    摘要: An electronic module is provided having an integrated refrigerant evaporator assembly coupled to a closed-cycle cooling system, as well as a method for controlling the system. The module and integrated assembly includes a plurality of integrated circuit chips arrayed on a substrate. The evaporator assembly is disposed over the chips and substrate such that a chamber is formed between the assembly and the substrate within which the chips reside. A lower plate of the assembly has a plurality of jet orifices which direct coolant onto individual chips of the plurality of chips arrayed on the substrate. In addition, the lower plate includes a plurality of channels formed between at least some of the jet orifices. The plurality of channels remove coolant from the chamber after the coolant has been heated by impinging upon the integrated circuit chips. A control system is provided to prevent excessive pressure from building up within the assembly at startup and shutdown of the closed-cycle cooling system.

In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a heat sink member with a surface for making thermal contact with the electronic device. The heat sink member has a plurality of channels for carrying coolant fluid. The plurality of channels are positioned in a first group and a second group such that coolant flow alternates across the member. At least one channel of the plurality of channels has a fluid flow cross-section that varies over a length thereof to selectively enhance a heat transfer coefficient of the coolant fluid within the channel and thereby produce a more uniform temperature at the surface of the heat sink member when making thermal contact with the electronic device.

    摘要: A cold plate for cooling electronic modules and devices is disclosed which incorporates an intersecting flow network. The flow network is designed and devised such that flow paths are arranged in a rectilinear fashion surrounding blocks of material which act as heat sinks. Supply conduits and return conduits for supplying and returning cooling fluid are disposed orthogonally to the flow directions within the flow paths and such that each supply channel is circumscribed by a plurality of return channels, and each return channel is circumscribed by a plurality of supply channels. The arrangement of the supply and return channels insures the shortest possible flow path for the cooling fluid thereby insuring maximum cooling efficiency and minimizing and localizing the temperature rise in the cooling fluid during passage from the supply conduit to the return conduit. With a minimum temperature rise of the cooling fluid over a short flow path, conduction in the cold plate insures optimum uniformity of cooling to the electronic components. The components of the cold plate either may be assembled and clamped or may be rigidly affixed to one another by means of either soldering or braising to form the structure defining the flow channels, conduits and manifold connections necessary for the consistent and uniform circulation of the cooling fluid.
