Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Thermal management of high-power dissipation semiconductor devices has been a great challenge due to increasing power density and overloading conditions. Semiconductor chip temperature within a specified limit must be ensured to guarantee smooth operation and maintain lifetime. Water-cooled aluminum cold plates have been the cooling choice in high power semiconductor cooling due to their robustness, cooling efficiency and reliability. However, the limited amount of wet surface area of conventional cooling channels restricts further heat transfer enhancement possibilities to meet the increasing cooling demand. Metamaterial based 3D printed structures offer much more cooling surfaces, compared to the conventional channel designs, within the same volume and can therefore provide significantly higher thermal performance. In this work, the thermal resistance of aluminum cold plates manufactured with different metamaterial structures has been experimentally and numerically evaluated targeting a significant enhancement of heat transfer and reduction of hotspot temperatures. The improved thermal and hydrodynamic performances presented in this work demonstrate the potential of metamaterial structures for high power semiconductor cooling.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
