Abstract
A cold plate device and method for cooling electronic systems is provided including a generally flat thermally conductive body having a cooling channel within the thermally conductive body. A first cooling fluid travels through the cooling channel to remove heat from the conductive body. A vapor compression cycle system is coupled to the thermally conductive body such that the first cooling fluid removes heat from a second cooling fluid in a portion of the vapor compression cycle system.
