Abstract:
A collection of myths, mistakes, and "lessons learned" from practicing engineers involved in the field of electronic equipment cooling. Through anecdotes and stories based on his experiences at Tellabs Operations, Inc. Tony Kordyban covers basic dimensions of heat transfer concepts--mostly from real problems which were incorrectly solved at least once before a correct technique was applied.
