  • Apple patents a liquid cooling system


    Apple has deposited another patent at the “United States Patent and Trademark Office”. This time, it’s a liquid cooling system for the MacBook line. Here’s an extract of the text that can be found on this patent:

    “The computational performance of electronic devices has increased significantly in recent years. This increased performance has been accompanied by an increase in power consumption and associated heat generation. Furthermore, this additional heat generation has made it harder to maintain acceptable internal and external operational temperatures in these devices.”

    The system requires the use of a high-density liquid cooling complex that runs through a tube system connected to a heat dissipator and allows for the complete elimination of fans. It wouldn’t be surprising to see the pratical application of this new system in the new MacBook generations.
