Detailed Description
With the vigorous development of the electronic heat dissipation industry, the iteration update of electronic products is carried out, the power and the heat flux density of a chip are continuously increased, the heat-relieving power of a single heat pipe is difficult to be improved, more heat pipes are required to be added for relieving heat, so that the weight of the heat radiator is increased, the cost is increased, and the layout is difficult; the system internal layout is also becoming more complex, the distance between the chip and the fan increases, resulting in a long-distance heat transfer of the heat pipe and a deterioration in heat transfer efficiency. Aiming at the problems of the traditional heat pipe module, the loop heat pipe has the advantages of extremely high heat transfer performance, excellent isothermal property and long-distance heat transfer, is well utilized in the heat dissipation scenes, and is suitable for scenes with high power and chip layout and long distance between fans. With the development of the electronic industry, a host has a plurality of heat sources inside, and a loop heat pipe for heat dissipation of multiple heat sources necessarily has a trend.
However, the current loop heat pipe heat dissipation device generally consists of an evaporation cavity, a liquid storage cavity, a condensation cavity and an annular pipeline. The working principle is that when the heat source works, heat generated by the heat source is transferred to the evaporation cavity, liquid medium absorbs the heat in the evaporation cavity to generate phase change evaporation, generated vapor enters the condensation cavity through the annular pipeline, the vapor is cooled and condensed into liquid, the liquid flows back to the liquid storage cavity along the annular pipeline, and the liquid in the liquid storage cavity flows back to the evaporation cavity, so that the complete heat exchange cycle of liquid-gas-liquid is completed.
The long-term practice of the inventor finds that the current loop heat pipe heat dissipation device mainly dissipates heat for a single heat source, and when the product close to multiple heat sources is faced, even if a larger evaporation cavity is arranged, the heat dissipation at the heat sources is affected due to uneven local heating, and the heat dissipation effect is poor. And correspondingly arranging a plurality of loop heat pipe radiating devices increases the cost.
In summary, how to effectively solve the problem of poor heat dissipation effect of the multi-heat source product is a problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.
In order to improve the above problems, the present invention provides a loop heat pipe heat dissipation element, a device and an electronic apparatus. The invention is described below in connection with specific embodiments.
The embodiment of the invention discloses a loop heat pipe heat dissipation device which can solve the problem that the existing loop heat pipe heat dissipation device is poor in heat dissipation effect for multi-heat source products.
The following description of the embodiments of the present invention will be made clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is apparent that the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
Referring to fig. 1-3, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a heat dissipation device for loop heat pipes in an open state of a cover according to an embodiment of the present invention; fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a loop heat pipe heat dissipating device with multiple liquid storage cavities according to an embodiment of the present invention; fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a loop heat pipe heat dissipating device with evaporation chambers disposed on three sides of a liquid storage chamber according to an embodiment of the present invention.
In one embodiment, the present embodiment provides a loop heat pipe heat dissipation device for use with various heat dissipation devices as needed. Specifically, the loop heat pipe heat dissipation device comprises a condenser 3 and a loop heat pipe heat dissipation element, wherein the loop heat pipe heat dissipation element comprises an evaporation cavity 1 and a liquid storage cavity 2, namely the loop heat pipe heat dissipation device mainly comprises the evaporation cavity 1, the liquid storage cavity 2 and the condenser 3.
In the loop heat pipe heat dissipation device provided in this embodiment, the condenser 3 is provided with the condensation channel 4, and the loop heat pipe heat dissipation element includes the evaporation cavity 1 and the liquid storage cavity 2, that is, the loop heat pipe heat dissipation element is provided with the evaporation cavity 1 and the liquid storage cavity 2 respectively, and the condensation channel 4 is communicated with the liquid storage cavity 2 and the evaporation cavity 1 respectively. Specifically, the condensation channel 4 includes a first condensation channel and a second condensation channel that are communicated, the first condensation channel is communicated with the liquid storage cavity 2, and the second condensation channel is communicated with the evaporation cavity 1.
The liquid storage cavity 2 is connected with a plurality of evaporation cavities 1, namely the loop heat pipe radiating element is provided with a plurality of evaporation cavities 1, and the liquid storage cavities 2 are respectively connected with each evaporation cavity 1 through a gas-liquid separation wall 5. That is, the plurality of evaporation chambers 1 can all introduce liquid (i.e. liquid working medium) from the liquid storage chamber 2, the liquid enters the evaporation chambers 1, absorbs heat and evaporates to generate gas, the gas flows out from the gas outlet of the evaporation chambers 1 and then enters the condensation channel 4 of the condenser 3, and the heat is dissipated in the condenser 3, condensed and converted (i.e. condensed and liquefied) into liquid, and then flows back to the liquid storage chamber 2 to form circulation. It will be understood that, referring to fig. 1-3, the plurality of evaporation chambers 1 refers to two or more evaporation chambers 1, that is, the loop heat pipe heat dissipation device provided by the embodiment of the invention is at least provided with two evaporation chambers 1.
The gas-liquid separation wall 5 is located between the evaporation cavity 1 and the liquid storage cavity 2 to perform gas-liquid separation, so that liquid can enter the evaporation cavity 1 from the liquid storage cavity 2, and gas cannot flow into the liquid storage cavity 2 from the evaporation cavity 1, so that gas-liquid mixing is not easy to form in the liquid storage cavity 2, and liquid backflow capacity is not easy to influence. The main structure of the gas-liquid separation wall 5 is a capillary structure, which is transversely blocked in a channel between the evaporation cavity 1 and the liquid storage cavity 2, and can enable liquid to flow due to capillary suction.
The liquid storage cavity 2 can store (accommodate) liquid, i.e. the liquid can be led in from the condensation channel 4 of the condenser 3 for collection and storage, i.e. the liquid storage cavity 2 is configured to accommodate liquid working medium. The evaporation chamber 1 is generally of a layered structure, the heated side (or the heat absorbing side) has a layer of capillary structure, and the capillary structure of the evaporation chamber 1 introduces liquid from the liquid storage chamber 2 through the capillary structure of the gas-liquid separation wall 5. The other side of the evaporating cavity 1 is a cavity, so that the evaporated gas can flow conveniently, and then intensively flows out from the air outlet to enter the condensing channel 4 of the condenser 3. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the evaporation chamber 1 may be entirely filled with capillary structure, may be partially hollow, partially have capillary structure, or may be hollow without capillary structure.
The air outlets of the evaporation chambers 1 are respectively communicated with the inlets of the corresponding second condensation channels of the corresponding condensers 3, so that the heat dissipation of the evaporation chambers 1 through the second condensation channels of the condensers 3 is realized, namely, the loop heat pipe heat dissipation device provided by the embodiment of the invention is provided with a plurality of second condensation channels so as to respectively correspond to the air outlets of different evaporation chambers 1. Specifically, the condenser 3 is provided with a first condensation channel and a second condensation channel, at least two evaporation cavities 1 respectively dissipate heat through different second condensation channels 4, and the heat dissipation can be performed through different second condensation channels of the same condenser 3, or through different condensers 3, and then through the second condensation channels of different condensation channels 4, and specific corresponding selection can be performed as required.
While the first condensation channel outlet of the condensation channel 4 is in communication with the liquid storage chamber 2. It should be noted that, because of the loop arrangement, for the evaporating chamber 1 that obtains the liquid working medium (i.e., the liquid phase change working medium) from a certain liquid storage chamber 2, the second condensing channel that is in communication with the condensing channel 4 of the evaporating chamber 1 is at least in direct or indirect communication with the liquid storage chamber 2, thereby completing the cycle. In general, for a loop heat pipe radiator provided with only a single liquid storage chamber 2, then the outlet of each first condensation channel is connected to open the liquid storage chamber 2. If a plurality of liquid storage cavities 2 are provided, then the evaporating cavity 1 for obtaining the liquid working medium from a certain liquid storage cavity 2 needs to be led back to the liquid storage cavity 2 through the corresponding first condensation channel.
It should be noted that, the liquid storage cavity 2 is connected between the plurality of evaporation cavities 1, so that the plurality of evaporation cavities 1 can share the liquid in one liquid storage cavity 2, and the size and shape of the liquid storage cavity 2 can be correspondingly set according to actual needs without too much limitation. The different evaporation chambers 1 need to correspond to different heat sources or correspond to different parts of one heat source, so that the position relationship between the different evaporation chambers 1 is generally limited by the installation positions of the heat sources, and therefore, the distance between the liquid storage chambers 2 corresponding to the gas-liquid separation walls 5 of the different evaporation chambers 1 can be limited by the installation objects, if the two heat sources are far away, the required liquid storage chambers 2 can be relatively large, and if the liquid storage chambers 2 are too large or cannot control the volume, the scheme is uncomfortable. For a plurality of relatively close heat sources, for example, two heat sources of a GPU (graphics processor) and a CPU (graphics processor) on an electronic device have a stable positional relationship, then the size of the liquid storage chamber 2 may be in a relatively proper state; for example, a plurality of memory modules generally have a stable position relationship, and the distance between the memory modules is generally relatively close.
It can be appreciated that the loop heat pipe heat dissipation element provided in this embodiment includes:
a liquid storage cavity 2, wherein the liquid storage cavity 2 is configured to accommodate liquid working medium, and the liquid storage cavity 2 can be used for communicating with a condensation channel 4 of the condenser 3 so as to introduce the liquid working medium from the condensation channel 4;
the evaporation cavities 1, at least one liquid storage cavity 2 and a plurality of evaporation cavities 1 are connected through a gas-liquid separation wall 5 so as to introduce liquid working media from the liquid storage cavities 2, and the evaporation cavities 1 can also be used for being communicated with a condensation channel 4;
wherein: after the liquid working medium in the evaporation cavity 1 absorbs heat from a heat source and is vaporized into gas, the gas can flow into the condensation channel 4 for condensation;
further, the condensation channel 4 comprises a first condensation channel and a second condensation channel which are communicated, wherein the first condensation channel can be used for being communicated with the liquid storage cavity 2, the second condensation channel can be used for being communicated with the evaporation cavities 1, and at least two evaporation cavities 1 can be respectively communicated with different second condensation channels; at least one of the first condensation channel and the second condensation channel can be used for heat dissipation, and the second condensation channel can be used for heat dissipation in general, but the first condensation channel is not required to be used for heat dissipation in general.
So set up, evaporation chamber 1 can follow liquid storage chamber 2 leading-in liquid working medium, and after the heat transfer of heat source was to evaporation chamber 1, liquid working medium in the evaporation chamber 1 absorbed the heat, can take place phase transition evaporation, and liquid working medium evaporates and produces gas, and the gas that evaporates into gas after the liquid working medium absorbed the heat promptly, and the gas that produces gets into condensing channel 4, and gas can release heat, then the condensation liquefaction becomes liquid, and liquid flows back to liquid storage chamber 2 through condensing channel 4 again, can realize the heat transfer circulation.
In the above-mentioned loop heat pipe heat dissipation element, when being applied to a product with a plurality of heat sources at a proper distance, the plurality of evaporation chambers 1 around the liquid storage chamber 2 are in heat conduction contact with the corresponding heat sources, respectively, and the liquid storage chamber 2 is located between the plurality of evaporation chambers 1, i.e. between the plurality of heat sources, so as to supply liquid working medium to the plurality of evaporation chambers 1 at the same time. The evaporation cavity absorbs heat of a heat source, liquid in the evaporation cavity absorbs heat to evaporate, gas generated by evaporation enters the condensation channel 4 to be cooled to form liquid, and then the liquid flows back to the liquid storage cavity 2 to realize circulation. In the loop heat pipe radiating element, the plurality of evaporating cavities 1 can be arranged around the liquid storage cavity 2, so that the plurality of evaporating cavities 1 can share the liquid working medium in the same liquid storage cavity 2, and the liquid storage cavity can be automatically and better proportioned according to the heating time and the heating quantity of a plurality of heat sources, if one heat source radiates too much heat, more liquid can be led in from the liquid storage cavity 2 by the evaporating cavity 1 corresponding to the heat source, so that the radiating requirement of the plurality of heat sources can be met, and the radiating effect is improved. Meanwhile, as different evaporating cavities 1 are connected with different second condensing channels, the evaporating cavities 1 with different heating capacities can be effectively prevented from being affected by each other in pressure, and further, distinguishing heat dissipation is avoided, and the heat dissipation effect is better. In summary, the heat dissipation element of the loop heat pipe can effectively solve the problem that the heat dissipation effect of the conventional heat dissipation device of the loop heat pipe is poor for multi-heat source products.
It can be understood that the loop heat pipe heat dissipation device provided in this embodiment includes a condenser 3 and a loop heat pipe heat dissipation element as described in any one of the above, where the condenser 3 is provided with a condensation channel 4;
wherein:
the condensation channel 4 comprises a first condensation channel and a second condensation channel which are communicated, the first condensation channel is communicated with the liquid storage cavity 2 of the loop heat pipe radiating element, the second condensation channel is communicated with the evaporation cavity 1 of the loop heat pipe radiating element, and at least two evaporation cavities 1 are respectively communicated with different second condensation channels. The loop heat pipe radiating element has the technical effects, so the loop heat pipe radiating device with the loop heat pipe radiating element has the corresponding technical effects.
In some embodiments, the capillary structure in the evaporation cavity 1 and the gas-liquid separation wall 5 may be integrally sintered and formed, where the gas-liquid separation wall 5 is also generally a capillary structure, so as to facilitate manufacturing. And the capillary structure in the evaporation cavity 1 is arranged below the gas-liquid separation wall 5, so that the non-heated side of the evaporation cavity 1 has enough cavities to conveniently contain the gas generated by evaporation. The heated side of the evaporation chamber 1 may be laid flat with a capillary structure, or may be partially laid flat with the capillary structure. Specifically, it can be set as required.

It should be noted that, where the cover 7 covers the notch of the groove-shaped member 6, the cover 7 may be made as a plate, cover the notch, or be embedded into the notch. The cover member 7 may be concave, and the cavity formed by the concave is correspondingly separated into the evaporation cavity 1 and the liquid storage cavity 2 by the gas-liquid separation wall 5.
In some embodiments, the evaporation chamber 1 and the liquid storage chamber 2 may be larger than the external air pressure in some application states and smaller than the external air pressure in some application states because the internal air pressure may be greatly different in different temperature stages. Specifically, the evaporation chamber 1 and the liquid storage chamber 2 can be provided with upright posts therein so as to be connected to the cover member 7 and supported in the tank chamber.
In some embodiments, as described above, at least two of the evaporation chambers 1 respectively dissipate heat through different second condensation channels of the condensation channels 4 of the condenser 3, that is, at least two of the evaporation chambers 1 respectively dissipate heat through different second condensation channels of the same condenser 3, and/or the second condensation channels of the condensation channels 4 corresponding to at least two of the evaporation chambers 1 respectively correspond to different condensers 3.

While the gas formed in relation to the evaporation chamber 1 in the middle: in one embodiment, the liquid can be split to flow into different condensation channels 4 respectively, and then be led into the liquid storage cavities 2 on two sides respectively through different first condensation channels; in another embodiment, the liquid can be liquefied into liquid through the second condensation channel and then is further separated into liquid storage cavities 2 on two sides; in yet another embodiment, the second condensation channels that are communicated with the evaporation chamber 1 in the middle part may be split in the middle part of the condensation path, that is, after the first stage of second condensation channels is first cooled, liquefaction is allowed, but at least not completely liquefied, and then split so as to flow into different first condensation channels respectively to flow into the liquid storage chambers 2 on two sides, specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the second condensation channels that are communicated with the evaporation chamber 1 in the middle part penetrate from one side of the heat dissipation body of the condenser 3, penetrate from the other side, then separate so as to flow into two different first condensation channels respectively, and the two first condensation channels penetrate through the heat dissipation body of the condenser 3 again, and then are respectively communicated into the liquid storage chambers 2 on two sides of the middle evaporation chamber 1.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1, only two evaporation chambers 1 are provided, the middle parts of the two evaporation chambers 1 are provided with liquid storage chambers 2, one side of the two evaporation chambers 1 is provided with a condenser 3, the two evaporation chambers 1 are respectively communicated with a second condensation channel, and after the two second condensation channels pass through the main body of the condenser 3 in a reciprocating manner, the two second condensation channels flow into the liquid storage chambers 2 after converging at a position close to the liquid storage chambers 2. Of course, in other embodiments, the two second condensation channels may not merge, but flow to the same liquid storage chamber 2.
In some embodiments, when there are multiple evaporation chambers 1, there will be a distribution area of part of the evaporation chambers 1 that is smaller than the distribution area of other evaporation chambers 1 to accommodate smaller area heat sources. Specifically, at least one of the plurality of evaporation chambers 1 may be a first evaporation chamber, and the other may be a second evaporation chamber having a smaller distribution area than the first evaporation chamber, and the second condensation passage cooling path through which the first evaporation chamber communicates may be shorter than the second condensation passage cooling path through which the second evaporation chamber communicates.
As shown in fig. 3, a first evaporation chamber with a larger area is arranged on the left side and the right side of the liquid storage chamber 2, and a second evaporation chamber with a smaller area is arranged below the liquid storage chamber 2, wherein a second condensation channel communicated with the second evaporation chamber 1 penetrates into the condenser 3 main body from one side of the condenser 3 main body far away from the liquid storage chamber 2, and then penetrates out from one side close to the liquid storage chamber 2 so as to be communicated with the liquid storage chamber 2. And a second condensation channel, in which the first evaporation chamber 1 is communicated, penetrates into the condenser 3 main body from the side of the condenser 3 main body close to the liquid storage chamber 2, and penetrates into the condenser 3 main body again after penetrating out from the side far from the liquid storage chamber 2, and then penetrates out of the condenser 3 main body from the side close to the liquid storage chamber 2, whereby it can be seen that the cooling path of the condensation channel 4 communicating with the first evaporation chamber 1 is shorter than that of the condensation channel 4 of the second evaporation chamber 1.
