  • Patent number: 7517140
    Abstract: Techniques for precision testing of thermal interface materials are described. An apparatus may include multiple anvils each having multiple sensors disposed along its axis. A thermal interface material may be disposed between the anvils. A control module may be communicatively coupled to said sensors and arranged to receive temperature readings from the multiple sensors to form a temperature gradient, determine a surface temperature for each anvil based on the temperature gradient, determine a heat flux through the thermal interface material based on the surface temperature, and determine a resistance value for the thermal interface material based on the heat flux. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 7443670
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, systems for improved blower fans are provided. In some embodiments, systems may include a casing comprising an inlet to accept a fluid and an outlet to evacuate the fluid. The systems may further comprise an impeller disposed within the casing, comprising a hub and one or more impeller blades coupled to the hub. In some embodiments, the inlet of the casing may be shaped to reduce the amount of fluid that evacuates the casing via the inlet due to pressure within the casing.

  • Patent number: 6653755
    Abstract: A fan assembly is described having a circular arrangement of fins located around a circular arrangement of blades. Air leaving tips of the blades has high velocity to efficiently break down a convection barrier layer on each of the fins. By breaking down the convection barrier layer, more heat is transferred from the fins to the air. An additional set of blades is located around the fins and an additional set of fins is located around the additional set of blades. Each fin is attached to a respective turn of a coiled heat pipe. The heat pipe has an end which is thermally connected to a processor of a computer.
