Patent attributes
In one embodiment, a cooling module includes a base frame, a fluid supply channel disposed on the base frame to receive cooling fluid from an external cooling fluid source, a fluid return channel disposed on the base frame to return the cooling fluid, multiple cold plates disposed on the base frame, wherein the cold plates are to be attached to a plurality of data processing modules. The cooling module also includes multiple distribution channels to distribute the cooling fluid received from the fluid supply channel to the cold plates to exchange heat generated by the heat generating modules and to return the cooling fluid carrying the exchanged heat back to the external cooling fluid source via the fluid return channel. The base frame, the fluid supply and return channels, the fluid distribution channels, and the cold plates are integrated as a single integrated cooling unit.
