  • Publication number: 20240292567
    Abstract: The present application provides a heat dissipation system and method for electronic devices. The system includes a heat dissipation unit attached to electronic component of an electronic device, a temperature and humidity sensor, a cooling unit and a controller. The controller is configured to obtain the dew point temperature of the space in which the cooling unit is disposed and to determine a coolant flow rate based on the dew point and the coolant temperature. In the event where the difference between the coolant temperature and the dew point is greater than a threshold, the heat dissipation unit receives the coolant under a first flow rate. In the event where the difference between the coolant temperature and the dew point is equal to or less than the threshold, the heat dissipation unit receives the coolant under a second flow rate lower than the first flow rate.
