A Difficult Balance for Data Centers As data centers push toward higher rack power densities and rapidly scaling AI workloads, liquid cooling has become essential for managing extreme thermal loads efficiently. Designing these next generation cooling systems is challenging – engineers must balance reliability, energy use, water consumption, and safety, all while navigating tight deployment […]
Data centers face an unprecedented thermal challenge that demands revolutionary approaches to cooling system design and control. As computational demands surge with AI workloads and high-performance computing applications, heat generation has increased dramatically with some next-generation systems producing heat fluxes many times higher than traditional data centers. This exponential growth in thermal loads is pushing […]
What To Consider When Designing Thermal Management Systems in Electric Vehicles Thermal management system design in the electrification era requires a complex approach to ensure vehicle performance and customer satisfaction. Electric vehicle’s (EV) system design and controls will influence the range of the vehicle, cabin comfort, and performance, and it is important to use a […]
Simulating Battery Packs – Not All Cells are the Same When simulating a large battery module, typically we assume that all the cells in the module are going to be the same. However, that is not always the case. Factors such as the capacities and resistances of the cell can vary from cell-to-cell. This brings […]
Learn how to use a model to evaluate battery pack safety during thermal runaway events Designers of battery packs are tasked with a very challenging problem: to package a set of cells as tightly as possible and minimize the amount of non-cell weight in the battery while maintaining proper temperature levels of cells, protecting against […]
