Steadily increasing demand for data storage from processing applications and online websites has contributed to increased data center power consumption for more than a decade [1]. For example, the worldwide power consumption of data centers in the year 2005 was twice that of the consumption in the year 2000. By 2010 this increased by a further 56% to constitute 1.3% of global … [Read more...]
Keeping Electric Aircraft Motors and Electronics Cool Without Resorting to Extra Mass and Complexity
Hybrid-electric and all-electric airplanes under study by NASA, such as the X-57 Maxwell, could operate more efficiently if the overall system was better at getting rid of heat. (Source: NASA) Future hybrid-electric and all-electric airplanes will use distributed electric propulsion (DEP), relying on multiple electric motors rather than a single or handful of jet fuel-based … [Read more...]
New Cooling Plate Said to Dramatically Increase the Lifetime of High Temperature Electronics
Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials is first to develop a TGP that operates in any direction, improving cooling efficiency by modifying the surface of a porous structure. During the past decade, developments in semiconductor industries have allowed electronics such as sensors and actuators to be miniaturized so as to perform effectively in a limited space. As a … [Read more...]

Three Thermal Simulation & Test Innovations for Electronics Equipment Design
Over the last 50 years, the automotive industry has been going through huge shifts in electrification (Figure 1). And, of course, we are seeing the electric motor starting to replace the mechanical engine with the advent of Electric & Hybrid vehicles. Not surprisingly, the demand for ever higher density in a confined electronics leads to a greater and greater need to … [Read more...]
