As electric cars go to higher charging rates, better cooling will be needed. Direct Expansion, or DX, is a new cooling system that “uses the same refrigerant as used in your vehicle’s air conditioning system to cool the battery directly,” according to HybridCars.com. DX eliminates liquid glycol, even has a cooling rate of 3-4 times higher, and simplifies the battery’s … [Read more...]
New High-Rise Nano-Materials Incorporate Thermal Cooling Layers
Researchers and Stanford engineers are creating a new approach to the layout of computer processors and memory chips (called Nano-Engineered Computing Systems Technology, or N3XT) where processors and memory are stacked on top of one another like a high-rise architecture. This could cause immediate problems involving heat, but Stanford mechanical engineers Kenneth Goodson and … [Read more...]
Industry Leading Airflow and Static Pressure Fan Introduced
Sanyo Denki has announced its new high airflow fan, the San Ace 140 9GV type, which offers the industry’s highest airflow and static pressure. It has 6.8 times the static pressure and 2 times the airflow than other DC fans on the market. “The San Ace 140 9GV type has the PWM control function, designed for controlling the rotational speed of the fan from the device side,” … [Read more...]
New Internal Mount Coolers Ideal for Enclosure Cooling
TECA introduces a new line of coolers, which are internally mounted air conditioners ideal for enclosure cooling. Because these thermoelectric coolers are highly reliable and almost maintenance free, they are ideal for areas that are hard to access. They also don’t have refrigerants, compressors or any moving parts except fans. The coolers offer horizontal or vertical … [Read more...]
Researchers Send De-ionized Water Within Few Hundred Microns of Transistors
Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology have announced a breakthrough in increasing processing power. “Their innovative design involves sending liquid coolant—in the form of de-ionized water—through microfluidic passages within a few hundred microns of the transistors, allowing chips to operate at temperatures more than 60 percent lower than air-cooled chips,” … [Read more...]
