Data centers are mostly managed by overly conservative thermal management approaches [1]. The typical thermal solution for data centers is perimeter computer room air handlers (CRAH). The traditional cooling method includes supplying air through raised floor plenum that is blown by the CRAH blowers, and the chassis fans, typically located at the rear end of the IT equipment, … [Read more...]

Case Study: Thermal Design and Analysis of a Combat-Ready Electronics Unit
INTRODUCTION Militaries continue to expand their use of electronics in harsh environments while preserving an absolute minimal risk of failure. In this regard, effort spent early in the design process on concept development, parametric and trade-off studies, and simulation-driven design can yield amplified benefits in terms of product performance and reliability, reduced … [Read more...]
Thermal Facts & Fairy Tales: 7 years of college down the drain…
...might as well join the Peace Corps… - John "Bluto" Blutarsky1 I would hazard a guess that the majority of people bothering to read an article on electronics cooling likely work in the electronics industry. Moreover, it is probably a pretty good bet that a lot of them have actually taken a class on heat transfer at some point. Since most of us eventually graduated, it … [Read more...]
Thermal Facts and Fairy Tales: Automated Meshing Philosophy?
Thermal Facts and Fairy Tales: Automated Meshing Philosophy? Peter Rodgers Fairy tales are a well-established way to convey science and technology education. For example, a recent textbook [1] has documented how a range of Victorian-era (1837 – 1901) instructors used fairies and their tales to clarify scientific and technological concepts for young audiences. Today, … [Read more...]
