| Heat Exchanger Fan Selection Part 1 of 2 |
 One of the most important parameters in air-to-liquid cooling applications is airflow. To calculate the airflow required to cool a process, one must know the amount of heat to be dissipated and the change in air temperature. Airflow alone, however, is not sufficient in selecting a fan. The system impedance along the air path must also be calculated. Airflow and system impedance define the fan operating point necessary to cool a process. When selecting a fan for a heat exchanger, some other considerations include fans versus blowers, constant or variable flow, and AC or DC power.

 FLOMERICS JOINS NAFEMS CFD WORKING GROUP
To help promote best practice in the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) during the design phase, Flomerics has joined the NAFEMS CFD Working Group. Founded in 1995, the group provides guidance and information for the safe and reliable use of CFD within the engineering community.
 LIQUID COOLING COMPANY AWARDED PATENT
FOR MIST GENERATION, FREEZING, AND DELIVERY SYSTEM
Lytron Inc, designer and manufacturer of Total Thermal Solutions™, recently announced that it was awarded U.S. Patent 7,246,497 for a mist generation, freezing, and delivery system. The invention provides a system that generates particles of mist, freezes the mist particles, and delivers a mixture of gas and the solid mist particles to an external application. The generated gas/solid mist can be used for a variety of applications such as backside wafer cooling, rapid material quenching, rapid body cooling for induced hypothermia, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and more.
