Title: Curved side oil or fluid separator element
Inventor: TANG YAN
IPC: B01D46/24
Filed: 2004-04-01
Abstract: A curved side oil or fluid separator element for separating liquid or oil from a gas flow has a body portion made of filter media with opposing upper and lower ends. A curved side extends between the upper and lower ends and rotates 360~ about a central axis of the body portion to form a curved surface of the body portion. The curved side of the body portion can be any one of a hyperbolically curved side, a circular arc curved side, an elliptically curved side, or any other curve except a straight line, and any combinations of these curves. In one aspect, the curved side of the body portion is adapted for in-out gas flow allowing the gas flow to exit through the curved side to a communicating outlet of a separator housing. In another aspect, the curved side of the body portion is adapted for out-in gas flow for receiving the gas flow through the curved side from a communicating inlet of the separator housing.

Patent CA-2556666-A1 (CA)
Title: Hotspot spray cooling
Inventor: KNIGHT PAUL A
IPC: F28D15/02
Filed: 2005-02-14
Abstract: The present invention is a spray cooling thermal management device that cools an electronic component creating a varying amount of heat across its surfaces.  Liquid coolant is dispensed upon the surface of the component. In areas of the chip that generate large heat fluxes, typically referred to as the core, the liquid coolant is dispensed as a continuous atomized droplet pattern. The atomized pattern creates a high heat flux evaporative cooling thin-film over the one or more core areas. Rather than optimize the atomized pattern and flow based upon complete thin-film vaporization, the present invention optimizes the atomized pattern for maximum heat removal rates. Any excess, non-vaporized, fluid flowing outward from the hotspot is used to cool the lower heat flux (non-core) areas of the component through the creation of a thick coolant film thereon.
