Abstract
An electronic and/or computer device of the computer server type includes: circuit boards and a power supply unit which provides electrical power to various elements of the electronic device. The power supply unit has a fluidtight enclosure, filled with dielectric fluid capable of collecting heat from various components of the power supply unit in order to release it to a heat exchange wall, and is removable. The device includes a two-phase heat transfer circuit with capillary pumped loop having an evaporator thermally coupled to the heat exchange wall of the power supply unit, and a condenser located at a distance from the power supply unit and thermally coupled to a general thermal collector, such that, when in the working position, the heat exchange zone is pressed against the evaporator.
