Heat exchange module

A heat exchange module comprising:

• a base plate;
• an evaporator mounted on the base plate adapted for contacting a heat-generating electronic component;
• working fluid contained in the evaporator, the working fluid turning into vapor upon receiving heat from the electronic component;
• a vapor conduit having a first end connecting with the evaporator and a second end;
• a condenser mounted on the base plate, the second end of the vapor conduct connecting with the condenser, the vapor turning into liquid in the condenser;
• a liquid conduit having a first end connecting with the condenser and a second end connecting the evaporator, the liquid flowing to the evaporator via the liquid conduit, wherein the condenser has a slanted surface declining from the second end of the vapor conduit towards the first end of the liquid conduit, the liquid in the condenser being guided by the slanted surface to flow to the first end of the liquid conduit;
• an air guiding member mounted on the base plate and accommodating the evaporator and condenser therein;
• and
• a fan mounted to the air guiding member and located adjacent to the condenser.

A heat exchange module for removing heat from a heat-generating component comprising:

• a fan duct including a lower portion and an upper portion, the lower portion cooperating with the upper portion to define therebetween an air passage;
• an evaporator containing therein a working fluid and having a lower protrusion fitting through the lower portion of the fan duct and adapted for thermally contacting the heat-generating component;
• a condenser being in fluid communication with the evaporator, wherein the evaporator and the condenser are received in said air passage, the working fluid turns into vapor in the evaporator upon receiving heat from said heat-generating component and the vapor turns into condensate upon releasing the heat to the condenser;
• and
• an electric fan attached to the fan duct, the electric fan producing an airflow flowing through the air passage for removing the heat away from the condenser;
• wherein the evaporator defines therein a chamber, the chamber having a first region adapted for receiving heat from said heat-generating component and a second region equipped with a wick structure, the vapor conduit and the liquid conduit communicating with the first and second regions, respectively.
