    Abstract: A cooling system, for example, for rack mounted electronic devices (e.g., servers, processors, memory, networking devices or otherwise) in a data center. In various disclosed implementations, the cooling system may be or include a liquid cold plate assembly that is part of or integrated with a server tray package. In some implementations, the liquid cold plate assembly includes a base portion and a top portion that, in combination, form a cooling liquid flow path through which a cooling liquid is circulated and a thermal interface between one or more heat generating devices and the cooling liquid.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing the dead space around the periphery of a chip for sealing a direct liquid cooled module are disclosed. One of the functions of a direct liquid cooled module is to provide cooling liquid to components located on a chip. A groove member for receiving a sealing member may be applied to the top surface of the chip. The groove member may be directly deposited to the top surface or coupled thereto via an adhesive and/or epoxy. The groove member may be in the form of opposing sidewalls or a u-shaped structure each of which form a partial enclosure for receipt of the sealing member. The groove member may be located entirely within the dead space or at least partially within the dead space and partially within a central area in which the chip components are located. The sealing member may be an O-ring or a gasket.

    Abstract: An apparatus that first and second volumes are fluidly separated by a combination of a first second and a second sections, where the first section is insoluble to a cooling liquid and the second section is soluble to the cooling liquid. In the event of a leak of coolant liquid, the second sections dissolve, forming a fluid path from the first volume to the second volume. The coolant liquid may then escape the first volume in spaces that result from the dissolution of the second sections.
