HydroSink: a smart and more efficient way to cool power electronics

摘要

Air systems have some limitations when cooling concentrated or transient heat. Aavid designed a liquid cooling system, "HydroSink(TM)", to replace traditional cooling, which is cheaper and performs better. It is made using the most reliable components on the market, while the liquid cold plate is fully customizable. HydroSink(TM) has a simple but efficient control system and is available in two sizes: "Small" and "Medium"; it can be supplied ready installed in a cabinet or as separated components. The nominal dissipated powers are 3.0 kW and 9.9 kW respectively, while they can work in a wide range of thermal resistances by acting on fan and pump speed ("Small" size: 7.0/21.0 deg C/kW and "Medium" size: 2.9/9.0 deg C/kW).
