Journal ArticleDOI
Heat exchanger design methodology for electronic heat sinks
TL;DR: Inlet temperature difference (ITD) based heat-exchanger (and its variants) design methodology frequently used by designers of electronic heat sinks is discussed in this paper, where its shortcomings are evaluated and designers are directed to the well established and accepted design methodology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancement of Combined Heat and Mass Transfer in a Vertical-Tube Heat and Mass Exchanger
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an enhancement of heat and mass transfer between a countercurrent, gravity-drained water film and air flowing in a vertical tube using spaced, transverse wires placed in the air boundary layer, near the air--water interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analytic Prediction of the Friction Factor for Turbulent Flow in Internally Finned Channels
M. J. Scott,Ralph L. Webb +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an analytical model for the friction factor with turbulent flow in internally finned channels, which assumes the validity of the Law of the Wall and applies the logarithmic velocity distribution to the interfin and core regions of the flaw.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Advanced Technology for Server Cooling
Ralph L. Webb,Hasan Nasir +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report work on advanced cooling technology for servers, which shows that it is possible to provide cooling (UA/Afr ) in the range of 670-1000 W/m2 -K, where m2 is the core frontal area.
