RACK-MOUNTABLE HEAT-EXCHANGER FOR MODULAR ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18448778 titled 'RACK-MOUNTABLE HEAT-EXCHANGER FOR MODULAR ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a heat-exchanger for modular electronic systems that can be mounted on a rack.
- The heat exchanger has separate paths for ambient air and recirculating air.
- The housing for the electronic device has its own internal airflow path.
- Ducts are used to connect the recirculating air and internal air paths.
- Fan assemblies are placed in the airflow paths to propel air through the heat exchanger.
Original Abstract Submitted
A rack-mountable heat-exchanger for modular electronic systems is provided that include a heat exchanger including ambient air inlets and outlets forming an ambient airflow path in a first direction, and recirculating air inlets and outlets forming a recirculating airflow path in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction separated from the ambient airflow path; housing for an electronic device, the housing including internal air inlets and outlets forming an internal airflow path; a first duct configured to link the recirculating air outlet to the internal air inlet; a second duct configured to link the recirculating air inlet to the internal air outlet; and fan assemblies located one of the airflow path, configured to propel air through the heat exchanger in the respective airflow path.
