Researchers at San Diego State University in California are examining an alternative to traditional heat pipes they say could help increase cooling efficiency in laptops and other portable electronic devices. Known as pulsating or oscillating heat pipes, the system may offer a heat transfer capacity up to 100 times better than conventional heat pipes, says assistant professor … [Read more...]
Apple Files Patent for Smaller, Quieter Wireless Cooling Fan
A patent application filed by Apple hints at the company’s latest plan to bypass design limitations and shrink their devices even more. While the technology company strives to develop increasingly lighter and thinner products, certain components limit how thin and light the company can make their devices. One such component is the cooling fan, an essential thermal management … [Read more...]
Cooling Fans and Accessories Protect Critical Components
NTE Electronics has released a new line of cooling fans and accessories to protect critical electronic components from premature failure due to heat. Available in five different sizes—40x40mm, 60x60mm, 80x80mm, 92x92mm and 120x120mm—the new AC and DC fans from NTE Electronics utilize a propeller to create a large airflow in the direction of the axis, moving the air in a … [Read more...]
Heating Up Nanodevices May Keep Electronics Cool
As electronic devices have grown smaller and more powerful, new thermal management methods have been created to help prevent them from overheating; however, researchers and engineers are in a constant race to come up with new methods to adequately manage the increasing amount of heat being generated by shrinking next-generation devices. Now, scientists at University of … [Read more...]
Hybrid Liquid-Air-Cooled Heat Sink for Extreme Environments
CoolClouds, Inc. has announced the availability of a new class of heat sinks for use in high performance computers or extreme environments starting mid-Q1 2014. According to the company, SuprCool-PC is the first “in-chassis” heat sink to cool more than 300w in the latest Intel and AMD processors without hot spots at 65°C case temperature in 25°C ambient. Comparable in size to … [Read more...]
