An electronics equipment cabinet includes multiple cabinet walls defining an interior enclosure space for housing at least one electronic device, an outer wall positioned to shield from solar radiation an outer surface of at least one of the multiple cabinet walls, and at least one divider wall positioned between the outer wall and the cabinet wall to define first and second channels. The cabinet wall has two openings to allow internal cabinet air to flow between the interior enclosure space and the first channel, while inhibiting external ambient air from entering the interior enclosure space and the first channel. The outer wall has two openings positioned to allow external ambient air to flow through the second channel to cool the internal cabinet air in the first channel via heat exchange through the divider wall, while inhibiting the external cabinet air from mixing with the internal cabinet air.

Electronics equipment cabinets for housing electronic devices

An electrical device with buoyancy-enhanced cooling is provided. The electrical device includes a housing having a first portion including a heat sink and a second portion coupled to the first portion. The heat sink includes a plurality of hollow fins. A cover plate is positioned within the housing and is coupled to the first portion of the housing. The cover plate defines openings between an interior of the housing and the plurality of hollow fins and the openings are located at each end of each hollow fin. Further, an electrical component is positioned within the interior of the housing. Air heated by the electrical component is permitted to circulate within the housing and is directed through the hollow fins based on buoyancy forces (e.g., such that the air is permitted to cool within the hollow fins based on conduction, convection, and/or radiation).
