Research summary
AI-generated

Manohar Bongarala works on thermal management for electronics and data centers, focusing on how liquids boil and evaporate to remove heat from computer chips and servers. Recent work covers two-phase cooling systems (where a liquid partially turns to vapor to carry away heat more efficiently), microchannel heat sinks, and immersion or liquid cooling for high-power GPUs and AI data center hardware. This research combines experiments, imaging, and some data-driven (machine learning) analysis to understand and improve heat transfer processes like boiling and evaporation.
