"The API Heat Transfer and ThermaSys merger is a win-win proposition for our customers and employees,” Joe Cordosi, president and CEO, API Heat Transfer, said. “As a unified company, under the API Heat Transfer … [Read more...]
Nanoscale Device Recycles Waste Heat into Power
Researchers from the University of Rochester in New York have proposed a “new type of nanoscale engine” that recycles heat emitted from a device and uses it to power the same device. According to Andrew Jordan, a theoretical physics professor at the University of Rochester, the new nanoscale engine would use quantum dots—manufactured systems that act as “artificial atoms” … [Read more...]
Laptop Computer Smothered by Clothing Identified as Cause of House Fire
Officials have identified a laptop computer that was left running while sitting on top of a pile of clothes as the cause of a fire that destroyed a house in St. Raphael, Prince Edward Island, Canada earlier this week. "We believe that that laptop, at some point, got warm, and that heat then built up on that pile of clothes, and at some point ignited those clothes and that's … [Read more...]
New Liquid Cooling System Cools Submerged Electronics without Frying Them
Dr. John Summers demonstrates the Icetope liquid cooling system by submerging an iPhone in the 3M Novec solution. (Video: University of Leeds) Researchers at the University of Leeds in the United Kingdom have developed a cooling method that they claim reduces energy consumption for cooling by 80 to 97 percent by immersing server components in an electrically non-conductive … [Read more...]
New Silicone-Based Material May Increase Computer Speeds without Increasing Energy Consumption, Heat
Scientists from Dow Corning Electronic and IBM have developed a new high-performance, silicone-based material that could replace copper in waveguides and enable supercomputers to use energy more efficiently while simultaneously allowing for an increase computing speeds. Developing a method for increasing computer speeds without increasing energy consumption, and therefore heat, … [Read more...]
