Abstract: A liquid submersion cooled computer that includes a seamless, extruded main body used to form a liquid-tight case holding a cooling liquid that submerges components of the computer. By forming the main body as a seamless extrusion, the number of possible leakage paths from the resulting liquid-tight case is reduced. No seams are provided on the main body, and there are no openings through the walls of the main body, so liquid cannot leakage through the main body. Any leakage paths are limited to joints between the main body and end walls which are sealingly attached to the main body to form the liquid-tight case.

Abstract: An output circuit for a microwave tube is provided that has generally high interaction impedance for good efficiency, has high average power capability, and is physically large for a given operating frequency. The output circuit is designed to operate in conjunction with an off-axis, bunched electron beam. Electromagnetic fields are applied to the region in which the electron beam propagates to impart an azimuthal velocity to the bunched electron beam. The electron bunches then interact synchronously with a resonant output structure to excite radio-frequency modes from which energy can be extracted and applied to a load.

The heat exchanger includes a cooling liquid inlet, a cooling liquid outlet, and a flow path for cooling liquid therethrough from the cooling liquid inlet to the cooling liquid outlet. An air-moving device such as a fan can be used to blow air across the heat exchanger to increase heat transfer.

Abstract: A system and method to support the transmission of static media, originating from an HTTP source, as a Real-Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) stream to a caching proxy. A server-side gateway accepts RTSP requests, loads a requested resource from the HTTP source, and streams requested portions of a file via RTSP. A RTSP proxy caches received portions of media to avoid re-requesting those portions. The RTSP proxy may receive a RTSP TEARDOWN command to trigger removal of cached media and passes the RTSP TEARDOWN command to the server-side gateway. Further, the server-side gateway may receive a RTSP TEARDOWN command to trigger the server-side gateway to remove media loaded from the HTTP source.

Abstract: Dielectric liquid is used to cool heat generating electronic components disposed on a circuit board within a case. The liquid is poured or otherwise directed over the electronic components, with gravity assisting the liquid in flowing downward over the components, with the liquid thereafter being collected in a sump for eventual return back to the electronic components. One exemplary application of the described concepts is in cooling electronic components in computers, for example personal computers or server computers.

Abstract: A case for a liquid submersion cooled computer includes a plurality of walls defining a liquid-tight interior space. At least a portion of one of the walls is made of a material that permits viewing of objects, for example, a motherboard, within the interior space. A removable lid closes the top of the interior space. The lid forms a liquid-tight seal with the plurality of walls, and the lid includes a sealed electrical connector fixed thereto that is configured to attach to the motherboard disposed in the interior space and to provide electrical connection between the motherboard and an exterior of the case. The case can include a drain valve for draining liquid from the case. Further, the lid can have an opening for introducing liquid into the interior space, and a handle to facilitate lifting of the lid along with the motherboard connected to the lid.
