Abstract

A high-efficiency electronic thermal management system and method providing a heat riser having stackable blocks of thermally conductive material that include an upper block and a lower block, wherein the lower block has a lower surface mounted in thermal communication with a heat source. The lower block having an inclined upper surface configured to be in thermal communication with a block directly above, having a complemental inclined surface. These blocks are elastically coupled. The upper block may slide along the lower block allowing for vertical and horizontal axial elastic adjustment while providing consistent pressure to both the heat source and a cooling source to provide for heat dispersion along a thermal pathway from the heating source through the lower block, upper block, and to a cold plate cooling source. The cold plate also has internal fins and flowing liquid for heat dispersion.
