A heat exchange structure is provided, including a primary face provided with non-through holes formed in said face, the inner surface of the holes and the surface of said primary face outside the holes being covered with nanoparticles, the inside of the holes having a non-wettability property relative to a given liquid and the surface of the face between the holes having a wettability property relative to the liquid.

Heat exchange structure and cooling device comprising such a structure

A dual air flow exchanger, enabling heat transfer and humidity transfer between two air flows, and including a plurality of air circulation networks stacked on each other along a stacking direction and separated in pairs by membranes permeable to water vapor and impermeable to air. At least one of the networks is made from a honeycomb structure with its two sides bearing on two of the membranes, the structure including cylindrical cells with axes parallel to the direction, and in which at least some of the cell faces are perforated to allow air passage.

Dual air flow exchanger with enhanced heat and humidity transfers

A radiator for domestic heating with a heat-transfer fluid operating in two-phase form includes a reservoir of the heat-transfer fluid; a hot source, intended to raise the temperature of the heat-transfer fluid to a temperature such that it causes said fluid to undergo a change of phase; and a heater, at which the heat transfer with ambient air takes place, having n channels, communicating in a lower zone with the reservoir, it being possible for n to be equal to 1. The heat-transfer fluid is a mixture of at least two different heat-transfer liquids, the heat-transfer liquids having between them boiling points differing by at least ten degrees Celsius, and the liquid with the lowest boiling point representing 70% to 95% of the volume of the mixture for a mixture temperature of about 20&#xb0; C.
