Thermal fluids are used to alleviate wear on
components and tools and for machining operations like stamping and drilling, medical therapy and diagnosis, biopharmaceuticals, air conditioning, fuel cells, power transmission systems, solar cells, micro - and
nanoelectronic mechanical systems and cooling systems for everything from engines to nuclear reactors.
In addition to the three existing partnerships, two overlapping JTIs for so - called embedded systems (ARTEMIS) and
nanoelectronics (ENIAC) will be merged into one program for electronic
components and systems.
