Thermacore’s Therma-Base vapor chamber is used as the base of a heat sink to alleviate spreading resistance found in solid heat sink construction, which enables lower device temperature and greater component reliability. The chamber features effective thermal conductivity over 5,000 W/mK; application improvement of over 30% in high-flux, poor spreading applications; and over … [Read more...]
Electronic Temperature Control Cabinet Cooler System Now CE Compliant
EXAIR’s digital ETC (Electronic Temperature Control) Cabinet Cooler® System keeps electrical enclosures cool while minimizing compressed air use. Independent laboratory tests now certify that the ETC™ is CE compliant to assure safe operation in a wide range of cooling applications. The ETC accurately maintains a constant temperature in the electrical enclosure that is slightly … [Read more...]
Austrian Company Acquires Electronic Component Producers
Miba, a partner to the international engine and automotive industry, has acquired two Austrian producers of power electronics components such as resistors and cooling systems for power electronics. EBG, based in Styria, Austria, is a specialist in passive electronic components, such as high-voltage, high-performance resistors, and generates annual sales of €30 million. DAU is … [Read more...]
Nanofluid Tapped to Cool Servers
Scientists at Sweden's Institute of Technology have developed a nanofluid solution that could eventually be used to cool massive data centers and server farms. Researcher Mamoun Muhammed told CNN that his team had experimented with various nanoparticles, but the ones currently showing the most potential are oxides of metals such as zinc and copper. However, carbon nanotubes are … [Read more...]
Graphite Foam Promises Longer-Lasting LEDs
A new graphite foam cooling system developed at the US Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Tennessee may soon allow LED lamps to go much longer between fixture replacements. The graphite foam works by passively wicking heat away from the lamp via its lightly packed, open skeletal structure – and given that a 10-degree decrease in operating temperature … [Read more...]
