Thermofluidics’ single-concentric NIFTE delivers 810L/h at 7m head (equivalent to 15.5W hydraulic power after losses and approximately 21W brake power) with around 1000W of heat input at 90ºC.
Thermofluidics’ single-concentric NIFTE delivers 810L/h at 7m head (equivalent to 15.5W hydraulic power after losses and approximately 21W brake power) with around 1000W of heat input at 90ºC.
Thermofluidics’ high-head ‘modified-concentric’ NIFTE prototype is completed as assembly work begins on our modular plate-heat-exchanger NIFTE prototype – aimed at a modular solution that will beat our interim target for the Wellcome Trust.
Thermofluidics announces the Single-Acting Hydraulic Ram (SAHR) pump – a derivative of the DAHR pump optimised for deep-well water lifting where little or no additional surface pressure is required.
Thermofluidics announces the successful implementation of a ‘nifting valve’ into its DAHR technology, providing a complete long-term solution to deep well water lifting with low pressure oscillating power sources without sliding seals.
Thermofluidics successfully demonstrates a DAHR with 80% efficiency at up to 70W hydraulic power output, proving the technology’s potential as a deep-lift add-on for a human-powered treadle pump.
Thermofluidics finishes riverbank survey and delivers a complete design draft of a 4L/s valved solar-powered pumping engine prototype.
Terry Horsnell joins the Thermofluidics team as an electrical and software engineer.
Thermofluidics begins the second phase of a two-phase project to develop and install a valved solar-powered pumping engine prototype for topping load river drainage in collaboration with the U.K. Environment Agency.
Bart Stockman joins the Thermofluidics team as a full-time site engineer. Bart now runs our U.K. based field trials full time.
Thermofluidics announces a contract with The Wellcome Trust to develop an innovative, low cost irrigation pump to improve the health of smallholders in the developing world – press release here.
