Summary

Thermal management is becoming more challenging due to the increasing compactness and computational power of processors. While various cooling technologies like thermoelectric cooling, heat pipes, and liquid cooling methods exist, vapour-compression technologies demonstrate the highest power density. However, this technology is not yet sufficiently developed for small-scale systems that generate large amount of heat, such as micro- and power-electronics. In this review, we present technology trends of the development of efficient small-scale compressors used in vapour-compression systems. They are compared in terms of mechanical and isentropic efficiencies, and COP. Challenges associated with miniature compressors in vapour-compression systems will be presented and discussed to provide guidelines for future research and development.
