Abstract
This patent disclosure describes heat management and removal assemblies for electronic devices that generate heat during use. The disclosed assemblies are particularly useful for cooling insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). The disclosed assemblies provide a low-resistance parallel cooling circuit for efficiently delivering coolant to one or more electronic devices. The disclosed parallel cooling circuits and assembly designs reduce the pump power required to deliver coolant to one or more electronic devices.
