摘要： Embodiments of the invention provide a thin film thermoelectric cooler. The cooler may have a high packing density that provides good cooling performance. The cooler may be formed by forming a first set of cooling elements, depositing a conformal insulating layer on the first set, then forming a second set of cooling elements between the first set of elements.

摘要： Embodiments of a cold plate and a manifold plate are disclosed. The cold plate may be coupled with an integrated circuit die, and the cold plate may also include a flow path to receive a liquid coolant. Coolant moving through the flow path can remove heat generated by the die. The cold plate may include one or more piercing elements that are coupled with the flow path. The manifold plate may hold a volume of a liquid coolant, and one or more breakable seals on the manifold plate contain the liquid coolant within the manifold plate (and perhaps other components of a fluid cooling system). The piercing element (or elements) on the cold plate may be inserted into the breakable seal (or seals) on the manifold plate to open the breakable seals and establish fluid communication between the cold and manifold plates. The use of a manifold plate including the breakable seals may enable the shipment and storage of a fluid cooling system precharged with a working fluid. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要： A method and apparatus cooling a chassis. The apparatus includes a telecommunication shelf structure or chassis (102) having a top side (108), bottom side (110), front side (104) and back side (108). Slots that can support boards (112) are oriented between the top side and the bottom side. A first set of fans (126) pushes air flow through the slots from the front and bottom sides of the shelf structure to the top and back sides of the shelf structure, and a second set of fans (128) pulls air flow through the slots from the front and bottom sides of the shelf structure to the top and back of the shelf structure. The first and second set of fans form a fault tolerant and redundant fan configuration in the telecommunication shelf structure to achieve an S-shaped air flow through the telecommunication shelf structure.

摘要： A heat pipe is provided, which includes at least one outer structural wall, a wicking structure, and an inner retaining wall for the wicking structure. The outer structural wall has condenser, intermediate, and evaporator sections sequentially after one another. The wicking structure includes a plurality of wicking components onto which a fluid condenses at the condenser section when heat transfers therefrom out through the condenser section, flows thereon through the intermediate section, and evaporates therefrom when heat transfers thereto through the evaporator section. The wicking components are held in place between the intermediate section and an outer surface of the inner retaining wall. The fluid evaporating from the evaporator section recirculates past an inner surface of the inner retaining wall to the condenser section.
