Flow through cooling assemblies for conduction-cooled circuit modules

摘要

A cooling assembly is located in a chassis with a conduction-cooled circuit module and permits the conduction-cooled circuit module to be utilized in an air-flow-through or liquid-flow-through circuit module chassis assembly. The cooling assembly may be a removable cooling adapter or may be integral with the chassis. The cooling assembly includes a housing having a first end and a second end and defining one or more fluid passages. The housing further includes a thermal contact surface to contact the conduction-cooled circuit module. The cooling assembly may be configured for air-flow-through or liquid-flow-through cooling of the conduction-cooled circuit module.
