Cold Plates

Metal foam works like a fin structure to distribute heat away from the base of the cold plate and into the cooling fluid. Unlike fins, however, Duocel® foam structures encourage mixing, disrupting the thermal boundary layer and enhancing thermal performance.

Foam’s unique structure also offers a major advantage for the design and manufacture of conformal cold plates, since fluids can flow through foam in any direction.
