Cooling Solutions for Mission-Critical Electronics

Discussion of four options for cooling electronic/electrical equipment housed in enclosures and transit cases. These options include thermoelectric air conditioners, compressor-based AC, vortex coolers and air-to-air heat exchangers. Each cooling method is explained and the advantages of thermoelectric air conditioners are examined as compared to the other cooling methods.

Gas Concentration Measurement with Thermal Flow Sensors

Several different sensor solutions exist to measure gas concentrations by means of spectroscopy, electrochemical reactions, thermal conductivity, ultrasonic waves and other methods. In such cases where gas flow and concentration measurement are required simultaneously, a one-sensor-measures-all approach would allow significant cost reduction compared to a two-sensor solution.
