- the subject invention is related to the inventions disclosed in co-pending applications DP-311409 (H&H 60408-566) and DP-312789 (H&H 60408-597), filed concurrently herewith.
- a fluid heat exchanger assembly for cooling an electronic device for cooling an electronic device.
- Heat exchangers and heat sink assemblies have been used that apply natural or forced convection cooling methods to cool the electronic devices. These heat exchangers typically use air to directly remove heat from the electronic devices. However, air has a relatively low heat capacity. Such heat sink assemblies are suitable for removing heat from relatively low power heat sources with power density in the range of 5 to 15 W/cm 2 . The increased computing speeds result in corresponding increases in the power density of the electronic devices in the order of 20 to 35 W/cm 2 thus requiring more effective heat sink assemblies.
- liquid-cooled units called LCUs employing a cold plate in conjunction with high heat capacity fluids, like water and water-glycol solutions, have been used to remove heat from these types of high power density heat sources.
- LCU liquid-cooled units
- One type of LCU circulates the cooling liquid so that the liquid removes heat from the heat source, like a computer chip, affixed to the cold plate, and is then transferred to a remote location where the heat is easily dissipated into a flowing air stream with the use of a liquid-to-air heat exchanger and an air moving device such as a fan or a blower.
- LCUs are characterized as indirect cooling units since they remove heat from the heat source indirectly by a secondary working fluid, generally a single-phase liquid, which first removes heat from the heat source and then dissipates it into the air stream flowing through the remotely located liquid-to-air heat exchanger.
- secondary working fluid generally a single-phase liquid
- thermosiphon cooling units Such TCUs perform better than LCUs above 45 W/cm 2 heat flux at the cold plate.
- a typical TCU absorbs heat generated by the electronic device by vaporizing the captive working fluid on a boiler plate of the unit. The boiling of the working fluid constitutes a phase change from liquid-to-vapor state and as such the working fluid of the TCU is considered to be a two-phase fluid.
- the vapor generated during boiling of the working fluid is then transferred to an air-cooled condenser, in close proximity to the boiler plate, where it is liquefied by the process of film condensation over the condensing surface of the TCU.
- the heat is rejected into an air stream flowing over a finned external surface of the condenser.
- the condensed liquid is returned back to the boiler plate by gravity to continue the boiling-condensing cycle.
- heat generated by an electronic device is transferred to the lower portion of a housing having a refrigerant therein for liquid-to-vapor transformation as coolant liquid flows through a plurality of flexible tubes in an upper portion of the housing to vary the volume of the tubes for modulating the flow of coolant liquid through the tubes in response to heat transferred by the electronic device to the lower portion of the housing.
- the invention employs an array of flexible tubes to separate the secondary two-phase fluid from the single-phase working fluid of the LCU.
- the flexible tubes perform the useful function of changing the volume of the upper portion or boiling chamber depending on the chip heat flux. As the chip heat flux increases, the flexible tubes contract decreasing the tube volume thereby increasing the coolant flow velocity and the heat transfer. As the chip heat flux decreases, the flexible tubes expand increasing the tube volume thereby decreasing the coolant flow velocity and the heat transfer. Thus the flexible tubes continuously regulate the working fluid flow velocity through the tubes thereby adjusting the heat transfer rate in response to computer cooling demand.
- the present invention utilizes a captive secondary fluid capable of undergoing liquid-to-vapor transformation within the boiling chamber to remove heat by ebullition from the cold plate.
- the resulting vapor surrounds the flexible tubes through which flows the working fluid of the TCU without coming in direct contact with the secondary fluid vapor.
- the secondary fluid vapor is condensed by the working liquid coolant flowing to the interior of the flexible tubes.
- the boiling chamber with the secondary two-phase fluid functions as a thermosiphon with superincumbent flexible tubes with working fluid flowing them serving as the condenser tubes.
- the heat transfer rate of the two-phase secondary fluid is inherently higher than that of the single-phase working fluid. Therefore, besides enhancing the cooling capacity of the TCU, the invention solves the problem of corrosion and leakage that plagues the LCU with highly aggressive working fluid flowing directly over the cold plate.
- the captive two-phase secondary fluid in direct contact with the cold plate is not as aggressive as the working fluid of the LCU.

Abstract
Description
- The subject invention is related to the inventions disclosed in co-pending applications DP-311409 (H&H 60408-566) and DP-312789 (H&H 60408-597), filed concurrently herewith.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- A fluid heat exchanger assembly for cooling an electronic device.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- Research activities have focused on developing assemblies to efficiently dissipate heat from electronic devices that are highly concentrated heat sources, such as microprocessors and computer chips. These electronic devices typically have power densities in the range of about 5 to 35 W/cm2 and relatively small available space for placement of fans, heat exchangers, heat sink assemblies and the like. However, these electronic devices are increasingly being miniaturized and designed to achieve increased computing speeds that generate heat up to 200 W/cm2.
- Heat exchangers and heat sink assemblies have been used that apply natural or forced convection cooling methods to cool the electronic devices. These heat exchangers typically use air to directly remove heat from the electronic devices. However, air has a relatively low heat capacity. Such heat sink assemblies are suitable for removing heat from relatively low power heat sources with power density in the range of 5 to 15 W/cm2. The increased computing speeds result in corresponding increases in the power density of the electronic devices in the order of 20 to 35 W/cm2 thus requiring more effective heat sink assemblies.
- In response to the increased heat to be dissipated, liquid-cooled units called LCUs employing a cold plate in conjunction with high heat capacity fluids, like water and water-glycol solutions, have been used to remove heat from these types of high power density heat sources. One type of LCU circulates the cooling liquid so that the liquid removes heat from the heat source, like a computer chip, affixed to the cold plate, and is then transferred to a remote location where the heat is easily dissipated into a flowing air stream with the use of a liquid-to-air heat exchanger and an air moving device such as a fan or a blower. These types of LCUs are characterized as indirect cooling units since they remove heat from the heat source indirectly by a secondary working fluid, generally a single-phase liquid, which first removes heat from the heat source and then dissipates it into the air stream flowing through the remotely located liquid-to-air heat exchanger. Such LCUs are satisfactory for moderate heat flux less than 35 to 45 W/cm2 at the cold plate.
- In the prior art heat sinks, such as those disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,422,307 and 5,304,846, the single-phase working fluid of the liquid cooled unit (LCU) flows directly over the cold plate causing cold plate corrosion and leakage problems.
- As computing speeds continue to increase even more dramatically, the corresponding power densities of the devices rise up to 200 W/cm2. The constraints of the miniaturization coupled with high heat flux generated by such devices call for extremely efficient, compact, and reliable thermosiphon cooling units called TCUs. Such TCUs perform better than LCUs above 45 W/cm2 heat flux at the cold plate. A typical TCU absorbs heat generated by the electronic device by vaporizing the captive working fluid on a boiler plate of the unit. The boiling of the working fluid constitutes a phase change from liquid-to-vapor state and as such the working fluid of the TCU is considered to be a two-phase fluid. The vapor generated during boiling of the working fluid is then transferred to an air-cooled condenser, in close proximity to the boiler plate, where it is liquefied by the process of film condensation over the condensing surface of the TCU. The heat is rejected into an air stream flowing over a finned external surface of the condenser. The condensed liquid is returned back to the boiler plate by gravity to continue the boiling-condensing cycle. These TCUs require boiling and condensing processes to occur in close proximity to each other thereby imposing conflicting thermal conditions in a relatively small volume.
- Examples of cooling systems for electronic devices are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,704,658 to Yokouchi et al; U.S. Pat. No. 5,529,115 to Paterson and U.S. Pat. No. 5,704,416 to Larson et al.
- In accordance with the subject invention, heat generated by an electronic device is transferred to the lower portion of a housing having a refrigerant therein for liquid-to-vapor transformation as coolant liquid flows through a plurality of flexible tubes in an upper portion of the housing to vary the volume of the tubes for modulating the flow of coolant liquid through the tubes in response to heat transferred by the electronic device to the lower portion of the housing.
- The invention employs an array of flexible tubes to separate the secondary two-phase fluid from the single-phase working fluid of the LCU. The flexible tubes perform the useful function of changing the volume of the upper portion or boiling chamber depending on the chip heat flux. As the chip heat flux increases, the flexible tubes contract decreasing the tube volume thereby increasing the coolant flow velocity and the heat transfer. As the chip heat flux decreases, the flexible tubes expand increasing the tube volume thereby decreasing the coolant flow velocity and the heat transfer. Thus the flexible tubes continuously regulate the working fluid flow velocity through the tubes thereby adjusting the heat transfer rate in response to computer cooling demand.
- The present invention utilizes a captive secondary fluid capable of undergoing liquid-to-vapor transformation within the boiling chamber to remove heat by ebullition from the cold plate. The resulting vapor surrounds the flexible tubes through which flows the working fluid of the TCU without coming in direct contact with the secondary fluid vapor. The secondary fluid vapor is condensed by the working liquid coolant flowing to the interior of the flexible tubes. Thus the boiling chamber with the secondary two-phase fluid functions as a thermosiphon with superincumbent flexible tubes with working fluid flowing them serving as the condenser tubes.
- The heat transfer rate of the two-phase secondary fluid is inherently higher than that of the single-phase working fluid. Therefore, besides enhancing the cooling capacity of the TCU, the invention solves the problem of corrosion and leakage that plagues the LCU with highly aggressive working fluid flowing directly over the cold plate. The captive two-phase secondary fluid in direct contact with the cold plate is not as aggressive as the working fluid of the LCU.
- Other advantages of the present invention will be readily appreciated, as the same becomes better understood by reference to the following detailed description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the heat exchanger of the subject invention showing the housing cutaway; -
FIG. 2 is a cross sectional view of the heat exchanger shown inFIG. 1 ; and -
FIG. 3 is a schematic of a liquid cooling system in which the heat exchanger of the subject invention may be utilized. - A fluid heat exchanger comprises a
housing 20 having aninlet 22 and anoutlet 24 and anupper portion 26 and alower portion 28 extending between theinlet 22 and theoutlet 24 for establishing a direction of flow from theinlet 22 to theoutlet 24. The assembly is used to cool anelectronic device 30 engaging or secured to thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20, as by being adhesively held in a recess (not shown) in the bottom of thehousing 20. - A plurality of
tubes 32 extend between a pair ofheader tanks 34 in fluid communication with theinlet 22 and theoutlet 24 for establishing a flow of coolant liquid from theinlet 22 to theoutlet 24 in theupper portion 26 of thehousing 20. Theinlet 22 andoutlet 24header tanks 34 are in fluid communication with opposite ends of thetubes 32 for feeding coolant liquid to thevarious tubes 32 from theinlet 22 and for collecting coolant liquid from thevarious tubes 32 for feeding the coolant liquid to theoutlet 24. In other words, theinlet 22 feeds cooling fluid into theheader tank 34 at theinlet 22 of thehousing 20 and theoutlet 24 conveys the coolant away from theheader tank 34 at theoutlet 24 of thehousing 20. - The
housing 20 is hermetically sealed about thetubes 32 to contain a refrigerant in thelower portion 28 for liquid-to-vapor transformation. Thetubes 32 are radially flexible to vary the volume of thetubes 32 for modulating the flow of coolant liquid through thetubes 32 in response to heat transferred by theelectronic device 30 to thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20. Each of thetubes 32 defines a cross section having a generally hour-glass shape with a waisted middle whereby the concave sides of eachtube 32 move in and out in response to the pressure of coolant flow through thetubes 32. Thetubes 32 may comprise a thin gage metal, although various materials may be utilized that are inert to the coolant and the refrigerant. For example, thetubes 32 may be made by impact extrusion like tooth paste containers. - A plurality of
fins 36 extend from the bottom of thehousing 20 for increasing heat transfer from theelectronic device 30 to the interior of thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20. Thefins 36 extend linearly in the direction of flow under thetubes 32 and between theheader tanks 34. Theheat transfer fins 36 are disposed in thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20 for transferring heat from theelectronic device 30 disposed on the exterior of thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20 by boiling the refrigerant in thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20. Thefins 36 could be of the type disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,588,498. - The
upper portion 26 of thehousing 20 is generally rectangular and thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20 is generally rectangular and theupper portion 26 has a larger periphery to overhang thelower portion 28 by the width of theheader tanks 34. In other words, thehousing 20 is generally a square in both the upper 26 andlower portions 28 but theheader tanks 34 extend in one direction or along one axis from opposite sides of theupper portion 26 to overhang thelower portion 28. In other words, theupper portion 26 has the same footprint as thelower portion 28 except when theheader tanks 34 are included with theupper portion 26, theupper portion 26 has a larger footprint than thelower portion 28 in one direction or along one axis. Thehousing 20 actually comprises atop wall 38 extending between theheader tanks 34 and spaced from and over thetubes 32 and abottom wall 40 to which the electronic element is adhesively attached. A pair of oppositely disposedside walls 42 extend vertically between thetop wall 38 and thebottom wall 40 and spaced laterally from theside-most tubes 32 and a pair of oppositelydisposed end walls 44 extend vertically between thebottom wall 40 and the bottoms of theheader tanks 34. The joints between the various walls and between theside walls 42, theend walls 44 and theheader tanks 34 are all hermetically sealed, as by brazing, or the like. Theupper portion 26 of thehousing 20 completely surrounds, i.e. is spaced from, thetubes 32 so that thetubes 32 are surrounded by refrigerant vapor. - The operation of the
heat exchanger housing 20 is incorporated into a liquid cooling system as illustrated inFIG. 3 . Theelectronic device 30 generates an amount of heat to be dissipated and the heat is transferred from theelectronic device 30 to the bottom of theheat exchanger housing 20. The heat is then conducted from the bottom to thefins 36 and thence to the cooling fluid. A working fluid mover, such as a pump P, moves a fluid, usually a liquid, through a working fluid storage vessel T, that stores excess working fluid. The pump P moves the cooling fluid through a heat extractor or radiator assembly to dissipate heat from the cooling fluid, the heat extractor or radiator assembly including a fan F and radiator R. The radiator R can be of the well knowntype including tubes 32 withcooling fins 36 between thetubes 32 to exchange heat between the cooling fluid passing through thetubes 32 and air forced through thefins 36 by the fan F. - The invention therefore provides a method of cooling an
electronic device 30 by disposing a refrigerant in thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20 for liquid-to-vapor transformation and transferring the heat generated by theelectronic device 30 to thelower portion 28 of ahousing 20. The method is distinguished by flowing coolant liquid through the plurality offlexible tubes 32 in anupper portion 26 of thehousing 20 and varying the volume of thetubes 32 for modulating the flow of coolant liquid through thetubes 32 in response to heat transferred by anelectronic device 30 to thelower portion 28 of thehousing 20. - Obviously, many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. The invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described within the scope of the appended claims, wherein recitations should be interpreted to cover any combination in which the incentive novelty exercises its utility.
