| 20110277475 | POWER REGENERATION FOR AN INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEM - A power regeneration system for use with an information handling system is disclosed. The power regeneration system may include a thermosiphon in thermal communication with a heated component of the information handling system, a turbine, a condenser, and a fluid flow loop. The thermosiphon may be configured to convert a cooling fluid from a liquid to a gaseous state as the cooling fluid absorbs heat from the heated component of the information handling system. The turbine may be configured to extract energy from the cooling fluid in the gaseous state after it leaves the thermosiphon. The condenser may be configured to remove thermal energy from the cooling fluid after it leaves the turbine, the condenser fluid converting the cooling fluid from a gaseous state to a liquid state as thermal energy is removed. The fluid flow loop may connect the thermosiphon, the turbine, and the condenser in order so that the cooling fluid flows in a closed loop through the power regeneration system. | 11-17-2011 |
