As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to accelerate, the world is faced with new challenges each to combat and overcome the virus. With each rising challenge, companies are coming together to rapidly manufacture the necessary medical supplies and equipment to treat...
Thermal interface material (TIM) is a crucial part of any thermal management solution. Since it’s physically a small portion of most applications, it’s an easy component to overlook. But thermal interface material can make or break a device and its...
What is Thermal Interface Material? Many engineers focus more on heat sink design but often forget to spend time considering how heat gets from the heat source to the heat sink. Even the smoothest surface has some level of surface roughness. The roughness of two...
Calculating the Thermal Resistance of a Heat Exchanger Figure 1: shows a typical liquid cooling loop, consisting of a cold plate (CP), pump, and heat exchanger (HX) connected by hoses or tubing. Since the components are part of a system, it is important to select them...
Key Factors that Determine the Cost of Fabricating Heat Exchangers Manufacturing costs can be greatly impacted by demand, but this is not necessarily within the thermal or design engineers’ control. However, you can reduce costs by understanding how core and...
Recirculating chillers are “off-the-shelf” liquid cooling systems that offer precise temperature control and/or cooling below ambient temperatures. Extending the Lifetime and Reliability of Your System Recirculating chillers are used to cool various types...
