20110058637 | PRESSURE CONTROL UNIT AND METHOD FACILITATING SINGLE-PHASE HEAT TRANSFER IN A COOLING SYSTEM - A pressure control unit and method are provided for facilitating single-phase heat transfer within a liquid-based cooling system. The pressure control unit includes a pressure vessel containing system coolant, and a pressurizing mechanism associated with the pressure vessel. A coolant line couples system coolant in the pressure vessel in fluid communication with the coolant loop of the cooling system, and a regulator mechanism couples to the pressurizing mechanism to maintain pressure within the pressure vessel at or above a defined pressure threshold, thus maintaining pressure within the coolant loop above the pressure threshold. The defined pressure threshold is set to facilitate system coolant within the coolant loop remaining single-phase throughout an operational temperature range of the system coolant within the coolant loop. More particularly, the pressure threshold is set to ensure pressure of system coolant within the coolant loop remains above the coolant's saturation pressure at maximum operational temperature. | 03-10-2011 |
