Product is Oasis (tm) two-phase cooling systems. We have not used

Convective cooling may prove difficult so you may want to consider a type
of conductive cooling. A couple of years ago I came across liquid heat
sinks being used in a design such as yours.
These were bags of a special liquid - (Flourinert I think) - from 3M Corp.
I don't have any product info. so I am not sure about its thermal
properties. The bags of liquid are sandwiched between boards and conduct
the heat away from any hot-spots.
This may seem a little off the wall, but it may be a solution depending on
your particular situation.
Hope this helps
