Dr. Jessica Townsend, assistant professor of mechanical engineering, and Dr. Rebecca J. Christianson, assistant professor of applied physics, both teaching at Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering in Needham, Mass., published a paper on their liquid-cooling research titled “Nanofluid Properties and Their Effects on Convective Heat Transfer in an Electronics Cooling Application."
The importance of their research plays out in finding ways to improve the performance of cold plates and heat exchangers to handle ever higher high heat load densities for electronics cooling.
