Coupling assemblies for connecting fluid-carrying components are provided. The coupling assemblies include, for instance: a socket fitting with a first opening and a second opening in fluid communication through the fitting, the first opening being sized to accommodate a first fluid-carrying component, and the second opening being sized to accommodate a second fluid-carrying component; a sleeve, the sleeve encircling the socket fitting and being rotatable relative to the fitting, and the sleeve including a first locking feature; and a second locking feature associated with one of the fluid-carrying components. The second locking feature is positioned and sized to engage the first locking feature of the sleeve when the one fluid-carrying component is inserted into the socket fitting. Once engaged, rotating of the sleeve locks the first and second locking features together to secure the one fluid-carrying component to the socket fitting.

An Information Handling System (IHS) includes at least one node provisioned with heat-generating components and an air passage that enables air to pass through the node and exit the node as exhaust air. An air-to-liquid heat exchanger (ATLHE) block is placed in a path of the exhaust air. The ATLHE block has an air directing structure, one or more air movers to move the exhaust air through the air directing structure, and an ATLHE. The ATLHE includes a liquid transfer conduit having at least one liquid supply port extending into a heat transfer section, which terminates into at least one liquid return port, the liquid transfer conduit enabling cooling liquid transfer through the ATLHE. A liquid cooling subsystem includes supply and return conduits. The supply conduit is sealably mated to the at least one supply port and the return conduit is sealably mated to the at least one return port.

A power conversion device such that heat dissipation can be improved is obtained. The power conversion device includes a power conversion circuit unit that converts direct current into alternating current using a semiconductor switching element, a heatsink on which the power conversion circuit unit is mounted, and which has a first passage through which a cooling medium is caused to pass, and a frame body that houses the power conversion circuit unit, seals the power conversion circuit unit between the frame body and the heatsink, and has a second passage through which a cooling medium is caused to pass, wherein the first passage and second passage are connected at an interface between the heatsink and frame body, thereby configuring a cooling passage.

The invention relates to a switch cabinet with a cooling apparatus which has a first closed coolant circuit and a second closed coolant circuit separated fluidically from the first coolant circuit, the first coolant circuit having a refrigerating machine or a cold water set and the second coolant circuit having a heat pipe arrangement.

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes an enclosure configured for connection to a printed circuit board, a substrate within the enclosure, a plurality of components mounted on the substrate, a fluid inlet connector, a fluid outlet connector, and a plurality of flow channels within the enclosure, at least one of the components disposed in each the flow channels and segregated from other components in another of the flow channels. The enclosure is configured for immersion cooling of the components.

The invention relates to a method for replacing liquid in a liquid cooling circuit in a supercomputer rack, including a main pump and a reserve pump, using a maintenance unit. The method includes disconnecting the reserve pump, connecting the upstream reservoir to the reserve pump, connecting the downstream reservoir, stopping the main pump, activating the reserve pump, stopping the reserve pump once the upstream reservoir is below a predetermined low threshold, disconnecting the upstream reservoir from the reserve pump, disconnecting the reserve pump from the downstream reservoir, connecting the inlet supply pipe to the reserve pump in order to return said reserve pump to its initial configuration and reactivating the main pump.

Some modular heat-transfer systems can have an array of at least one heat-transfer element being configured to transfer heat to a working fluid from an operable element. A manifold module can have a distribution manifold and a collection manifold. A decoupleable inlet coupler can be configured to fluidicly couple the distribution manifold to a respective heat-transfer element. A decoupleable outlet coupler can be configured to fluidicly couple the respective heat-transfer element to the collection manifold. An environmental coupler can be configured to receive the working fluid from the collection manifold, to transfer heat to an environmental fluid from the working fluid or to transfer heat from an environmental fluid to the working fluid, and to discharge the working fluid to the distribution manifold.
