Everything about Radiator
Type of heat exchanger; radiant body through water or other liquids
A radiator is a heat exchanger used to transfer thermal energy from one medium to another for the purpose of cooling and heating. The majority of radiators are constructed to function in cars, buildings, and electronics. Wikipedia →

A review of progress in thermophotovoltaic generation of electricityfnafnaI began writing this paper immediately after the Third nrel Conference on Thermophotovoltaic Genertion of materials, devices, and systems; substantial gains in fundamental understanding and performance of the quaternary alloy GaInAsSb; the introduction of new radiator concepts; and more attention being paid to modeling of both real and conceptual systems. There was also further evidence of interest in non-military applications, particularly from the European and Japanese attendees.
