  • Publication number: 20240151479
    Abstract: A vapor chamber heatsink assembly, under vacuum, having a working fluid therein, comprising a plurality of heatsink fins and a vapor chamber is provided. The vapor chamber and the plurality of heatsink fins each comprise a plurality of obstructers defining a plurality of braided channels therein. Thus, the condenser regions of the vapor chamber are expanded to the plurality of heatsink fins. When heat from a greater temperature heat source and a lower temperature heat source is applied to the vapor chamber, via the plurality of obstructers and braided channels, the working fluid and liquid vapor travel therethrough, providing an effective phase change mechanism to the greater temperature heat source, while concurrently, hindering agglomeration of working fluid thereto. An effective phase change mechanism is also concurrently provided to the lower temperature heat source due to the non-agglomeration of working fluid to the greater temperature heat source.
