  • Patent number: 8157001
    Abstract: An integrated cooling system includes a first layer having a contact area configured for coupling to a heat source, wherein the first layer has a fluid path passes adjacent to the contact area where the heat source is in thermal contact with first layer. Coupled to the first layer is a second layer to which a number of air fins are attached. A pump is connected to the fluid path forming a closed path for circulating a fluid through the first layer. Within the first layer, the fluid path will contain a plurality of fluid fins which control the flow of a fluid within the fluid path. Within the fluid path, a structure providing a double-counter flow adjacent to one or more electronic devices. Additionally the fluid path can include a microchannel plate structure.

  • Publication number: 20080013278
    Abstract: A fluid compensation apparatus is configured to provide replacement fluid to a fluid-based cooling loop, while removing dissolved gas or gas in gross bubbles from the cooling loop. Removal or reduction of gas from the cooling loop reduces or prevents pump vapor lock. The removed gas is retained within the fluid compensation apparatus. The fluid compensation apparatus is configured to prevent the trapped gas from being re-introduced to the fluid-based cooling loop, regardless of the orientation of the fluid compensation apparatus. Additionally, the fluid compensation apparatus is configured to remove gas from and add fluid to the cooling loop with limited or no pressure drop between the inlet port and the outlet port of the fluid compensation apparatus. As a result, the pump does not require additional power to compensate for such a pressure differential.

  • Publication number: 20070256815
    Abstract: A scalable and modular cooling system is disclosed. The cooling system includes an air plenum with a plurality of expansion slots. Each expansion slot is configured to receive a modularly configured fluid-to-air heat exchanger, such as a radiator. The air plenum also include one or more air movers for blowing air through the expansion slots, and therefore through any radiators fitted within the expansion slots. For those expansion slots that are not used, a blanking plate is fitted to each unused expansion slot. Each blanking plate is modularly configured in a manner similar to the modularly configured radiators. In this manner, air bypass is substantially prevented. Each radiator is part of an independent cooling loop, used directly or indirectly to cool heat generating devices.

  • Publication number: 20070256825
    Abstract: A cooling system includes a cooling unit configured to fit within a single drive bay of a personal computer. The cooling unit includes a fluid-to-air heat exchanger, an air mover, a pump, fluid lines, and control circuitry. The cooling system also includes a cooling loop configured to be coupled to one or more heat generating devices. The cooling loop includes the pump and the fluid-to-air heat exchanger from the cooling unit, and at least one heat exchanger coupled together via flexible fluid lines. The heat exchanger is thermally coupled to the heat generating device. The cooling unit is configured to maintain noise below a specified acoustical specification. To meet this acoustical specification, the size, position, and type of the components within the cooling unit are specifically configured.

  • Publication number: 20070060351
    Abstract: The present invention describes a method for playing a music game. The game is played by having each player move along a game path that includes a plurality of spaces, each of which is associated with a key signature. Each player advances along the path when he or she correctly identifies the elements of music structures. A random or pseudorandom event generator may be used to select the music structure elements and an event verifier may be used to correct the construction of the music structures. Each player may earn royalties play money in the course of a game.

  • Publication number: 20050269061
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes features for alleviating high pressure drops and controlling the expansion of fluid during freezing. The heat exchanger includes an interface layer in which heat is transferred from a heat source to a fluid. A manifold layer couples to the interface layer. The manifold layer includes a first set of substantially vertical fluid paths for directing the fluid to the interface layer. The manifold layer further includes a second set of substantially horizontal fluid paths, perpendicular to the first set of fluid paths, for removing the fluid from the interface layer. Preferably, the heat exchanger includes an upper layer for circulating the fluid to and from the manifold layer. The upper layer can include at least one of a plurality of protruding features and a porous structure. Preferably, a porous structure is disposed along the interface layer.

  • Publication number: 20050270742
    Abstract: A heat collection apparatus is mounted to the heat source using a gimbal plate, which includes a gimbal joint. The gimbal joint enables application of a retaining force to the heat collection apparatus as a single-point load. The retaining force is applied along a vector that is collinear to the face-centered normal vector of the thermal interface of the heat source. This results in a balanced and centered application of the retaining force over the thermal interface area. The gimbal plate is mounted directly to a circuit board using spring means. The spring means regulate the amount of mating force directed through the gimbal joint to the heat collection device. Because the gimbal joint is rotation-compliant, the two mating faces making up the thermal interface are forced into a parallel mate. In this manner, a high performance TIM interface is generated.

  • Publication number: 20050268626
    Abstract: An apparatus and method of controlling freezing in a liquid system is disclosed. The apparatus includes a heat exchanger having a initial zone characterized by a surface area to volume ratio. The apparatus also includes means for initiating freezing of a fluid from the initial zone to facilitate volume expansion during freezing in the direction of a final zone characterized by a final zone surface area to volume ratio. The apparatus can further include a plurality of zones located between the initial zone and the final zone, wherein a zone surface area to volume ratio is calculated for each zone. Preferably, the zone surface area to volume ratio of each zone progressively decreases from the initial zone in the direction of the final zone. Preferably, the final freezing zone has the lowest surface area to volume ratio and has sufficient elasticity to accommodate the volume expansion of all the fluid that has frozen from the initial zone.
