Abstract: A system and method for flushing the electrolyte out of an electrolyte flushable battery apparatus during a thermal runaway event. At least one condition of the electrolyte flushable battery apparatus is monitored to detect a potential thermal runaway event based on the at least one condition exceeding a threshold value. In response the inlet valve and outlet valves on the battery apparatus are opened. A flushing liquid is flushed or pumped through the battery apparatus where the flushing liquid enters the apparatus through the inlet valve and leaves the apparatus through the outlet valve. The flushing liquid is then stored in a reservoir.

Abstract: A method for cooling an information technology system, comprising: receiving a flow of at least a subcooled liquid phase change refrigerant; cooling the information technology system by sensible heat transfer in an evaporator, to produce at least gaseous refrigerant; and exchanging heat from the at least gaseous refrigerant from the evaporator to the subcooled liquid phase change refrigerant. The phase change refrigerant may be a hydrofluorocarbon ether having a boiling point of 30-65° C. at 1-12 bar.

Abstract: A computer equipment cooling device comprising: a temperature dependent thermal conduction member that includes a first major surface and a second major surface; a set of fins connected in thermal communication with the first major surface; and a cold plate connected in thermal communication with the second major surface.
