ABSTRACT:
Some embodiments of a method, apparatus and computer system are described for inverted vortex generator enhanced cooling. In various embodiments an apparatus may comprise a first surface comprising at least one heated component, a second surface in proximity to the first surface, the second surface comprising a non-heated surface, and one or more inverted vortex generators attached to the non-heated surface, a portion of the one or more inverted vortex generators in proximity to and configured to dissipate heat from the at least one heated component. Other embodiments are described.
