This paper is a follow-up of a hard disk drive study presented at ITherm 2006 on thermal-acoustic optimization of a HDD placed inside an air duct with an axial fan. Today we present a benchmark study performed on a number of consumer products containing a HDD. We will show that it is possible to predict if a certain application design is close to its optimal, set-level design. This is important for...
Increased power density in electronics systems is limiting the ability of air cooling to provide adequate cooling for the components in the systems. Thermoelectric cooling are solid state and highly reliable devices that can be used as either refrigeration or heat pump. The use of thermoelectric device for hot spot cooling has attracted significant research. Under specific conditions, a well-selected...
This paper is a continuation of the study (Iyengar et al., 2007) that describes the comparison of numerically-predicted and experimentally- measured temperature distributions in a small data center test cell. The data center cell has a floor area of 900 ft2 and comprises one rack, one air-conditioning unit, and perforated tiles. The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) results in study (Iyengar et al...
