Abstract
Cooling systems include a cold sink having a number of heat load cooling paths and a heat load associated with each cooling path. An inlet is configured to supply a cooling fluid into the cold sink and an outlet is configured to receive the cooling fluid after passing through the plurality of heat load cooling paths of the cold sink. A pressure regulating element is arranged along each cooling path, each pressure regulating element arranged between the inlet and the heat load along each cooling path and configured to cause a pressure drop in the cooling fluid prior to passing the cooling fluid to each heat load. The pressure drop caused by each pressure regulating element is the same and is a pressure drop greater than a maximum pressure drop across each heat load of a system without such pressure regulating elements.
