Abstract:
A method for cooling an electronic device, said electronic device having at least one component creating a first heated air mass and at least one system component creating a second heated air mass, said method comprising the steps of:creating a first airflow, said first air flow having a first velocity; mixing said first air flow and a portion of said first heated air mass thereby creating a mixed first air flow; restricting said mixed first air flow by channeling said mixed first air flow through a restriction chamber thereby increasing said first velocity; mixing a second air flow and a portion of said second heated air mass thereby creating a mixed second air flow wherein said mixed second air flow does not pass over said at least one component; creating a first vacuum pressure having said mixed second air flow in a first opening in said restriction chamber thereby creating a first venturi vent; mixing said mixed first air flow and said mixed second air flow thereby creating a combined air flow; and exhausting said combined air flow outside of said electronic device.
