Bonded multi-layer graphite heat pipe
A passive heat pipe structure used in a wearable device includes a multilayer stack of graphite sheets, each sheet having a plane high thermal conductivity oriented along a first axis and a plane of lower thermal conductivity along a second axis different from the first axis. The stack has a three-dimensional shape including a length and a width where the length is longer than the width and the first axis aligns parallel to said length, the multilayer stack having a height less than the width. A plurality of bonding layers interspersed between each sheet of the multilayer stack, each bonding layer thermally coupling each sheet to a respective adjacent sheet. The bonding layers may comprise metal layers or adhesive layers.
Multi-fractal heatsink system and method
A heat sink comprising a heat exchange device having a large-scale morphology over a scale range and a small-scale texture over a scale range, wherein at least one of the large-scale morphology and the small scale texture has a fractal-like self-similarity over a scale range. The large-scale morphology and small-scale texture may be defined and implemented independently, or be provided with a transitional range. The large-scale morphology may be algorithmically optimized according to a set of geometrically constraints. The small-scale texture may be optimized according to aerodynamic parameters and constraints. The heat sink may be dynamically varying, and/or operated in conjunction with a dynamically varying heat transfer medium supply.

The cooler may have an electronic device mounted thereon, which includes a front surface on which a display area is formed and a rear surface opposite the front surface. The cooler may include a housing including a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, and a third surface that surrounds an interior space between the first surface and the second surface, the first surface including a seating area on which the rear surface of the electronic device is seated and a recess area spaced apart from the rear surface of the electronic device by a predetermined gap, and a fan disposed in the interior space of the housing and including a rotary shaft formed in a direction toward the first surface from the second surface.
Hot spot cooling for data storage system
A data storage system may include multiple data storage devices, such as solid-state drives, an enclosure housing the devices, and a thermal bridge positioned in a gap between and in contact with each of the enclosure and a device, where the enclosure is cooler than the device. Thus, heat is conducted away from a hot spot of the device and to the enclosure. The thermal bridge may be flexible enough to bridge different sized gaps, while stiff enough to generate contact forces applied to the enclosure and the device. For example, the thermal bridge may be constructed primarily of copper and configured to function like a compression spring.
Adjustable heat sink fin spacing
A heat sink includes a heat sink base, a first fin, and a second fin. The spacing between the base and the first fin and the second fin, restively, may be adjusted by rotating a threaded rod. The threaded rod includes a first threaded knurl that is engaged with the first fin and a second threaded knurl that is engaged with the second fin. The thread pitch of the first threaded knurl and the second threaded knurl may differ. For example, the pitch of the first threaded knurl may be smaller than the pitch of the second threaded knurl if the first fin is located nearest the heat sink base relative to the second fin. The spacing of the heat sink fins may be adjusted based upon the current operating conditions of the electronic device to maintain an optimal temperature of a heat generating device during device operation.
