Brief about

Thermal Acoustics


Thermal acoustics is a field of study that focuses on the interaction between heat and sound. It explores how temperature changes can affect the propagation of sound waves and how sound waves can influence thermal processes. This field has applications in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, and energy, where understanding the thermal and acoustic behavior of materials and systems is crucial for their design and performance. Overall, thermal acoustics is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from thermodynamics, acoustics, and materials science to study the complex interplay between heat and sound.

Cutting Edge Technology


NASA’s Glenn Research Center has conducted extensive research on thermal acoustic engines and has developed several prototypes for testing and evaluation. The technology is still in the experimental stage, and further research is needed to determine its practical applications and potential benefits.

Linear Alternator

A linear alternator is a device that converts linear motion into electrical energy. It works by using a magnet and a coil to generate an alternating current as the magnet moves back and forth within the coil.

Custom Valve

The valve is designed to regulate the temperature of a unit by allowing hot air to escape. As the hot air escapes, the remaining air inside the tube cools down and falls back into the unit, creating a continuous cycle.

Versatile Connections

Triclamp fittings and clamps are highly versatile and can be used in a wide range of applications. They are easy to install, disassemble, and clean, making them a popular choice for a number of industries.
