Heat transfer.

Isobar heat pipe technology is described in the company's latest brochure. Isobar super-thermal conductors are based on heat pipe technology and have been in use in heat transfer and thermal linearization applications in production environments for over 20 years, according to the literature. Isobar heat transfer technology can be incorporated into any application involving the management of thermal energy. Information presented in this brochure focuses on applications in the fields of rubber and thermosetting elastomer molding and processing. Enhancing thermal conductivity and heat distribution is said to offer substantial benefits to molders in terms of improved cycle times, cure rates, mold temperature uniformity, startup times and recovery rate. Isobar super-thermal conductors, used in conjunction with Isoplatens, permit each core molding surface to be held at the optimum uniform molding temperature and provide high thermal efficiency, according to the literature. The Isoplaten's unique thermal uniformity permits the use of one single-zone temperature controller for the entire platen. No special multizone controls and multiple thermocouplers are required. Superthermal Isobars conduct heat up to 20,000 times better than tool steel.
