A fluid heat exchanger for cooling an electronic component having a housing for receiving heat from the electronic component in which the housing has a fluid inlet and an outlet at opposite ends of the housing. The cross-sectional area of the housing for conveying fluid from the inlet to the outlet decreases from the inlet to the outlet thereby reducing pressure drop without sacrificing thermal performance. The cross-sectional area may be decreased by tilting a top of the housing relative to a bottom, or providing a plurality of fins separated by channels in which the cross-sectional area of the channels decreases from the inlet to the outlet.

A fluid heat exchanger for cooling an electronic component comprising, a housing having a base for receiving heat from an electronic component and having first and second opposing ends, a fluid inlet at the first end and a fluid outlet at the second end, a plurality of spaced fins connected to the base and extending from the inlet to the outlet, said fins separated by fluid channels in which the cross-sectional area of the channels decreases from the inlet to the outlet, and wherein the cross-sectional area of the fins increases from the inlet to the outlet.
