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...]
New Market Entry of Sealed Enclosure Coolers
As their “first step” into the sealed enclosure cooling market, Advanced Cooling Technologies (ACT) has recently launched its HSC, HPC and LNC series of sealed enclosure cooler products. ACT said this about each of their new products: “ACT’s HSC series of coolers are based on a patent pending design that utilizes the air impingement technology that is thermally efficient and … [Read more...]
World’s Thinnest Laptop Runs on ‘Hyperbaric’ Cooling
HP has recently released the world’s thinnest laptop – the Spectre 13.3” notebook, which cools its CPUs with what HP calls ‘hyperbaric cooling technology’. This system features two ultra-thin fans, a heat-pipe, and a special copper radiator, according to AnandTech.com. “The fans intake cool air from the outside and create significant air pressure inside the chassis to blow … [Read more...]
Electrocaloric Polymers That Create On-Demand Cooling
A team of researchers from Pennsylvania State University have recently developed a blend of ferroelectric polymers that could cool chips and small scale systems on demand. According to NewElectronics these are called electrocaloric materials, and typically an external field is required for them to operate correctly, but the “latest polymer blend can hold absorbed heat even … [Read more...]
