Systems for integrated pump and reservoir
According to some embodiments, systems for an integrated pump and reservoir may be provided. In some embodiments, a pump may comprise a housing defining an inlet to accept a fluid and an outlet to evacuate the fluid, an impeller disposed within the housing, wherein the impeller is to move the fluid toward the outlet, a motor to power the impeller, a reservoir hydraulically coupled to the inlet, and a cold plate disposed at least partially within the housing.
1. A system, comprising:
a pump comprising:
a housing defining an inlet to accept a fluid and an outlet to evacuate the fluid; and
an impeller disposed within the housing, wherein the impeller is to move the fluid toward the outlet;
a motor to power the impeller;
a reservoir hydraulically coupled to the inlet, wherein the reservoir comprises:
an upper annular surface and a lower annular surface, wherein the upper annular surface defines a first central circular void, wherein the lower annular surface defines a second central circular void, wherein the annular surfaces are coupled at extents of the annular surfaces such that a volume is defined there between, wherein the inlet extends through the first central circular void and the second central circular void and comprises at least one hydraulic path connecting the inlet and the volume of the reservoir, and wherein a radius of the second central circular void is greater than a radius of the first central circular void; and
a cold plate disposed at least partially within the housing.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the pump accepts the fluid from one of a plurality of heat exchangers.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the cold plate comprises a plurality of cold plates.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the reservoir is coupled to the housing.
5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the reservoir is removably coupled to the housing.
6. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
one or more seals coupled between the reservoir and the inlet, wherein the one or more seals are to substantially prevent the fluid from escaping the volume of the reservoir through the voids.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein cold plate comprises:
a first portion disposed within the housing; and
a second portion disposed outside of the housing.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the first portion of the cold plate is substantially circular in shape, and wherein a plurality of vanes of the impeller revolve around the center of the first portion of the cold plate.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the impeller defines a cavity in which the cold plate is disposed.
10. A system, comprising:
a pump comprising:
a housing defining an inlet to accept a fluid and an outlet to evacuate the fluid; and
an impeller disposed within the housing, wherein the impeller is to move the fluid toward the outlet;
a reservoir hydraulically coupled to the inlet, wherein the reservoir comprises:
an upper annular surface and a lower annular surface, wherein the upper annular surface defines a first central circular void, wherein the lower annular surface defines a second central circular void, wherein the annular surfaces are coupled at extents of the annular surfaces such that a volume is defined there between, wherein the inlet extends through the first central circular void and the second central circular void and comprises at least one hydraulic path connecting the inlet and the volume of the reservoir, and wherein a radius of the second central circular void is greater than a radius of the first central circular void; and
a motor to power the impeller, wherein the motor comprises a rotor and at least two magnets disposed within the housing and at least two electromagnetic coils disposed outside of the housing.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the impeller is disposed on at least one portion of the rotor.
12. The system of claim 10 , further comprising:
a cold plate disposed at least partially within the housing.
13. A system, comprising:
a heat exchanger;
a pump comprising:
a housing defining an inlet to accept a fluid from the heat exchanger and an outlet to evacuate the fluid to the heat exchanger; and
an impeller disposed within the housing, wherein the impeller is to move the fluid toward the outlet;
a motor to power the impeller;
a reservoir hydraulically coupled to the inlet, wherein the reservoir comprises:
an upper annular surface and a lower annular surface, wherein the upper annular surface defines a first central circular void, wherein the lower annular surface defines a second central circular void, wherein the annular surfaces are coupled at extents of the annular surfaces such that a volume is defined there between, wherein the inlet extends through the first central circular void and the second central circular void and comprises at least one hydraulic path connecting the inlet and the volume of the reservoir, and wherein a radius of the second central circular void is greater than a radius of the first central circular void; and
a cold plate disposed at least partially within the housing;
a processor coupled to the cold plate; and
a double data rate memory coupled to the processor.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the motor comprises a rotor and at least two magnets disposed within the housing and at least two electromagnetic coils disposed outside of the housing.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the impeller is disposed on at least one portion of the rotor.
16. The system of claim 13 , wherein the reservoir is removably coupled to the housing.
