Abstract:
1. A liquid cooling system comprising: a cooling body comprising a cooling base for thermally contacting a heat source, and a heat sink mounted on the cooling base, the cooling body defining an internal flow path for heat exchange with coolant, the heat sink forming at least two passages therethrough; and a liquid circulation module defining a plurality of external flow paths coupled to said internal flow path thereby for forming a loop for circulation of the coolant, said external flow paths comprising at least two output paths extending through the at least two passages, and along which the coolant that exits said internal flow path passes through the heat sink for cooling; wherein the heat sink comprises a plurality of cooling fins connected together; and wherein each of the cooling fins defines a cutout therein, and the cutouts cooperatively form a groove corresponding to an outer profile of the cooling base, the cooling fins being mounted to the cooling base at the groove.
