The City of Chicago has installed new Borealis LED streetlights as part of a test pilot program, according to PolyBrite International, Inc., developer of the Borealis® brand Light Emitting Diode (LED) Lighting Systems. The City of Chicago will monitor the LED streetlights, weighed against their current lighting solution for streets and alleyways. The goal is for a safer, … [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...]
Lies, Damned Lies, and “CFD Comparison Charts” – Part II
In my last post I pointed out a very obvious mistake in Blue Ridge Numerics’ “CFD Comparison Chart” of March 19th this year, which incorrectly stated that FloEFD can only handle incompressible sub-sonic flows. The reason I highlighted this as the most obvious mistake in the “CFD Comparison Chart” is that FloEFD can trace its history back to the Russian Aerospace Industry in the … [Read more...]
Light Tack Adhesive Eases Fitting of Thermal Interface Pads
MH&W International now provides U 90 silicone-free thermal interface materials with a new light tack adhesive to provide high thermal conductivity where contamination threats prevent the use of silicone-based thermal pads, and allow their easy positioning between components and heat sinks. MH&W’s Keratherm U 90 thermal interface material is a ceramic-filled … [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...]
