NEC has developed an eco-friendly cooling system for CPUs, said to use 60% less energy than a water-cooling system and even 80% less than an air-cooling system. The core of the system is a liquid chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) substitute, which circulates around the CPU to draw away heat and has low greenhouse effects. NEC says the refrigerant begins boiling at around 50oC, changes … [Read more...]
Two-Phase Cooling System
Parker Hannifin Corporation has released a two-phase cooling system to manage the heat of high- power electronics safely and efficiently. The Precision Electronics Cooling System Technology permits power electronics design platforms to have up to twice the power density in half the space. The system boils a vaporizable dielectric fluid across the base of the silicon chip, … [Read more...]
