Dr. Black?s research has concentrated in three areas: thermal management of microelectronic packages, heat transfer from electrical systems, and modeling of fire development and smoke movement in building fires. The thermal management work has developed into the design of a cooling module that can be incorporated into a microelectronic device such as a cell phone, laptop computer, or radio. The module is capable of removing a large amount of heat from a small surface, such as a microprocessor chip used in all modern computing systems. The module uses a vibrating cell to generate numerous, micron-sized droplets of liquid that can be directed toward the heated surface where they evaporate and remove the generated heat. By effectively cooling the chip, the module improves the reliability of the component, and it maintains the surface temperature at acceptable levels. Other variations of the spray cooling module include a design that incorporates small microjets of air that improve the cooling efficiency.. Good.
