Heat management system

A heat management system for controlling the temperature inside of a cabinet containing a plurality of electronic systems and components comprising:

• a first heat exchanger that is thermally interconnected with at least one of said electronic systems and components including a conduit having an entrance, an exit and arranged to be in confronting relation to a portion of a housing supporting a portion of said plurality of electronic systems and components so as to form a passageway for a liquid coolant fluid to travel through said conduit in thermal communication with said portion of said housing;
• a second heat exchanger including a condenser arranged in fluid flow communication with said entrance and said exit of said channel and a plurality of fans arranged in confronting relation to said condenser;
• and
• a third heat exchanger including at least one stack of substantially parallel plates arranged in two-plate assemblies wherein each two-plate assembly has a closed edge and an open edge such that a closed edge of one two-plate assembly is sandwiched between an open edge of two adjacent two-plate assemblies and at least two fans, one fan arranged so as to (i) blow air onto a portion of said plurality of electronic systems and components (ii) draw heated air away from said portion of said plurality of electronic systems and components and (iii) blow said heated air into said open ends of said two-plate assemblies;
• and one fan arranged so as to circulate air from the environment surrounding said heat management system through said third heat exchanger.

A heat management system for controlling the temperature inside of a cabinet containing a plurality of electronic systems and components comprising:

• a first heat exchanger that is thermally interconnected with at least one of said electronic systems and components including a cold plate comprising a serpentine conduit having an entrance port, an exit port and arranged to be in confronting relation to a wall of a housing supporting a portion of said plurality of electronic systems and components so as to form a passageway for a liquid coolant fluid to travel through said cold plate in thermal communication with said wall of said housing;
• a second heat exchanger including a condenser arranged in fluid flow communication with said entrance port and said exit port of said cold plate and a plurality of fans arranged in confronting relation to said condenser;
• and
• a third heat exchanger including at least one stack of substantially parallel plates arranged in two-plate assemblies wherein each two-plate assembly has a closed edge and an open edge such that a closed edge of one two-plate assembly is sandwiched between an open edge of two adjacent two-plate assemblies and at least two fans, one fan arranged so as to (i) blow air onto a portion of said plurality of electronic systems and components (ii) draw heated air away from said-portion of said plurality of electronic systems and components and (iii) blow said heated air into said open ends of said two-plate assemblies;
• and one fan arranged so as to circulate air from the environment surrounding said heat management system through said third heat exchanger.
