As most readers are aware, the data center industry has put an increased focus on energy efficiency and environmental impact. Data centers in the United States are estimated to consume nearly 2% of the total electricity. The de facto metric used in the data center industry to evaluate energy efficiency has been the Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), as defined by The Green Grid … [Read more...]
Advanced SAM Validates Integrity of Diffusion Bonds
For bond quality testing, Scanning Acoustic Microscopy offers far greater accuracy and reliability than traditional helium leak testing Introduction Industries with demanding metal bonding applications are increasingly relying on diffusion bonding, an essential joining method for achieving a high-purity interface between two similar or even dissimilar metals. The process … [Read more...]

In this article, we demonstrate a unique approach to improving the cooling of high-performance components by combining thermal and … [Read more...]
Network Implementation of Advective Thermal Conductances
Overview Accurate modeling of thermal networks requires that all relevant modes of heat transfer, including advection, be included. Otherwise, component temperatures may be under- or over-estimated. This article presents a method for systematically including advection in one-dimensional (1D) thermal networks, via the use of unidirectional elements in the thermal network … [Read more...]
