We are glad to announce that at the International Heat Pipe Conference we are part of the team that has been awarded:
The Don Ernst Award in the technical application paper category
This is for the presentation and paper: Using Loop Heat Pipe solutions, and a dielectric fluid, to cool SiC MOSFET power modules for aircraft systems (Nicolle T., Kapaun F., Lasserre P., Piaud B., Dupont V., Ybanez L.)
Abstract
"In the scope of a technical exploration for an aircraft application four LHPs working with R-1233zd(E) have been designed and adapted to cool the four sides of the two specific double-sided power modules (DSPM). Four air exchangers equipped with fans reject the heat to the air. The present paper discusses the iterative thermal design methodology used to optimize the evaporator wall thickness to the location of the SiC chips on the substrate and the experimental performances of a demonstrator able to transfer up to 170W per MOSFET with an estimated heat flux of 675W/cm² at chip level."

Calyos Comment
Due to the limited budget and short timeframe we had to use off-the-shelf building blocks to create our solution adding additional complexity to this already advanced thermal challenge!

International Heat Pipe Conference WebsiteWho We Are
Calyos is a leader in the design and manufacture of two-phase thermal management systems. Building on our heritage from Euro Heat Pipes (EHP) and their space technology expertise, we specialize in innovative cooling solutions that tackle the thermal challenges of tomorrow.
What We Do
We engineer advanced cooling technologies, including loop heat pipes, micro-channel heat pipes, and pulsating heat pipes, to optimize thermal performance across a variety of applications. Typically these include: power electronics, processors, and batteries, but we don't stop there we are continuing to develop and produce fully customizable solutions for other specific needs, for example e-motors and fuel cells.
Where We Operate
Calyos is headquartered in Charleroi, Belgium, where our engineering and production teams work side by side in a state-of-the-art facility. From this base, we serve a global clientele, providing our cutting-edge solutions across North America, Asia, Europe, and South America.
When We Started
Calyos was incorporated in 2014 as a spin-off from Euro Heat Pipes (EHP), which was established in 2001 and has become a major player in the European satellite market. Since then, Calyos has been adapting and evolving EHP's space-grade cooling technologies for terrestrial applications.
Why We Matter
Our mission is to lead the industry towards adopting the most effective and sustainable thermal management solutions. We aim to address the most pressing thermal challenges in the data-driven and electrified environments of today, leveraging passive cooling technologies to achieve superior efficiency and environmental stewardship.
How We Succeed
Our success is driven by our commitment to four core values:
1. Applied Knowledge - Transforming deep technical expertise into market-ready solutions.
2. Better Together - Emphasizing collaboration with all stakeholders to enhance our collective success.
3. Inherent Flexibility - Adapting our solutions and practices to keep pace with evolving market demands.
4. Continuous Research - Persistently innovating to maintain our leadership in thermal technology.
