Abstract:
1. A system for regulating and distributing cooling fluid flow through a plurality of heat sinks in thermal communication with one or more electronic devices, the system comprising: a system pressure source; a flow regulator fluidicly coupled to, and downstream of, the system pressure source; a distribution header fluidicly coupled to, and downstream of, the flow regulator; a first cooling fluid line fluidicly coupled to, and downstream of, the distribution header; a second cooling fluid line fluidicly coupled to, and downstream of, the distribution header; a first fixed orifice fluidicly coupled to, and downstream of, the first cooling fluid line; and a second fixed orifice fluidicly coupled to, and downstream of, the second cooling fluid line; a first heat sink fluidicly coupled to, and downstream of, the first fixed orifice; and a second heat sink fluidicly coupled to, and downstream of, the second fixed orifice, wherein the fixed orifices include nonadjustable openings there through that are sized so that a first flow rate through the first heat sink and a second flow rate through the second heat sink are uniform with respect to each other regardless of the temperature of the one or more electronic devices; and wherein the system further comprises more than one flow regulator downstream of the system pressure source and at least two orifices downstream of each flow regulator.
