Abstract
A method of thermally conditioning a physical object, includes guiding a two-phase cooling medium through a cooling duct of the physical object, wherein the guiding includes: guiding the two-phase cooling medium in a liquid phase via a pre-heating duct of the physical object from a supply side of the physical object at least partly towards a discharging side of the physical object, the two-phase cooling medium being pre-heated in the pre-heating duct; guiding the two-phase cooling medium from the pre-heating duct to a phase transitioning duct of the physical object, the two-phase cooling medium at least partly transitioning from the liquid phase towards a gas phase in the phase transitioning duct; guiding the two-phase cooling medium from the phase transitioning duct to a discharging duct of the physical object; and discharging at the discharging side the two-phase cooling medium from the discharging duct.
