Spray cooling to lower carbon footprint for data centres
Nanyang Technological University (NTU) researchers in Singapore say they have developed a more sustainable and green method for cooling down servers in data centres, potentially reducing both energy costs and carbon footprint by up to 26 per cent. Data centres in Singapore currently account for 7 per cent of the nation’s total electricity consumption. With […]

When refrigeration meets quantum physics
An international team of researchers has created a new cooling concept by combining thermodynamics with quantum theory. The team – consisting of researchers from TU Wien, in collaboration with FU Berlin, Nanyang Technological University in Singapore and the University of Lisbon – have discovered quantum effects can be used to cool a cloud of ultra-cold […]

Scientists create energy-saving ‘liquid window’
Scientists at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a liquid window panel that can block the sun to regulate solar transmission while reducing energy consumption in buildings. The NTU researchers found that by placing hydrogel-based liquid within glass panels, the window is able to trap thermal heat that can be released through […]
