Radiation heat transfer can be a significant portion of total heat transfer from a heat sink, particularly in natural convection flows. The enclosures for most natural-convection-cooled indoor and outdoor electronic equipments, such as pole or wall-mount base stations and radio units, include external fins to improve natural convection and radiation heat transfer rates. Early … [Read more...]
Thermal Optimization And Design For Manufacturability Of Liquid-Air Hybrid Cooling Systems
Introduction Existing technologies typically utilize air to carry the heat away from a heat sink that is thermally coupled to the microprocessor. Higher performance devices such as workstations, "gaming" PCs, or tower servers that utilize components with greater power dissipation can require more aggressive cooling technology. A high-performance alternative to heat sinks is a … [Read more...]
Modeling Multiple Heat Source Problems In Electronic Systems
Introduction Readers of ElectronicsCooling know about the rapid pace of technological developments towards an increasingly higher level of miniaturization and, hence, an incredible increase of dissipation power densities. Thus, restating some very well known facts (such as, we have already attained a level of power density that is comparable to nuclear power stations) would not … [Read more...]
On The Challenges of Thermal Characterization of High-Power, High-Brightness LED Packages
Introduction In recent years, high-power, high-brightness Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) have penetrated into an ever-increasing number of lighting applications. For such devices, maintaining a low die temperature is becoming a huge challenge because of the escalating power density (e.g., 200-300 W/cm2 for the latest generation). Active cooling solutions are rarely considered as … [Read more...]
2U Rack Mountable Vapor Compression Cooling System For High Power Electronics
Vapor compression refrigeration has long been used to cool telecommunications equipment and some high performance computers. On the whole, however, its usage has been confined to high-value, relatively large, and stationary applications. The advantages of vapor compression cooling (VCC) systems are fairly well known. They can provide heat sinks at below ambient temperatures … [Read more...]
