An enclosure for providing liquid film cooling to heat generating components includes a chassis, a sump, a first pump, a plumbing system, tube plates, and a heat exchanger. The chassis includes cassettes that hold one or more heat generating components. The sump stores a liquid to be supplied to the heat generating components. The first pump draws the liquid from the sump and supplies the liquid to the tube plates through the plumbing system. Each tube plate is positioned between two cassettes to deliver the liquid to the heat generating components. The tube plates directly spray the liquid onto the heat generating components by way of nozzles embedded on the tube plates. The liquid is evaporated into vapors upon contact with the plurality of heat generating components. The heat exchanger condenses the vapors into condensed liquid upon contact. The condensed liquid is collected in the sump to be re-circulated.

A fluid cooling device includes a bottom plate, an adhesive layer and a spray cooling cover. The bottom plate includes a substrate and a chip, and the spray cooling cover is fixed on the bottom plate by an adhesive layer. In addition, the spray cooling cover includes a fluid inlet and a plurality of fluid outlets to utilize a working fluid to cool the chip directly.

A power electronics unit may include a circuit board and a cooling device. The circuit board may include at least one electronic component which, in a heat transfer region, is disposed flat against an electronics side of the circuit board. The cooling device may include at least one impingement jet chamber through which a cooling fluid is flowable from an inlet to an outlet. The cooling device may further include at least one nozzle plate having at least one flow nozzle. The at least one nozzle plate may be arranged in and divide the at least one impingement jet chamber into an inlet chamber and an outlet chamber, which may be fluidically connected to one another via the at least one flow nozzle. The at least one flow nozzle may accelerate and conduct the cooling fluid towards the heat transfer region of the at least one electronic component.

A liquid-submersible thermal management system includes a shell, a heat-generating component, a working fluid, and at least one heat-dispersing element. The shell defines an immersion chamber where the heat-generating component is located in the immersion chamber. The working fluid is positioned in the immersion chamber and at least partially surrounds the heat-generating component so the working fluid receives heat from the heat-generating component. The at least one heat-dispersing element is positioned on exterior surface of the shell to conduct heat from the shell into the heat-dispersing element.

A cooling apparatus for an electronic or computing device includes a base for thermal coupling to a surface of the electronic or computing device and a cover spaced from the base. A nozzle plate is disposed between the base and the cover to partially define an inlet volume and an outlet volume. Cooling fluid enters the inlet volume and passes through the nozzle plate to the outlet volume and out of the apparatus. The nozzle plate includes a plurality of flow paths through which the cooling fluid passes from the inlet volume to the outlet volume. The flow paths cause the fluid to exit the nozzle plate as transversely expanding fluid jets.

A modular cooling system for data center. An airflow section forms a duct for air flow and a plurality of core units are serially attached to each other and to the airflow section. A blower unit is attached to each of the core units. A plurality of motorized dampers are provided: between each of the core units and the airflow unit, in between each two core units, and between each core unit and its corresponding blower unit. A plurality of fluid ports are attached to each of the core units. At least one of the core units is loaded with one or more equipment selected from: air filter, humidifier, dehumidifier, heat exchanger, evaporator, condenser, chiller, computer room air conditioner (CRAC), dry cooler, a cooling tower or other types of cooling equipment. A combination operation of the components on the compartment and the cooling units enables fast deployment and operation.

A server rack cooling arrangement may include a server rack enclosure defining a single undivided interior volume of space and configured to be sealable; two or more open-frame-server-units disposed within the interior volume of space and arranged in a multi-level arrangement, wherein heat-producing-electronic-components may be exposed to environmental conditions of the interior volume of space; a central condenser disposed towards a rear; a coolant reservoir for collecting condensate from the central condenser; at least one nozzle in fluid communication with the coolant reservoir and configured to deliver fine coolant droplets into the interior volume of space for impingement on the heat-producing-electronic-components; and a fan configured to generate an airflow through the two or more open-frame-server-units from a front to the rear in a manner so as to carry coolant vapour generated from impingement of the fine coolant droplets on the heat-producing-electronic-components to the central condenser.
