Claim Text:
1. A scalable liquid submersion cooling system for electronics, comprising: a plurality of modular electronics enclosures, each enclosure includes a liquid tight section that houses a plurality of electronic components to be liquid submersion cooled, a plurality of electronic components in the liquid-tight section, a liquid inlet to the liquid-tight section, and a liquid outlet from the liquid-tight section; a plurality of modular manifolds each of which is configured to fluidly connect to each electronics enclosure, each modular manifold includes a liquid supply manifold portion and a liquid return manifold portion, a plurality of liquid supply outlets in the liquid supply manifold portion, at least one liquid supply inlet in the liquid supply manifold portion, a plurality of liquid return inlets in the liquid return manifold portion, and at least one liquid return outlet in the liquid return manifold portion; and for each of the modular manifolds, the number of liquid supply outlets and the number of liquid return inlets differ between each modular manifold but are the same within each modular manifold; a plurality of modular pumps each of which is configured to fluidly connect to the modular manifolds, each pump having a different pumping performance; and a plurality of modular heat exchanger units each of which is configured to fluidly connect to the modular pumps.
