It was found that an exponential fit better predicted the wall temperature profile obtained for supercritical CO2. Moreover, for conditions close to the pseudo-critical point, the correlations failed to predict the supercritical heat transfer coefficient but fit well in the gas-like supercritical CO2 conditions. It was also found that water has a better ability to remove heat under the conditions studied in this paper with smaller pressure drop. However, for water the pressure drop was a significant portion of the operational pressure.","PeriodicalId":193052,"journal":{"name":"2020 19th IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm)","volume":"2015 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132950051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Defense electronics may often be subjected to high-g acceleration loads in addition to extremes of temperature, humidity and prolonged storage. Underfills are often used to provide protection and survivability expectations under extreme thermos-mechanical loading, CTE mismatches, moisture. There is a dearth of computational tools to allow for the prediction of the initiation of damage and the progression of damage at the underfill-interfaces under high-g shock loads. Defense electronics and military systems have longer lifetimes in the neighborhood of 20-40 years and higher reliability requirements. New packaging architectures, which often push the edge of the envelope in terms of miniaturization, cannot be compared with the prior generation electronic systems and lack decades of historical data to provide robust proof of their survivability. Tools and techniques are needed to determine the failure envelopes for new component technologies for operation under high acceleration loads in current and next generation military systems. In this paper, the interface fracture toughness of the PCB-UF interface has been studied under exposure to high temperature storage. A three-point composite beam specimen has been used to study the interface fracture toughness. The bi-material strips of PCB/Underfill were thermally aged for 10 days, 30 days and 60 days at temperatures ranging from 100°C to 150°C and then the sample specimens were subjected to quasi-static three-point bending to observe fracture parameters and to determine interfacial delamination of bi-material strips. A 2D Digital Image Correlation (DIC) method was also employed to understand the Crack tip opening displacement (CTOD), crack initiation and the fracture toughness, CTOD were compared with the aging schedule and temperature.","PeriodicalId":193052,"journal":{"name":"2020 19th IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm)","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116639649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stress sensors made with wide bandgap semiconductors such as 4H silicon carbide (4H-SiC) offer the advantage of much higher temperature operation [1] and can be utilized to monitor stresses in high-voltage, high-power SiC devices. The piezoresistive behavior of such sensors is characterized by piezoresistive (pi) coefficients, which must be calibrated before the stress measurement. In the prior study [2], the piezoresistive coefficients of 4H-SiC were calibrated only at room temperature, but 4H-SiC tends to be operated at high temperature. Thus, the piezoresistive coefficients under different temperatures are required.This work focuses on experimental study of the piezoresistive coefficients at different temperatures, from 300k to 450k. Calibration has been performed using four-point bending method with strip on flex circuit [3] specimen. A special four-point bending apparatus integrated into an environmental chamber is utilized.","PeriodicalId":193052,"journal":{"name":"2020 19th IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm)","volume":"468 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116787958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Large amounts of applications from various businesses has been migrated to Cloud. Availability is one of the key considerations for end customers when adopting Cloud Service, so CSPs (Cloud Service Providers) are pursuing ever higher standard of SLA (Service-Level Agreement) to accommodate the need. Especially when considering VM (Virtual Machine) based Cloud Service, where resources in one physical server are virtualized and shared among multiple tenants, a server crash would be a huge impact to tenants' business. One solution is to establish an effective and accurate method to predict server crash in advance, so that workloads can be migrated to a healthy server before impacting the service. It is extremely challenging to deliver accurate prediction, since server crash occurs due to all kinds of failures with most of them occurring randomly and suddenly.This paper proposes a smart server crash prediction method for triggering early warning and migration in Cloud Service data center. The proposed server crash perdition is developed based on hardware, firmware and software system information collected from low-level hardware indicators and kernel status to upper-level system logs in OS (Operation System). Machine learning algorithms are adopted in logs analysis and failure prediction. Random Forests algorithm is chosen upon all providing the best precision. The final proposed method is deployed and evaluated in Baidu's data center, and it achieved 93.33% and 87.33% precision in providing Minutes-level and Hours-level ahead-of-time warning in server crash prediction.","PeriodicalId":193052,"journal":{"name":"2020 19th IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124850905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Design methodology implemented revolved around flow isolation in channel groupings divided vertically in orientation to the heat source. By interchanging the flow paths of the top and bottom groups of channels halfway through the length of the channel, relatively cooler air is allowed to flow over the heat source contact region on the back end of the channel. Preliminary CFD analysis was performed, and two designs demonstrating the greatest enhancement of heat removal, as well as a comparable straight channel design for comparison, were manufactured from AlSi10Mg powder using direct metal laser sintering. Experimental validation was performed using a custom air channel to deliver consistent flow conditions with ceramic AC strip heaters providing thermal dissipation into the channel. Thermal profiles were determined through temperature readings taken with type-K thermocouples at key locations on the channel and flow path. Flow inversion channels showed reduced thermal gradients across the simulated dies, over the straight channel design. However, this enhancement of heat removal comes at the cost of additional pressure drop.","PeriodicalId":193052,"journal":{"name":"2020 19th IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125492651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many surface modification methods have been developed and studied to improve boiling heat transfer performance by creating nano/micro-scale surface topologies to induce more nucleation sites that can be activated at lower wall superheat, hence improving the HTC.In the current work, the effect of the boiling surface aging on pool boiling performance enhancement is investigated through a repeatability study. First, the design, development, and calibration of a high-accuracy pool boiling apparatus with a relatively large boiling surface area is detailed. This apparatus was subsequently used to investigate the effect of the surface oxidation and contamination on the pool boiling performance for bare copper surfaces. Tests were performed at the saturated conditions using deionized water at atmospheric pressure. The surfaces were tested seven times which amounted to 40 hours of testing. The experiment results demonstrated that the surface aging had a significant effect on the HTC, which reached up to 22% of improvement compared to the freshly prepared surface. However, its effect on CHF is minimal with at least 25 hours of tests are required to get repeatable results within 5%.","PeriodicalId":193052,"journal":{"name":"2020 19th IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129113766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the warpage is still an issue when the fan-out panel level packaging is becoming larger and thinner. In this research, the size 510 mm x 410 mm of the fan-out panel level packaging is investigated to analyze the warpage performance during the compression molding process, carrier de-bonding process, redistribution layer (RDL) process, and grinding process. The finite element modeling is conducted to calculate the warpage behavior with a continues step of fan-out manufacture process. The fan-out panel level packaging with support core carrier and without support core carrier are discussed in this paper. The structure with support core carrier is designed to control the warpage during the manufacture process. It is found that elastic modulus and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of EMC are the important factors to reduce the warpage. In the EMC formation, the increasing filler content of EMC can enhance the elastic modulus, the thermal conductivity, and decreasing CTE. Therefore, we can select the appropriate EMC materials or design the formation of EMC to decrease the thermal mismatch between EMC/Si and EMC/RDL. The results also revealed that the carrier material could affect the warpage due to the residual stress. To decrease the residual stress for achieving the flat warpage, the different types of carriers are also studied. Eventually, the structure with support core carrier, EMC materials, and carrier materials are presented to obtain the optimal warpage performance in the fan-out panel level packaging.","PeriodicalId":193052,"journal":{"name":"2020 19th IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130120182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aerosol-Jet Printing technology has shown potential for additive printing of flexible electronics on both planar and non-planar surfaces. The width of the needed lines can varied through control of the process parameters allowing the printing of very narrow traces of the order of 5-10μm in width. Reported research till date primarily concentrates on the single-layer printing with consideration of various parameters like humidity, temperature and strain rate. However, conventional PCBs are multi-layered and for the flexible PCB to be used in real-world it is important to have multi-layer stacking of interconnects and establish z-axis interconnections through vias as currently in the conventional PCBs. Use of additive methods such as aerosol printing method provides a great amount of design freedom without the need for specialized masks to establish the interconnects for different inks available like silver, copper, and carbon. In this paper, the objective is to establish z-axis interconnections with the help of Aerosol printable silver ink and dielectric polyimide ink. The silver ink would be using the ultrasonic atomizer to print, and the pneumatic atomizer has to be used for the polyimide ink. The printed conductive lines have been subjected to different sintering conditions and then tested for the parameters like resistance across the interconnects and shear load to failure.","PeriodicalId":193052,"journal":{"name":"2020 19th IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129794637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
