Abstract
Cooling systems and vehicles containing cooling systems are disclosed. A cooling system may include an evaporator, a condenser positioned downstream from the evaporator, a pump positioned downstream from the condenser, and a two phase cooler positioned downstream from the pump and in series upstream from the evaporator. The two phase cooler may receive thermal energy from a heat generating device to preheat a working fluid and directs the preheated working fluid to the evaporator.
