On-Chip Two-Phase Cooling with Refrigerant 85 mu m-Wide Multi-Microchannel Evaporator Under Hot-Spot Conditions

John Richard Thome, Stefano Nebuloni, Etienne Costa-Patry, Jonathan Olivier

Hot-spots are present in micro-electronics and are challenging to cool effectively. This paper presents highly nonuniform heat flux measurements obtained for a pseudo-CPU with 35 local heaters and temperature sensors cooled by a silicon multi-microchannel ...

On-Chip Cooling of Hot-Spots with a Copper Micro-Evaporator

John Richard Thome, Etienne Costa-Patry

Hot-spots are present in micro-electronics and are challenging to cool effectively. Using a copper micro-evaporator mounted on a pseudo-chip, on-chip two-phase cooling was found to very effectively cool the hot-spots without inducing flow instabilities. Bu ...

Cooling High Heat Flux Micro-Electronic Systems using Refrigerants in High Aspect Ratio Multi-Microchannel Evaporators

Etienne Costa-Patry

Improving the energy efficiency of cooling systems can contribute to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. Currently, most microelectronic applications are air-cooled. Switching to two-phase cooling systems would decrease power consumption and allow for ...
