Abstract:
A refrigeration system allows the refrigerant to circulate through a closed circulation channel. A dry evaporator is incorporated in the circulation channel. The dry evaporator is designed to keep a quality smaller than 1.0 in evaporating the refrigerant. The quantity of heat transfer per unit area, namely, a heat transfer coefficient depends on the quality. The heat transfer coefficient remarkably drops when the quality of the refrigerant exceeds a predetermined threshold level before the quality actually reaches 1.0. The quality of the refrigerant kept below the predetermined threshold level during vaporization of the refrigetant in the dry evaporator allows a reliable establishment of a higher performance of cooling. On the other hand, if a refrigerant completely evaporates in a dry evaporator in a conventional manner, the heat transfer coefficient of the refrigerant *remarkably drops after the quality of the refrigerant exceeds the predetermined threshold level. Accordingly, the conventional dry evaporator is forced to absorb heat at a lower heat transfer coefficient, as compared with the present dry evaporator.
Abstract:
An electronic apparatus including a motherboard, a plurality of multi-chip modules mounted to the motherboard and cooling members for cooling the multi-chip modules. A refrigeration unit is arranged to deliver cooling water to the cooling members. A connection structure is provided for each multi-chip module for thermally and mechanically releasably coupling each multi-chip module to the refrigeration unit.
