Higher heat removal with greater design flexibility
Parker Aerospace advanced thermal management technologies, including next-generation SprayCool® multi-platform enclosures (MPE) and liquid flow-through components, offer revolutionary heat collection and heat rejection systems for unparalleled design flexibility.
UAV aircraft like Northrop Grumman’s RQ-4 Global Hawk rely on SprayCool® thermal management technology for electronics cooling in unpressurized space.
SprayCool® direct spray cooling
Using a non-conductive, non-corrosive liquid applied directly to electronics, SprayCool® technology removes heat via a forced convection and phase change from liquid to vapor. The closed-loop system isolates electronics from harsh environments. This enables the flexible selection of all electronics (commercial, industrial, and ruggedized), and offers efficient and low system-cost performance, within a ruggedized environment.
Multiple unmanned aerial vehicles, Black Hawk helicopter, and ground mobile platforms like the Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV) and Medium Extended Air Defense System (MEADS) use SprayCool® enclosures to enable both current and next-generation electronics.
Liquid flow-through cooling
Our macrolamination technology enables new levels of flexibility and thermal efficiency for liquid flow-through chassis, flow-through modules, and coldplates. Focused cooling locates coolant only where it is needed, considerably reducing size, weight, and power. Liquid flow-through systems enable the use of conduction-cooled electronics in extended temperature environments, creating more computing throughput or higher-powered electronics in smaller packages for military, aerospace, industrial, and commercial applications.
These systems provide the flexibility of local or remote heat rejection, operating with many thermal fluids common to aircraft and ground vehicles.
Liquid Cooled Enclosures
Enclosure solutions include multiple-platform liquid-cooled platform enclosures (MPE) that offer two-phase evaporative cooling via direct spray di-electric fluid technology as well as liquid-cooled enclosures that can supply cooling with a single-loop fluid system and macrolaminate cold plate side walls.
Cold Plates
The unique manufacturing process allows an aluminum, multi-layer construction as thin as 0.080 inch. Single-phase or two-phase cooling is achieved using a wide range of dielectric (e.g. PAO/fluorocarbon) and non-dielectric (e.g. EGW/PGW) fluids.
Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers manufactured utilizing Parker Aerospace's macrolaminate technology offer increased thermal performance for given envelope, complex flow circuits, conformal geometries, and enable dual-thermal and structural functions.
Aerospace coolers
Parker Aerospace's thermal management solutions include macrolaminate-technology heat exchangers that offer increased thermal performance for specified envelopes and feature complex flow circuits, conformal geometries, and dual thermal and structural functions.
Liquid-cooled chassis with integrated heat collection & rejection
Rugged 8U enclosure incorporating a liquid-cooled one air transport rack (ATR) form-factor chassis. The enclosure provides a closed-loop fluid management system and a liquid-to-air heat exchanger.

eVTOL System Needs for Thermal Management
Upstart and established aerospace companies are competing to launch electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles for the purpose of realizing the promise of less congested means of transportation and zero emissions offered by the urban air mobility (UAM) business model.
As the development of these aircraft continues to heat up, the need to cool the thermal loads generated by vehicle propulsion and battery systems comes into sharpened focus.
