Computers that can recycle energy are among the scenarios IBM Corp. predicts over the next five years as part of its annual “Next Five in Five” year-end innovations report based on technologies being developed in IBM labs and around the world. On-chip water-cooling systems could be used to utilize thermal energy from a cluster of computer processors to provide hot water for an … [Read more...]
TECs for Larger Heat Pumping Applications
Nextreme Thermal Solutions recently introduced the eTEC HV56 module, the next product in its high-voltage (HV) line of thin-film thermoelectric coolers (TECs) designed to address electronics cooling applications with larger heat pumping requirements. At 85°C, the eTEC 0.6mm-high HV56 can pump 6 watts or 58 W/cm2 of heat in footprint of only 11 mm2. At 85°C, the eTEC HV56 can … [Read more...]
Chevy Volt’s Cooling Systems Include Power Electronics Coolant Loop
A GM article explaining the Chevrolet Volt’s cooling/heating systems notes that the power electronics coolant loop is designed to insure the main underhood electronics do not overheat during use. It is essential that the heat developed by the power inverter module and the plug-in battery charger while operating the Volt or when plugged in be dissipated in order to prevent … [Read more...]
