Abstract:
A heat exchanger for cooling a plurality of heat-generating components with flat surfaces arranged in spaced parallel relation to one another has at least three flat, fluid-carrying panels, including a first end panel, a second end panel, and at least one middle panel. The middle panels have both of their opposed surfaces in thermal contact with a surface of a heat generating component. The end panels each have one surface in thermal contact with a surface of a heat-generating component. Inlet and outlet manifolds of the heat exchanger are in communication with the inlet and outlet openings of the middle panels. The inlet manifold communicates with the inlet opening of the first end panel, the outlet manifold communicates with the outlet opening of the second end panel, and the outlet opening of the first end panel communicates with the inlet opening of the second end panel.

Claim (Index 37):
The heat exchanger of  claim 36 , wherein the second portion further comprises a fitting plate, and wherein:\n (a) the bottom plate includes a first longitudinal slot, a second longitudinal slot, and a third slot, each of which extends through the bottom plate, wherein the first and second longitudinal slots extending along opposite sides of the bottom plate, and the third slot extends generally diagonally across the bottom plate, the third slot having a central portion located between the first and second longitudinal slots, and having first and second end portions aligned longitudinally with the respective first and second longitudinal slots; (b) the middle plate having a plurality of openings extending through the middle plate and arranged in pairs, each of the openings in the middle plate being positioned to align with one of the apertures in the top plate, and each of the openings in the middle plate being aligned with one of the first longitudinal slot, the second longitudinal slot, and one of the end portions of the third slot of the bottom plate, wherein the middle plate covers and seals an open top of the third slot, other than the end portions which are aligned with the openings in the middle plate; (c) the fitting plate closes an open bottom of the third slot, wherein the inlet port of the manifold structure comprises a first hole in the fitting plate, the first hole being in alignment with the first longitudinal slot; and the outlet port of the manifold structure comprises a second hole in the fitting plate, the second hole being in alignment with the second longitudinal slot; wherein the first hole and the second hole of the fitting plate are respectively provided with an inlet fitting and an outlet fitting.
