4.
Thermal conduction modules using water Computer cooling were used in mainframe systems manufactured by other companies including Mitsubishi and Fujitsu.
| FactSnippet No. 850,542 |
5.
Piping, heat exchangers, and pumps for the cooling system were arranged in an upholstered bench seat around the outside of the base of the computer.
| FactSnippet No. 850,543 |
6.
Computer cooling has a certain resistance to air flowing through the chassis and components.
| FactSnippet No. 850,544 |
7.
Passive heatsink Computer cooling involves attaching a block of machined or extruded metal to the part that needs Computer cooling.
| FactSnippet No. 850,545 |
8.
Passive Computer cooling involves no fan noise as convection forces move air over the heatsink.
| FactSnippet No. 850,546 |
9.
Fan Computer cooling is often used to cool processors and graphics cards that consume significant amounts of electrical energy.
| FactSnippet No. 850,547 |
10.
Liquid Computer cooling is a highly effective method of removing excess heat, with the most common heat transfer fluid in desktop PCs being water.
| FactSnippet No. 850,548 |
11.
Disadvantages of liquid Computer cooling include complexity and the potential for a coolant leak.
| FactSnippet No. 850,549 |
12.
IBM Aquasar system uses hot water Computer cooling to achieve energy efficiency, the water being used to heat buildings as well.
| FactSnippet No. 850,550 |
13.
Since 2011, the effectiveness of water Computer cooling has prompted a series of all-in-one water Computer cooling solutions.
| FactSnippet No. 850,551 |
14.
Soft Computer cooling is the practice of utilizing software to take advantage of CPU power saving technologies to minimize energy use.
| FactSnippet No. 850,552 |
15.
Undervolting is used for quiet systems, as less Computer cooling is needed because of the reduction of heat production, allowing noisy fans to be omitted.
| FactSnippet No. 850,553 |
16.
Phase-change Computer cooling is an extremely effective way to cool the processor.
| FactSnippet No. 850,554 |
17.
Alternately, a new breed of the Computer cooling system is being developed, inserting a pump into the thermosiphon loop.
| FactSnippet No. 850,555 |
18.
Direct Contact Liquid Cooling has emerged more efficient than air Computer cooling options, resulting in smaller footprint, lower capital requirements and lower operational costs than air Computer cooling.
