It can be appreciated that when the IGBT module 141 is disposed at the bottom of the accommodating portion, the energy storage module 142 is located between the first liquid cooling plate 120 and the second liquid cooling plate 130, that is, a certain gap exists between the energy storage module 142 and the bottom surface of one of the first liquid cooling plate 120 and the second liquid cooling plate 130 located at the top, and the heat dissipation area is further increased by adding the plurality of heat dissipation portions 180 disposed at intervals in the gap, so that the heat transfer efficiency is improved, and the heat dissipation effect on the energy storage module 142 is improved. In this embodiment, the plurality of heat dissipation portions 180 are disposed on the bottom surface of the first liquid cooling plate 120 at intervals along the width direction of the first liquid cooling plate 120, and the heat dissipation portions 180 are straight plates. Of course, in other embodiments, the heat dissipating portions 180 may have a sloping plate, V-shaped or corrugated structure, and the number, distribution and structure of the heat dissipating portions 180 are not particularly limited in this embodiment.
In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 2, the converter 100 further includes a water receiving member 190, the water receiving member 190 being installed below one of the first and second liquid cooling plates 120 and 130 at the top of the receiving chamber for collecting condensed water.
It will be appreciated that, considering that the first liquid cooling plate 120 and the second liquid cooling plate 130 dissipate heat of the electronic device in operation, the temperature in the accommodating cavity is still far higher than the temperature outside the converter 100, so that condensed water is generated on the surfaces of the first liquid cooling plate 120 and the second liquid cooling plate 130, and although the operating temperature of the electronic device in normal operation can quickly evaporate the condensed water falling on the electronic device, the condensed water falling on the electronic device in not operation can affect the operation thereof, thereby reducing the service life of the whole converter 100.
In order to solve the above problems, the water receiving member 190 is installed under one of the first and second liquid cooling plates 120 and 130 at the top, thereby collecting condensed water generated during heat exchange thereof, and preventing the condensed water from falling down to various places of the receiving chamber under the effect of gravity. In this embodiment, since the first liquid cooling plate 120 is located at the top of the accommodating chamber, the water receiving member 190 is disposed below the first liquid cooling plate 120. It should be noted that the connection manner between the water receiving member 190 and the first liquid cooling plate 120 includes, but is not limited to, a fixed connection by threads, a buckle, or a pin.
In this embodiment, the water receiving member 190 includes a horizontal plate and two vertical plates respectively disposed at both ends of the horizontal plate, that is, the water receiving member 190 is -shaped, so that a part of condensed water directly drops on the horizontal plate, and another part of condensed water flows onto the horizontal plate after being guided by the vertical plates, that is, the condensed water is collected on the horizontal plate.
In this embodiment, considering that the amount of the condensed water that can be collected by the water receiving member 190 is limited, the case 110 is provided with a drain port, and the bottom surface (i.e., horizontal plate) of the water receiving member 190 is inclined to allow the collected condensed water to flow toward the drain port. Even if the condensed water collected in the water receiving member 190 is automatically gathered at the inner wall of the shell 110 provided with the water draining port under the action of gravity, the condensed water can automatically flow out from the water draining port when reaching a certain height, so that the use safety of the current transformer 100 can be further improved, the service life of the current transformer 100 can be prolonged, and the operation of periodically taking out the water receiving member 190 from the current transformer 100 to clean the condensed water can be avoided, so that the current transformer 100 can be maintained.
When the IGBT module 141 is attached to the first liquid cooling plate 120 or the second liquid cooling plate 130 located at the top, the upper surface of the horizontal plate is located below the IGBT module 141.
In some embodiments, the water receiving member 190 may also be directly attached to the bottom surface of the first liquid cooling plate 120, and the water receiving member 190 is made of a water absorbing material, and the condensed water is collected by directly absorbing the condensed water, so as to avoid dropping of the condensed water. The water absorbing material includes, but is not limited to, foam, sponge, or silica gel.
