  • Publication number: 20220407136
    Abstract: A battery cooling device is mounted on a vehicle and includes a thermosiphon type battery cooling circuit, a temperature control device, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit executes, after a circulation stop condition is satisfied, vapor phase temperature rise control for controlling the temperature control device and raising a temperature of a vapor phase side in the battery cooling circuit such that a liquid surface level of a battery cooling refrigerant reaches a level at which circulation of the battery cooling refrigerant is able to be started when the circulation of the battery cooling refrigerant is not started and the liquid surface level is not at the level at which the circulation is able to be started.

  • Patent number: 8187958
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of processing a substrate and a method of manufacturing a silicon carbide (SiC) substrate in which, when annealing processing is performed on a crystalline silicon carbide (SiC) substrate, the occurrence of surface roughness is suppressed. A substrate processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a step of performing plasma irradiation on a single crystal silicon carbide (SiC) substrate (1) and a step of performing high temperature heating processing on the single crystal silicon carbide (SiC) substrate (1) in which the plasma irradiation is performed.
