Abstract
A cooling system for blades of a high performance computer thermally couples blade electronics to the computer's liquid cooling system through one or more heat pipes, without requiring a liquid conduit on, or liquid coupling to, the blade. Moreover, illustrative embodiments allow a blade to be installed in a high performance computer and engage the cooling system without making a liquid connection, and to disengage from the cooling system and be removed from the high performance computer without breaking a liquid connection.
