Heat dissipation coating to effectively manage thermal energy for a global leader in the wire and cable industry
Client Introduction:
A global leader in the wire and cable industry, headquartered in Italy, drives the energy transition and digital transformation. They specialize in delivering advanced cable solutions, leveraging state-of-the-art technology to address the industry’s evolving demands.
Problem:
Our client, committed to sustainable energy solutions, aims to enhance the efficiency of the power grid, optimize energy utilization, and reduce their overall carbon footprint associated with energy distribution.
In the field of wire and cable technology, effectively managing thermal energy is always a concern. The heat generated by cables and wires during electricity transmission leads to overheating and potential cable degradation. This issue not only compromises the reliability and longevity of electrical systems but also poses safety risks.
How Novota Helped?
Addressing these challenges requires innovative solutions (E3X technology) without compromising the electrical performance or the structural integrity of overhead conductors. Finding a balance between thermal management, cost-effectiveness, and scalability was crucial to meet the evolving demands of effective transmission.
Following extensive research, Novota developed an innovative high-emissivity ceramic coating, HeatXperse – a specialty functional coating. It utilizes Novota’s patented technology, which is built on advanced heat dissipation principles.
During the project, Novota overcame several challenges, including maintaining a thin and easily applicable ceramic coating. Another major obstacle was applying the coating to overhead wires, which necessitated a collaborative effort to resolve. By harnessing collective expertise and innovative strategies, Novota successfully overcomes these hurdles, ensuring the effective implementation of our technology across diverse applications in power transmission and distribution networks.
