Technological Advancement

Question : Discuss about the Techological Advancement ? Answer : Introducation At the helm of the highest beneficiaries of technological advancement is the field of electronics. The latest models of electronic appliances are continually released in the market with the proceeding brands being better versions of their predecessor. Ranging from increasing the safety of the users from theft to making the user's life simpler, technological inventions in electronics have tremendously improved the life of man. Unfortunately, there have minimum considerations concerning human health as the inventions progress. Most of these inventions are coming out to be more hazardous and unsafe to the users comparatively to the preceding inventions. A lot of focus is given to increasing the processing power of the device while decreasing the sizes, thereby leaving a small surface area for heat transfer and dissipation. Poor dissipation and heat transfer from such devices may result in health complications and such conditions as cancer. Increased processing power results in a significant increase in the energy consumption of an electronic device. The amount of energy input in a device is equal to the energy output in a device assuming there are no energy interactions within the device. The available mechanisms to facilitate heat loss in electronic devices are not sufficiently usable for massive appliances and at the same time involving additional costs to improve their efficiency. For example, while using conduction and radiation as the cooling mechanism; the power device should be fitted with heat sinks which would conduct the heat to the outside. The rate of dissipation and transfer of heat has become a stumbling block in the performance of numerous electronic devices thereby evoking the need to find effective methods of cooling that would ensure the electronic component can adequately serve it purpose. Fears of side effects from heat dissipation should be curbed to achieve maximum usability. Following the aforementioned shortcomings of the available heat transfer mechanisms, 3D printing structures tend to be better alternatives. This new technology also commonly referred to as additive manufacturing comes with a package of that can solve the existing problem to a greater extent. Through such advantages as flexibility and ability to manufacture complicated devices at minimum cost, 3D printing ensures a boost in the efficiency of heat transfer and dissipation as well as maintaining a maximum capacity of usage of the device. Scope and Objective The scope of this study is to demonstrate an innovative and advanced approach to manufacturing highly complex components and filigree using laser beam melting. This article synthesizes the freedom of the laser beam melting technology in the manufacture of unique and complex components of structures. Also demonstrated is the ability of laser beam melting to allow speedy and tool-less production of superior components within the shortest time possible. At the end of the study, it will be analyzed and concluded that additive manufacture/ 3D printing provides structures and components which have superior characteristics in comparison with conventional manufacturing methods. The study gives an opportunity for the production and development of an individual heat transfer component that is to be used in an electrically driven race car. This development would ascertain the originality of the study thereby fulfilling the creativity requirements of the task. References Chen, P. (2008).
