Dual sided thermal solution ensures supreme system performance

With combination of high end CPU computing and high bandwidth PCIe bus power generate numerous heat, STACKRACK emphasizes on providing exceeding thermal design guarantee superior system performance under critical environment. HORUS422A innovatively adopts dual sided thermal solution, with copper heat spreader directly touches the heat source components processor and RAID card to absorb the heat rapidly, heat then transfer to heat pipe; heat pipe is two-phase heat transfer involves the liquid-vapor phase change of a working fluid which can provide high efficiency heat transmission. The aluminum heat sink dissipates the heat into surrounding air promptly. One side thermal solution is mainly for Core i7-6700TE 35W processor and the other side is to dissipate the heat for RocketRAID 840A RAID card. With unique thermal design, HORUS422A can ensure high performance and reliability under harsh environment.

 The HORUS422A offers highly effectively heat conductive and heat convective thermal solutions to meet the demands of customers' extended temperature requirements. The heat conductive solutions uses an aluminum flat mass to place in direct contact with the processor and chipset, the heat from chips then transfers it to the case of the system. In addition, the convective thermal solutions introduce airflow directed to move across the surface of a fin style heatsink placed on top of the processor and chipset. This can be done with the aid of an appropriately sized fan placed in top of the fin style heatsink. Alternately, enclosure airflow can be routed to flow across a fin style heatsink.

Thermal Measurement

STACKRACK provides real lab testing figures to show how CPU performance is with each tailor made thermal kits as important references and design guide for system engineers. For system integration, the crucial challenge is the operation performance under high temperature, thus STACKRACK conducts long time experiments to make sure the superior testing result for all critical missions. By revealing temperature at processor T junction, processor die and heat sink, STACKRACK is able to analyses the thermal solution we designed achieves maximum efficacy and observe CPU performance. The high temperature testing takes 5.5 hours which at each temperature point we burn in HORUS422 for two hour, from +40 to +50°C.

Effective cooling solution for maximum heat dissipation:

STACKRACK implements unique cooling solution with copper heat spreader, pure copper heat pipe and aluminum heat sink for maximum heat dissipation. With the aluminum heat sink enclosure allows dual-sided heat dissipation. We especially adopt the physical property of copper and aluminum, the heat spreader touches the heat source - processor and chipset and absorbs the heat rapidly, the heat then transfer to heat pipe; heat pipe is two-phase heat transfer involves the liquid-vapor phase change of a working fluid, the aluminum heat sink dissipates the heat into surrounding air promptly. With the benefits of fanless design, HORUS422 can ensure high reliability and stability while working under wide range temperature from 5°C up to 50°C.

Patent Designed Aluminum Heat Sink

The heat sink is made by heat radiating material, which is aim to lowering the temperature by dissipating heat into the surrounding air. 96 % of aluminum.

Heat spreader

Heat spreader directly touches the power source area, which can absorb heat rapidly and transfer to heat pipe and allow the high efficiency heat pipe further bring out heat to upper heat sink enclosure.

NEW_STYLE_products_HORUS422A_Thermal02

Pure Copper Heat Pipe

The heat pipes are embedded in the heat sink to ensure 100% tight integration for superior heat dissipation. Especially adopts U shape copper heat pipe to fulfill utmost thermal conductivity, copper heat pipe transfers heat from the heat sources (e.g. CPU, chipset) to the heat sink over relatively long distance. Two-phase heat transfer involves the liquid-vapor phase change of a working fluid.
