To provide a thermally conductive sheet that has high thermal conductivity. A thermally conductive sheet contains carbon fibers and a flake graphite powder that are dispersed in a polymer matrix. The flake graphite powder is disposed between the carbon fibers, the fiber axis directions of the carbon fibers are oriented in a sheet thickness direction Z, long axis directions of flake surfaces of the flake graphite powder are oriented in the sheet thickness direction Z, and normal directions to the flake surfaces are randomly oriented in a surface direction of the sheet. A mass ratio of the carbon fibers to the flake graphite powder is in a range of 120:10 to 60:70. According to this thermally conductive sheet, the thermal conductivity can be increased compared to when carbon fibers are used alone or a flake graphite powder is used alone.

Systems according to the present disclosure provide one or more surfaces that function as power radiating surfaces for which at least a portion of the radiating surface includes or is composed of fractal cells placed sufficiently closed close together to one another so that a surface wave causes near replication of current present in one fractal cell in an adjacent fractal cell. The fractal cells may lie on a flat or curved sheet or layer and be composed in layers for wide bandwidth or multibandwidth transmission. The area of a surface and its number of fractals determines the gain relative to a single fractal cell. The boundary edges of the surface may be terminated resistively so as to not degrade the cell performance at the edges. Fractal plasmonic surface cards are described.

A two-phase thermodynamic system includes a porous microstructure sheet to increase an aggregate thin-film evaporation area of a working fluid. The porous microstructure sheet may be disposed at a liquid-vapor boundary of the working fluid. The porous microstructure sheet has micro pores through which the working fluid flows from a liquid flow path on one side of the porous microstructure sheet to a vapor flow path on the other side of the porous microstructure sheet. Individual pores induce the working fluid to form thin-film evaporation regions. The porous microstructure sheet may have a pore density so as to increase an aggregate thin-film evaporation area of the working fluid. In this way, the overall thermal resistance across all liquid-vapor interfaces (menisci) of the working fluid is substantially decreased over conventional vapor chamber.

The present disclosure describes a connector assembly for a liquid manifold within a server rack. The connector assembly includes a pipe configured to connect to the liquid manifold. The pipe has a flexible portion configured to accommodate at least one of lateral or vertical manipulation of the pipe while the pipe remains connected to the liquid manifold. The connector assembly further includes a first connector and a second connector configured to form a liquid-tight connection when coupled together. One of the first connector and the second connector is connected to a distal end of the pipe. The other of the first connector and the second connector is configured to connect to a component within the server rack, for supplying coolant from the liquid manifold to the component.

A liquid cooling heat exchange apparatus has a water block set and a liquid pump module. The water block set has a heat transfer surface configured to exchange heat with a cooling liquid. The liquid pump module is securely mounted on the water block set and has a flow-directing containment area and pumps. The flow-directing containment area forms flow-directing containment recesses and the pumps correspond to the flow-directing containment recesses. Therefore, pumps are connected in series or parallel so that the pumps can juxtapose with each other, which lessens the entire thickness and allows the liquid cooling heat exchange apparatus to be utilized in a narrow space. Besides, with the connected pumps, an amount and a speed of the flow may be increased and dissipate more heat. Even if part of the pumps malfunctions, the remaining pump(s) can maintain a basic amount and speed of the flow.

A heat dissipation unit includes a main body and a mesh body. The main body has an upper plate and a lower plate. The upper and lower plates are correspondingly overlapped and mated with each other to together define an airtight chamber. A working fluid is contained in the airtight chamber. One face of the lower plate, which faces the airtight chamber, is formed with a capillary structure by means of laser processing. The mesh body is attached to the face of the lower plate with the capillary structure. By means of the mesh body, the liquid working fluid backflow efficiency of the capillary structure can be enhanced and the water content of the internal evaporation section of the heat dissipation unit can be increased to avoid dry burn.

The cooling system includes a series of cooling channels arranged to provide convective cooling, with inserts for shielding electromagnetic interference (EMI) that is propagated by the waveguide nature of the cooling channels. Due to the relatively open nature, the cooling channels can serve to propagate EMI energy. The inserts mitigate the EMI exiting via these channels by attenuating or blocking the EMI. The inserts are shaped to block particular frequencies of EMI. The inserts may include thin sheet metal contoured to a half-wave profile, arranged along each cooling channel.

A heat exchanger with a chamber assembly, having a medium directing assembly disposed within. The medium directing assembly provided with a first and a second medium directing panel member, each respectively a planar panel member having a first side and a second side. A heat exchange medium introduced into the chamber assembly in an initial line of flow is vertically diverted into two flows to impact the first side of the first and the second medium directing panel member separately. Each diverted heat exchange medium is then further diverted into a pair of divergent arcuate lateral flow, wherein each lateral flow is directed to impact the lateral sides of the chamber assembly. On the respective second sides of the first and the second medium directing panel member, laterally diverted heat exchange medium is directed to collide into each other, where the pair of laterally diverted flows are subsequently merged.

A heat exchanger for managing thermal energy between a flow of a first fluid and a flow of a second fluid includes first and second parting sheets and a closure bar extending between the first and second parting sheets. The closure bar includes an elongate body, a shield positioned upstream from the body relative to a direction of the flow of the first fluid, and a support connecting the shield to the closure bar.
