A team of IBM researchers in Switzerland is experimenting with a micro network of copper tubes that run through smaller, clustered computer servers and whisk away heat with the help of warm water. Liquid cooling, even with warm water, is 4,000 times more effective than air cooling at removing heat, they say. Researchers from IBM and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in … [Read more...]
The Debate about Liquid Cooled Data Centers
I’ve been remiss in not posting for a couple of weeks, so I’m trying to get back in the saddle. I’ve been working on other things that have taken up a fair bit of time. One is a web seminar on heatsinks – Heatsink 201 – Even More about Heat Sinks which follows on from Alexandra Francois-Saint-Cyr’s very successful Heat Sink 101 web seminar. Back in March I posted about IBM’s … [Read more...]
Tiny Technology Making a Big Splash
Thermacore, Inc., a provider of heat pipe technology and other thermal management solutions, announced that Thermacore Europe is making progress as lead partner of an 8.3 million euro ($11.4M) European research project, NanoHex. The team is tasked with developing a next-generation liquid coolant that incorporates purpose engineered nano-particles for more efficient … [Read more...]
Toward Liquid-Cooled Computers
Experts say a new technique called superwicking could provide a better way to cool computer hardware and could help remove one of the biggest barriers to a new generation of high-powered microprocessors. And in the meantime, it could prove a boon to tiny fluid-based sensors. Optical physicists Chunlei Guo and Anatoliy Vorobyev of the University of Rochester in New York state … [Read more...]
