The AutoHeat project will help the industry generate miniature, high efficiency, highly flexible and space-saving 3D-printed heat exchanger modules.

about AutoHeat

AutoHeat was a 2 years project funded under Germany's Agent3D innovation programme, to advance science, standardisation, visibility and adoption potential of Additive Manufacturing. AutoHeat focused on miniature heat exchangers, with the following goals:
create autonomous miniature, high efficiency, flexible, space-saving 3D-printed heat exchanger modules
speed up the CAD construction time by +50% with a software tool to create variations on a basic scalable structure
standardise the 3D printing process through single-machine calibration
identify business cases and use scenarios for multi-functional systems in current and new applications
optimise the technology, cost & environmental potential for HVAC&R, fuell cells and IT hardware cooling
create new industry networks and educational formats for engineers, research and commercial staff

    re-generate supported Fraunhofer IWU (Link) to investigate the potential of 3D-printed miniature heat exchangers in the HVAC&R sector, including their technological, economic and environmental viability. We will look at the entire value chain, from product development, production, new installations and after sales phase. We will also create new educational formats around the newly developed module library and software tool and would like to better understand the industry's needs.

    If you want to benefit from a case study about your current business case for 3D-printed miniature heat exchangers, investigate future application scenarios for the exciting opportunities the technology offers, or simply want to know more about the AutoHeat project, please leave your contact details.
