Abstract

An electronic apparatus comprises a heat-generating component, a main unit having a heat-receiving portion thermally connected to the heat-generating component, and a display unit supported by the main unit. The display unit incorporates a heat-radiating portion which radiates the heat of the heat-generating component. A circulating path connects the heat-receiving portion and the heat-radiating portion and circulates liquid coolant. The heat-radiating portion includes a first radiator and a second radiator. The radiators are connected in series in a direction in which the liquid coolant flows. The second radiator is located at the downstream of the liquid coolant, and is exposed outside the display unit.
