Abstract
Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) is one of the newest ways to light up outdoor areas such as streets, stadiums, airports, military bases, harbors, and high mast towers. The main reason for the high focus is power consumption with better brightness. Even though LEDs have so many benefits, researchers should focus on better managing temperatures as the main reason behind the failure of LEDs is overheating. In this article, modern research trends like using heat pipes filled with nanofluids, ionic winds, spray cooling, use of fins, refrigerants, and oil cooling are focused on and discussed concerning LEDs, solar stills, electric vehicle batteries, and different heat transfer devices to develop a new way to handle the heat from higher-wattage LEDs. There is a research thrust in the field of more than one nanoparticle in the base fluid, and its proportions are not analyzed during LEDs cooling study using a heat pipe. It is necessary to control the heat using a more effective technique. Heat pipe with nanofluid is a more efficient, compact, and cost-effective cooling device o reduce LED failure due to higher heat flux. Hence, it is promising to use nanofluid-filled heat pipes to serve the purpose of the life span enhancement of LEDs.
