This document discusses using microinverter data from Enphase systems to characterize photovoltaic modules and identify underperformance. Microinverter data provides detailed performance data at the individual module level. The approach infers site orientation metadata like tilt and azimuth by correlating current output with clear sky irradiance models. It also infers module metadata like voltage and current references by analyzing output trends. Together this allows visualization of module performance over time and identification of issues. The analysis does not require external sensors or site visits, using only the microinverter data, with the goal of automatically monitoring many systems.
This document presents a two-part study on temperature coefficients and thermal uniformity of PV modules and plants:

Part 2 determines climate-specific thermal model coefficients for PVsyst in Phoenix, Arizona based on a year of module performance data. The coefficients vary by technology and mounting, with polymer modules having higher coefficients than glass modules. For c-Si in Phoenix, the recommended coefficients are Uc=25.46 W/m2K and Uv=4.31 W/m3K

Boiler performance optimization using process neural networkSandeep Mishra
The important issue in the modern thermal power plant is to develop methodology concept algorithm technologies for designing a control system which must be able to evolve, self develop. self organized and self evaluated and to self improve. Although linear model can provide acceptable performance for many systems they may be unsuitable for non linearity. So it is highly required for a model that reflect the non liner relationship between cause and effect variable. Implementation of soft sensor in neural network estimate process data using self organizing neural network. Here basic requirement of design an neuron control with soft sensor are the knowledge of fundamental relationship of process variable and the parameter in the question .It is called a process neural network which is an extension of traditional neural network in which the input and output are time variant. So the data processing is better than traditional neural network so it is highly suitable to minimize heat loss at blow down station and increase its ability by operating at peak.

The system allows remote monitoring and control of multiple greenhouses to improve yields without requiring on-site labor.

Design and optimization of cost-effective coldproof portable enclosures for p...IJECEIAES
Based on the International Electrotechnical Commission standards, the electronic devices in the industrial class (e.g., integrated circuits or batteries) can only operate at the ambient temperature between -40°C and 85°C. For the human-involved regions in Alaska, Northern Canada, and Antarctica, extreme cold condition as low as -55°C might affect sensing electronic devices utilized in the scientific or industrial applications. In this paper, we propose a design and optimization methodology for the selfheating portable enclosures, which can warm up the inner space from -55°C for encasing the low-cost industrial-class electronic devices instead of expensive military-class ones to work reliably within their allowed operating temperature limit. Among the other options, ceramic thermal resistors are selected as the heating elements inside the enclosure. The placement of the thermal resistors is studied with the aid of thermal modelling for the single heating device by using the curve fitting technique to achieve uniform temperature distribution within the enclosure. To maintain the inner temperature above -40°C but with the least power consumption from the thermal resistors, we have developed a control system based on the fuzzy logic controller. For validation, we have utilized COMSOL Multiphysics software and then one prototyped enclosure along with the fuzzy control system. Our experimental measurement exhibits its efficacy compared to the other design options.

Thermal management of electronics spans the spectrum of handheld devices with no air cooling to rack servers in data centers. Even though methodologies needed for design can be different for each class of electronics cooling problem, proactive engineering at early stage is a common mantra widely accepted in the thermal management community. This presentation will look into the technical and practical challenges associated with implementing a wholistic thermal design approach across a supply chain spanning different companies. With the above as a motivation, the talk will introduce simulation based methodologies for implementing a chip-to-system co-design methodology. Specific topics include abstraction methods pertinent to system, board, Package and Chip. The role of compact modeling, which is an effective tool for communication across domain expertise as well as organizational boundaries will also be discussed. Most importantly, the talk will address the needs of thermal engineers interested in implementing solutions at their organization as well as beneficiaries whose success is vested in cooler, faster and user friendly end products.

Research paper - Improving Energy Efficiency Of Bitcoin Mining ProcessorIdhanta Kakkar
Abstract: Bitcoin is a very successful digital currency. Important question that Bitcoin miners need to consider is whether the investment in a new piece of hardware will pay off, versus simply buying the BTC on an exchange. It is embarrassing to buy a bitcoin mining ring and never recoup the original BTC cost in the profits, especially since maintaining the rigs requires round the clock monitoring and considerable energy bills. A simple solution is to evaluate the return of the mining operation in terms of BTC. Here we look at how the Goldstrike 1 miner works to be energy efficient. We also take a look at various cooling techniques that would help reduce heat radiation and in turn reduce energy consumption. A strategic placement of heat detector systems is also needed for large mining farms, that will be discussed as well.

Supply Insensitivity Temperature Sensor for Microprocessor Thermal Monitoring...IOSR Journals
This document describes a temperature sensor for monitoring microprocessor temperature using delays in CMOS inverters. It has two key features: 1) It uses a simple one-point calibration method rather than a two-point calibration to account for process variations between sensors. 2) It employs two delay-locked loops (DLLs) - one to generate temperature-independent delay references and one as a time-to-digital converter to compare delays - enabling high bandwidth temperature monitoring. The sensor was fabricated in 0.13um CMOS and tested, showing measurement errors within +/-4°C over a 0-100°C range. ADC-SAR is used to convert delay measurements to digital temperature readings.

A Novel Methodlogy For Thermal Ananalysis & 3-Dimensional Memory Integrationijait
The semiconductor industry is reaching a fascinating confluence in several evolutionary trends that will likely lead to a number of revolutionary changes in the design, implementation, scaling, and the use of computer systems. However, recently Moore’s law has come to a stand-still since device scaling beyond 65 nm is not practical. 2D integration has problems like memory latency, power dissipation, and large foot-print. 3D technology comes as a solution to the problems posed by 2D integration. The utilization of 3D is limited by the problem of temperature crisis. It is important to develop an accurate power profile extraction methodology to design 3D structure. In this paper, design of 3D integration of memory is considered and hence the static power dissipation of the memory cell is analysed in transistor level and is used to accurately model the inter-layer thermal effects for 3D memory stack. Subsequently, packaging of the chip is considered and modelled using an architecture level simulator. This modelling is intended to analyse the thermal effects of 3D memory, its reliability and lifetime of the chip, with greater accuracy

FVCAG is a formal verification driven framework for power modeling and verification of IPs. It uses a single formal verification run to determine the preferred input pin conditions for accurate power modeling of IPs as well as identify any instances in a design where those conditions are violated. The framework was experimentally evaluated on an industry microprocessor design and found to determine power modeling criteria for standard cells and macros more quickly and with fewer errors compared to manual approaches. It identified the correct input conditions for power modeling in under a minute across thousands of IP instances.
We introduced FreqLeak, an efficient method for post-silicon leakage power characterization in a system. We advocate supplementing wafer test with FreqLeak.

1) The document describes empirically derived power models for uncore elements like the Power Bus and memory controllers of IBM's POWER8 server processor.
2) Using a small set of activity markers like read, write, retry and snoop events along with microbenchmarks, the models can predict uncore power with up to 6% error.
3) These abstract power models allow more accurate dynamic power management by the chip compared to using a constant worst-case uncore power, potentially enabling a 5% CPU frequency boost.
Presented approaches for generation of multiple clock gating domain parameterized PVT independent power abstracts for large IP blocks. We accomplish the gating domain parameterization through separation of the attribution of switching due to each single domain through a marking and tracing process, thereby precluding the need for separate domain by domain simulation to achieve the parameterization.
Experimental results comparing proposed approach on IP blocks of varying sizes from a real industry strength microprocessor design clearly highlight accuracy impact while keeping run time and model size increase in an acceptable range. In terms of extensions, we are exploring approaches where we could preserve each of the domains independently, for which we are looking into formulations based on constructing clock gating domain conflict hyper graphs and coloring them to determine domain interactions.

2. Motivation
Supplying and dissipating power in a chip has been a
module and chip design issue
Scaled devices with higher power density are hot,
especially with large, multi-finger FETs and this can be a
reliability issue
- Self-heating of devices during normal circuit operation is becoming
significant causing BEOL reliability and EM wear out issues.
Localized self heating is a serious concern that should be
managed across IP types by the design methodology in
high-performance chip design.
- Need to manage how this heat is dissipated through devices, wires,
and substrate
3. Main Idea
Comprehensive Framework containing different
solution approaches to assess and mitigate
self -heating issues in high performance
designs.
Framework brings together workload specific
switching data, detailed power models, and
thermal modeling to help assess self heating
impacts from an early stage to a detailed sign-
off stage.
Encapsulated self heating APIs built on top of
the various analysis techniques to guide design
optimization and closure tools to be self-
heating aware.
Efficient and Accurate in being able to predict
overheating at the time of macro construction
at a fraction of time with comparable accuracy
to detailed field solver based approaches, and
hardware measurements.

Activity Processing
Uses activity data generated at higher levels of design

macro, while considering the mapping between logical and physical
hierarchies.
RTH Characterization
Computes the effective thermal resistance (Rth) from the
schematic / layout of the standard cell considering topology of the cell and the
finger, fin count and stores it into the power rule for the standard cell.

Calculates increase in temperature above ambient,
DeltaT efficiently using thermal resistance, Rth, and the switching
information. Computes the power by intelligently using the workload
specific switching data along with assertions to ensure adequate
coverage. Provides these data efficiently to the various applications
like design optimization
Self Heating Aware Design Optimization
Design optimization step addresses self heating in both
the construction phase and as a fix up step, where the objective would
be to address any self heating violations without impacting the timing
and with minimal area overhead. Uses the high switching and deltaT
information through the self heating API and does steps like
sharpening input slews, changing power level of the gates, in order to
minimize the self-heating violations.

5. Analytical Model for Self Heating Computation
Analytical model that computes the deltaT using the area and perimeter component, which makes it
possible to compute deltaT with fairly high accuracy to be used during the design construction phase.
Ambient
• Rth is thermal resistance (deg C / W), a constant between
device temperature increase and dissipated Power
• DT=Rth x Power
• DT is proportional to the dissipated power with a
proportionality constant of Rth
• Gth=1/Rth, thermal conductivity
• Rth x Cth determines self-heating time constant
• Cth can be thought of as “heat capacity”
