Fan Technology

Core Features and Performance

Cooling fans maintain optimal temperatures for computer components by circulating air within or outside the case. They work in tandem with heat sinks and come in various styles and technologies to suit diverse cooling needs.

Key Performance Indicators

1. Airflow (CFM):

  • Measures the air volume moved per minute (cubic feet per minute).
  • High airflow enhances cooling but may increase noise.




2. Fan Speed (RPM):

  • Measures rotations per minute.
  • Influenced by motor design, voltage, blade number, tilt angle, and bearings.
  • Higher RPM generally means better cooling performance.




3. Noise (dB):

  • Indicates fan operation loudness.
  • Measured under controlled conditions to ensure minimal and uniform sound.




4. Wind Pressure:

  • Balances pressure and volume for efficient cooling.
  • Higher wind pressure maintains airflow in high-resistance environments, such as dense heat sinks.

GPU Fan Type

Heat Pipe

Advanced Thermal Transfer Technology

Heat pipes are vital components in modern cooling systems, leveraging phase change and thermal conductivity to efficiently transfer heat from one area to another.

Working Principle of a Heat Pipe

Heat Absorption

Heat is absorbed at the evaporator section, causing the working fluid inside the heat pipe to vaporize.

Heat Transfer

The vaporized fluid moves through the pipe to a cooler section, typically the condenser.

Heat Release

 At the condenser, the vapor releases its heat, condensing back into a liquid.

Fluid Return

The liquid returns to the evaporator via capillary action, gravity, or wick structures, repeating the cycle.

Key Technologies in Heat Pipe Design

1. Material Selection

  • High-Purity Metals: Materials like copper or aluminum enhance thermal conductivity and extend the lifespan of heat pipes.
  • Application-Specific Choices: Material selection depends on the heat transfer demands and operational environment.



2. Structural Design

  • Application-Specific Structures: Customized designs optimize heat transfer for different scenarios, such as compact electronics or large-scale systems.
  • Performance Optimization: Tailored structures ensure maximum efficiency in thermal transfer and cooling.



3. Surface Treatment

  • Corrosion Resistance: Coatings or treatments protect against environmental factors, enhancing durability.
  • Enhanced Heat Transfer: Surface modifications improve conductivity and performance.
