Online, October 7, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Advanced Thermal Solutions, Inc., (ATS), is now officially in "active" status with the United States Federal Government's System for Award Management (SAM). The System for Award Management (SAM) is the Official U.S. Government system that consolidated the capabilities of CCR/FedReg, ORCA, and EPL, for vendors doing business with the Federal government.
ATS has already received several contracts with the US Government and expects to expand its current role in the military, defense, and aerospace markets. Military electronics systems include communications, weapons, reconnaissance, targeting and evasion, delivery and functionality. Power dissipation in these devices is at an all-time high and thermal management is becoming even more of a critical issue. Along with power and heat challenges, engineers must factor in remote locations, rough handling and temperature extremes, in which systems must continue to function reliably. Further, many military systems require small form factors leaving less room for conventional heat dissipation solutions.
ATS has continued to expand in the COTS industry because of its expertise in resolving thermal challenges through its consulting services, cooling solutions, and thermal test instruments. Most recently, the CWT-107 open loop wind tunnel was sold to the United States Navy for use in their Research & Development labs. The CWT-107™ is a research quality wind tunnel designed for multiple PCB and component level testing. It is used in air flow characterization and flow visualization, thermal resistance measurements and generation of P-Q curves. The large test section (24" x 24" x 7") is designed to accommodate multiple PCBs, as seen in a typical ATCA chassis. The wind tunnel can also be used to characterize different heat sink sizes for natural and forced convection cooling. Additionally, multiple heat sinks can be tested side by side to determine their thermal performance in the same environment.
