  • SYSTEM FOR COOLING COMPONENTS IN AN ELECTRONIC MODULE
    Publication number: 20220375823
    Abstract: A device is provided that includes a heat conductive structure; a heat transfer structure for extracting heat from the heat conductive structure by means of a boundary layer; a motor for rotating the heat transfer structure relative to the heat conductive structure; and a vertical fixing mechanism for allowing the heat transfer structure to rotate above the heat transfer structure without making contact with the heat transfer structure so as to define a boundary layer between the heat conductive structure and heat transfer structure, wherein the heat transfer structure extracts heat from the heat conductive structure by means of the boundary layer, and wherein the heat conductive structure includes small geometric turbulators.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 2, 2022
    Publication date: November 24, 2022
    Applicant: WHIRLPOOL CORPORATION
    Inventors: Nelson Rene Garcia-Polanco, John Piero Piero Doyle, Raffaele Paganini, Francesco Mastrangelo
