Abstract:
A reversible cooling loop for a notebook computer is described. Specifically, at low power levels, a two-phase fluid cooling loop is implemented to conserve the battery life. At high power levels, a refrigeration loop is implemented.
Abstract:
A method, apparatus and system are described for carbon nanotube wick structures. The system may include a frame and an apparatus. The apparatus may include a heat exchanger, a cold plate with a cold plate internal volume, and a heat pipe in the cold plate internal volume. In some embodiments, the heat pipe includes a thermally conductive wall material forming the inner dimensions of the heat pipe, a catalyst layer deposited onto the wall material, a carbon nanotube array formed on the catalyst layer, and a volume of working fluid. Other embodiments may be described.

Abstract:
An apparatus includes a micro channel structure that has micro channels formed therein. The micro channels are for transporting a coolant and are intended to be proximate to an integrated circuit to transfer heat from the integrated circuit to the coolant. The apparatus further includes a cover positioned on the micro channel structure. The cover has formed therein a right-angle passage to provide fluid communication between a first port on a lower horizontal surface of the cover and a second port on a vertical surface of the cover. The cover includes a plurality of tabs. Each tab extends from a respective corner of the cover. The tabs each have an aperture formed therein. The apertures are shaped and sized to receive a fastener.
Abstract:

Abstract:
According to some embodiments, systems for improved blower fans are provided. In some embodiments, systems may include a casing (210) comprising an inlet (212,214) to accept a fluid and an outlet (216) to evacuate the fluid. The systems may further comprise an impeller disposed within the casing, comprising a hub (220) and one or more impeller blades (222) coupled to the hub. In some embodiments, the inlet of the casing may be shaped (218) to reduce the amount of fluid that evacuates the casing via the inlet due to pressure within the casing.
