Abstract

A spray cooling system for efficiently thermally managing a single or multiple semiconductor chip package. The spray cooling system includes a heat exchanger unit having a pump unit and a reservoir, a coaxial tube fluidly connected to the heat exchanger unit, a coupler unit attached to the coaxial tube, and a spray module where the coupler unit is removably connected to the spray module. The heat exchanger unit has an air tolerant design that allows for the entry and release of air without interfering with the operation thereof.
