Abstract:
1. A computer module, comprising: a housing including a cover defining a condenser chamber, and a plurality of heat-dissipating fins provided within said condenser chamber and dividing said condenser chamber into a plurality of flow channels that are inclined with respect to a horizontal plane, said condenser chamber having an inlet, and an outlet that is disposed lower than said inlet; a heat-absorbing unit disposed in said housing and having at least one cavity body adapted to contact a heat source, and a working fluid received in said cavity body; and a tubing unit connected fluidly to said condenser chamber and said heat-absorbing unit, said working fluid flowing through said tubing unit to circulate from said condenser chamber to said heat-absorbing unit by gravity and from said heat-absorbing unit to said condenser chamber by natural convection, said tubing unit forming a closed circulating loop with said heat-absorbing unit and said condenser chamber; wherein said cover is adapted to exchange heat with external cold air so as to condense said working fluid in said condenser chamber; and wherein said cover is disposed at a top side of said housing, and has a substantially horizontal top wall having opposite first and second ends, a side wall extending downwardly from said first end, and an inclined wall extending from said second end and connected to said side wall below said first end, said inlet being disposed in said inclined wall proximate to said second end, said outlet being disposed in said inclined wall proximate to said side wall.
