Computer System That Can Be Operated Without A Cooling Fan

Computer System That Can Be Operated Without A Cooling Fan

US Patent:
6504719, Jan 7, 2003
Filed:
Mar 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/823594
Inventors:
Rolf A. Konstad - Gold River CA
Paul J. Gwin - Orangevale CA
Assignee:
Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H05K 720
US Classification:
361698, 361687, 361689, 361694, 361695, 361699, 361701, 361702, 361709, 361711, 174 151, 174 163, 165 807, 16510432
Abstract:
A computer system is provided having a heat exchanger that is relatively large. Although the heat exchanger is large, it is still sufficiently light because of its plastic material. Because of the large size of the heat exchanger, a relatively large surface is provided by the cumulative outer surfaces of fins. The relatively large surface area results in a lower heat flux. The lower heat flux obviates the need for forced convection. There is thus no need to use fans when the computer system is at room temperature.

Sealed And Pressurized Liquid Cooling System For Microprocessor

US Patent:
6809928, Oct 26, 2004
Filed:
Dec 27, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/330915
Inventors:
Paul J. Gwin - Orangevale CA
Rolf A. Konstad - Gold River CA
Peter A. Davison - Puyallup WA
Mark A. Trautman - Aloha OR
Assignee:
Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H05K 720
US Classification:
361699, 165 804, 16510426, 361702, 361701, 361697
Abstract:
According to some embodiments, a cooling system that may be installed in a computer chassis has a fluid-containing space that is sealed and pressurized by an inert gas. The fluid-containing space may be formed from a cold plate that may serve as a heat sink for an integrated circuit, a heat exchanger, tubing, and a pump volume. A coolant may be contained in the fluid-containing space.

Fan-Cooled Card

Fan-Cooled Card

US Patent:
6452797, Sep 17, 2002
Filed:
Nov 12, 1997
Appl. No.:
08/968399
Inventors:
Rolf A. Konstad - Gold River CA
Assignee:
Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H05K 720
US Classification:
361695, 165 803, 361687, 454184
Abstract:
To manage heat generated by an electric circuit, a fan is provided to generate an air flow through a ducting structure over the electric circuit. For example, in a graphics accelerator card, a fan is placed in a void in the card and a ducting structure is placed over the fan and the graphics controller IC chip of the card. Air flow generated by the fan travels over the IC chip via the ducting structure to reduce the ambient temperature around the IC chip. The height of the ducting structure from a surface of the graphics accelerator card may be made sufficiently small so as to satisfy height requirements set forth in specifications such as the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) and Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) specifications.

Computer Assembly For Cooling High Powered Microprocessors

US Patent:
6407916, Jun 18, 2002
Filed:
Jun 12, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/592117
Inventors:
Rolf A. Konstad - Gold River CA
Assignee:
Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H05K 720
US Classification:
361687, 622592, 16510433, 361695, 361700, 454184
Abstract:
An improved computer assembly is disclosed, which includes a chassis that has at least one drive bay, the drive bay having an opening. A heat sink is positioned within the drive bay and a thermally conductive component is coupled to the heat sink and to a processor assembly. In a preferred embodiment, a heat pipe couples the thermally conductive component to the heat sink.
