Abstract
A cooling system may include a first domain having a first fluid inlet and a first fluid outlet. A cooling system may include a second domain having a second fluid inlet and a second fluid outlet. A cooling system may include a thermal break between the first domain and the second domain. The thermal break includes a thermal gap separating the first domain and the second domain by 1 mm or less.
Claims20
A cold plate for use on a computing device, comprising:
- a first domain having a first inlet and a first outlet;
- a second domain having a second inlet and a second outlet;
- and
- a thermal break between the first domain and the second domain, the thermal break including a thermal gap separating the first domain and the second domain by 1 mm or less.
1 more element
A computing system, comprising:
- a plurality of heat-generating components secured to a base, each heat-generating component of the plurality of heat-generating components having a different heat generation;
- and
- a cold plate including:
- a plurality of domains, each domain being associated with a heat-generating component of the plurality of heat-generating components;
- and
- a thermal break between two of the plurality of domains, the thermal break including an insulating material.
3 more elements
A method for cooling a computing device, comprising:
- providing a first cooling fluid to a first domain of a cold plate, the first domain thermally connected to a first heat-generating component;
- providing a second cooling fluid to a second domain of the cold plate, the second domain thermally connected to a second heat-generating component;
- and
- maintaining a thermal gradient across a thermal break between the first domain and the second domain, the thermal gradient being located across a thermal gap of 1 mm or less between the first domain and the second domain.
