Refrigerant intermediary device, cooling device including the same, and cooling method

A cooling device including a refrigerant intermediary device, comprising:

• a refrigerant intermediary device including
• a refrigerant container configured to contain refrigerant,
• a first inlet, provided for an outer periphery of the refrigerant container, through which a vapor-phase refrigerant and a first liquid-phase refrigerant flowing in,
• a first outlet, provided for the outer periphery of the refrigerant container, through which the vapor-phase refrigerant flowing out,
• a second inlet, provided for the outer periphery of the refrigerant container, through which a second liquid-phase refrigerant flowing in, and
• a second outlet, provided for the outer periphery of the refrigerant container, through which the first liquid-phase refrigerant and the second liquid-phase refrigerant flowing;
• a heat receiving unit configured to contain refrigerant for receiving heat from a heat source;
• and
• a condensing unit configured to condense and liquefy the vapor-phase refrigerant that is a vapor-state refrigerant evaporated in the heat receiving unit, and generate the second liquid-phase refrigerant,
• wherein the refrigerant intermediary device is respectively connected with the heat receiving unit and the condensing unit, and located above the heat receiving unit.

A cooling method, comprising:

• generating a vapor-phase refrigerant of a vapor-state refrigerant and a first liquid-phase refrigerant of a liquid-state refrigerant by receiving heat from a plurality of heat sources;
• converging streams of the vapor-phase refrigerant generated by each of the plurality of heat sources;
• separating the first liquid-phase refrigerant;
• generating a second liquid-phase refrigerant by condensing and liquefying the vapor-phase refrigerant;
• and
• generating refrigerant liquid by converging the second liquid-phase refrigerant and the first liquid-phase refrigerant, pooling the refrigerant liquid and then separating the refrigerant liquid into a plurality of fluxes, and circulating the fluxes separated of the refrigerant liquid so as to receive heat from the plurality of heat sources respectively.
