Data Center Cooling
Berkeley Capstone Project
Project Objective:
Project Objective:
To design a simulation model that predicts the thermal behavior of a GPU in a cooling system and accounts for conduction and convection heat transfer.
Deliverables:
Deliverables:
Calculation of conduction and convection heat transfer resistancesÂ
Determining the velocity of the cooling medium and its impact on heat dissipationÂ
Simulation of the temperature evolution of the GPU and cooling medium over time
Allows for optimization of thermal management strategies for GPUs.
