Modern unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and military aircraft carry advanced electronics and equipment critical to their successful operation. While innovation is carrying airborne technologies farther and higher than ever before, current avionic cooling practices cannot keep up with the immense heat generated by modern electronics.

To address the limitations of traditional cooling methods, aerospace & defense manufacturers have turned to liquid cooling solutions.

Liquid cooling presents its own thermal challenges, and ThermOmegaTech’s thermostatic 3-Way Thermal Bypass Valve (TBV) is an efficient and effective method to control avionics cooling systems.

Our 3-Way TBVs are used to precisely maintain coolant fluid recirculation temperature within a narrow and pre-defined “goldilocks” range to promote system efficiency by sending coolant to a cooler only when it has sufficiently increased in temperature, thereby reducing overall system wear and minimizing warm-up times.
