A fluid container that can prevent a container from being in contact with a heat source fluid and stably hold the heat source fluid, even if corrosive, in the container to perform heat recovery and the like. A first fluid and a second fluid are both allowed to flow into and out of a container body 10. The second fluid is supplied into the container body by a second fluid supply unit 30 to form a layer of the second fluid flowing down along an inner surface of the container body 10, causing the second fluid to be interposed between the first fluid and the inner surface of the container body. This eliminates deterioration of the container body due to corrosion of the container body by the fact that the first fluid has contact with the inner surface of the container body, as well as scale precipitation from the first fluid.

A heat exchanger includes partition members, alternately stacked spacing members, and seals. The spacing members include first and second spacing members forming the first and second passages. The first and second spacing members each have a frame portion along a periphery of the partition members. The frame portion of the first and second spacing members have first and second communication sections having first and second communication openings allowing the first and second passages to communicate with outside of the frame portion, and first and second partition walls separating the first and second passages from the outside of the frame portion. The frame portions of the first and second spacing members further have first and second notches provided in portions of the first and second partition walls, and open on an outer side surface of the first and second partition walls. The seals cover surfaces of the first and second notches.

A heat exchanger includes a first flow path member including a first plate having a first flow path portion providing a plurality of flow paths through which a first fluid flows, and a first bonding plate diffusion-bonded to the first plate to cover the first flow path portion; and a second flow path member including a second plate having a second flow path portion providing a plurality of flow paths through which a second fluid for exchanging heat with the first fluid flows. The first flow path member and the second flow path member are diffusion-bonded to each other.

Thermal management devices, systems, and methods of fabrication thereof are generally directed to accommodating variability in height, shape, or other geometric features of one or more heat-dissipating components on a substrate while maintaining efficient transfer of heat away from the one or more heat-dissipating components. For example, a thermal management device may include a housing, a diaphragm, and a wick, the wick disposed along a chamber defined by the housing and the diaphragm such that a fluid within the chamber may evaporate and condense along the chamber to transfer heat away from one or more heat-dissipating components (e.g., electronic components or photonics). The diaphragm may be resiliently flexible relative to the housing to bias a contact surface of the diaphragm against one or more heat-dissipating components while maintaining efficient transfer of heat through the chamber and away from the one or more heat-dissipating components.

A heat sink device including: a cover module having a liquid inlet; a central flow channel for distributing coolant fluid introduced into the liquid inlet of the cover module; a plurality of inner fins; a plurality of inner radial flow channels; wherein coolant fluid from the central flow channel flows into the inner radial flow channels; a ring segment disposed around an outer perimeter of the plurality of inner fins, wherein the ring segment is configured to at least one of, mix and distribute coolant fluid received from the inner radial flow channels; a plurality of outer fins; a plurality of outer radial flow channels; wherein coolant fluid from the ring segment flows into the outer radial flow channels; and an outer flow channel, wherein coolant fluid flowing out of the radial flow channels outlet drains into the outer flow channel.

A general purpose enclosure is provided. A general purpose enclosure for housing an internal unit and providing complete protection against an ingress of dust and water, comprising a first housing and a second housing. A plurality of cooling fins and one or more pressure ports along an exterior surface of the first housing and the second housing. One or more pressure ports comprising a pneumatic valve, pressure sensor cap and a vent membrane such that pressure venting, and pressure testing may be performed by the one or more pressure ports. A method of assembling a general purpose enclosure to an internal unit, comprising applying the first housing and the second housing to the internal unit such that the first housing and the second housing encompass the internal unit and fastening the first housing to the second house.

A heat exchanger includes: first layers each including first flow channels that are microchannels; and second layers each including second flow channels that are microchannels. The first layers and the second layers constitute a lamination. Heat is exchanged by performing either of: liquid evaporation in the first flow channels and gas condensation in the second flow channels, or liquid evaporation in the second flow channels and gas condensation in the first flow channels. The lamination includes: a first liquid transport pore that is in fluid communication with the first flow channels; and a second liquid transport pore that is in fluid communication with the second flow channels.

A heat exchanger includes: a first layer including first flow channels that are microchannels and arranged to extend side by side; and a second layer that is laminated on the first layer and that includes second flow channels that are microchannels and arranged to extend side by side. A first one end-side collective flow channel is in fluid communication with first ends of the first flow channels. A first other end-side collective flow channel is in fluid communication with second ends of the first flow channels. A second one end-side collective flow channel is in fluid communication with first ends of the second flow channels. A second other end-side collective flow channel is in fluid communication with second ends of the second flow channels.

A heat dissipator includes a plate-shaped base portion that extends in a first direction along a direction where a refrigerant flows and in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and has a thickness in a third direction, and fins that protrude from the base portion to one side in the third direction, extend in the first direction, are arranged in the second direction, and guide the refrigerant. A second of the fins is provided continuously on one side in the first direction that is a downstream side of a first of the fins, and a third fin that is provided continuously on another side in the first direction of the first fin, and includes an end on the one side in the third direction on the other side in the third direction.

An ultrasound probe and method for using the same are described. In one embodiment, the ultrasound probe comprises: a probe array assembly having a probe tip; a first enclosure disposed around a portion of the probe array assembly, where the first enclosure has first and second openings and comprises a thermally conductive material; and one or more thermally conductive fins contained within the first enclosure, each of the one or more thermally conductive fins having one end enclosed within the probe array assembly and a portion extending away from the probe array assembly and in thermal contact with an inner surface of the first enclosure to create a thermal path from the first opening to the second opening in the first enclosure.
