When the apparatus is used, a volume of the magnetic fluid in one of the first to fourth conduit areas, in which a flow direction of the magnetic fluid coincides with a gravity direction, is larger than that of another conduit area, in which the flow direction of the magnetic fluid does not coincide with the gravity direction. | 2022-08-18 |
20220264768 | IMMERSION COOLING SYSTEM - An immersion cooling system includes a sealed tank having a chamber. A circulating layer and a working layer are respectively formed by first and second working liquids filled in the chamber and are contiguous to each other. The boiling point of the second working liquid is higher than that of the first working liquid. The density of the second working liquid is lower than that of the first working liquid. The first and second working liquids do not dissolve in each other. A circulating cooling module includes a circulating pipeline having first and second ports located in the chamber. The circulating pipeline also has a heat absorbing section and a condensation section located between the first and second ports. The heat absorbing section is located in the working layer. The first working liquid flows into the circulating pipeline from the first port and circulates in the circulating pipeline. | 2022-08-18 |
20220264769 | POWER CONVERTER AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING POWER CONVERTER - A power converter includes a cooler, a housing, a cooling plate, an insulating heat dissipation member, and a circuit board. The housing includes a bottom, a sidewall, and an internal space. The bottom is connected to the cooler. The cooling plate is connected to the bottom so as to stand upright with respect to the bottom. The insulating heat dissipation member is disposed on the cooling plate. The circuit board is connected to the cooling plate with the insulating heat dissipation member interposed therebetween. The cooling plate, the insulating heat dissipation member, and the circuit board are accommodated in the internal space of the housing. The cooling plate is disposed with a gap from the sidewall. | 2022-08-18 |
20220264770 | COMPUTER SYSTEM WITH EXTERNAL BYPASS AIR PLENUM - A rack-mountable computer system enables an airflow that cools components in an upstream portion of the computer system interior to be cooled through mixing with a bypass airflow downstream of the components in the upstream portion. The mixed airflow can cool components in a downstream portion of the interior. The bypass airflow is directed by a bypass plenum that is unencompassed by the separate plenum that directs the airflow to cool the upstream portion components. The bypass plenum can be at least partially established by an external surface the computer system and one or more external structures, including an external surface of an adjacently mounted computer system. Relative flow rates through the separate plenums can be adjusted, via flow control elements, to separately control heat removal from components upstream and downstream of the air mixing, based at least in part upon air temperatures in the separate interior portions. | 2022-08-18 |
20220264771 | INTELLIGENT TWO-PHASE REFRIGERANT-TO-AIR HEAT EXCHANGER FOR DATACENTER COOLING SYSTEMS - Systems and methods for cooling a datacenter are disclosed. In at least one embodiment, a refrigerant-to-air (R2A) heat exchanger is interfaced with at least one cold plate to absorb heat from at least one computing device using a two-phase fluid and is interfaced with a compressor or condensing unit that causes dissipation of at least part of the heat within a datacenter. | 2022-08-18 |
