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...]
Inductive Wireless Charging is Now a Thermal Design Problem
Introduction: It is interesting how different parts of a value chain speak differently, sometimes wildly differently, about a product or feature but they may use the exact same words. For example, both the consumer and the thermal engineer want the device to have “cool” features. Wireless charging is one such hardware feature [1]. Wireless charging was included in over … [Read more...]
Cooling Circuits with Nanochimneys in Carbon Nanotubes
The extraordinary properties of Graphene are well known, and in the context of electronics thermal management and reliability, it is about 200 times stronger than the strongest steel and conducts heat and electricity very efficiently. Both graphene and carbon nanotubes consist of six-atom rings, which create the well-known hexagonal Honeycomb structure, and both excel at the … [Read more...]
Thermal Facts & Fairy Tales: 7 years of college down the drain…
...might as well join the Peace Corps… - John "Bluto" Blutarsky1 I would hazard a guess that the majority of people bothering to read an article on electronics cooling likely work in the electronics industry. Moreover, it is probably a pretty good bet that a lot of them have actually taken a class on heat transfer at some point. Since most of us eventually graduated, it … [Read more...]
Thermal Effects in Supercapacitors
Supercapacitors (also referred to as electric double-layer capacitors (EDLC), electrochemical capacitors, electrochemical supercapacitors, and ultracapacitors) are a class of energy storage devices that bridge the gap between electrolytic capacitors and rechargeable batteries. Supercapacitors can typically store 10 to 100 times more energy per unit volume or mass than their … [Read more...]
