Thermal load balancing systems and methods

摘要

Systems and methods for implementing thermal load balancing are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, a thermal load balancing system for a multiprocessor computer having a plurality of processors may comprise a heat sink network having a plurality of local heat sinks. The local heat sinks are thermally coupled to separate processors in the multiprocessor computer. At least one heat pipe thermally couples each of the plurality of local heat sinks in the heat sink network.
