ABSTRACT:
The invention is a cooling structure for a high power density surface. Fluid is pumped along interconnected and continuous multiple channels on the backside of a sintered metal wick bonded to the cooled surface. The channels are located within a fluid layer which also includes multiple fluid holes, so that each hole is surrounded by interconnected channels. The holes are connected to a manifold to collect or supply the pumped fluid. The channels which surround each hole are connected to another manifold attached to the structure, and the proximity of the channels to the holes assures that fluid flow resistance within the sintered metal wick is minimized by the multiple short, wide paths.
