Chips are getting hotter, and liquid cooling is moving from niche to necessary. That transition changes what “good” looks like for fluid connections. Quick disconnect couplings have long lived in industrial settings, where design tolerances, qualification habits, and manufacturing controls matched those use cases. Data center liquid cooling—along with aerospace/defense and … [Read more...]

At Thermal Live Spring 2025, Henkel provided valuable insights into the growing computational demands in data centers and the associated thermal stress risks, highlighting how their thermal interface materials are addressing … [Read more...]
Thermal Facts & Fairy Tales: Whatever Happened to the Predicted Data Center Energy Consumption Apocalypse?
As the title indicates, since the middle of the last decade, there have been very pessimistic projections regarding the growth of the total annual energy used by data centers in the U.S. One of them suggested that by 2030, the energy consumption in the U.S. in the IT sector would be roughly 60% of that used by its entire industrial sector. [1,2,3] What was the origin of this … [Read more...]
