Description

A kind of heat radiator for semiconductor part

Affiliated technical field

The utility model relates to the heat dissipation technology field of semiconductor device, particularly by the radiator of being made up of heat-conducting block, fin and fan.

Background technology

Power raising along with semiconductor power device, light emitting semiconductor device, the particularly increase of semiconductor integrated circuit number of transistors, and the increase of operating frequency, caloric value is also along with increase therebetween, and current computer CPU and GPU chip cooling problem have become the obstacle in the computer evolution.For a long time, the heat radiation of electronic device gets the brush-off, technology is in the original heat transfer conceptual phase always, last century 60 is to the seventies, the research of heat transfer technology is very perfect, as long as incite somebody to action achievement in research wherein, adopts correct method, introduce the heat dissipation technology of electronic device, just can obtain significant result.

Existing a kind of cpu chip aluminium radiator: an end face of cylinder is a heat-absorbent surface, and it is close on the radiating surface of chip, stretches out many fins around the side of cylinder, also be referred to as heronsbill, fan is at the other end of cylinder, heat-absorbent surface back to a side, fan and cylinder are coaxial; The heat that chip produces is by the radiating surface of chip and the heat-absorbent surface thermal contact conductance on the cylinder, pass to cylinder, heat mode with heat conduction in cylinder passes to cylindrical side, pass on the fin fans drive air, the fin of flowing through again, in the convective heat transfer mode heat is passed in the air, shed, cylinder only plays conductive force at this, thereby just is referred to as heat-conducting block.This structural advantages has: because fan and cylinder (heat-conducting block) are coaxial, the fans drive air, flow along cylindrical side and fin, reduce the existence in air flows dead band in the fin that fan electromotor causes effectively, conduct heat and have a strong impact on the fin inner air convection; Because fin and cylinder (heat-conducting block) are to adopt aluminium extruded system process forming, fin and heat-conducting block are one, have guaranteed the heat conduction between fin and the cylinder.But,, be subjected to the restriction of this manufacturing process because fin extrudes out, the thickness of fin is generally wanted more than the 0.5mm, though sheet is thick, helps fin efficiency and improves, but problem has: the aluminum consumption is many, cost increases, and importantly, fin thickness occupies too much ventilation area, be unfavorable for highly compactization, such as pitch of fins 1.5mm, sheet is thick to be 0.5mm, densification design like this, the thickness of fin just accounts for 1/3rd, be that ventilation area has only 2/3rds, like this, the air velocity of the fin of flowing through increases, air flow resistance is big, cause air mass flow to reduce, cause that heat dissipation capacity can not get effective raising, may also reduce.

This cpu heat that now is used for desktop computer, in order to improve heat dissipation capacity, have to increase overall dimensions, the radiator external diameter reaches 90mm, more than the fin pitch of fins 2mm, fin rib long (point length from the heat-conducting block to the fin) and fin rib width (heat-conducting block axial direction distance) reach 30mm, and purpose is to increase the fin gross area (area of dissipation), reaches the raising heat dissipation capacity.Rib is long to be increased, and fin efficiency reduces, and the fin rib width increases, and the height of heat-conducting block increases, and then the thermal conduction resistance in the heat-conducting block increases, and these all are unfavorable for improving heat dissipation capacity, and the aluminium consumption increases in addition, and promptly cost increases.Big like this radiator is the device that accounts for the main space size on the computer motherboard.

Now radiator is not considered from the aerodynamics aspect to optimize, strengthen and improve heat dissipation capacity in addition, only improve airflow pressure from increasing means such as fan diameter, thickness, flabellum rotating speed, improve heat dissipation capacity, thereby brought vibrations, noise, bearing life again, problems such as size is big take up space, the bulk that radiator is shared has been the obstacle that reduces in computer size, the compact design.

Summary of the invention

The utility model is to improve at above-mentioned radiator, adopts other fin forming technology, realizes reducing fin thickness, increases fin density, reaches the purpose that increases area of dissipation.Introduce the augmentation of heat transfer structure, optimize size, further reduce the size of dispelling the heat.Centrifugal fan or multistage axial flow formula fan by adopting high blast further improve heat dissipation capacity.

The technical solution of the utility model is: the main parts of radiator include: heat-conducting block, fin and fan, one smooth heat-absorbent surface is arranged on the heat-conducting block, be provided with fin around in the heat-conducting block side, fan be arranged on heat-absorbent surface back to a side, these structures are similar with the cpu heat that now is called as sun fancy.Of the present utility model being characterised in that: fin is to be welded on the heat-conducting block, or is embedded in heat-conducting block, or adopts glue bond on heat-conducting block, or has adopted the lock ring ring to be pressed against on the heat-conducting block; The thickness of fin is not more than 0.4mm, and the rib of fin long (fin root place is promptly by the heat-conducting block place, to the length at fin point place) is not more than 25mm, the rib width of fin (length of fin on the heat-conducting block axial direction); The average pitch of fins of fin is not more than 2.0mm.

According to thermal conduction study, fin efficiency is the function of mL, descend along with the increase of mL, be the functional relation that curve descends, mL is 1.0 o'clock, the fin efficiency decrease speed is the fastest, for straight rib (the utility model is related), this moment, fin efficiency was roughly 76%, and the value of getting mL when generally designing is not more than 1.0, wherein L is that rib is long, and the square root of the thickness of m and fin is inversely proportional to.If fin thickness reduces 4 times, the long L of rib reduces 2 times, and then fin efficiency is constant.Illustrate to reduce fin thickness, can reduce the fin material usage effectively, fin (aluminium) thickness in the air heat exchanger in the existing air-conditioning is reduced to below the 0.1mm.Existing product adopts aluminium extruded system technology, and the thick minimum of rib also has 0.5mm, and it is very meaningful to reduce rib thickness: reduce material, promptly reduce cost, reduce the thick shared circulation area of rib, the space of vacating can increase the fin number, has promptly increased area of dissipation.

The utility model adopts and weld, to bond, inlay and the mode of lock ring ring is arranged on fin on the heat-conducting block, and fin is to be arranged on the heat-conducting block after adopting the thin plate section bar to process, thereby the thickness of fin can attenuate, is not subjected to process technology limit.The thickness of fin is chosen and is not more than 0.4mm in the utility model, preferably chooses below the 0.2mm.The thickness of fin has reduced, and not low in order to guarantee fin efficiency, the rib length of fin can not be oversize, chooses rib in the utility model and fails to grow up in 25mm to rationally.Cause the convective heat transfer area to reduce if rib length shortens, indemnifying measure can be adopted to encrypt fin density and strengthen the heat-conducting block diameter increases the fin number.

Cross-ventilation in the utility model in the fin conducts heat and belongs to convective heat transfer in the narrow slit, according to thermal conduction study and aerodynamics, can learn: the gap size between cross-ventilation thermal transmission coefficient and the fin is inversely proportional to, that is to say that the gap is more little, be fin close more (radiator is compact more), the cross-ventilation thermal transmission coefficient is high more.Thereby reduce a pitch of fins, not only increased heat transfer area, but also improve the cross-ventilation thermal transmission coefficient, effect is to improve doublely, best clearance is below the 1mm, but considers the dust pollution problem in when operation, generally not gap design below 1mm, generally get the gap of 1.5mm, the gap between the fin in the air-conditioning in the heat exchanger is about 1.5mm.If the thick 0.4mm of fin, the gap between the fin is 1.5mm, and then a pitch of fins is 1.9mm.The utility model thinks that it is reasonable value that a fin pitch of fins is chosen 2.0mm following.Because a pitch of fins is not necessarily uniform, the one, the pitch of fins from the rib root to the rib point is not necessarily even, and the 2nd, the pitch of fins of each fin is not necessarily even, and a pitch of fins described herein is an average pitch of fins.

The utility model limits rib width and is not more than 25mm, is to consider from two aspects, and one, rib width is excessive, the flow through distance of fin of air, flow resistance is big, and the air capacity of flowing through reduces, and is unfavorable for improving heat loss through convection; Two, rib width strengthens, and then the height of heat-conducting block increases, and the heat conduction in the heat-conducting block is apart from increasing, and thermal conduction resistance increases, and is unfavorable for that heat radiation improves.To cpu heat, if rib width is 25mm, heat-conducting block just should have the 30mm height, and this has been very high value.If the convective heat transfer face is not enough, had better not select to improve rib width, should select to reduce a pitch of fins and increase the heat-conducting block diameter, increase the fin number.

Embodiment

Fig. 1 shows basic structure of the present utility model and forms, heat-absorbent surface is just below heat-conducting block 3, fan 1 is arranged on the upside of heat-conducting block 3, heat-absorbent surface back to a side, fin 2 is round heat-conducting block 3, be arranged on the side of heat-conducting block 3, heat-conducting block 3 exceeds (axially) fin 2, is to be convenient to circulation of air, the fin 2 of flowing through equably, because the electronic device that usually is cooled mostly is flat, or radiating surface is greater than the heat-absorbent surface (cross section) of heat-conducting block, and heat-conducting block exceeds the formed space of fin, has just become air flow passage, can eliminate the air flows dead band in the fin like this, these are similar with existing sun fancy cpu heat basic structure.

Fin 2 shown in Fig. 2, be called as ripple type structure fin, its feature structure is: banded fin material (generally adopting aluminium strip and copper strips) is processed to continuous corrugated, round heat-conducting block 3 can be the corrugated fin of a whole piece, the corrugated two gear grinding formings that adopt, shape simply the efficient height.Fin 2 among the figure is welding or is bonded on the heat-conducting block 3.

Fin 2 shown in Figure 3 is called as the laminated structure fin, its feature structure is: fin 2 is by tired the gathering into folds of the independent diffusing sheet of slices, fin root place flanging, this flanging is near heat-conducting block 3, heat on the heat-conducting block contacts with heat-conducting block by this flanging exactly and passes on the fin, and fin 2 is welding or is bonded on the heat-conducting block 3.Also having a flanging at fin root place shown in the figure--location flanging 4, as shown in Figure 4, the pitch of fins between fin root place's sheet and the sheet is exactly to determine by location flanging 4, and location flanging 4 is also arranged at the point place of fin 2.The location flanging 4 that fin root place and point place have been arranged just guarantees easily that fin root place is consistent with the pitch of fins at point place, and important advantage is: the efficient height of assembling fin.Also show a feature among the figure, towards a direction bending, compare with the straight rib shown in Fig. 2 by so crooked fin along circumferentially for fin 2, and advantage is: the difference of the pitch of fins at fin root place and point place reduces, can design and manufacture pitch of fins unanimity from root to the point place.No matter be the pitch of fins between each fin, still a pitch of fins from root to the point place, a pitch of fins is wanted uniformity as far as possible, and this is extremely important, can guarantee that like this air fin of flowing through is even, helps the integral heat sink face and is not fully exerted.If a root place pitch of fins is little, point place's pitch of fins is big, then flow through by the point place air capacity big, but because the thermal conduction resistance in the fin, the temperature at fin point place is lower than the temperature at root place, thereby heat radiation advantage in root place can not get effective utilization.A pitch of fins evenly also has an advantage to be: identical rib is long, identical fin number, and promptly total fin area is identical, and under the identical situation of heat-conducting block external diameter, the radiator external diameter is little, and is compacter.Thereby the utility model choose the ratio of a fin point place pitch of fins and a root place pitch of fins must not be greater than 1.5.

Fin 2 shown in Fig. 5,6 is embedded on the heat-conducting block 3, but the mosaic mode difference among two figure.Among Fig. 5, linearly radiation of fin 2, towards a direction bending, thereby fin root place is more even to the pitch of fins at point place along circumferentially for fin 2 among Fig. 6.Fin 2 shown in Fig. 7,8 adopts lock ring ring 5 to be pressed against on the heat-conducting block 3, and the lock ring ring 5 shown in the figure is the elasticity garter spring, also can adopt the garter spring of bolt reinforcing.

Adopt welding (adopting soldering usually), the fin setting is fixed on heat-conducting block, can effectively solve the contact heat resistance between fin and the heat-conducting block, employing is inlayed, bonding and lock ring ring technology, must guarantee has enough contacts area between fin and the heat-conducting block, contact is wanted closely, and it is high that the conductive coefficient of viscose glue is wanted.

In order further to improve the cross-ventilation heat of fin, reduce heat sink size, on fin, adopt and strengthen the convective heat transfer structure.Fig. 9,10 shows short rib shape augmentation of heat transfer structure, Fig. 9 is fork row formula short rib shape, Figure 10 is the venetian blind type short rib shape, their essential characteristic is: the surface that air is flowed through is die-cut into a section discontinuous surface, air whenever flow through one section (short rib), boundary layer on it all is in the The initial segment in boundary layer, makes whole heat convection surface make full use of the favourable characteristics that the boundary layer The initial segment is thin, thermal resistance is little, heat exchange coefficient is high.The width of short rib in 2.0 millimeter for well.

Fin is encrypted, and adopts enhanced heat exchange structure, will improve air flow resistance widely.Single-stage axial fan blast deficiency does not overcome the air flow resistance of fin, causes air quantity sharply to descend, and the air themperature in the fin of flowing through rises rapidly, and the heat transfer temperature difference of cross-ventilation heat exchange descends, and then heat dissipation capacity descends.The single-stage axial fan does not satisfy requirement, can adopt multistage axial flow formula fan and centrifugal fan, and the blast height can satisfy above requirement.

The conductive coefficient of fine copper is the nearly twice of fine aluminium, but the proportion of copper is nearly three times of aluminium, the price of copper is also high, closely be three times in the price of aluminium, the involved device heating density of the utility model also do not reach must adopt copper do heat-conducting block can not degree, thereby can select for use aluminium to do heat-conducting block fully, if thermal conduction resistance is bigger, can pass through thickened material, and change heat-conducting block overall dimension (height or diameter), reduce the heat conduction distance in the heat-conducting block.Fin changes aluminium into by copper material, can then can not reduce fin efficiency by increasing rib thickness (doubling).Thereby fin and heat-conducting block employing aluminium, weight is lighter, and is more economical.

Vane drive air movement in the tube-axial fan, producing has circumferential component velocity, centrifugal outside.The fan rotation direction is opposite with the fin bending direction, then the circumferential component velocity of air is also with regard to anti-the bending direction of fin, air through fan directly blows in fin curved interior (entad side), the circumferential component velocity of air and the inboard of fin bending are less than 90 °, thereby fin has centripetal thrust force to air, help increasing air mass flow like this, help heat radiation and improve by fin root place.
