Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy have developed a new technique that combines carbon nanotubes and organic materials to enable more efficient cooling of microprocessor chips. While carbon nanotubes have long been known to offer high thermal conductivity, widespread application in cooling systems has proven difficult because of their high thermal interface … [Read more...]
Tesla to Replace Charging Adapters Following Vehicle Fire
Electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla Motors Inc. has announced it will send out replacement wall charger adapters to customers following an investigation into a garage fire involving a Tesla Model S sedan and its wall-mounted charging system last month. Investigators of the Nov. 15 Irvine, Calif. fire said in a report that the Tesla-supplied charging system or the connection at … [Read more...]
New Ultrathin Material May Lead to Better Thermally Conductive Coatings
Scientists at Kansas State University have discovered a new ultrathin electrically conductive material they say may lead to advances in the efficiency of electronic and thermal devices. Vikas Berry, the William H. Honstead professor of chemical engineering, and his colleagues found that manipulating molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)—a three-atom-thick inorganic compound … [Read more...]
Electrical Field Facilitates Better Heat Transfer
The application of an electric field to a condenser could double the efficiency of surface heat transfer in power plant and high performance computing cooling systems, according to new research released by scientists at MIT. The discovery—made by MIT postdoc Nenad Miljkovic, associate professor of mechanical engineering Evelyn Wang, graduate student Daniel Preston, and former … [Read more...]
Characterization of Server Thermal Mass
Mahmoud Ibrahim Panduit Corporation The continuous growth of internet business and social media is necessitating the construction of new data centers to support the rising volume of internet traffic. This is in addition to the increasing number of colocation facilities being built to support different business sizes with different functions. Generally, data centers are … [Read more...]
