Abstract
An electronic device cooler for cooling an exothermic member arranged in a case, comprises: an air compressor for adiabatically compressing the air in the case; a heat pipe for discharging the heat of the air, which is compressed to have an elevated temperature by the air compressor, to the outside of the case; and an expansion turbine for adiabatically expanding the pressurized air, which is derived of its heat by the heat pipe, to cool it.
