Solving Energy Problems One Molecule at a Time - Associate Professor Jeffrey Grossman

    Description

    In this interview, Associate Professor Jeffrey Grossman discusses topics ranging from his work in material engineering to his love of ballroom dancing.

    Professor Grossman explains why material science is such an important instrument for tackling modern scientific issues and the ability to manipulate materials all the way down to the atom. 

     He explores how material science can be utilized in the development of energy conversion and storage, a useful tool for developing clean energy systems.

    “There are two dimensions that data centers have to make decisions about,” Christopher Knittel says. “One is how much of their load in any one time period is flexible. And two, how many hours, plus or minus, can they move that computation?”

    MIT News
    Ferveret’s cooling system submerges computer servers in a specialized liquid that absorbs heat much more efficiently than air from a fan. What makes the solution different from other liquid cooling systems are smaller bubbles at the surface of the server, which detach more frequently, accelerating the heat transfer process.
