Abstract: A method for providing a cooling system is described. The method includes providing a plurality of sheets. Each sheet includes at least one structure for a level in each cooling cell of a plurality of cooling cells. A particular level of each cooling cell includes a cooling element having a first side and a second side. The cooling element is configured to undergo vibrational motion to drive fluid from the first side to the second side. The method also includes aligning the sheets, attaching the sheets to form a laminate that includes the cooling cells, and separating the laminate into sections. Each section includes at least one cooling cell.

Abstract: A system including a plurality of cooling cells and a switching and control module is described. The cooling cells including cooling elements configured to be actuated to induce vibrational motion to drive a fluid toward a heat-generating structure. The switching and control module is coupled to the cooling elements and provides drive signals to the cooling elements based on at least one drive signal input. Each of the drive signals has a frequency corresponding to a cooling element. The frequency of the drive signal corresponds to a resonant state of the cooling element.

Abstract: An actuator usable in a cooling system is described. The actuator includes an anchored region and a cantilevered arm. The cantilevered arm extends outward from the anchored region. The cantilevered arm includes a step region, an extension region and an outer region. The step region extends outward from the anchored region and has a step thickness. The extension region extends outward from the step region and has an extension thickness less than the step thickness. The outer region extends outward from the extension region and has an outer thickness greater than the extension thickness.

Abstract: A method for providing a piezoelectric device is described. The method includes providing a first electrode layer on a substrate and coating at least one layer of piezoelectric material. The coating using at least one of clot-die coating, dip coating, aerosol coating and R2R coating such that a layer of the at least one layer of piezoelectric material has a variation in thickness of not more than ten percent. The layer(s) of piezoelectric materials are also heat treated. Multiple layers of piezoelectric material may be slot-die coated and heat treated to provide a multilayer having the desired thickness. A second electrode layer is provided on the layer(s) of piezoelectric material.

Abstract: A system including an active cooling system is described. The active cooling system includes a cooling element in communication with a fluid and configured to use vibrational motion to direct a fluid toward a surface of heat-generating structure(s). Heat is transferred from the heat-generating structure to the fluid. The system is configured such that the fluid follows a path from the surface of the heat-generating structure(s) past a structure having a lower temperature than the surface of the heat-generating structure. The structure absorbs heat from the fluid. The structure is within the system and distal from the active cooling system.

Abstract: An active cooling system is described. The active cooling system includes at least one cooling element that has a vent therein and is in communication with a fluid. The cooling element(s) are actuated to vibrate to drive the fluid toward a heat-generating structure and to alternately open and close at least one virtual valve corresponding to the vent. The virtual valve is open for a low flow resistance and closed for a high flow resistance. The vent remains physically open for the virtual valve being closed.

Abstract: An active cooling system and method for using the active cooling system are described. The active cooling system includes a cooling element having a first side and a second side. The first side of the cooling element is distal to a heat-generating structure and in communication with a fluid. The second side of the cooling element is proximal to the heat-generating structure. The cooling element is configured to direct the fluid using a vibrational motion from the first side of the cooling element to the second side such that the fluid moves in a direction that is incident on a surface of the heat-generating structure at a substantially perpendicular angle and then is deflected to move along the surface of the heat-generating structure to extract heat from the heat-generating structure.

Abstract: A piezoelectric cooling chamber and method for providing the cooling system are described. The cooling chamber includes a piezoelectric cooling element, an array of orifices and a valve. A vibrational motion of the piezoelectric cooling element causes an increase or decrease in a chamber volume as the piezoelectric cooling element is deformed. The array of orifices is distributed on at least one surface of the chamber. The orifices allow escape of fluid from within the chamber during the decrease in the chamber volume in response to the vibration of the piezoelectric element. The valve is configured to admit fluid into the chamber when the chamber volume increases and to substantially prevent fluid from exiting the chamber through the valve when the chamber volume decreases.

Abstract: A flow chamber having an upper chamber, a lower chamber, and an actuator is described. The upper chamber includes a top wall. The actuator is located distally from the top wall. The lower chamber includes a bottom wall and a sidewall. The lower chamber receives a fluid from the upper chamber when the actuator is activated. The bottom wall has orifices and at least one cavity therein. The orifices are vertically aligned with a portion of the actuator and allow the fluid to exit the lower chamber. The at least one cavity is proximate to the sidewall and distally located from the orifices.
