Magnetically-stimulated fluid flow patterns may offer a new method for handling difficult heat transfer problems by overcoming natural convection limits, according to new research from scientists at Sandia National Laboratories. Convection cooling, which refers to the transfer of heat between two places by the movement of fluids, is often forced in many modern cooling systems … [Read more...]
Nanoscale Pillars May Improve Thermoelectric Materials
Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder say a new method of improving thermoelectric materials could lead to the development of better solar panels, more energy-efficient cooling equipment and effective devices that could turn waste heat from power plants into electricity. The technique, which involves constructing an array of nanoscale pillars on top of a sheet of … [Read more...]
Researchers Eye Passive Cooling System for Microelectronics
Researchers at San Diego State University in California are examining an alternative to traditional heat pipes they say could help increase cooling efficiency in laptops and other portable electronic devices. Known as pulsating or oscillating heat pipes, the system may offer a heat transfer capacity up to 100 times better than conventional heat pipes, says assistant professor … [Read more...]
