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...]
The Problem with Effective Thermal Conductivity
Simply stated, the problem with the use of volume weighted, effective thermal conductivity, kvw, in the thermal modeling of a printed circuit board (PCB), is inaccuracy. In this paper, we show how using kvw can lead to serious errors in the prediction of PCB temperatures. We recommend two, related, alternative procedures that provide greater … [Read more...]
Recent Advancements in Oil Immersion Cooling
This blog summarizes some of the recent findings from an ongoing project “An In-Depth Understanding of Oil Immersion Cooling Strategies for Data Centers” at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA). This project is supported by NSF I/UCRC grant in the program “Energy-Smart Electronic Systems” (ES2) and by many industry partners. Complete immersion of servers in … [Read more...]
