Abstract

A liquid-cooled cold plate for removing heat from a heat-generating component is disclosed. The liquid-cooled cold plate includes a lower heat transfer plate with a flat component contact surface constructed to make thermal contact with the heat-generating component, and a plurality of parallel turbulator channels, holding a plurality of turbulators, the channels having walls that extend away from the component contact surface. The liquid-cooled cold plate also includes a lid forming a liquid tight seal with the lower heat transfer plate. The lid has an inlet end with an inlet port in fluid connection with an inlet channel manifold that allows for fluid communication between the plurality of parallel turbulator channels and the inlet port. The lid also has an outlet end with an outlet port in fluid connection with an outlet channel manifold that allows for fluid communication between the plurality of parallel turbulator channels and the outlet port.
