Abstract

A heat exchange device that is coupled to an electronic device that includes an electronic component that generates heat, the heat exchange device includes: a first-channel through which a first-coolant that cools the electronic component flows; a heat-exchange-unit that performs heat exchange between the first-coolant and a second-coolant; a second-channel through which the second-coolant-flows; a first-coolant-detection-unit that detects leakage of the first-coolant from the first-channel; a collection-unit that collects the first-coolant that is leaked from the first-channel; a storage-unit that is provided in the first-channel and supplies the stored first-coolant to the first channel; a recovery-unit that is provided between the collection-unit and the storage-unit; and a control-unit that causes the recovery-unit to recover the first-coolant that is collected by the collection unit, into the storage-unit when the first-coolant-detection-unit detects leakage of the first-coolant.
