For some reason, I'm reminded of using mineral oil for computer cooling. As in, you just leave the entire thing submerged in mineral oil
There was as scene in Halt and Catch Fire with this technique. If I recall they where testing the hardware or software for a new 16MH CPU but it had not arrived yet so they overclocked a 8MH instead in the meanwhile.
