    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with coolant systems for computer and electrical environments are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus for selectively transferring of heat within a computer environment may include a cold plate thermally coupled to a liquid line of a liquid coolant system of the computer environment, the cold plate to transfer heat to the liquid line and a thermally-conductive body to cool a component of the computer environment. The apparatus may further include a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) thermally coupled with the cold plate on a first side of the TEC and thermally coupled with the thermally-conductive body on a second side of the TEC, the TEC to increase an amount of heat transfer from the second side of the TEC to the first side of the TEC in response to energy provided to the TEC.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to multi-phase cooling of electronic equipment such as processors and voltage regulators in a rack computing system. In various embodiments, a cooling device may include a heat exchanger, an inlet manifold, an outlet manifold, one or more fluid conductors coupled with the heat exchange, the inlet manifold, and the outlet manifold to carry a two-phase fluid from the outlet manifold to the inlet manifold through the heat exchanger, and one or more fans to generate a flow of air against the heat exchanger. In some embodiments, the heat exchanger may be arranged in an inverted-V or an inverted-W configuration with respect to the fans. In embodiments, the cooling device may be disposed in a rack module. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes embodiments of apparatuses and methods related to a computing apparatus with a closed cooling loop thermally coupled to one or more processors disposed on a circuit board of the computing apparatus. The closed cooling loop circulates a dielectric fluid to absorb heat from the processor. A portion of the dielectric fluid is evaporated from the processor heat absorbed by the dielectric fluid. A heat exchanger is coupled to the circuit board and thermally coupled to the closed cooling loop. The heat exchanger is to include a coolant flow to remove heat from the dielectric fluid circulated through the portion of the closed cooling loop thermally coupled to the heat exchanger. A vapor portion of the dielectric fluid is condensed from the heat removed by the coolant flow. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
