  • Publication number: 20060110262
    Abstract: The present invention provides a micro loop thermosyphon cooler, having a thermal absorption unit and a condenser sequentially arranged therein, wherein the condenser is arranged at a position higher than that of the thermal absorption unit by a height. The thermal absorption unit further comprises a microchannel system formed by superimposing a cover on a substrate having a plurality of micro-grooves arranged thereon, so that the microchannel system is capable of allowing a fluid with a plurality of magnetic particles to flow in and through. In this regard the thermal absorption unit is used for absorbing thermal energy and thus enabling the fluid to vaporize and generate bubbles accordingly for elevating and driving the remaining fluid to flow into the condenser for discharging heat.

  • Publication number: 20040182099
    Abstract: The invention is to provide a device and method for ferrofluid power generator and cooling system, wherein the waste heat of electronic device is a heat source to vaporize fluid and form bubbles as a forwarding pump of the ferrofluid. The fluid with magnetic nano particles is pumped forward and rotated by a fluid mechanism, then pass through a high density coil to result in the time varying magnetic flux and induced current. No additional heat-dissipating device is needed for this invention to dispose the waste heat, which is further reused to produce electricity, such that double effects of cooling and power saving may be achieved.
