Portage storage containers including controlled evaporative cooling systems are described herein. In some embodiments, a portable container including an integral controlled evaporative cooling system includes: a storage region, an evaporative region adjacent to the storage region, a desiccant region adjacent to the outside of the container, and an insulation region positioned between the evaporative region and the desiccant region. A vapor conduit with an attached vapor control unit has a first end within the evaporative region and a second end within the desiccant region. In some embodiments, the controlled evaporative cooling systems are positioned in a radial configuration within the portable container.本發明是關於一種具整合受控冷卻的可擕式容器,包括:儲存區域,在儲存區域附近的蒸發區域,在容器的外部附近的乾燥劑區域,以及位於蒸發區域和 乾燥劑區域之間的絕緣區域。具有連接的蒸氣控制單元的蒸氣管道具有在蒸發區域內的第一端和在乾燥劑區域內的第二端。 在一些實施方式中,受控的蒸發冷卻系統以徑向配置定位在可擕式容器內。
