The invention provides an ebullition cooling device 1 for a heat
generating component B which device comprises a boiling unit 2 for
boiling a refrigerant A contained therein with the heat generated by the
heat generating component B as attached to an outer surface of the unit,
a condensing unit 3 disposed above the boiling unit 2 for condensing a
refrigerant vapor A1 flowing thereinto from the boiling unit 2 by heat
exchange with an external fluid C, and a communication pipe 4
interconnecting the units 2, 3 and having a refrigerant vapor channel 41
and a refrigerant condensate channel 42 therein. The cooling device 1 can
be designed with greater freedom, and is therefore fully useful for
electronic devices which are compacted or higher in complexity, smaller
in the amount of refrigerant to be enclosed therein and outstanding in
heat dissipating performance.
