World’s Thinnest Laptop Runs on ‘Hyperbaric’ Cooling
HP has recently released the world’s thinnest laptop – the Spectre 13.3” notebook, which cools its CPUs with what HP calls ‘hyperbaric cooling technology’. This system features two ultra-thin fans, a heat-pipe, and a special copper radiator, according to AnandTech.com. “The fans intake cool air from the outside and create significant air pressure inside the chassis to blow … [Read more...]
Formula Developed for Heat Transfer Between Near-Field Bodies
Alejandro Rodriguez, a researcher at Princeton, and colleagues at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have come up with a formula that describes the maximum heat transfer between near-field objects in a recent study. Phys.org claimed that “with this new formula, engineers will know how much more performance can be squeezed out of their structural and material … [Read more...]
New Power Electronics Will Allow Army Vehicles’ Electronics to Operate at High Temperatures
The US Army has awarded GE Aviation with a contract to develop silicon carbide-based power electronics that will allow high-voltage, next-generation ground vehicles to operate at higher temperatures. "The US Army's implementation of [this technology for] more electric ground vehicles, facilitates significant improvements in size, weight and power for high temperature … [Read more...]
Overheating Causes 911 System Failure
Due to a problem with the computer cooling system, 911 service was down for about four hours recently in Buffalo, New York’s Erie County. According to Time Warner Cable News, the room at the Public Safety Campus that houses the 911 Dispatch overheated last Wednesday, and the county isn’t sure why the backup systems failed, but they are “working with partner companies to find … [Read more...]
