Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de régulation de la température d'un dispositif, le système comprenant : un circuit de fluide actif (10) dans lequel circule un fluide actif ; et un circuit de fluide frigorigène (22) dans lequel circule un fluide frigorigène. Le circuit de fluide actif constitue un tube caloporteur du type thermosiphon. Le circuit de fluide frigorigène constitue un cycle frigorifique. Le circuit de fluide actif comporte un évaporateur (12) et un condenseur (15). Le fluide actif est évaporé dans l'évaporateur, en raison de l'absorption de la chaleur émanant du dispositif (BP). Dans le condenseur, le fluide actif évaporé par l'évaporateur est refroidi et condensé en raison d'un échange de chaleur entre le condenseur et le fluide frigorigène dans le circuit de fluide frigorigène. Le fluide actif dans le circuit de fluide actif est un agent caloporteur du même type que le fluide frigorigène dans le circuit de fluide frigorigène.
