Patent ID: 8107234

Claim:
A computer system comprising: a processor having a first side and a second side; a group of memory components electrically coupled to said processor; a power electronics module electrically coupled to provide electrical power to said processor and said group of memory components; a liquid cooling loop thermally coupled to said power electronics module; and, a cold plate thermally coupled to said processor and fluidly coupled to said liquid cooling loop, said cold plate including: a first inlet fluidly coupled to the liquid cooling loop; a second inlet fluidly coupled in series with said first inlet; a third inlet fluidly coupled in series with said first inlet; a first plurality of nozzles having a first diameter fluidly coupled in series with said second inlet; a second plurality of nozzles having a second diameter said second diameter being larger than said first diameter, the second plurality of nozzles being fluidly coupled in series with said third inlet; and, a first plurality of channels fluidly coupled to said first plurality of nozzles and said second plurality of nozzles; wherein said first plurality of nozzles and said second plurality of nozzles are arranged to directly flow a cooling fluid to said processor first side and said first plurality of channels are arranged to flow said cooling liquid from said processor first side to said liquid cooling loop; a conductive collector thermally coupled to said liquid cooling loop, the conductive collector having a first conductive collector portion thermally coupled to said cold plate and a second conductive collector portion adjacent to said group of memory components; and, a heat collector disposed between said second conductive collector portion and said group of memory components.
