Patent ID: 7661469

Claim:
A method for removing heat from a plurality of n devices, where n is between 2 and 10, said devices being operated in a pulsed synchronized fashion such that the heat generated by each device occurs in a high duty cycle pulsed manner, said pulsed operation occurring at a constant pulse repetition frequency and cycle period, said high duty cycle being defined as device operation during less than or equal to 1/n of the pulsed cycle period, the method comprised of: a. providing a coolant, a coolant flow loop channel, a coolant pump, and a heat exchanger; b. connecting said n devices in series to said coolant flow loop channel, each device being separated from the subsequent device by a predetermined length of coolant flow loop channel; c. pumping said coolant through each device in series at a constant flow rate; and d. delaying the time of coolant flow between the devices by an integer multiple of the pulse cycle period plus or minus the duty cycle period, said flow delay between devices being determined by the coolant flow rate and the length of the portion of coolant flow loop channel between each device, whereby the coolant temperature profile emerging from the nth device will be approximately contiguous, overlapping, and sequential.
