A method for manufacturing a heat sink including heating a metal base to melt solder in grooves formed in the base. The base has a first coefficient of thermal expansion. The solder has a second coefficient of thermal expansion lower than the first coefficient of thermal expansion. The metal base and the solder are cooled and the metal base experiences tensile stresses and the solder experiences compressive stresses to form a concavity in a thermal face of the base. The thermal face is then planed. Over time, the tensile stresses and the compressive stresses reduce such that the thermal face becomes convex.

摘要:
An apparatus is provided for cooling an electronics rack, which includes an electronic subsystem across which air passing through the rack flows. A cooling unit provides, via system coolant supply and return manifolds, system coolant in parallel to the electronic subsystem and an air-to-liquid heat exchanger disposed to cool, in normal-mode, air passing through the rack. A controller monitors coolant associated with the cooling unit and automatically transitions the cooling apparatus from normal-mode to failure-mode responsive to detecting a failure of the coolant. In transitioning to failure-mode, multiple isolation valves are employed in switching to a serial flow of system coolant from the electronic subsystem to the heat exchanger for rejecting, via the system coolant, heat from the electronic subsystem to air passing across the heat exchanger.

摘要:
A conductive heat transport cooling system and method are provided for cooling primary and secondary heat generating components of an electronics system. The cooling system includes a liquid-based cooling subsystem including at least one liquid-cooled cold plate physically coupled to at least one primary heat generating component of the electronics system, and a thermally conductive coolant-carrying tube coupled to and in fluid communication with the at least one liquid-cooled cold plate. A thermally conductive auxiliary structure is coupled to the coolant-carrying tube and to at least one secondary heat generating component of the electronics system. When in use, the thermally conductive auxiliary structure provides conductive heat transport from the at least one secondary heat generating component to the at least one thermally conductive coolant-carrying tube coupled thereto, and hence via convection to liquid coolant passing therethrough.
