Heat Transfer

Dedicated wind tunnels with computer connectivity allows the measurement of heat rejection and internal and external fluid pressure drop using the component and engine cooling module heat transfer test. This credible data serves as the base for cooling module simulations further supporting Climatic Vehicle Wind Tunnel Testing. Using this information, the maximization of the individual heat exchanger & cooling module system performance becomes possible. This provides a simple, easily repeatable test which can be performed in continuous conformance testing to ensure the provision of the expected heat transfer over the entire time span of the product by the TitanX Heat Exchanger.

Durability Testing

High application temperature and pressure destructive forces on cooling systems can be reproduced successfully at TitanX owing to our best in class facility. We strive continuously to ensure the upgradation of our testing capabilities in order to accurately simulate the increasing temperatures of modern engines as well as their applications.

Vibration Test Facilities

Simulation of years of usage can be facilitated in a matter of hours on a test bench by the TitanX engineering team after the collection of test track data. We provide 3 types of vibration tables wherein pressurization & thermal cycle load can be added to vibration testing for better simulation of field conditions:

Degree of Freedom (DOF)
6 DOF & NARLY
TitanX’s 7 DOF

TitanX’s 3 translational & 3rotational DOFs with a chassis twist is known as NARLY. It incorporates load cells for all actuators thereby providing us with excellent capability for modal analysis of complete cooling modules as mounted in a vehicle.

Field and Laboratory Data Recording

Jamestown Division’s field and laboratory data recording has a diverse range of capabilities like:

eDAQ system with 48 HLS
8 thermocouple and 24 low level channels conditioning
Sensors for 50 acceleration
40 strain channels pressure
Displacement transducers

Data processing is done using Glyphworks and inField, while modal analysis is performed using ME-Scope.

Chemistry/Metallurgical Laboratory

At TitanX, we are equipped with state of the art, two staffed chemical and metallurgical laboratories capable of providing intelligent internal & external customer support for microscopic, thermal, chemical and physical analysis of metals, polymers and elastomers. Our simulation models are incorporated with this data as well. The metrology laboratories can provide layout inspection on cooling modules and components to help ensure proper installation.

Vehicle Climatic Wind Tunnel

Our climatic wind tunnel facility is located in Jamestown, NY USA which is used for the development of engine cooling & climate control systems for heavy truck manufacturers. TitanX engineers use this high-quality facility under controlled conditions to optimize product performance under a wide range of operating conditions. These climate-controlled wind tunnels can also be used for the climatic testing of other vehicular systems such as fuel, brakes and other non-vehicle applications. We work with a highly skilled team of engineers experienced in working with customers for the development of standard as well as customized testing programs.

NVIDIA TITAN X Review: The Pascal Beast Unleashed

NVIDIA dropped a bomb a couple of weeks back and shocked almost everyone in the enthusiast community with the surprise announcement of the new, Pascal-based TITAN X. If you missed our original coverage, the story went something like this: NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang lost a bet, and out of the blue went and gave away a few TITAN X cards at a special AI event that was taking place at Stanford University. That may sound a little far-fetched, but the way this launch shook out, it seems somewhat plausible.

Regardless, as soon as the announcement was posted, we’re sure many of you had two questions in mind – how fast is it? And what’s the deal with the GP102? Thankfully, we can answer both of those questions and more for you today. We’ve just finished putting the brand new NVIDIA TITAN X through its paces and have the full scoop for you laid out on the pages ahead. First up though, some specifications and a quick tour of the card…

In light of its specifications, the new TITAN X seems like an absolute beast. In comparison to a GeForce GTX 1080, for example, the TITAN X has 1,204 additional CUDA cores (3,584 vs. 2,560), more texture units (224 vs. 160), and more ROPs (96 vs. 64). It also has more L2 cache (3,072KB vs. 2,048KB) and a wider memory bus (384-bit vs. 256-bit).

The new TITAN X, however, has lower base and boost GPU clocks. Its effective data rate for the memory is the same though, and the TITAN X has more memory on board too — 12GB vs. 8GB on the GeForce GTX 1080. We should note that the GP102 as it exists on the TITAN X is not the full implementation of the chip. Two SMs have been disabled. The full GP102 has a grand total of 3,840 CUDA cores, as evidenced by the Quadro P6000 that was announced a few days ago.

NVIDIA GP102 Block Diagram — 2 SMs Disabled On TITAN X

The GPU at the heart of the TITAN X has a base clock of 1,417MHz and a boost clock of 1,531MHz. The GDDR5X memory on the card is clocked at 5GHz for an effective data rate of 10Gbps. At its reference clocks, the TITAN X offers up to 480GB/s of memory bandwidth and a peak texture fillrate of 317.4 GigaTexels/s, all within a 250 watt power envelope. The card requires a single 8-pin and single 6-pin supplemental power feed.

Pascal TITAN X — Front and Back

Aesthetically, the new TITAN X borrows heavily from the GTX 1080, minus some silver and plus some additional black. What you see pictured above is the only version of the TITAN X that will be for sale. Partners won’t be offering the TITAN X and it will be available only through NVIDIA.com. The cooler, however, may (or may not) change at some point to remove the GeForce GTX branding.

Like the GTX 1080, the new TITAN X has a faceted fan-shroud with black and silver elements, a thin, sleek modular back-plate, and an aggressive overall design language that looks great to us. Should you use TITAN X cards in SLI, in adjacent slots, the rear portion of the backplate is also easily removable to allow for better airflow between the cards (we have additional pictures in the gallery below if you’d like to see what the back of the card looks like with half the plate removed).

Vapor Chamber Cooling, Dual Power Connectors…

NVIDIA’s TITAN X is outfitted with a die cast aluminum body which is machine finished and heat treated for additional strength and rigidity. The top edge of the card we received features the signature, lighted «GeForce GTX» logo, but — as we’ve mentioned — that may not be permanent.

The thermal solution on the TITAN X is just like the 1080’s. It features a radial fan and a relatively large vapor chamber linked to a dense heatsink fin array, also like previous-gen flagship cards. The fan pulls air in from above, blows it across the heatsink, and then vents the heated air outside the chassis. At the rear of the card, a second, small heatsink helps wick heat away from the VRM.

The TITAN X features a 7+2-phase dual-FET power array for its GPU and memory, extra capacitance in its filtering circuitry, and a power delivery network on its PCB that has been optimized for low impedance. All told, these elements result in increased power efficiency and peak-to-peak voltage noise reduction over previous-gen solutions.

The TITAN X Can Power Up To Four Displays Simultaneously

Like NVIDIA’s other Pascal-based graphics cards, the outputs on the TITAN X consist of a trio of DisplayPorts, an HDMI 2.0b output, and a dual-link DVI output. The DisplayPorts are 1.2 certified and DP 1.3/1.4 ready, which enables support for 4K displays at 120Hz, 5K displays at 60Hz, and 8K displays at 60Hz (using two cables and multi-stream transport). Up to four display outputs can be used simultaneously for multi-monitor or VR setups.

Enough with the technical jargon; let’s hit the benchmarks. ..

NVIDIA started selling the GeForce GTX TITAN X on March 17, 2015 for a suggested retail price of $999. This is a desktop graphics card based on the Maxwell 2.0 architecture with a 28 nm process technology. It has 12 GB of GDDR5 memory with a frequency of 1753 MHz, a 384-bit bus, which provides a bandwidth of 7 Gb / s.

The card occupies 2 slots, connected via PCIe 3.0 x16 interface. The reference version is 267mm long, 111mm wide and 38mm high. The card requires one 6-pin and one 8-pin auxiliary power cables, the claimed maximum power consumption is 250 watts. nine0003
