Cooperative Agreement

Overview

Grant Description
Jetcool Technologies Inc., DE-FOA-0002852 (COOLERCHIPS) (SBIR/STTR) new award.
Control #: 2852-1525.
Project title: Sub-One PUE through Silicon Cooling Efficiency.

Jetcool Technologies will improve the concentration of heat so that heat rejection to ambient becomes less energy and resource intensive. For example, through higher coolant temperatures and reduce the needed electricity by improving the fundamental efficiency at which the compute devices run.
Funding Goals
PROJECTS FUNDED UNDER THE COOLING OPERATIONS OPTIMIZED FOR LEAPS IN ENERGY, RELIABILITY AND CARBON HYPEREFFICIENCY FOR INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEMS (COOLERCHIPS) PROGRAM WILL DEVELOP NOVEL HIGH PERFORMANCE, HIGH RELIABILITY COOLING SYSTEMS FOR COMPUTE ELECTRONICS. THESE COOLING SYSTEMS WILL ENABLE A NEW CLASS OF POWER-DENSE COMPUTATIONAL SYSTEMS, DATA CENTERS, AND MODULAR EDGE SYSTEMS THAT WILL BE COOLED USING 5% OR LESS OF THE IT LOAD AT ANY LOCATION IN THE UNITED STATES AT ANY TIME OF THE YEAR.

Title
Sub-One PUE through Silicon Cooling Efficiency
Abstract
To achieve a quantum step in data center efficiency, new thermal management technologies must be coupled to the devices they cool. This proposal seeks to build on recent observations that microconvective cooling not only functions as a high-performance chip cooling technique with the potential for a low PUE, but is also capable of increasing the intrinsic efficiency of the silicon processors themselves by 8-10%. By optimizing the system efficiency with the processor efficiency through intelligent cooling solutions, dramatic leaps in data center efficiency become possible.
