At the 2019 International Microwave Symposium (IMS) Element Six, part of the De Beers Group, launched a new diamond thermal material grade designated Diafilm TM220. Said to be the world’s first diamond thermal material engineered to offer industrial users thermal conductivity in excess of 2200 W/mK, Diafilm TM220 was developed in response to the increasing demand for more … [Read more...]

Towards Green Technology: Modeling of a Compact Plate Heat Exchanger Condenser for Thermosyphon Cooling of Entire High Power Datacenter Racks

 

By Raffaele Luca Amalfi, Ph.D., Jackson Braz Marcinichen, and John Richard Thome, Ph.D. CONTEXT AND NEW COOLING TECHNOLOGY Heat dissipations of servers and their racks in datacenters are reaching ever increasing levels, breaching the economical heat removal limits of traditional air-based cooling technologies. Currently, about 40% to 45% of the total datacenter energy … [Read more...]

Thermal Facts & Fairy Tales: Whatever Happened to the Predicted Data Center Energy Consumption Apocalypse?

 

As the title indicates, since the middle of the last decade, there have been very pessimistic projections regarding the growth of the total annual energy used by data centers in the U.S. One of them suggested that by 2030, the energy consumption in the U.S. in the IT sector would be roughly 60% of that used by its entire industrial sector. [1,2,3] What was the origin of this … [Read more...]
