AIR FORCE INQUIRES ABOUT THERMAL MGMT.SOLUTIONS FOR FUTURE AIRCRAFT 8/11/15 - The U.S. Air Force is looking into new thermal management techniques to cool the electronics in future fighter aircraft. “Officials of the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, issued a broad agency announcement Friday (BAA-AFRL-RQKP-2015-0002) for the Hybrid-Cycle … [Read more...]
On-site Cogeneration for Reducing Data Center Primary Energy Use
Dustin W. Demetriou, PhD Email: dwdemetr@us.ibm.com As most readers are aware, the data center industry has put an increased focus on energy efficiency and environmental impact. Data centers in the United States are estimated to consume nearly 2% of the total electricity. The de facto metric used in the data center industry to evaluate energy efficiency has been the Power Usage … [Read more...]
University Produces Smart Compliers to Assist Research During ‘Dark Silicon’ Era
Researchers from Lancaster University believe a ‘dark silicon’ era is rapidly approaching. This era suggests more than 80 percent of computer processors’ transistors will be turned off and ‘remain dark’ in order to prevent the chips from overheating. “Hardware design is rapidly evolving to prevent this need to 'power down' transistors and coming up with innovative solutions. … [Read more...]
LED Displays Added to Clothing; New Opportunities for Wearables
A team of researchers from Holst Centre at Ghent University have produced the world’s first stretchable thin-film transistor driven by LED display which is laminated into textiles. This new discovery paves the way for LED displays in wearable clothing. “Wearable devices such as healthcare monitors and activity trackers are now a part of everyday life for many people. Today's … [Read more...]
Two Phase Cooling System for Data Centers
Ebullient introduces a two phase cooling system for data centers - the Ebullient Cooling System (ECS). It can cool up to 12 heat sources in series in a continuous loop while maintaining a device temperature of +/-2 degrees Celsius. It also offers flexible tubing which allows the system to adapt to hardware without modification. The cooling system “is composed of Ebullient’s ES … [Read more...]
