Since the introduction of CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture, an acronym that is no longer in practice) in 2007, hundreds of millions of computers with CUDA parallel architecture-capable GPUs, or graphics processing units, have been shipped. If you have a gaming desktop, laptop with Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card or Nvidia Shield, you are most likely familiar with … [Read more...]
Low Cost Plastic Films Lower Exposed Surface Temperatures by 10°C
Low-emissivity (Low-E) films are not new –they represent a mature technology in which a metal-oxide coated surface emits low levels of radiant thermal energy. Low-E films are widely used on window glasses in energy-efficient buildings. Low-E materials include metals like Aluminum foil which has a thermal emissivity /absorptance of 0.03 which means that it reflects 97 percent of … [Read more...]
Case Study: Thermal Design and Analysis of a Combat-Ready Electronics Unit
INTRODUCTION Militaries continue to expand their use of electronics in harsh environments while preserving an absolute minimal risk of failure. In this regard, effort spent early in the design process on concept development, parametric and trade-off studies, and simulation-driven design can yield amplified benefits in terms of product performance and reliability, reduced … [Read more...]
Thermal Management – Enabled Products at CES 2017
The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) which concluded earlier this month is the largest annual conference and expo for anything or everything in electronics in the continental USA. By some estimates, CES 2017 exceeded the previous year record, topping 177K+ attendees. In such a large conference, enabling technologies like thermal management often take a backseat to the … [Read more...]
A Note from the Technical Editor
Year 2017 is already off to a good start… a warm welcome to all our readers from Electronics Cooling! As electronics continue to pervade all walks of our lives, thermal management remains front and center as one of the important enablers in product realization. At the risk of repeating myself, I must say that there has never been a better time than the present to be an … [Read more...]
