  • Patent number: 10847440
    Abstract: A system for cooling an electronic device includes a pressure tank in a sealed cavity, the cavity being filled with an insulating liquid. The electronic device is also housed in the cavity and is immersed in the insulating liquid. The pressure tank is immersed in water. The liquid when heated becomes less dense and flows to exchange and lose heat to the cold water via the pressure tank. After cooling by the pressure tank, the now-denser liquid flows back to the other side of the electronic device because of density differences.
