BACKGROUND In a proposal submitted to the Air Force in November of 1968, Collins Radio Company described ways to improve the electronic industry’s understanding of thermal management and predictive techniques [1]. This article briefly describes that proposal and discusses what aspects of electronics cooling have changed over the past five decades and what things have … [Read more...]
Custom Liquid Cooling Systems Optimize Particle Accelerators Performance
Global technology leader Laird has developed self-contained liquid cooling systems (LCS) that deliver optimal temperature stabilization for more precise temperature control in particle accelerators like linear accelerators (LINACs) and cyclotron systems. LINACs and cyclotrons increase the kinetic energy of particles for use in a variety of applications, ranging from scientific … [Read more...]
Thermal Energy Harvesting with Next Generation Cooling for Automotive Electronics
Co-authored by: Feng Zhou, Shailesh N. Joshi, Ercan M. Dede Electronics Research Department, Toyota Research Institute of North America, 1555 Woodridge Ave., Ann Arbor, MI 48105, US INTRODUCTION In 2012, vehicle fuel-efficiency standards were announced that require all US cars and light trucks to reach 54.5 miles per gallon on average by model year 2025. As a result, … [Read more...]
How Vapor-Compression Cooling Works
Vapor-compression cooling can be found in virtually any home, such as in air conditioners that remove heat from our homes and in refrigerators that store our food. The history of vapor-compression goes back to 1805 where Oliver Evans, an American inventor, described a closed vapor-compression refrigeration cycle for producing ice. The first working vapor-compression … [Read more...]
Electronics Cooling of Humans!
by MP Divakar, PhD, Stack Design Automation Technical Editor, Electronics Cooling Online Earlier in August of this year, Electronics Cooling featured an article on energy efficiency of data centers where a review of the energy consumed by the IT and non-IT equipment and its optimization by deterministic (DCIM) and AI methods (Google’s Deepmind) was presented. The … [Read more...]
