Image Caption: A capacitor failure on a GPU board was caused from oil absorption through the capacitor’s rubber seats while emerged in white oil. As higher clock frequencies and smaller transistor dimensions continue to increase the power density of high-performance computing technologies, such as CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, Laser Diodes, and Optical electronics, advances in thermal … [Read more...]
Introducing Our New Technical Editor – In the End, Entropy Always Wins… But Not Yet!
Greetings to all Electronics Cooling’s loyal readership and visitors, I have recently had the privilege of joining the Electronics Cooling team alongside the incredible Editorial Board and ITEM Media. My goal as part of the team is to help the experts on the Editorial Board and ITEM Media production staff to continue driving Electronics Cooling to add the most value to its … [Read more...]
How Vapor-Compression Cooling Works
Vapor-compression cooling can be found in virtually any home, such as in air conditioners that remove heat from our homes and in refrigerators that store our food. The history of vapor-compression goes back to 1805 where Oliver Evans, an American inventor, described a closed vapor-compression refrigeration cycle for producing ice. The first working vapor-compression … [Read more...]
Someday Humans Will “See” The Heat!
Many biological creatures are enabled with the ability to “see” the heat – reptiles, for example, effectively use this ability to detect the size of the heat-emitting object and its range. Other biological entities, including mammals, are enabled with the ability to perceive heat by a process known as Thermoception or Thermoreception. As humans, we are capable of sensing … [Read more...]
Computational Modeling of a Novel End-of-Aisle Close-Coupled Cooling Solution
Data centers are mostly managed by overly conservative thermal management approaches [1]. The typical thermal solution for data centers is perimeter computer room air handlers (CRAH). The traditional cooling method includes supplying air through raised floor plenum that is blown by the CRAH blowers, and the chassis fans, typically located at the rear end of the IT equipment, … [Read more...]
