Conventional cooling techniques such as fans and heat sinks do not work as well with the 3D technology, particularly as heat has to be drawn away from between the individual chips.
The Kers system stores energy that would otherwise be wasted as heat during braking, then reapplies it during acceleration to provide a boost in power, controlled from the cockpit by the driver.

Antigenics focuses on a class of chaperones known as heat-shock proteins (HSP), first studied in this regard by Pramod Srivastava, a cofounder of Antigenics and a cancer specialist at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine, in Farmington.
They can carry five to 20 times more current in the same unit area while reducing the amount of energy lost as heat by 75-97% (depending on whether the current is alternating or direct), even after accounting for all the nitrogen-cooling paraphernalia.
The lack of any significant let up in the blistering conditions is a concern, authorities say, because the effects of heat can be cumulative -- so the longer you experience it, the more likely you are to experience conditions such as heat stroke, dehydration and the like.
Similarly, if you are self employed or running a furnished holiday letting business and you are using a room at home as an office, it should be possible to claim a tax deduction for some of the house running expenses such as heat, light, business use of telephone, painting and decorating, etc.
