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...]
Thermocouples Basics Part 2: How They Are Made and Its Measurement System
Continuing from part 1, and the advantages of thermocouples, we will now visit the process to make a thermocouple and its measurement system. The way thermocouples are made is very simple. We have a thermocouple welder, shown in Figure 1, as a small machine. The ends of the two wires are twisted to digital wires together, and then each set of wires touches to the point where … [Read more...]
Thermocouple Basics Part 1: Advantages to Multi-Channel Isolated Thermocouples
Multichannel isolated thermocouples is a system that RECOM developed for use in a test lab. We will discuss how this will be useful for others to know the advantages and disadvantages of such a system. What is a thermocouple? It is two different types of metals that are joined together. In figure 1, we have a metal that's called chromel, and another one called alumel. When … [Read more...]
Liquid Cooling Systems in Data Centers Help Companies Achieve Sustainability Goals
The millions of data centers worldwide require a significant amount of energy to function. This makes them not only very costly to operate, but also results in a substantial impact on the environment. Data Center Environmental Impact The environmental effects of all these data centers have become a growing concern to governments and the public. Industry experts are … [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...]
