Samsung won a great prize for its new cooling technology

The new generation of Samsung’s Peltiier cooling technology, developed in collaboration with the University of Johns Hopkins’ Applied Physics Laboratory, has received the 100 -year R&D Prize, often referred to as the Nobel Prize in Engineering and Innovation Oscar. The award is awarded by the R&D World magazine and introduces the world’s hundred innovative technologies every year.

Peltiier cooling technology was first unveiled earlier this year in a journal in the journal Nature Communications. Samsung engineers have collaborated with Dr. Rama Venkatasubramanian’s Thermoelectric Research Team and the use of nanotechnology to improve the performance and performance of a platform. Instead of traditional refrigerants that can be harmful to the environment, it uses a semiconductor for cooling.

This research improved the performance of the platform by up to 5 %, while only one -tenth of the material needs one -tenth of the material compared to the previous generation. This feature in the future allows for the manufacture of environmentally friendly, light -hearted cooling devices. In the not too nearby, this technology can be used to cool cars, datacenters, homes, offices and more. It is worth noting that Samsung first used the platform cooling machine in its hybrid refrigerator, which was exhibited last year at the IFA.
