Abstract
A method of removing heat from a heat generating component. A geometrically reoriented heat pipe is formed including an evaporator section and a condenser section geometrically reoriented relative to the evaporator section. The evaporator section is positioned proximate to the heat generating component. A thermoelectric element is positioned between the at least one heat generating component and the evaporator section. Heat is transferred, via the thermoelectric element, from the heat generating component to a heat transfer fluid contained within the evaporator section. The heated fluid migrates to the condenser section. The fluid is cooled within the condenser section and the fluid is returned to the evaporator section.
