Abstract

This paper presents the development process of an internal liquid cooling system for center process unit (CPU) or graphics process unit (GPU), which can be installed inside the computer case. Commercial available computer aided design (CAD) software and rapid prototyping (RP) technology were used in this forward engineering process for the design and fabrication of the critical parts. Hereby this paper shows a general description of the components involved in CPU/GPU liquid cooling system. Then the experimental verification is presented on how the device was tested. The adequate working conditions obtained as well as the system performance trends are shown graphically
