Method and apparatus for cooling heat-generating structure
Abstract
An apparatus (10) includes a heat receiving portion (103) which receives heat within a footprint (104) from a heat generating structure (22,24), and a cooling arrangement (100) which causes flow of a coolant that absorbs heat at the heat receiving portion, the cooling arrangement being disposed in its entirety within a width of the footprint (104) in a particular direction. A different feature involves an apparatus which includes a heat receiving portion (16) at which a coolant receives heat, and a coolant separating portion (42) which receives coolant traveling away from the heat receiving portion, and which separates liquid coolant from vapor coolant.
