How to choose the right tubing material for a liquid cooling system for thermal management of electronics

The thermal solutions market is making a gradual transition to the use of liquid cooling for thermal management of electronics. But, at the same time, there is a growing unease over the reliability of liquid cooling system. The main concerns involve pump lifetime, radiator corrosion, cold plate leakage. Thermal engineers can spend many hours designing and testing these components. However, one critical component that is often not in this mix is the tubing used in the cooling loop.

Liquid Cooling and Two Phase Cooling: A Case Study to Examine the Tradeoffs for a “Best” Solution

Electronics Cooling has published a study by Anurag Gupta, David H. Altman and Stephen J. Pereira to demonstrate the trade-offs between liquid and two-phase cooling schemes for small-channel heat sinks in high heat flux applications.

The study is a fascinating examination of the topic and has some interesting results that are worth noting. Applications for liquid cooling are growing and understand the tradeoffs in different approaches is a critical element in determining an engineers best options.
