Oregon State University engineers have recently discovered a new way to make advanced electronics more efficient by inducing and controlling boiling bubble formations. According to ScienceDaily.com, “The new approach is based on the use of piezoelectric inkjet printing to create hydrophobic polymer "dots" on a substrate, and then deposit a hydrophilic zinc oxide nanostructure … [Read more...]
Industry’s First Portable Measurement Equipment to Improve Thermal Efficiency
SANYO DENKI has recently developed and launched the first portable measuring equipment that measures the system impedance and operating airflow of devices. The San Ace Airflow Tester claims to “improve the thermal efficiency of a device” by “measuring the system impedance and operating airflow of devices” according to Sanyo Denki. It is compact and lightweight, and has the … [Read more...]
Graphene Nanoflakes Better Dissipates Electronics’ Heat
(April 29, 2016) Recently, a team of researchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have developed a more efficient approach to cooling electronics using graphene nanoflake-based film. According to E&T, the team performed “experiments in which they managed to increase the efficiency of heat transfer by 76 per cent” – the kind of results that suggest … [Read more...]
Metal Inverse Opals Could Better Cool Electronics
(April 7th, 2016) New work by researchers at Stanford University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, suggest that “metal inverse opals” could be used to cool down electronic devices as well as other thermal management applications. Nanotechweb.org explained that “these materials are metal films that contain a periodic arrangement of interconnected spherical … [Read more...]
New Approach to Simulate Nanoscale Thermoelectric Materials
(April 7th, 2016) A research group led by Joe Feser, assistant professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Delaware, has developed a new approach to simulating nanoscale heat transfer in materials, according to Phys.org. More specifically, the research group is “investigating the limits of heat transport using a suite of new tools for nanoscale … [Read more...]
