发明名称 Thermoelectric-enhanced, inlet air-cooled thermal conductors
摘要 A cooling apparatus includes a thermal conductor first portion 410 coupled to the heat-dissipating components, and a second conductor portion 420 positioned along the enclosure's air inlet side. The apparatus further includes air-cooled heat sinks coupled to the second conductor portion, to facilitate transfer of heat from the second conductor portion to the airflow ingressing into the enclosure, and thermoelectric devices coupled to at least one of the first or second conductor portions to selectively provide supplementary cooling. A controller controls operation of the thermoelectric devices and selectively switches operation of the cooling apparatus between an active cooling mode, where the thermoelectric devices are active, and a passive cooling mode, where the thermoelectric device is inactive.
