Everyone knows blood is essential to the human body. But who would have thought computers would start to utilize this same technique?

Apparently super-company IBM is looking for a solution to the problem a lot of computers have these days – the more powerful the technology inside of it, the hotter it runs and the more energy it requires to cool down.

One idea is to cool computers the way the body cools its brain – through fluid, i.e. “blood.” They built a computer chip that contains tiny channels that would circulate a fluid past all electronic components to cool them down, probably an electrolyte of sorts. As it passes through, the fluid would dissipate heat and deliver energy to the chips.

Keep an eye out for this awesome new invention! It could mean a lot more powerful computers in the future.
