Abstract:
A thermal jacket is provided for reducing the rate of condensation of moisture during subambient operation of a cooled heat sink. The thermal jacket includes a bonding layer positioned in substantially surrounding and overlying relation to the cooled heat sink, at least one porous layer positioned in substantially surrounding and overlying relation to the bonding layer, a barrier layer positioned in substantially surrounding and overlying relation to the at least one porous layer; and a sealant layer positioned in substantially surrounding and overlying relation to the barrier layer. A method of forming the thermal jacket on the surface of the heat sink is also provided.
