ANNULAR-SHAPED HEAT PIPE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17946863 titled 'ANNULAR-SHAPED HEAT PIPE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an information handling system with an air mover driving airflow, an information handling resource, and an annular-shaped heat pipe thermally coupled to the information handling resource downstream of the air mover.
- The system includes an air mover that generates airflow.
- An annular-shaped heat pipe is connected to an information handling resource and positioned downstream of the air mover.
- The airflow passes near the annular-shaped heat pipe, allowing for efficient heat dissipation from the information handling resource.
Potential Applications
The technology could be used in:
- Data centers
- High-performance computing systems
- Industrial equipment
Problems Solved
- Efficient cooling of information handling resources
- Prevention of overheating and potential damage to components
Benefits
- Improved system performance and reliability
- Energy efficiency due to effective heat dissipation
- Extended lifespan of information handling resources
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized Cooling System for Information Handling Resources
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include traditional cooling systems such as fans and heat sinks.
Unanswered Questions
How does the annular shape of the heat pipe contribute to its efficiency in heat dissipation?
The article does not delve into the specific design advantages of the annular shape of the heat pipe.
What is the expected lifespan of the annular-shaped heat pipe compared to traditional cooling methods?

Original Abstract Submitted
An information handling system may include an air mover configured to drive an airflow, an information handling resource, and an annular-shaped heat pipe thermally coupled to the information handling resource and located downstream of the air mover and such that the airflow flows proximate to the annular-shaped heat pipe when the air mover drives the airflow.
