The second heat-generating component is arranged in contact with the heat transfer member; and the heat transfer member dissipates the heat of the first heat-generating component and the second heat-generating component by being arranged in contact with a wall surface that constitutes the heat dissipation casing. | 2021-02-04 |
20210037676 | Re-Entrant Flow Cold Plate - A fluid-cooled re-entrant cold plate for thermal management of heat dissipating electronic devices or assemblies. The fluid leaves the cold plate's outer perimeter, fills a sealed cavity between the cold plate outer perimeter and the mating component/assembly, provides direct cooling of the electronic component, then re-enters the cold plate. | 2021-02-04 |
20210037677 | BLENDED OPERATION MODE FOR PROVIDING COOLING TO A HEAT LOAD - Conditioning systems and methods for providing cooling to a heat load can include an evaporative cooler arranged in a scavenger plenum with a recovery coil downstream of the evaporative cooler. The conditioning systems can operate in various modes, including an adiabatic mode and an evaporative mode, depending on outdoor air conditions. The systems can operate in a blended mode between the adiabatic mode and the evaporative mode by varying the distribution of return water from the recovery coil into at least partially isolated sections of a storage tank, and selectively directing cold water from the evaporative cooler into the tank. The mix of warm and cold water exiting the tank can be varied to maintain the cold-water supply at or near a set point temperature for the heat load. In an example, the systems can include a pre-cooler in the plenum upstream of the evaporative cooler for pre-conditioning the scavenger air. | 2021-02-04 |
