Cooling Trends for Industrial Drives & Power Management Applications
Introduction This article is a use of helpful comparison of common thermal solutions you may want to consider with the overall increase in automation in the electrification of the world. We'll focus on two distinct segments within the industrial market, one being energy management and the other being automation and control applications such as solar and wind inverters. … [Read more...]
Utilizing Boyd Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs)
Introduction Let's begin with two images that may be familiar, but will provide a very good illustration to help us frame the current market trend and why liquid cooling is on the rise. The two charts in Figure 1 show actual CPU and GPU power consumption over the years, and Figure 2 shows an overall trend in chip power. As we can see here at this point, in 2023 at 700 … [Read more...]
