- the control electrode 5 may be embedded in the printed circuit board 30 as shown in FIG. 17 . Since the printed circuit board 30 can form, for example, four wiring layers layer by layer, it is possible to easily form the control electrodes 5 inside the printed circuit board 30 . Incidentally, the control electrode 5 may be embedded in the dielectric 11 . In this case, a method of fixing the control electrode 5 and solidifying it by pouring a liquid dielectric or a method of inserting the control electrode 5 into the dielectric can be used.

Abstract
Description
以下、本発明を適用した第1実施形態について図面を参照して説明する。図面の記載において同一部分には同一符号を付して、詳細な説明は省略する。
図1は、本実施形態に係る冷却装置の構成を示す斜視図、図2は上面図、図3は図2のA−A線における断面図である。図1~3に示すように、冷却装置1は、プラズマアクチュエータ3と、制御電極(第3電極)5と、電子部品7を備えている。
本実施形態に係る冷却装置1の変形例として、図8に示すように、スイッチ9をさらに備えていてもよい。スイッチ9は、制御電極5に印加される制御電圧をオンオフする。スイッチ9で制御電圧をオンオフすることにより、必要なときだけ誘起流を制御電極5の方向に引き付けて電子部品7を冷却するように制御することができる。
以上、詳細に説明したように、本実施形態に係る冷却装置1では、誘起流が流れていく方向に電子部品7と制御電極5を配置し、制御電極5に印加される電圧を、上部電極13との間に誘起流を引き付けることのできる電位差を生じさせる電圧としている。これにより、誘起流を制御電極5の方向に引き付けることができるので、電子部品7に効率的に風を当てることができる。したがって、冷却装置1の冷却性能を向上させることができる。
以下、本発明を適用した第2実施形態について図面を参照して説明する。図面の記載において同一部分には同一符号を付して、詳細な説明は省略する。
以上、詳細に説明したように、本実施形態に係る冷却装置1では、上部電極13の電圧の時間変化が正勾配のときには、制御電極5を接地するか、または負の電圧を印加し、上部電極13の電圧の時間変化が負勾配のときには、制御電極5に正の電圧を印加する。これにより、プラズマから発生するイオンを引き付けることができるので、誘起流を引き付けるように制御することができる。したがって、電子部品7に効率的に風を当てることができ、冷却装置1の冷却性能を向上させることができる。
以下、本発明を適用した第3実施形態について図面を参照して説明する。図面の記載において同一部分には同一符号を付して、詳細な説明は省略する。
本実施形態に係る冷却装置1の変形例として、図17に示すように、制御電極5が、プリント基板30に埋め込まれていてもよい。プリント基板30は、基板の中に例えば4層の配線層をレイヤー毎に形成できるので、制御電極5をプリント基板30の内部に形成することは容易に可能である。尚、制御電極5は、誘電体11に埋め込まれていてもよい。この場合、制御電極5を固定して液状の誘電体を流して固める方法や制御電極5を誘電体に差し込む工法を用いることができる。
以上、詳細に説明したように、本実施形態に係る冷却装置1では、誘電体をプリント基板30で構成したので、各電極を高精度に形成することができ、耐電圧を容易に確保することができる。したがって、冷却装置1の信頼性を確保できるとともに、量産性を向上させることができる。
