As more high power wide band gap devices are being utilized. the thermal management issues associated with these devices need to be resolved. High power small devices dissipate excessive heat that must be cooled, but traditional cooling methods are insufficient to provide such a cooling means. This paper will evaluate a micro-capillary pumped loop thermal management system that is incorporated into the shim of the device, taking advantage of phase-change to increase the thermal conductivity of the system. The results of the modeling of the thermal management system will be discussed.

High-power electronic chips have been advanced to such an extent that the heat dissipation capability of a system design has become one of the primary limiting factors. Therefore, thermal design must be considered in the early stage of the electronic system development. In present paper, the results of an experimental study on the forced convection cooling are presented to evaluate cooling performance of an electronic cabinet which in generally used for telecommunication system. Temperatures and thermal resistances are applied to compare the heat transfer characteristics for various locations of a fan unit as well as various configuration of non-uniform powering modules. As a result, the optimal configuration of a fan unit and powering configuration is suggested for the effective thermal design of telecommunication system.

In this paper, we propose the development of nitrogen cooling equipment for personalized local area. The proposed equipment consists of a cold air supply module, a body, and nitrogen injection with the following characteristics. First, it automatically controls the amount and time of cold air supply by utilizing information measuring skin temperature with volumetric temperature sensors, so it can have a competitive edge in function by ensuring complete safety. Second, if the distance measuring sensor is applied to the skin for more than a certain distance, it can block the cold air or control the discharge of nitrogen in conjunction with the control GUI to improve the efficiency of higher cooling therapy while providing safe management. Third, by installing a control module that can control the supply of nitrogen, the cost of maintenance can be minimized by minimizing the loss of nitrogen. Experiments at an external testing agency to evaluate the performance of the proposed equipment showed that the accuracy of the temperature sensor was measured in the range of ±3.8%, which is lower than the world's highest level(±5%), with a range of 110℃ to -160℃ similar to the world's highest level. Distance accuracy was measured in the range of ±3.0%, lower than the world's highest level(±5%), and weight accuracy in the range of ±0.1%, lower than the world's highest level(±5%). In addition, emission control was measured in four stages, higher than the world's highest level(stage 1) and nitrogen use was measured at 0.8L/min below the world's highest(6L/min). Therefore, the effectiveness of the methods proposed in this paper was demonstrated because they produced the same results as the world's highest levels.

A performance test of an air cycle machine with an air to air heat exchanger was performed. The air cycle machine designed for avionics cooling in a fighter's external pod is a small turbo machine operated on the reverse Brayton air cycle driven by captured ram air which is the source of driving energy and it can be used as cooling fluid going through electronics in the pod during the flight. The air to air heat exchanger was also used to avoid moisture for avionics. The performance test have verified that the developed ACM and heat exchanger meet the design requirements.

Cooling the electronic equipment is one of the major focal points of the design process and the key to successful product launch. The two-phase loop thermosyphone which is a good candidate among many available options was investigated fur cooling of the high power amplifiers. The system is composed of evaporator which contains 6 parallel cold plates, fan cooled condenser, gas-liquid separator, and interconnecting tubes. Experiments were performed for several refrigerant charging values, hs and as a experiment result, the optimum charging value fur this system was proposed. In order to optimize the system design, the operating cycle pressure and inlet/outlet temperatures of evaporator and condenser are measured and analyzed. The effect of the three parameters such as flow rate and temperature of condenser cooling air, and thermal load on the evaporator are investigated. The lower the operating pressure and the cycle temperatures are also better to prevent the leakage of the system. The system invesigated in this paper can be directly used for cooling of a real unmanned wireless communication station.

The fan is widely used to cool high heat flux generated as of the electronic communication device consoles. It, however, makes a lot of noises that interfere considerably with the operation environment. This study was conducted to obtain the cooling design technology of the consoles through being equipped with the Heat Pipe Heat Exchangers (HPHE) together with low revolution fans in place of existing fans for the cooling technology of the forced convection. Not only the sealed type consoles but the HPHE were also designed so as to cool effectively the heat generated from the inside of the console. The simulation was conducted by computational numerical analysis along with its experiments. The results of the numerical analysis and experiments were compared in order to improve the cooling technology of the consoles mounted with the HPHE. Consequently, instead of loud fan noise generated as of existing forced convection methods, the cooling technology of HPHE can remarkably improve many problems such as the operation environment, indoor dust, malfunction caused by pollution sources and so on.

메모리 소자의 수요가 데스크톱 컴퓨터의 정체와 모바일 기기의 폭발적인 증가로 NAND flash 메모리의 고집적화로 이어져서 3차원 집적 기술의 고도화가 중요한 요소가 되고 있다. 1 mm 정도의 얇은 웨이퍼 상에 만들어지는 메모리 소자는 실제 두께는 몇 마이크로미터 되지 않는다. 수직방향으로 여러 장의 웨이퍼를 연결하면 폭 방향으로 이미 거의 한계에 도달해있는 크기 축소(shrinking) 기술에 의지 하지 않고서도 메모리 소자의 용량을 증대 시킬 수 있다. CPU, AP등의 논리 연산 소자의 경우에는 발열 문제로 3D stacking 기술의 구현이 쉽지 않지만 메모리 소자의 경우에는 저 전력화를 통해서 실용화가 시작되었다. 스마트폰, 휴대용 보조 저장 매체(USB memory, SSD)등에 수 십 GB의 용량이 보편적인 현재, FEOL, BEOL 기술을 모두 가지고 있는 국내의 반도체 소자 업체들은 자연스럽게 TSV 기술과 이에 필요한 장비의 개발에 관심을 가지게 되었다. 특히 이 중 TSV용 스퍼터링 장치는 transistor의 main contact 공정에 전 세계 시장의 90% 이상을 점유하고 있는 글로벌 업체의 경우에도 완전히 만족스러운 장비를 공급하지는 못하고 있는 상태여서 연구 개발의 적절한 시기이다. 기본 개념은 일반적인 마그네트론 스퍼터링이 중성 입자를 타겟 표면에서 발생시키는데 이를 다시 추가적인 전력 공급으로 전자 - 중성 충돌로 인한 이온화 과정을 추가하고 여기서 발생된 타겟 이온들을 웨이퍼의 표면에 최대한 수직 방향으로 입사시키려는 노력이 핵심이다. 본 발표에서는 고전력 이온화 스퍼터링 시스템의 자기장 해석, 냉각 효율 해석, 멀티 모듈 회전 자석 음극에 대한 동역학적 분석 결과를 발표한다. 그림1에는 이중 회전 모듈에 대한 다물체 동역학 해석을 Adams s/w package로 해석하기 위하여 작성한 모델이고 그림2는 180도 회전한 서브 모듈의 위상이 음극 냉각에 미치는 효과를 CFD-ACE+로 유동 해석한 결과를 나타내고 있다.

오늘날 전자 장비는 매우 다양한 기능의 채용으로 많은 양의 부품을 필요로 하고 그에 따른 전체 시스템의 무게와 크기를 줄이기 위해 소형화와 슬림화가 필수적이다. 따라서 다수의 부품 사용과 고성능화로 인한 열 발생 밀도도 크게 증가하여 열로 인한 온도 상승이 부품의 성능에 매우 중요한 요소로 작용하고 있다. 기기에서의 지속적인 열 발생은 기기를 탑재하고 있는 전체 시스템의 성능에도 큰 영향을 미치며, 특히 고온의 외기에 장시간 노출된 디지털전광판의 시효문제는 시급히 해결해야 할 당면 과제이기도 하다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 LCD 패널의 발열로 인한 기기의 성능 저하와 다운 현상을 예방할 수 있도록 열전소자를 이용한 알루미늄 압출형 히트싱크에 대한 열 저항기술을 개발하고, 냉각모듈에 대한 설계기술을 확보하여 LCD 패널용 고효율의 냉각시스템의 개발 과제를 수행했다.

The experiments have been carried out to evaluate the cooling performance of a fan-aluminum foam heat sink assembly in comparison with a conventional CPU cooler. In terms of the dimensionless surface temperature of the heater, the cooling performance of the aluminum foam heat sink is similar to that of the conventional one with much reduced weight. The optimum fin height is found to be strongly dependent on the fin height of the heat sink and flow characteristics of the cooling fan.
