Oxford nanoSystems Ltd (OnS) is a high-tech start-up that has developed a unique coating technology to improve the efficiency of heat transfer. OnS was founded in 2012 and has spent the past 6 years developing nanoFLUX -- a nano-coating which dramatically improves the efficiency of two-phase heat-exchangers such as evaporators. Up to now, OnS has focused on the air conditioning and refrigeration markets, whose primary benchmark is to reduce the evaporator size to save environmentally damaging refrigerants and reduce production costs.The world-wide thermal management market is huge (\> 9.6 B$) and of key interest to OnS. Looking into future applications Oxford nanoSystems acknowledges the EU's drive for higher energy efficiency in data centres. One of the largest problems is the inefficiency of the cooling system. Improving these cooling systems, for example in data centres or in electric cars is a clear target when it comes to reaching the new climate goals as reaffirmed by the Katowice Climate Conference 2018\.In this project Oxford nanoSystems will study their newly developed microFLUX technology to develop a fully functional electronic cooling unit. With microFLUX, OnS has the unique opportunity to develop a hyper-effective system that will revolutionize the high powered electronics cooling markets.

Oxford nanoSystems Ltd（OnS）是一家高科技初创企业，开发了一种独特的涂层技术，以提高传热效率。OnS成立于2012年，在过去的6年里一直致力于开发nanoFLUX --一种纳米涂层，可显著提高蒸发器等两相热交换器的效率。迄今为止，OnS一直专注于空调和制冷市场，其主要基准是减小蒸发器尺寸以节省对环境有害的制冷剂并降低生产成本。全球热管理市场巨大（\> 9.6 B$），是OnS的主要兴趣所在。展望未来的应用，牛津纳米系统公司承认欧盟在数据中心提高能源效率的努力。最大的问题之一是冷却系统的效率低下。改进这些冷却系统，例如在数据中心或电动汽车中，是实现2018年卡托维兹气候会议重申的新气候目标的明确目标。在该项目中，牛津纳米系统公司将研究其新开发的microFLUX技术，以开发功能齐全的电子冷却装置。通过microFLUX，OnS有机会开发一种超高效的系统，这将彻底改变高功率电子冷却市场。
