    Abstract: A vapor chamber (20) for cooling an electronic component (28) is provided. The vapor chamber (20) comprises: a bottom cover (24) for receiving waste heat from the electronic component (28); a top cover (26), which is arranged on the bottom cover (24), wherein the bottom cover (24) and the top cover (26) are formed such that a vapor cavity (22) for accommodating a liquid is formed between the bottom cover (24) and the top cover (26); a crate element (32) for providing mechanical strength to the vapor chamber (20), wherein the crate element (32) has at least one compartment (34), which is formed by at least three side panels (36) being connected to each other and extending from the bottom cover (24) to the top cover (26), and a top recess (40) facing the top cover (26) and a bottom recess (38) facing the bottom cover (24); and at least one porous pillar (50) for transferring the liquid from the top cover (26) to the bottom cover (24), wherein the porous pillar (50) is arranged in the compartment (34) and extends from the bottom cover (24) through the bottom recess (38) and the top recess (40) to the top cover (26).

    Abstract: It is proposed a cooling unit (100) for a power electronic module arrangement. The cooling unit includes a two-phase heat exchanger (101) including a plurality of tube elements (120), each of which having at least one tube extending in a width direction (301) of the cooling unit, within and communicating between an evaporator portion (121) and a condenser portion (122) of the cooling unit (100). The tube elements are arranged in a spaced-apart manner along a depth direction (303) of the cooling unit forming cooling paths (213) for allowing an external cooling medium (130) to flow through the cooling paths, the cooling paths traversing the condenser portion in a length direction (302) of the cooling unit (100). The cooling unit further includes flow guides (141; 142) for forcing an external cooling medium (130) arriving at the heat exchanger through the cooling paths and then away from the cooling unit.
