A method of cooling a downhole tool. A first step involves providing a cooling chamber in the downhole tool. The cooling chamber is positioned in proximity to components to be cooled. A second step involves ports through defining walls of the downhole tool. The ports must be adapted to allow liquids from a well bore, in which the downhole tool is positioned, to communicate with the cooling chamber. A third step involves providing means to circulate liquids from the well bore in through the ports into the cooling chamber and out through the ports back into the well bore, such that the liquids in the cooling chamber are continually being replaced. A heat exchange takes place between the liquids in the cooling chamber and the components to be cooled. The liquids are continually being replaced dissipating heat into the well bore.

Méthode de refroidissement d'un outil de fond. Une première étape consiste à prévoir une chambre de refroidissement dans l'outil de fond. La chambre de refroidissement est placée à proximité des éléments devant être refroidis. Une seconde étape consiste en orifices traversant les parois de délimitation de l'outil de fond. Les lumières doivent être adaptées de façon à permettre à des liquides provenant des parois d'un puits, où est placé l'outil de fond, de communiquer avec la chambre de refroidissement. Une troisième étape consiste à prévoir des dispositifs pour faire circuler les liquides provenant des parois du puits dans la chambre de refroidissement en passant par lesdits orifices, et les ramener dans le puits par les mêmes orifices, de telle sorte que les liquides dans la chambre de refroidissement soient remplacés constamment. Il se produit un échange thermique entre les liquides dans la chambre de refroidissement et les éléments à refroidir. Les liquides sont remplacés constamment, ce qui dissipe la chaleur dans les parois du puits.
