Abstract
The present disclosure describes thermal management devices. In one example, a thermal management device can include a processing unit, a thermal grease layer directly contacting the processing unit, and a heat pipe. The heat pipe can include a heat pipe interior volume having a working fluid disposed therein, a first exterior surface directly contacting the thermal grease layer, a second exterior surface opposite from the first exterior surface, and side exterior surfaces connecting the first exterior surface and the second exterior surface. The thermal management device can also include a device cover spaced from the second exterior surface of the heat pipe by a distance from greater than 1 mm to about 5 mm, and a bracket having a clamping portion that holds the heat pipe by the side exterior surfaces of the heat pipe. The clamping portion does not extend past the first exterior surface of the heat pipe.
