摘要:
Apparatus and method are provided for facilitating cooling of an electronics rack employing an air delivery structure coupled to the electronics rack. The air delivery structure delivers air flow at a location external to the electronics rack and in a direction to facilitate mixing thereof with re-circulating exhausted inlet-to-outlet air flow from the air outlet side of the electronics rack to the air inlet side thereof. The delivered air flow is cooler than the re-circulating exhausted inlet-to-outlet air flow and when mixed with the re-circulating air flow facilitates lowering air inlet temperature at a portion of the air inlet side of the electronics rack, thereby enhancing cooling of the electronics rack.

Cold plate apparatuses and methods of fabrication are provided for facilitating cooling of an electronics component. The fabrication approach includes: forming a tube with a first metal and having first and second ends with a heat transfer region disposed therebetween; positioning the heat transfer region of the tube within a mold and casting a heat sink member around the tube by contacting a second metal in molten form over the tube, wherein the first and second metals react peritectically to form an alloy layer between the tube and the heat sink member, and a metallurgical bond is formed between the tube and heat sink member with cooling of the molten second metal; and controlling casting of the heat sink member to minimize a thickness of the alloy layer to enhance a heat transfer characteristic of the metallurgical bond formed between the tube and the heat sink member.

A cooling apparatus and method of fabrication are provided for facilitating removal of heat from a heat generating electronic device. The cooling apparatus includes a plurality of thermally conductive fins coupled to and projecting away from a surface to be cooled. The fins facilitate transfer of heat from the surface to be cooled. The apparatus further includes an integrated manifold having a plurality of inlet orifices for injecting coolant onto the surface to be cooled, and a plurality of outlet openings for exhausting coolant after impinging on the surface to be cooled. The inlet orifices and the outlet openings are interspersed in a common surface of the integrated manifold. Further, the integrated manifold and the surface to be cooled are disposed with the common surface of the manifold and the surface to be cooled in spaced, opposing relation, and with the plurality of thermally conductive fins disposed therebetween.

An inlet recirculation apparatus for an air moving device includes a housing defined by a wall extending from a base. The base includes an aperture therethrough receptive to alignment with an inlet of the air moving device. A plurality of flaps each pivotally extends radially outwardly from a center pivot to another corresponding pivot disposed around a perimeter of the wall. The center pivot is coaxial with a center of the aperture. Each flap moves to an open position due to air pressure from the air moving device causing air to flow into the inlet wherein each flap pivotally rotates about the center pivot and corresponding pivot at the wall, and moves to a closed position when air pressure from the air moving device ceases wherein a space between contiguous flaps is eliminated when each flap pivotally rotates to the closed position about the center pivot and corresponding pivot at the wall to prevent reverse airflow through the air moving device.
摘要:
Apparatus and methods are provided for microchannel cooling of electronic devices such as IC chips, which enable efficient and low operating pressure microchannel cooling of high power density electronic devices having a non-uniform power density distribution, which are mounted face down on a package substrate. For example, integrated microchannel cooler devices (or microchannel heat sink devices) for cooling IC chips are designed to provide uniform flow and distribution of coolant fluid and minimize pressure drops along coolant flow paths, as well as provide variable localized cooling capabilities for high power density regions (or “hot spots”) of IC chips with higher than average power densities.
摘要:
A method and apparatus is disclosed for liquid cooling an electronic device without wetting underside hardware of the electronic device and a substrate to which it is attached. In an exemplary embodiment, an electronic module substrate assembly includes a substrate, an electronic device electrically connected to the substrate, and an elastomer barrier. The barrier includes a cutout configured to sealably affix to chip edges defining the electronic device. The cutout provides fluid communication to a back surface of the electronic device exposed through the cutout while the barrier seals the substrate from such fluid communication.

An air flow system and method are provided which include a duct configured to mount either as an inlet or outlet duct to an electronics rack. When mounted to cover an air-intake side of the electronics rack, a supply air flow plenum is defined for directing conditioned air to the air-intake side. The duct includes a first air inlet at a first end for receiving the conditioned air, and is tapered from the first end to a second end thereof, with the supply plenum having a varying air flow cross-section. The duct further includes a second air inlet for providing supplemental room air to the plenum. The second inlet is disposed adjacent to the first inlet, thereby facilitating mixing of conditioned air with room air within the supply air flow plenum prior to delivery thereof to the air-intake side of the electronics rack.

A thermal dissipation assembly and method, and a cooled multi-drawer electronics rack are provided having a first cooling loop and a second cooling loop. The first cooling loop is disposed substantially within an electronics drawer and positioned to extract heat from an electronics module within the drawer. The first cooling loop further includes a first planar heat transfer surface. The second cooling loop is disposed substantially external to the electronics drawer and includes a second planar heat transfer surface. A biasing mechanism mechanically forces the first planar heat transfer surface and the second heat transfer surface coplanar when the electronics drawer is in a docked position in the electronics rack to facilitate the transfer of heat from the first cooling loop to the second cooling loop.
