  • SMA stack structure for improved heat transfer and structural stability
    Patent number: 12729668
    Abstract: The present application relates to a superelastic SMA structure, with enhanced power density and compressive stability, comprising two or more connected plate sections to form an overall substantially closed perimeter, wherein the structure comprises an opening positioned in the centre of the structure, and wherein the connected plate sections are dimensioned with a circular symmetry to allow a stacking assembly, and wherein each section includes an array of hollow perforated cells formed between one or more thin vertical walls of a thickness within a predefined range of values, and wherein at least one perforated cell defines a fluid passageway within a predefined range of hydraulic diameter values.
    Type: Grant
