CloudSolar Develops Novel Heat Transfer Fluids

CloudSolar's patent pending technology uses stable, non-toxic, and proprietary nanofluid additives to increase the efficiency of many different heat transfer systems.  These fluids are environmentally benign and non-toxic.  They can be added to existing systems without changing the infrastructure.

 

Initially, we developed the CloudSolar black fluid to improve the efficiency of infrared or solar heat capture systems.   We are now in the pre-production and production-ready phases of developing several fluids based on our patent-pending binder technology to improve heat transfer in the following areas:

 

  1. Energy Storage for Hot Water

  2. Temperature Range Reduction in Industrial Tanks

  3. Energy Storage for Cooling Processes

  4. Alternative Biodegradable and Non-Flamable Replacements for Downtherm or Therminol Fluids

  5. Added Heat Capacity and Temperature Buffering in heat Exchanger Loops

  6. Increased Thermal Conductivity Fluids

  7. Magnetically Driven Fluids

Sustainably Meeting Our Challenges

CloudSolar is integrating new ideas from nanotechnology, biotechnology, and colloid science to improve heat transfer fluids. We offer a cost-effective solution for the energy storage industry with our novel and patent-pending phase change fluids. Phase change fluids are capable of storing up to 100% more heat over a 25 degC temperature range. In doing so, pumping costs can be reduced up to 62%, tank surface area can be reduced by 42%. Our fluids are cost effective for tanks up to 1000 gallons in size. We also offer a novel infrared and solar heat capture fluid. Currently, thermal capture from waste heat sources and sunlight requires heating the entire collector area. With CloudSolar fluids, only the fluid part of the collector is heated, improving efficiency. This patent pending approach has been shown by third party validation to collect heat with up to 90% efficiency.
