SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMMERSION COOLING WITH SUBCOOLED SPRAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240138112 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMMERSION COOLING WITH SUBCOOLED SPRAY
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a thermal management system for cooling electronics using an immersion tank, a working fluid, a heat exchanger, and fluid conduits.
- The system includes an immersion tank where electronics are submerged for cooling.
- A working fluid inside the immersion tank absorbs heat from the electronics.
- A heat exchanger transfers thermal energy from the working fluid to ambient air to cool it down.
- A first fluid conduit connects the immersion tank to the heat exchanger for fluid circulation.
- A second fluid conduit connects the heat exchanger to a spray nozzle for spraying the working fluid back into the immersion tank.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in various electronic devices, data centers, and industrial equipment to efficiently cool electronics and prevent overheating.
Problems Solved
1. Overheating of electronics. 2. Inefficient cooling systems.
Benefits
1. Improved thermal management. 2. Increased lifespan of electronics. 3. Energy efficiency.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing cooling systems in data centers for improved performance and energy savings.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be traditional air cooling systems used in electronic devices before the development of immersion cooling technology.

Original Abstract Submitted
a thermal management system for cooling electronics includes an immersion tank, a working fluid in the immersion tank, a heat exchanger, a first fluid conduit, and a second fluid conduit. the heat exchanger is configured to transfer thermal energy from the working fluid to ambient air to cool the working fluid. the first fluid conduit provides fluid communication from the immersion tank to the heat exchanger, and the second fluid conduit provides fluid communication from the heat exchanger to a spray nozzle to spray working fluid into the immersion tank.
