Abstract: Operations associated with charging a vehicle may generate thermal energy. A passive thermal management solution may dissipate the thermal energy without requiring additional active components and without adding significant thermal loads to an existing thermal management system. In some examples, a passive heat exchanger may include a cold plate coupled to power electronics. In addition, the passive heat exchanger may include a condenser that is fluidly coupled to the cold plate and is positioned in an airflow path.

Abstract: A thermal management assembly may implement cooling techniques to cool at least a portion of a computer system with one or more cooling systems. The techniques may include using a thermal management assembly in fluid communication with the cooling system(s) to supply fluid from at least one of the cooling systems to at least a portion of the computer system. The techniques may also or instead include using a first thermal coupling to transfer thermal energy between the first cooling system and the computer system and a second thermal coupling to transfer thermal energy between the second cooling system and the computer system. Cooling a computer system using the cooling techniques described herein lowers an operating temperature of the computer system thereby mitigating heat related computer failure.

Abstract: A heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system may effectively provide and/or substantially maintain adjacent thermal zones that have different temperatures and/or humidities from one another. The HVAC system may include a duct network including zonal ducts each having a zonal duct exit configured to create aerodynamic profiles that result in a thermal zone. A thermal zone may be characterized by a volume having a temperature and/or humidity which may differ from an adjacent thermal zone, such that a temperature and/or humidity gradient exists at a thermal zone boundary between adjacent thermal zones, and such that diffusion of the temperature and/or humidity between the adjacent thermal zones is aerodynamically inhibited, or otherwise minimized.
