Abstract
A system including a cooling element and an egress passageway is described. The cooling element is configured to provide a stream of hot air having been heated by a heat from a heat-generating structure. The hot air passes through the egress passageway toward an egress. The egress passageway includes at least one inlet through which cool air is drawn to be mixed with the hot air.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a cooling element configured to provide a stream of hot air having been heated by a heat from a heat-generating structure;
- and
- an egress passageway through which the hot air passes toward an egress, wherein the egress passageway includes at least one inlet through which cool air is drawn to be mixed with the hot air.
A system, comprising:
- an active cooling system including a plurality of active cooling cells and a heat spreader in thermal communication with a heat-generating structure, each of the plurality of active cooling cells including a cooling element, wherein the cooling element undergoes vibrational motion when actuated to drive air toward the heat spreader, the air being heated by heat from the heat-generating structure, forming a stream of hot air;
- and
- an egress passageway through which the hot air passes toward an egress, wherein the egress passageway includes at least one inlet through which cool air is drawn to be mixed with the hot air.
A method, comprising:
- driving a cooling element to induce a vibrational motion at a frequency, the vibrational motion providing a stream of hot air having been heated by a heat from a heat-generating structure;
- wherein the hot air passes through an egress passageway toward an egress, the egress passageway including at least one inlet through which cool air is drawn in and mixed with the hot air.
