Thermavance Seat cooling and heating system

Description

How it works?

The adaptable and durable design of the Thermavance personal climate control system revolutionizes human scaled climate control through conductive heat, rather than convective heat transfer. With this technology, Watercraft can be remotely activated to pre-heat or pre-cool depending on the time of day you plan on going out on the water. All Thermavance components are developed to be ntolerant of marine environments including resistant to water, salt, mold, and algae.

Applications

The unique Thermavance design makes it a natural fit
for all Watercraft in the marine industry.
• Fishing Boats
• Sport Boats
• Recreational Boats
• Yachts
• Jet Ski’s

It can also be used in the non-marine industry:
• Motorcycle
• Off-Road Vehicles
• ATV’s
• Side-by-Side (UTV)
• Outdoor Seating
• Stadium Seating

The Technology

Promethient’s Thermavance™ system allows for the cooling and heating of a person via direct thermal conduction. Heat is pumped from the person, cooling them, or heat is pumped to the person, warming them. Thermavance is a patented system that was developed by Charles Cauchy, an internationally recognized expert in thermoelectric device design, manufacturing and applications. Thermavance combines solid state heat pumping provided by a thermoelectric device and couples it with thermally conductive, flexible, and lightweight graphene water. All Thermavance components are developed to be tolerant of marine environments including resistant to water, salt, mold, and algae.

Heating & cooling

Thermoelectric Devices and the Peltier Effect. Solid state heat pumping is accomplished with a specialized semiconductor called a thermoelectric device, or “TED.” TED’s use the flow of electrons to create the Peltier Effect within the semiconductor. The Peltier Effect is created at the junction of P and N type semiconductor elements that are laminated between two ceramic plates. With the application of a voltage and the flow of current, one plate will heat and the opposing plate will cool. When the polarity of the applied voltage is reversed, the heat flow will reverse.

Transferring heat

Graphene Nanotechnology. To transfer heat to and from the thermoelectric device, Thermavance uses graphene as a thermal conduit. Graphene is comprised entirely of carbon characterized by a molecular structure featuring a flat layer of carbon atoms. Graphene exhibits a high level of thermal conductivity that is greater than that of copper. Moreover, graphene is lightweight and flexible facilitating its use in surfaces that must be flexible and able to conform to the human body.

Stay comfortable on the water

Whether you are an avid fisherman, an experienced sailor, or a casual boater, Thermavance’s personal climate control system is in place to keep you comfortable and content on the water. Our innovative energy technology ensures that your seats stay cool on hot summer days and warm on those chilly mornings and evenings.
