Ceramtec’s CeramCool Box is made for homogeneous and efficient cooling of packing densities up to 100W/cm2. For example, with an edge length of just 16 x 40 x 40 mm it has a total cooling capacity of 1600W, which corresponds to a thermal capacity of 1200W. The maximum temperature of an LED is just 90°C with a coolant flow rate of 180l/h and an ambient and cooling water … [Read more...]

Diamond-Thin Films Cool Electronics
Two new studies performed at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory have revealed a new pathway for materials scientists to use previously unexplored properties of nanocrystalline-diamond thin films. The unusually attractive thermal properties of diamond thin films have led scientists to suggest using this material as a heat sink that could be integrated … [Read more...]
Slim Form Factor Liquid Cooling for Laptops and All-In-Ones
Asetek Inc. announced today a new slim form factor liquid cooling technology for extreme performance and workstation grade laptops and All-In-One PCs. The fundamental challenge in cooling desktop replacement laptops and All-In-One PCs is the lack of space for a proper thermal solution. Consequently, previous attempts at liquid cooling laptops have offered no performance … [Read more...]
Nanoparticles Increase Thermal Properties of Transformer Oil
Rice University scientists have created a nano-infused oil that could greatly enhance the ability of devices as large as electrical transformers and as small as microelectronic components to shed excess heat. Research in the lab of Rice materials scientist Pulickel Ajayan could raise the efficiency of such transformer oils by as much as 80 percent with an environmentally … [Read more...]
