Fujitsu Laboratories Limited has developed cooling technology that employs waste heat generated by CPUs to produce chilled water that can be used to cool server rooms. Fujitsu Laboratories has developed a technology that can chill water from relatively low-temperature sources that have not been usable in the past. At 55°C, water produced from water-cooled type CPUs is of a … [Read more...]
Dual Tower Cooler with More Heat Pipes, Dimpled Fans
Spire Corp. recently introduced its new high-end tower CPU cooler. Spire codenamed its newest thermal solution Gemini, the Zodiac sign for twins, due to the two towering dimpled fin heat-sinks. The increased number of heat-pipes combined with a higher number and density of dimpled fins and two high airflow fans provide extreme cooling performance. Six U-shaped 6mm heat-pipes … [Read more...]
Series of Papers Illustrate Use of Thermal Simulation Technology in Design
NMB Technologies Corporation introduces a new series of informational engineering papers on how thermal simulation can aid, not only in the design of a system, but in anticipating the behavior of cooling components. In looking at the selection process of cooling components, in particular axial cooling fans, the first step for the engineer is to estimate the required airflow … [Read more...]
Multiple Platforms CPU Cooler
GlacialTech has introduced the IGLOO 5760 Multiple Platforms CPU cooler. This design incorporates a specially aligned copper heat pipe combination of three pipes that disperse the heat from the CPU directly into the heat sink fins. From there, the silent bullet axial fan quietly and efficiently brings the temperature down. The fan not only cools the radiator, but the added blow … [Read more...]
Ultra-Green CPU Cooling Technology
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...]
