    摘要: Embodiments provide various apparatus and techniques for deflecting or redirecting a flow of ionized air generated from an ionic wind generator. In general, a deflection field generator can be located proximate to the path of the flow of ionized air. The deflection field generator is configured to generate an electromagnetic field, which deflects a least a portion of the flow of ionized air to a different path and may possibly increase local heat transfer.

    摘要: A thermal contact arrangement. The thermal contact arrangement may mitigate or reduce migration over time of a thermal interface material positioned between a chip and a heat sink. The thermal contact arrangement may include a first zone formed on a first area of the heat sink and a second zone formed on a second area of the heat sink. The processor may overlap or overlie the first zone, with the second zone generally outside the footprint of the processor and optionally surrounding the processor's footprint. The first zone may have a generally smooth surface, while the second zone may have a surface rougher than the first zone. The first zone may be finished to a specific smoothness while the second zone may be finished to second particular smoothness that is generally less than the first zone.

    摘要: Embodiments of a heat-transfer mechanism are described. This heat-transfer mechanism includes a first heatpipe having a first end and a second end, and a second heatpipe having a third end and a fourth end. Moreover, a heatpipe coupler is thermally coupled to the second end of the first heatpipe and the third end of the second heatpipe. This heatpipe coupler includes a housing surrounding a cavity and a liquid metal contained within the cavity, thereby providing a thermal path from the first end of the first heatpipe, which is configured to couple to a condenser, to the fourth end of the second heatpipe, which is configured to couple to an evaporator.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing a thermal contact arrangement. The method including the operations of providing a thermal conductor and forming a first zone having a first roughness on a first portion of a first exterior surface of the thermal conductor. The method further including the operation of forming a second zone having a second roughness on a second portion of the first exterior surface of the thermal conductor. The second portion is unique from the first portion and formed from a part of the thermal contact arrangement other than the first portion and the second roughness is rougher than the first roughness.
