Scientists at Sweden's Institute of Technology have developed a nanofluid solution that could eventually be used to cool massive data centers and server farms. Researcher Mamoun Muhammed told CNN that his team had experimented with various nanoparticles, but the ones currently showing the most potential are oxides of metals such as zinc and copper. However, carbon nanotubes are … [Read more...]
Carbon Nanotubes Enable Pumpless Liquid Cooling System for Computers
Purdue University researchers, led by Suresh V. Garimella, have developed a new design employing carbon Nanotubes and small copper spheres that wicks water passively towards hot electronics that could meet the challenges brought on by increasing frequency speeds in chips. The researchers came up with a design that uses water as the coolant liquid and transfers the water to an … [Read more...]
Six Cool Innovations for the Data Center
Computing industry veteran John Brandon explains six new products and technologies that promise to solve real data centre problems or are already working to make enterprise operations run more smoothly. They include fiber optics with a twist, submerged liquid cooling and horizontal racks; several broadband lines combined into one; multiple data centers more easily connected; … [Read more...]

Hybrid’s Liquid System Allows Chevy to Offer Cool Warranty
The liquid heating and cooling system in the Chevrolet Volt battery not only enabled General Motors Co. to offer a long warranty of eight years or 100,000 miles, but it also gave engineers more room for battery cells since it’s more compact than air-cooled systems, but it also. Standard auto coolant circulates through 144 metal plates, called fins, between each of the Volt … [Read more...]
