- Mimicking the Body's Circulatory Air Conditioning Could Keep Airplanes, Cars and Computers Cooler
  
  October 31, 2019
  The complex network of veins that keeps us cool during the heat of summer has inspired engineers to create novel thermal management systems. But replicating the circulatory system, in form or function, has been no easy task. Recently, a team of researchers from Drexel University and North Carolina State University created a computer program that could be key to mimicking the body’s evolution-optimized cooling system in functional materials.
