Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2007102978A1] According to one embodiment of the invention, a cooling system for heat- generating structures comprises a plurality of heat exchangers, a structure which directs flow of the fluid coolant substantially in the form of a liquid to each of the plurality of heat exchangers, and a structure which reduces a pressure of the fluid coolant to a pressure at which the fluid coolant has a boiling temperature less than a temperature of the heat- generating structures. Each of the plurality of heat exchangers is in thermal communication with at least one of the heat-generating structures and has an inlet and an outlet. Thermal energy from the heat-generating structure causes the fluid coolant substantially in the form of a liquid to boil and vaporize in each of the plurality of heat exchangers so that the fluid coolant absorbs thermal energy from the heat-generating structure as the fluid coolant changes state.
