Synthetic diamonds transfer heat better than metals.

My thoughts entirely.
No wonder NASA crashed a space vehicle on Mars due to unit conversions !!!

OK, OK.

The flow-temp rise constant is 2.3 in Liters/sec and degrees C.

NOW you can design the heat exchanger for me!

Heck a central heating heat exchanger may be a bit on the large side,
but certainly not enormous. This whole thing is 67 cm tall and 40 cm wide:

Delivers 28 kilowatt to hot tap water, and 23.5 kilowatt in heating
water heated from 30 to 50 degrees. Flue gases are cooled below boiling
to condense water vapour and get the heat from that.

That thing contains two heat exchangers (gas to heating water, and
heating water to tap water), the circulation pump, gas valve, fan for
combution air, and controller.

Reducting to chip size is left as an excercise...

Some questions:

1. How much percentage are synthetic diamonds better at transferring heat
than metals like copper and other metals in todays cooling devices for
computerchips ? A rough percentage estimate is good enough for me.

2. Does it make sense to use synthetic diamonds for cpu coolers or is there
another limiting factor, like maybe the ammount of heat that can be
transfered to the air ?

CPU cooling is not such a big deal in other than single chip
systems,
For other systems RAM cooling in more important
than CPU cooling.

Huh? Modern CPUs consume orders of magnitude more power than RAM
chips.

But that's only because RAM only even consumes power at
moron places like IBM Headquaters,
Everywhere else it consumes
300.05 Tera-ergs per fotrnight squared.

You're obviously an AT&Tt Moron who
just learned how to log into Xerox's Z files.

You haven't a clue but I'm not telling anyone anything that wasn't
obvious.

This semiconductor design space was explored by the US military about
10 years ago.
