Systems and methods for cooling a datacenter are disclosed. In at least one embodiment, a number of multi-dimensional column-based heat dissipation features enable cooling by a cooling media flowing there through so that an individual heat dissipation column having a first dimension and a second dimension may be supported, with the first dimension being normal relative to an axial flow path of the cooling media, with the second dimension being parallel or offset from parallel relative to the axial flow path and with the second dimension being more than the first dimension.

Multi-dimensional column-based heat dissipation features for datacenter cooling systems

An electronic device includes an integrated circuit and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger includes a heat pipe and a first plurality of cooling fins and a second plurality of cooling fins. The heat pipe is thermally coupled to the integrated circuit and has an evaporator portion and a condenser portion, where the condenser portion extends away from the evaporator portion. The first plurality of cooling fins are attached to the condenser portion and proximate to the evaporation portion and form a plenum having a first associated pressure drop when a cooling fluid flows across the first plurality of cooling fins at a first velocity. The second plurality of cooling fins are attached to the condenser portion and distal from the evaporation portion and form a flow path having a second associated pressure drop when the cooling fluid flows across the second plurality of cooling fins at the first velocity.
