  • Publication number: 20240251525
    Abstract: In an ebullition cooling device, one opening of each of through holes faces an uneven surface, and the other opening of each of the through holes is opened to a space on a side opposite to the uneven surface. At least the uneven surface of a heat transfer wall and a metal porous body are immersed in a refrigerant liquid. The uneven surface of the heat transfer wall is a vertical surface or an inclined surface having a height position that changes in one direction along which grooves extend, and at least one end, at a higher position, of opposite ends of each of the grooves in the direction along which the grooves extend is opened.

  • Publication number: 20240237290
    Abstract: A heat sink structure includes: a corrugated fin that is made of metal, and has a cross section in a wave form and a plate surface in which a plurality of through holes are opened; heat absorbing portions and that absorb heat from a cooling target object and transmit the heat to the corrugated fin; and a fluid flow path that allows cooling fluid to be supplied toward the plate surface of the corrugated fin and allows the cooling fluid to flow along the through holes. The heat transmitted from the heat absorbing portions and to the corrugated fin is radiated in the cooling fluid passing through the through holes.

  • Patent number: 11859915
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system and method for dissipating heat from a heat generating component. The system and method an assembly of a fenestrated housing and a plenum and positioning of the assembly relate to the heat generating component. The plenum accommodates a fluid mover relative to the fenestrated housing. The fenestrations function to support multi-directional fluid flow created by the fluid mover and accommodated by the fenestrations, which function as ports to direct fluid with respect to the heat generating component.

  • Patent number: 10955202
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system with a primary body in communication with at least one heat source. A chamber housed within the primary body includes a boundary to separate the heat source from fluid contact and a secondary body housed in the chamber. The secondary body includes a conduit and a cover in communication with the conduit wherein the cover has a fluid flow inlet extending into the conduit and the conduit includes a series of convection ports to exhaust fluid into the chamber. Upon surging through the convection ports, the fluid comes in contact with the plenum of the primary body and dissipates the heat generated from the heat source and transferred to the primary body. An outlet, separate from the inlet, removes the fluid from the chamber.

  • Patent number: 10692798
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention related to using the fin length of the heat sink extending from an entrance of the heat sink to an interior sectional wall as the heat transfer element to achieve high thermal performance. The sectional wall(s) of the heat sink function to isolate fluid flow communication between the heat sink sections of fin fields, thereby preventing a flow coupling between the fin fields.

  • Publication number: 20160153709
    Abstract: A beverage held in a container is rapidly cooled by placing the container in a flexible sleeve defining a sleeve chamber that is cooled, either directly or by a secondary loop of heat transfer fluid, by a closed refrigeration circuit. An agitation assembly is selectively operable to oscillate the sleeve about a yaw axis. During active cooling, a cooled fluid (such as refrigerant or a secondary heat transfer fluid) flows through the sleeve chamber while the agitation assembly is simultaneously operated to rapidly cool the beverage held within the container.

  • Patent number: 9190592
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a thermoelectric device includes providing a substrate having a plurality of inclined growth surfaces protruding from a surface thereof. Respective thermoelectric material layers are grown on the inclined growth surfaces, and the respective thermoelectric material layers coalesce to collectively define a continuous thermoelectric film. A surface of the thermoelectric film opposite the surface of the substrate may be substantially planar, and a crystallographic orientation of the thermoelectric film may be tilted at an angle of about 45 degrees or less relative to a direction along a thickness thereof. Related devices and fabrication methods are also discussed.

  • Patent number: 8623687
    Abstract: A method of forming a thermoelectric device may include forming a first electrically conductive trace, and bonding a thermoelectric element to the first electrically conductive trace. After bonding the thermoelectric element to the first electrically conductive trace, a metal post may be formed on the thermoelectric element so that the thermoelectric element is between the first electrically conductive trace and the metal post. After forming the metal post, the metal post may be bonded to a second electrically conductive trace so that the metal post is between the second electrically conductive trace and the thermoelectric element. Other related methods and structures are also discussed.
