  • Publication number: 20230302419
    Abstract: The contacting device for countercurrent contacting of fluid streams and having a first pair of intersecting grids of spaced-apart and parallel deflector blades and a second pair of intersecting grids of spaced-apart and parallel deflector blades. The deflector blades in each one of the grids are interleaved with the deflector blades in the paired intersecting grid and may have uncut side portions that join them together along a transverse strip where the deflector blades cross each other or adjacent opposed ends of the deflector blades and cut side portions that extend from the uncut side portions to the ends of the deflector blades. At least some of the deflector blades have directional tabs and associated openings to allow portions of the fluid streams to pass through the deflector blades to facilitate mixing of the fluid streams.

  • Publication number: 20190227606
    Abstract: Apparatuses associated with liquid coolant supply are disclosed. One example apparatus is a computing cartridge which includes a first electronic device and a liquid-cooled cold plate. The computing cartridge also includes a first thermal couple between the first electronic device and the cold plate. The computing cartridge also includes an inlet fluid connector. The inlet fluid connector may supply a liquid coolant to the cold plate. The computing cartridge also includes an outlet fluid connector. The outlet fluid connector may facilitate return of the coolant from the cold plate.

  • Publication number: 20190103290
    Abstract: In some examples, a multiple chip module (MCM) includes a heat sink; a circuit board; a first chip secured to a first location on the circuit board; a first vapor chamber thermally coupled to the first chip to pass heat generated by the first chip to the heat sink; a second chip secured to a second location on the circuit board; and a second vapor chamber thermally coupled to the second chip to pass heat generated by the second chip to the heat sink. In some examples, a portion of the second vapor chamber is positioned between a portion of the first vapor chamber and the heat sink. In some examples, the first vapor chamber is substantially thermally insulated from the second vapor chamber.

  • Patent number: 9920658
    Abstract: A system and method for providing dry cooling of a source liquid, having a plurality of heat exchangers which depolymerize and polymerize a polymer. Specifically, the depolymerization process is endothermic and draws heat from a source liquid in a first heat exchanger, and the polymerization process is exothermic and expels heat from a second heat exchanger. Additional heat exchangers and holding tanks may be incorporated in the system and method. In some embodiments the system further provides additional cooling of the polymer prior to depolymerization using cooler night ambient air.

  • Patent number: 9713285
    Abstract: According to an example, a cooling system includes a cooling fluid reservoir, a cooling apparatus in fluid communication with the cooling fluid reservoir, a chamber having a side in thermal contact with a portion of the heat generating component, in which cooling fluid delivered by the cooling apparatus is to be heated through receipt of heat from the heat generating component, a cooling plate positioned at a distance and separated from the chamber, and a cooling fluid tube connecting the chamber and the cooling plate, in which the heated cooling fluid is to flow through the cooling fluid tube to the cooling plate. The cooling plate is also to be in thermal contact with a heat exchanger that that is to remove heat from the cooling fluid.
