature vapor compression cycle (VCC), storing its condenser heat in a phase change material (PCM) thermal storage with helical refrigerant tubes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Portable personal conditioning systems: Transient modeling and system analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a novel concept of Portable Personal Conditioning System (PPCS), which includes a cooling system on an automated platform, which follows occupants to keep them comfortable.
Patent
Comfort units and systems, methods, and devices for use thereof
Reinhard Radermacher,Vikrant Aute,Yunho Hwang,Jiazhen Ling,Jelena Srebric,Jan Muehlbauer,Rohit Dhumane,Yilin Du,Daniel Alejandro Dalgo Reyes,Nicholas W. Mattise +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a customizable microenvironment can be created around a user to maintain a comfortable temperature and humidity level using a comfort unit, which can dynamically respond to the determined comfort level and adjust the microenvironment to improve the user's comfort level.
Transient Modeling of a Thermosiphon based Air Conditioner with Compact Thermal Storage: Modeling and Validation
TL;DR: In this paper, a miniature battery-powered vapor compression cycle (VCC) system fitted on a remote-controlled robotic platform was designed to operate as a VCC during cooling mode and as a thermosiphon during recharge mode.
