Closed loop hybrid cooling

Abstract:

A hybrid cooling server assembly can have a printed circuit board (PCB) with a processor socket disposed thereon and a hybrid cooling plate can be operably coupled with the processor socket. A radiator can having a working fluid received therein and be in fluidic communication with the radiator and the hybrid cooling plate by one or more tubular members. One or more cooling fans can be proximal to the radiator. The working fluid can be operable to receive heat from the cooling plate and reject heat at the radiator and the one or more cooling fans can be operable to produce an airflow across the hybrid cooling plate, thereby allowing the hybrid cooling plate transfer thermal energy to the airflow.
