Prof. Damena Agonafer, Director of the NEIT Lab, was an invited speaker at the 12th International Conference of the Materials Research Society, held in Kigali, Rwanda. Prof. Agonafer’s talk, delivered as part of the Sustainable Electronics track, addressed the critical challenges in next-generation thermal management technologies for state-of-the-art GPUs and CPUs used in AI/ML workloads […]
Kidus Guye presented his work on designing and modeling a novel hollow micropillar evaporator for high AI/ML workloads in state-of-the-art data centers for low PUE two-phase cooling. This work is part of the ARPA-e COOLERCHIPS project geared towards developing next-generation liquid cooling technologies with significantly low junction-to-coolant thermal resistance, with PUE lower than 1.02. Also
Dr. Vivek Pandey joins the NEIT Lab as a PostDoc to primarily support the effort to develop evaporative cooling cold plates for data centers and also advise the graduate students on other two-phase cooling technologies. He brings extensive experience building hybrid-cooled data centers and heat sink topology optimization from the National University of Singapore. We

Kidus Guye presented his work titled ‘Development of a Novel Direct-to-Chip Evaporator using Hollow Micropillars for Thermal Management in High Heat Flux Applications’ at NASA’s 34th Thermal & Fluids Analysis Workshop held in College Park from August 21-24. His work was very well received and he received second place in the poster presentation for a
Emils Jurcik joins NEIT lab this fall 2023 as a PhD student. He is co-advised by Prof. Samuel Graham and Prof. Agonafer. He got his undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering at Northwestern University and worked in the industry for a year prior to joining UMD. He will work on thermal management and thermal measurements of
