Electronic products have higher requirements on the uniformity and heat dissipation of temperature, the uneven distribution of temperature can lead to the uneven thermal deformation of electronic devices, and the electronic devices can be destroyed due to the overhigh temperature, so that efficient heat dissipation measures are the premise of ensuring the safe, stable and reliable work of the electronic devices. Under the background, the development of a novel efficient ultrathin heat pipe is urgently needed to solve the problem of local high heat flow heat dissipation of electronic devices in a limited space.
The ultrathin heat pipe is a novel heat pipe manufactured to adapt to the narrow heat dissipation space of the light and thin electronic equipment. The working principle of the heat conduction assembly is that the heat conduction assembly conducts heat by means of phase change of working media in the heat conduction assembly, has the excellent characteristics of high heat conductivity, excellent temperature uniformity and the like, and is wide in application. The heat pipe is composed of a pipe shell, a wick and a sealing head, wherein the wick is an important component. The stable and efficient work of the ultrathin heat pipe depends on the performance of a liquid absorption core of the ultrathin heat pipe, the liquid absorption core relates to key processes of liquid evaporation, absorption of condensed liquid, backflow of the condensed liquid and the like, and the liquid absorption core is used as the most key part of the heat pipe, and the heat transfer performance of the ultrathin heat pipe is directly influenced by the performance of the ultrathin heat pipe. At the evaporation section of the heat pipe, the working liquid in the pipe core is heated and evaporated, and heat is taken away, wherein the heat is latent heat of evaporation of the working liquid. The vapor flows from the vapor channel to the condensation section of the heat pipe, condenses into liquid, and releases latent heat. Under the capillary force of the wick, the liquid flows back to the evaporation section, thus completing a closed cycle, thereby transferring a large amount of heat from the heating section to the heat dissipation section.
The ultra-thin heat pipe plays an important role in future heat dissipation design due to the small volume and excellent heat dissipation performance. However, the design and development of the current high-performance ultrathin heat pipe are still in search, the current heat pipe has the defects of small vapor circulation space, weak capillary driving force and the like, and the performance of the heat pipe also has a huge improvement space.
