I’ve not posted for a while, which is rather remiss of me. I underestimated the response we would get to our Heatsink 201 webinar, which I gather was our most popular ever, and the number of questions that people would ask. I had around 120 questions, which after removing duplicates and those to do with logistics ended up at around 80, so it took a while to answer them all. … [Read more...]
The art of modelling using CFD. Part V – Grid
Any simulation technology based on an approach of subdividing a 3D model into many tessellated control volumes (e.g. the finite volume method) will be affected by the shape and size of those ‘mesh cells’ or ‘grid’. How fine should the mesh be to resolve the physics of the model being simulated? Good question. I used to ask my art teacher how to draw … [Read more...]
Heat Sink Reliability Risks from Thermal Greases
ATS Thermal Labs has published a white paper, “Long term Thermal Grease Reliability.” It considers how long term heat sink reliability is affected by the use of thermal greases as thermal interface materials. The implications are very important as they will affect the MTBF of electronic equipment. Read the paper from ATS Thermal Labs. … [Read more...]
Multiple Platforms CPU Cooler
GlacialTech has introduced the IGLOO 5760 Multiple Platforms CPU cooler. This design incorporates a specially aligned copper heat pipe combination of three pipes that disperse the heat from the CPU directly into the heat sink fins. From there, the silent bullet axial fan quietly and efficiently brings the temperature down. The fan not only cools the radiator, but the added blow … [Read more...]
Heavy-Duty, Filtered Louvered Fan Guards for Enclosure Applications
Orion Fans has expanded its line of fan accessories with the LFG120B and LFG172B louvered fan guards. These heavy-duty filtered units help prevent dust and dirt from entering enclosures such as industrial cabinets, server cabinets and server racks. The fan guards also protect fingers from injury by the fan blades. Available for 120mm and 172mm fan sizes, the louvered fan guards … [Read more...]
