A Device Array Backframe with Integral Manifolding for High Performance Liquid Cooling

The present invention generally relates to an array backframe with integral manifolding for high performance fluid cooling of devices. The integral manifolding of the array backframe is designed to perform three functions. First, the array backframe parallelizes the fluid paths to provide uniform, cool supply fluid to every device in the array. Second, the array backframe minimizes the parasitic heat losses between supply and exhaust by use of an isolation cavity. Third, the array backframe collapses hundreds of fluid lines into a single internal manifold to enhance modularity while also serving as a structural support member.
