Abstract

Both dynamic and static cooling capability for cooling electronic or electrical components on a circuit board is achieved in a heat exchanger that includes a circuit board on which the components to be cooled are mounted together with a coolant channel with a coolant inlet and a coolant outlet in heat exchange contact with the circuit board. The heat exchanger includes a container defining a coolant depot adjacent to and in heat exchange relation with the flow channel and adapted to contain a coolant to accept heat rejected by the components when coolant is not flowing in the coolant channel between the inlet and the outlet.
