ABSTRACT:
A cooling system for a computer system which includes at least one component which generates substantial thermal energy. The cooling system includes a high efficiency heat exchanger formed of a thermally conductive material which is attached to the heat generating component. This heat exchanger comprises a hollow body formed of a thermally conductive material for attachment to the heat generating component, a coolant inlet provided through the wall of the hollow body for providing cooling air from received from an air compressor to the interior of the heat exchanger, and a coolant outlet provided through the wall of the hollow body for providing egress of cooling air from the heat exchanger. Within the hollow body, the exchanger includes a a corrugated metal fin which is periodically lanced to provide for the passage of cooling air through the fin. The metal fin occupies substantially all of the cavity within the heat exchanger's hollow body and is oriented such that the corrugations in the fin are positioned between the heat exchanger's inlet and outlet, providing maximum contact between the cooling air and the surface area of the metal fin.
