The lid can include a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet and define a serpentine flow path within a distal portion of the lid. The lid can be adapted to allow gas flow within the flow path. The solid source chemical sublimator can include a filter that is disposed between the serpentine flow path and the distal portion of the housing. The filter can have a porosity configured to restrict a passage of a solid chemical reactant therethrough.

Abstract: An example of an apparatus to recover heat from multiple layers of computer components is provided. The apparatus includes a tank to store a fluid. The apparatus further includes a first mining layer disposed in the tank. In addition, the apparatus includes a second mining layer disposed in the tank proximate to the first mining layer. The first mining layer and the second mining layer are substantially parallel. The apparatus also includes an outlet disposed on the tank to release the fluid. Furthermore, the apparatus includes a pump to generate a suction to draw the fluid out of the tank via the outlet. The suction creates a fluid flow in a space between the first mining layer and the second mining layer.

Abstract: An example of an apparatus to recover heat from heat generating elements is provided. The apparatus includes a closed-loop fluid flow system having a fluid charged therein. The fluid is to absorb heat. In addition, the apparatus includes a heat exchanger disposed along the closed-loop fluid flow system to remove the heat from the fluid. Furthermore, the apparatus includes a chamber disposed along the closed-loop fluid flow system to receive the fluid at an inlet and to release the fluid from an outlet. The apparatus also includes a plurality of heat generating elements disposed in the chamber. Each heat generating element of the plurality of heat generating elements is immersed in the fluid. The apparatus additionally includes a pump to circulate the fluid in the closed-loop fluid flow system between the heat exchanger and the chamber.

Abstract: A router node comprises a link discovery module, a security module, a secure access module and storage. The link discovery module discovers a link to an adjacent router node and receives its first loopback address. The link discovery module creates a first tunnel between the security module in the router node and the first loopback address. The security module receives a second loopback address for the second router node, and creates a second tunnel. The security module repeats the discovering, receiving and creating steps for each router node adjacent to the first router node. The storage separately stores a link discovery routing table which comprises information relating to the links between the router node and each adjacent router note; a security routing table which stores the unique first loopback address; and a secure access routing table which stores the unique second loopback address.

Abstract: A selective fire firearm may be provided having a fully automatic open bolt and a semi-automatic closed bolt mode of operation. The firearm may include a trigger group having a trigger prop that ensures that, when the trigger is released in the fully automatic open bolt mode, the bolt carrier stops in an open bolt position held by an open bolt sear. The trigger prop may include a foot that, following a first trigger pull in the fully automatic open bolt mode, slides under and props a rear end of the trigger in a position that allows the open bolt sear to catch the bolt carrier when the trigger is released and propped but prevents the trigger sear from engaging the hammer.
