An embodiment of the invention comprises a method for constructing a heat exchanger for cooling one or more semiconductor components. The method comprises the step of providing first and second planar sheets of specified thermally conductive metal foil, wherein each of the sheets has and exterior side and an interior side. The method further comprises forming one or more thermal contact nodes (TCNs) in the first sheet, wherein each TCN extends outward from the exterior side of the first sheet, and comprises a planar contact member and one or more side sections, the side sections respectively including resilient components that enable the contact member of the TCN to move toward and away from the exterior side of the first sheet, and the side sections and contact member of a TCN collectively forming a coolant chamber. Channel segments are configured along the interior side of the first sheet, wherein each channel extends between the coolant chambers and two TCNs, or between the coolant chamber of a TCN and an input port or output port, selectively. The method further comprises joining the interior side of the second sheet to the interior side of the first sheet, in order to form a sealed flow path that includes each channel segment, and enables liquid coolant to flow into and out of the coolant chamber of each TCN.

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.

A side-by-side double row of electronics packages plug into a common backplane. Cooling air flows in an (upside down) omega-shaped path turning into one row of packages, flowing through that row, turning through an air-moving device into a plenum chamber, then turning into the second row of packages, and out of the second row turning again to an outlet.

A method and system for cooling an electrical heat source is disclosed. A heat exchanger has two principal sub-assemblies. A closed-loop fluid flow is provided through a second sub-assembly, disposed next to a heat source. An open-loop fluid flow is provided though a first sub-assembly in communication with a second sub-assembly. Each of the first and second sub-assemblies has a rotational element. The fluid flow entering the first sub-assembly rotates the first rotational element, and magnetic communication between the rotational elements causes movement of the second rotational element, thereby achieving fluid movement within the second sub-assembly. Operationally, the closed-loop sub-assembly removes heat from the heat source and transfers it to the open-loop sub-assembly for subsequent heat transfer in a downstream fluid flow.

A method and associated assembly for cooling electronic heat generating components of a computer including dual-in-line memory (DIMM) array(s) is provided. The assembly comprises a cooling component having a plate with a first and a second (reverse) side, thermally coupling to the heat generating components including the DIMM array(s). The first plate side has a coolant conduit connected at one end to a supply manifold via flexible tubing and at another end to a return manifold via another flexible tubing such that when coolant is supplied, the coolant circulates from the supply manifold to the return manifold by passing through said first plate's conduit.
