Abstract: A method of manufacturing includes producing a gradient coil assembly having one or more cooling channels for a magnetic resonance imaging system by a process that includes printing a cooling channel template having a first end, a second end, and a hollow passage extending between the first end and the second end, disposing a dielectric material over at least a portion of the cooling channel template to generate a dielectric layer having the cooling channel template, and removing the cooling channel template from the dielectric layer to thereby produce the one or more cooling channels within the dielectric layer such that the one or more cooling channels have a pattern corresponding to a geometry of the cooling channel template.

Abstract: A cooling assembly includes a body configured to be placed into thermal contact with a heat source and one or more non-planar, hermetic walls disposed within the body. The one or more non-planar hermetic walls extending around, enclosing, and defining a cooling channel configured to carry cooling fluid through the body such that the cooling fluid contacts internal surfaces of the cooling channel inside the body. The assembly including one or more enhancement structures disposed within the body and coupled with the one or more non-planar hermetic walls. The one or more enhancement structures shaped to change a flow path of the cooling fluid as the cooling fluid moves within the cooling channel and shaped to increase a surface area contacted by the cooling fluid within the cooling channel.
