More Information
Summary:A computer system is described having a refrigeration cycle for a logic processor each utilizes first and second refrigeration cycles, each including a respective adsorber/desorber. Each adsorber/desorber is alternatingly cooled and heated. A liquid is adsorbed into the adsorber/desorber when being cooled and desorbed when the adsorber/desorber is heated. When the liquid is desorbed from the adsorber/desorber, and a checkvalve is closed, a pressure of the liquid increases. The adsorber/desorber together with the checkvalve act as a compressor in the respective refrigeration cycle. Heating and cooling is alternated so that one adsorber/desorber always adsorbs liquid while the other adsorber/desorber desorbes liquid. Thermal swings of the logic processor are thereby avoided.
