A little over a pandemic ago, the first article in this series on statistical analysis mentioned that a fundamental aspect of statistics is that one assumes a mathematical model that describes the distribution of a data set and then uses that model to estimate the probability that a given value or set of values will occur [1]. This allows us, for example, to estimate whether … [Read more...]
Thermal Comfort Considerations for Electronics Cooling and Design
Written by: Mark Hepokoski, ThermoAnalytics and Alex Ockfen, Meta Reality Labs Introduction ASHRAE defines thermal comfort as “that condition of mind that expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment” [1]. While engineers and designers are typically familiar with the thermal safety and compliance standards required in their industry [2], thermal comfort is less well … [Read more...]
Machine Learning Optimization to Boost the Effectiveness of Phase Change Material (PCM)-Based On-Chip Passive Thermal Management
Written by: Dr. Amy Marconnet and Meghavin Bhatasana - Purdue University Although miniaturization of electronic components has helped advance computing power and accelerated technology development, it has increased power densities and exacerbated the already challenging issue of electronics cooling at the component level. Continuous operation at high temperatures degrades … [Read more...]
Breaking Grounds with Generative Design for Two-phase Cooling of Electronic Devices
Since the size of electronic components keeps on decreasing, the need for improved heat dissipation on these components keeps increasing. This dichotomy presents thermal engineers with a formidable challenge: how to design smaller coolers that dissipate more heat. Adding to the challenge, the fast-paced evolution of electronics means that the development time for the new cooler … [Read more...]
Future Trends in LED Driver System Modeling
Introduction A decade ago, the major players in the lighting industry decided to make the transition to digital systems and set the pace in connected lighting. At present, only a few companies can maintain their leadership. As a self-fulfilling prophecy, the lighting landscape changed remarkably, with scattered competitors having access to internet of things (IoT) ecosystems … [Read more...]
