A cold chassis and method of making a cold chassis for electronic modules featuring the fabrication of individual brazed cooling ribs each including microchannels along the length thereof and a peripheral flange. A set of adjacent ribs are secured together and assembled onto at least one face of a frame member. The rib flanges are sealed (e.g., friction stir welded) with respect to the frame member.

1. A cold chassis comprising: a frame member including multiple patterned adjacent recesses, each recess having a substantially planar portion;multiple cooling ribs secured to the frame member, each cooling rib including a peripheral flange and a substantially planar surface, the peripheral flange extending around a circumference of the cooling rib, a surface of the peripheral flange forming part of the substantially planar surface, each cooling rib at least partially disposed in an associated one of the recesses such that the substantially planar surface of the cooling rib contacts the substantially planar portion of the associated recess along at least a majority of a length of the cooling rib; anda seal securing the peripheral flange of each cooling rib in the associated recess;wherein each recess also has first and second ends opposite each other, each end comprising a peripheral ledge; andwherein a first portion of the peripheral flange of each cooling rib is configured to sit on the peripheral ledge of the first end of the associated recess and a second portion of the peripheral flange of each cooling rib is configured to sit on the peripheral ledge of the second end of the associated recess. 2. The cold chassis of claim 1, wherein the seal is a friction stir weld. 3. The cold chassis of claim 1, wherein each cooling rib further includes a plurality of microchannels that extend internally along a majority of the length of the cooling rib. 4. The cold chassis of claim 1, wherein the frame member further includes a proximal supply header and a distal return header. 5. The cold chassis of claim 4, wherein the headers are depressions in a face of the frame member. 6. The cold chassis of claim 4, wherein each cooling rib further includes: a proximal inlet port in the substantially planar surface, the proximal inlet port in fluid communication with the supply header; anda distal outlet port in the substantially planar surface, the distal outlet port in fluid communication with the return header. 7. The cold chassis of claim 6, further including: at least one supply port in fluid communication with the supply header; andat least one return port in fluid communication with the return header. 8. The cold chassis of claim 7, wherein the cold chassis is configured to flow a phase change coolant through the at least one supply port into the supply header and into the inlet ports of the cooling ribs, through the cooling ribs to the outlet ports thereof, into the return header, and then through the at least one return port. 9. A cold chassis comprising: a frame member comprising multiple recesses in a face of the frame member, each recess having a substantially planar portion; andmultiple cooling ribs, each cooling rib having a substantially planar surface and a peripheral flange extending around a circumference of the cooling rib, a surface of the peripheral flange forming part of the substantially planar surface, the peripheral flange at least partially inserted into an associated one of the recesses and placed in thermal contact with the frame member such that the substantially planar surface of the cooling rib contacts the substantially planar portion of the associated recess along at least a majority of a length of the cooling rib;wherein each recess also has first and second ends opposite each other, each end comprising a peripheral ledge; andwherein a first portion of the peripheral flange of each cooling rib is configured to sit on the peripheral ledge of the first end of the associated recess and a second portion of the peripheral flange of each cooling rib is configured to sit on the peripheral ledge of the second end of the associated recess. 10. The cold chassis of claim 9, wherein the peripheral flange of each cooling rib is sealed to the frame member. 11. The cold chassis of claim 9, wherein the frame member further comprises a supply header and a return header in the face of the frame member, each header located between the opposite ends of the recesses such that the recesses extend through the each header. 12. The cold chassis of claim 11, wherein each cooling rib further comprises: an inlet port in fluid communication with the supply header; andan outlet port in fluid communication with the return header. 13. The cold chassis of claim 11, further comprising: at least one supply port in fluid communication with the supply header; andat least one return port in fluid communication with the return header. 14. The cold chassis of claim 9, wherein each cooling rib further comprises a plurality of microchannels that extend internally along a majority of the length of the cooling rib. 15. A cold chassis comprising: a frame member comprising: multiple recesses in a face of the frame member, each recess having a substantially planar portion, first and second ends of each recess opposite each other, each of the first and second ends comprising a peripheral ledges in a same plane as the substantially planar portion; anda supply header and a return header in the face of the frame member, each header located between opposite ends of the recesses such that the recesses extend through the each header; andmultiple cooling ribs in thermal contact with the frame member, each cooling rib comprising: a substantially planar surface;a peripheral flange extending around a circumference of the cooling rib, a surface of the peripheral flange forming part of the substantially planar surface, the peripheral flange at least partially inserted into an associated one of the recesses and sitting on the peripheral ledges of the associated recess such that the substantially planar surface of the cooling rib contacts the substantially planar portion of the associated recess along at least a majority of a length of the cooling rib, wherein a first portion of the peripheral flange of the cooling rib is configured to sit on the peripheral ledge of the first end of the associated recess and a second portion of the peripheral flange of the cooling rib is configured to sit on the peripheral ledge of the second end of the associated recess;an inlet port in fluid communication with the supply header; andan outlet port in fluid communication with the return header. 16. The cold chassis of claim 15, wherein the peripheral flange of each cooling rib is sealed to the frame member. 17. The cold chassis of claim 16, wherein a seal between the peripheral flange of each cooling rib and the frame member is a friction stir weld. 18. The cold chassis of claim 15, wherein the cooling ribs are connected to each other. 19. The cold chassis of claim 15, wherein the recesses are adjacent to one another and substantially parallel with one another in the face of the frame member. 20. The cold chassis of claim 15, wherein each cooling rib further comprises a plurality of microchannels that extend internally along a majority of the length of the cooling rib.
