KISR acquires new patent in field of nanotechnology
Device capable of making micro & nano-cooling liquids
KUWAIT CITY, March 21, (KUNA): The Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research (KISR) said on Tuesday, that it had obtained a patent from the US Patent Office, as a result of an achievement of scientific pioneer with innovative technology in the field of nanotechnology.
The Research Institute stated in a press release that the patent was obtained by the Energy and Building Research Center affiliated to the institute and registered in the name of Dr. Nasser Al-Sayegh and associate scientific researcher Ali Sayegh.
The statement added that the two researchers have developed an innovative technology, which is a device capable of manufacturing microand nano-cooling liquids and measuring their thermal performance in computers that use them.
Reduce
They operate with liquid coolants to reduce the temperature of the computer’s processing unit and graphics processing unit in their single or multi-format and under their serial or parallel settings.
He explained that the importance of this invention lies in its ability to manufacture advanced micro and nano cooling fluids in a controlled manner, which saves time and avoids human errors for self-production and contributes to reducing the total cost due to the absence of the need for additional external mixing devices to produce such liquids and manpower capable of operating them.
He said that the invention contributes to increasing the efficiency of the cooling system for the current and next generation computers that rely on liquids to cool the processing units used in them, and is environmentally friendly which does not produce any gas emissions.
