1U Thermal Solution

Figure 9-1. 1U Collaboration Heatsink Performance Curves

Collaboration thermal solution Ψca (mean+3sigma) is computed to 0.319°C/W at the airflow of 15 CFM. As the Table 9-1shown when TLA is 40 °C, equation representing thermal solution of this heatsink is calculated as:

Y=0.319*X+40

where,

Y = Processor TCASE Value (°C)

X = Processor Power Value (W)

Table 9-2shows thermal solution performance is compliant with Intel® Xeon® processor E3-1280 (95W) TTV thermal profile specification. At the TDP (95W) with local ambient of 40°C, there is a 3.3°C margin.
