Abstract: A cooling system has a cooling bath. The open space of the cooling bath contains a second coolant having a boiling point, and having an electronic device that has a processor that is a heat generating component mounted on a board, and is immersed in the second coolant. A boiling cooling device is thermally connected to the processor, and encloses a first coolant having a boiling point. A first heat exchanger has a high-temperature side passage formed of a group of narrow gaps or a group of micro passages, through which the second coolant is passed, and a low-temperature side passage formed of a group of narrow gaps or a group of micro passages, through which a third cooling medium having a boiling point is passed. A pump is configured to pressurize and deliver the second coolant warmed in the cooling bath toward the inlet of the high-temperature side passage.

Abstract: A cooling system is adapted for reduction of evaporative loss of a liquid coolant and for efficient cooling of plural electronic devices densely accommodated in a cooling bath of a small volume. A cooling system accommodates plural electronic devices in an open space of a cooling bath provided with an inlet port and an outlet port for a liquid coolant. The cooling system is configured to directly cool the electronic devices by immersion of the electronic devices in the liquid coolant circulated in the open space. The liquid coolant contains a perfluorinated compound as a main component. The liquid coolant is adapted to exhibit a liquid weight loss percentage of 1.5% or less as determined by allowing 10 ml of the liquid coolant in a 10-ml measuring cylinder (opening diameter: 11.5 mm) to spontaneously evaporate under normal environment at a room temperature of 25° C. for 100 hours.

Abstract: Provided is a cooling system capable of effectively avoiding generation of bubbles in the flow passage including the piping unit that climbs over the barrier upon start of the pump that has been in the stopped state. The cooling system 100 includes a cooling tank 11 filled with a coolant C, flow passages 15, 16 through which the coolant discharged from an outlet of the cooling tank 11 returns to an inlet of the cooling tank 11, an inverted U-like piping unit 16a disposed in the middle of the flow passage 16, a main pump 31, an auxiliary pump 33 disposed opposite the main pump 31 while interposing the inverted U-like piping unit 16a with the main pump 31, and a controller 35 which controls driving operations of the main pump 31 and the auxiliary pump 33. The controller 35 drives the auxiliary pump 33 for a predetermined time period before starting the main pump 31. The predetermined time period for driving the auxiliary pump 33 may be arbitrarily set so long as the preliminary flow of the coolant C is generated. As the auxiliary pump 33 may be driven for only a short time period, silence in the room is hardly deteriorated even in the case that the pump is disposed inside the building.
