One or more diverters extend at least partially across the one or more protruding features in the chamber. One or more bubbles are formed in the fluid in the chamber as a result of bubble nucleation. At least one of growth and motion of the one or more of the bubbles are diverted with the one or more diverters to generate additional localized motion of the fluid along at least one of the one or more protruding features and other surfaces in the chamber of the housing to at least of transfer additional heat to the liquid and increase the critical heal flux limit.

The titanium metal plate bodies are heat-treated, whereby the titanium metal plate bodies can be mechanical processed, shaped and surface-modified. Accordingly, the titanium metal can be freely shaped and provide capillary attraction. In this case, the titanium metal plate bodies can be used as the material of the heat dissipation unit instead of the conventional copper plate bodies to greatly reduce the weight and enhance the heat dissipation performance.

A method includes forming an electronics housing defining a first flow path spaced apart from the second flow path for heat exchange through the housing between the first and second flow paths. The electronics housing is of a first material. The method includes depositing a heat exchange fin on the electronics housing. The heat exchange fin is of a second material different from the first material, wherein the heat exchange fin is grown into the second flow path to facilitate heat exchange between the first flow path and the second flow path.

The casing can include rear, front, and peripheral side walls. The heat exchanger can be helically-shaped, mounted in the casing, and include at least one tubular duct for the flow of the first heat transfer fluid. The tubular duct can be coiled about a longitudinal axis and define a helix.
