 図1は、本発明の実施例1に係る自励振動ヒートパイプ冷却装置100の構造を示す側面図である。
 自励振動ヒートパイプ冷却装置100は、自励振動をするヒートパイプ12、受熱部材10および発熱体11から構成される。発熱体11は、このヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称に配置されている。また、このヒートパイプ12および受熱部材10の材質としては、熱伝導性の良いアルミニウム合金や銅などの金属を用いる。
FIG. 1 is a side view showing the structure of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe cooling device 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
The self-excited vibration heat pipe cooling device 100 is composed of a heat pipe 12, a heat receiving member 10, and a heating element 11 that vibrate by self-excitation. The heating element 11 is asymmetrically arranged with respect to the central portion of the heat pipe 12 in the longitudinal direction. Further, as the material of the heat pipe 12 and the heat receiving member 10, a metal such as an aluminum alloy or copper having good thermal conductivity is used.
 自励振動をするヒートパイプ12は、その長手方向に亘って等間隔に複数回U字状に折り曲げられた形状となっている。ヒートパイプ12の複数のU字状の折り曲げ部分の一方端が、受熱部材10の一面とロウ付け等で接合され、ヒートパイプ12に等間隔に複数の受熱部9を形成している。また、ヒートパイプ12の受熱部9以外の等間隔の複数の部分は、空気101または102(紙面に対して両方向の風を示す)との熱交換を行う放熱部20を形成している。また、折り曲げられたヒートパイプ12どうしの間には、フィン13がロウ付け等により固定され、ヒートパイプ12とともに放熱部を形成している。 The heat pipe 12 that vibrates by itself has a shape that is bent into a U shape a plurality of times at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction thereof. One end of a plurality of U-shaped bent portions of the heat pipe 12 is joined to one surface of the heat receiving member 10 by brazing or the like, and a plurality of heat receiving portions 9 are formed on the heat pipe 12 at equal intervals. Further, a plurality of equidistant portions of the heat pipe 12 other than the heat receiving portions 9 form heat radiating portions 20 that exchange heat with air 101 or 102 (indicating wind in both directions with respect to the paper surface). Further, fins 13 are fixed between the bent heat pipes 12 by brazing or the like to form a heat radiating portion together with the heat pipes 12.
 発熱体11は、ヒートパイプ12の受熱部9が接合する受熱部材10の面とは反対側の面に配置される。発熱体11の配置位置は、ヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称の位置として、一方の端部3側寄りである。その位置で発熱体11は、グリース等の部材(図示せず)を介してねじ等(図示せず)により固定されている。ここにおいて、発熱体11は、例えば、IGBTやMOS-FETなどのパワー半導体素子を備えたパワーモジュールである。 The heating element 11 is arranged on a surface opposite to the surface of the heat receiving member 10 to which the heat receiving portion 9 of the heat pipe 12 is joined. The arrangement position of the heating element 11 is a position asymmetrical with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe 12, and is closer to one end portion 3 side. At that position, the heating element 11 is fixed by a screw or the like (not shown) via a member (not shown) such as grease. Here, the heating element 11 is a power module including a power semiconductor element such as an IGBT or a MOS-FET, for example.
 図2および図3は、本発明が後述する実施例において採用する自励振動ヒートパイプの流路構造の一例を示す図である。また、図4は、図2または図3に示す自励振動ヒートパイプの断面構造として、例えば図2のA-A断面を示す図である。 2 and 3 are diagrams showing an example of the flow path structure of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe adopted in the examples described later in the present invention. Further, FIG. 4 is a diagram showing, for example, the AA cross section of FIG. 2 as a cross-sectional structure of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe shown in FIG. 2 or FIG.
 図2および図3に示す自励振動ヒートパイプ12は、多穴扁平管で構成している。構造としては、例えば、図2に示すように、平行並列に整列し、各列で相互に連通のない複数の流路により構成される場合と、図3に示すように、蛇行流路により構成される場合がある。また、本発明が採用する自励振動ヒートパイプを構成する管は、上記の多穴扁平管に限定されるものではなく、例えば図5に示すように、単一の円管による構成であってもよい。 The self-excited oscillating heat pipe 12 shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is composed of a multi-hole flat pipe. As the structure, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, it is arranged in parallel and parallel, and each row is composed of a plurality of flow paths that do not communicate with each other, and as shown in FIG. 3, it is composed of a meandering flow path. May be done. Further, the pipe constituting the self-excited oscillating heat pipe adopted in the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned multi-hole flat pipe, and is composed of a single circular pipe, for example, as shown in FIG. May be good.
 隣り合う流路1の間には、仕切り部2が設けられ、流路径および仕切り部の幅(流路間ピッチ)は、それぞれmmオーダーであって、流路長は、流路径に比べて十分に長い。 A partition 2 is provided between adjacent flow paths 1, the flow path diameter and the width of the partition (between flow paths pitch) are on the order of mm, and the flow path length is sufficient as compared with the flow path diameter. To long.
 また、自励振動ヒートパイプ12の厚みは、図4に示すように、熱伝導性や加工容易性からmmオーダー程度に設定される。
 密閉された流路1内には、流路体積の半分の量の作動流体(図示せず)が封入されている。
 更に、自励振動ヒートパイプを波型に形成するに当たっては、多穴扁平管に対して曲げ工程を用いることなく、同じ長さを持つストレート形状の多穴扁平管を複数本厚み方向に並列に設置することによって構成してもよい。すなわち、複数本厚み方向に並列に設置した多穴扁平管の両端部それぞれを、多穴扁平管側にスリットを備えた端部封止部材のような部材を使用して固定し、このスリットにより多穴扁平管の両端それぞれにおいて隣接する多穴扁平管の端部同士を交互に連通させることにより、作動液の移動を可能にする。このようにして、流路が矩形波状に形成される(多穴扁平管の長手方向に沿って交互に折り返して延在する)密閉流路を持つ自励振動ヒートパイプを形成することができる。
Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the thickness of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe 12 is set to about mm order from the viewpoint of thermal conductivity and ease of processing.
A working fluid (not shown) in an amount of half the volume of the flow path is sealed in the closed flow path 1.
Furthermore, in forming the self-excited oscillating heat pipe into a wavy shape, a plurality of straight-shaped multi-hole flat pipes having the same length are arranged in parallel in the thickness direction without using a bending process for the multi-hole flat pipe. It may be configured by installing. That is, both ends of the multi-hole flat pipes installed in parallel in the thickness direction of a plurality of pipes are fixed by using a member such as an end sealing member having slits on the multi-hole flat pipe side, and the slits are used. The hydraulic fluid can be moved by alternately communicating the ends of the adjacent multi-hole flat pipes at both ends of the multi-hole flat pipe. In this way, it is possible to form a self-excited oscillating heat pipe having a closed flow path in which the flow path is formed in a rectangular wave shape (alternately folded and extends along the longitudinal direction of the multi-hole flat tube).
 次に、本発明に係る自励振動ヒートパイプが自励振動を開始するときの始動のメカニズムについて説明する。
 図5乃至図8は、本発明に係る自励振動ヒートパイプの始動性に関係する計算結果を示す図である。ここで、計算に用いた計算モデルは、非特許文献3による。
Next, a starting mechanism when the self-excited oscillating heat pipe according to the present invention starts self-excited vibration will be described.
5 to 8 are diagrams showing calculation results related to the startability of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe according to the present invention. Here, the calculation model used for the calculation is based on Non-Patent Document 3.
 図5は、計算に用いた自励振動ヒートパイプの概略図および初期の気液分布を示す図である。ここで、計算に用いた自励振動ヒートパイプは、内径1.0mm、外径1.6mmの銅管で、1ターン長さ(ヒートパイプの隣り合うU字状の折り曲げ部間のヒートパイプ長手方向の距離)が240mm、ターン数が10である。 FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe used in the calculation and a diagram showing the initial gas-liquid distribution. Here, the self-excited vibration heat pipe used in the calculation is a copper pipe having an inner diameter of 1.0 mm and an outer diameter of 1.6 mm, and has a length of one turn (the length of the heat pipe between adjacent U-shaped bent portions of the heat pipe). The distance in the direction) is 240 mm, and the number of turns is 10.
 1ターン当りについて、受熱部は8mm、放熱部は204mm、その他は断熱部である。また、ヒートパイプ両端には50mm延長した部分を設け、蒸気チャンバ部としている。計算については、片側断熱の無しと有りの両方のケースで行った。片側断熱としては、ヒートパイプの右側端部の冷却部を13mm断熱している(図5で、ハッチングを付した部分)。 For each turn, the heat receiving part is 8 mm, the heat radiating part is 204 mm, and the others are heat insulating parts. Further, both ends of the heat pipe are provided with portions extended by 50 mm to form a steam chamber portion. The calculations were performed in both cases with and without one-sided insulation. As for one-sided heat insulation, the cooling part at the right end of the heat pipe is heat-insulated by 13 mm (the part with hatching in FIG. 5).
 ヒートパイプ内に封入する作動流体としては、R1336mzz(Z)を用い、封入率を0.5とした。ここで、R1336mzz(Z)は、規格に基づき、冷媒を示す冷媒番号に相当し、新冷媒の一つである。 R1336mzz (Z) was used as the working fluid to be sealed in the heat pipe, and the filling rate was set to 0.5. Here, R1336mzz (Z) corresponds to a refrigerant number indicating a refrigerant based on the standard, and is one of the new refrigerants.
 上記の計算では、1ターン当り、1個の液体スラグが存在すると仮定し、液体スラグの長さを1ターン長さの半分の120mmとした。初期の液体スラグの分布としては、均等分布を仮定し、各ターンの放熱部側に、1個の液体スラグを対称に分布させた。 In the above calculation, it is assumed that there is one liquid slag per turn, and the length of the liquid slag is 120 mm, which is half the length of one turn. As the initial distribution of liquid slag, an even distribution was assumed, and one liquid slag was symmetrically distributed on the heat dissipation part side of each turn.
 受熱部の熱流束としては、1ターン当りのヒータ加熱量3Wに相当する値を与えた。放熱部の冷却温度は20°C、熱伝達率は風速4m/secの管外熱伝達率に相当する値を与えた。また、初期の蒸気プラグには、その周囲全体に厚さ5μmの液膜が存在すると仮定した。ヒートパイプの初期温度は、冷却温度と同じとし、時間0secで加熱を開始した。 As the heat flux of the heat receiving part, a value corresponding to the heater heating amount of 3 W per turn was given. The cooling temperature of the heat radiating part was 20 ° C., and the heat transfer coefficient was given a value corresponding to the heat transfer coefficient outside the tube at a wind speed of 4 m / sec. Further, it was assumed that the initial vapor plug had a liquid film having a thickness of 5 μm all around the plug. The initial temperature of the heat pipe was the same as the cooling temperature, and heating was started at a time of 0 sec.
 図6は、(a)に示す片側断熱無しと、(b)に示す片側断熱有りにおける、気液分布の時間変化を示す図である。図の縦軸は、ヒートパイプの原点(蒸気チャンバ部を除いた左側端部)からの距離、図の横軸は、加熱開始後の時間である。図に示す、黒い部分が液体スラグ、白い部分が蒸気プラグ、を表す。加熱開始後、(a)に示す片側断熱無しでは、振動は発生せず、(b)に示す片側断熱有りでは、時間16sec付近で振動が発生している。 FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the time change of gas-liquid distribution with and without one-sided heat insulation shown in (a) and with one-sided heat insulation shown in (b). The vertical axis of the figure is the distance from the origin of the heat pipe (the left end excluding the steam chamber portion), and the horizontal axis of the figure is the time after the start of heating. In the figure, the black part represents the liquid slag and the white part represents the vapor plug. After the start of heating, vibration does not occur without the one-sided heat insulation shown in (a), and vibration occurs in the vicinity of time 16 sec with the one-sided heat insulation shown in (b).
 図7は、(a)に示す片側断熱無しと、(b)に示す片側断熱有りにおける、自励振動開始時(16sec付近)での受熱部の温度分布を計算した結果を示す図である。(a)に示す片側断熱無しでは、受熱部の温度分布は均等であるが、(b)に示す片側断熱有りでは、右側端部の受熱部の温度が他の部分の受熱部の温度より高くなっている。 FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the results of calculating the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion at the start of self-excited vibration (around 16 sec) with and without one-sided heat insulation shown in (a) and with one-sided heat insulation shown in (b). Without the one-sided heat insulation shown in (a), the temperature distribution of the heat receiving part is uniform, but with the one-sided heat insulation shown in (b), the temperature of the heat receiving part at the right end is higher than the temperature of the heat receiving part of the other part. It has become.
 図8は、ヒートパイプの中央部の左側から5番目と6番目の液体スラグ変位として、20secまでの時間変化の計算結果を示す図である。 FIG. 8 is a diagram showing the calculation results of the time change up to 20 sec as the fifth and sixth liquid slag displacements from the left side of the central portion of the heat pipe.
 (a)に示す片側断熱無しでは、時間9.6sec付近で5番目と6番目の液体スラグの変位は、ほぼ対称に-1mmと+1mmを示し、その後、2mm程度の振幅の微小な振動が見られるが、大きな振動には至っていない。 Without the one-sided insulation shown in (a), the displacements of the 5th and 6th liquid slags showed almost symmetrically -1 mm and +1 mm at around 9.6 sec, and then minute vibrations with an amplitude of about 2 mm were observed. However, it has not reached a large vibration.
 ここで、5番目の液体スラグの変位が-1mm、6番目の液体スラグの変位が+1mmを示していることについて説明する。ヒートパイプ両端には蒸気チャンバ部があり、左端の1番目と右端の11番目の蒸気プラグが他の蒸気プラグと同様に、液膜蒸発によって蒸気プラグの質量が増加しても、元々の体積が他の蒸気プラグより大きい。そのため、圧力上昇が小さく、液体スラグの両端に働く圧力差により、液体スラグがヒートパイプの中央から両端の方向に移動するためである。 Here, it will be explained that the displacement of the fifth liquid slag is -1 mm and the displacement of the sixth liquid slag is +1 mm. There are steam chambers at both ends of the heat pipe, and the first steam plug on the left end and the eleventh steam plug on the right end have the same original volume as other steam plugs, even if the mass of the steam plug increases due to liquid film evaporation. Larger than other steam plugs. Therefore, the pressure rise is small, and the liquid slag moves from the center of the heat pipe to both ends due to the pressure difference acting on both ends of the liquid slag.
 一方で、(b)に示す片側断熱有りでは、時間10.0sec付近で両方の液体スラグの変位は共に-3mmとなっている。これは、右端の局所的な断熱により、11番目の蒸気プラグの圧力が他より高くなり、液体スラグの両端に働く圧力差により、全ての液体スラグがヒートパイプの右端から左端の方向に移動するためである。 On the other hand, with the one-sided insulation shown in (b), the displacement of both liquid slags is -3 mm at around 10.0 sec. This is because the local insulation at the right end makes the pressure of the 11th steam plug higher than the others, and the pressure difference acting on both ends of the liquid slag causes all the liquid slag to move from the right end to the left end of the heat pipe. Because.
 時間10.0secの後、液体スラグは3mm程度の正負の変位を2回繰り返した後、時間12.7secから負の変位で振幅を少しずつ増加しながら振動する。その後、時間15.7sec以降、5mm以上の大きな振幅で振動する。 After the time 10.0 sec, the liquid slag repeats positive and negative displacements of about 3 mm twice, and then vibrates while gradually increasing the amplitude with negative displacements from the time 12.7 sec. Then, after a time of 15.7 sec, it vibrates with a large amplitude of 5 mm or more.
 このように、液体スラグの変位に伴い、蒸気プラグも移動し、蒸気プラグでは、壁温との温度差により液膜において蒸発と凝縮とが行われる。これにより、蒸気プラグの質量が増減し、それに伴い蒸気プラグの圧力の上昇と下降とが起こる。液体スラグの時間15.7sec以降の振動は、液体スラグの両端に働く圧力差の変動が大きくなることにより始まる。 In this way, the vapor plug moves with the displacement of the liquid slag, and in the vapor plug, evaporation and condensation are performed in the liquid film due to the temperature difference from the wall temperature. As a result, the mass of the steam plug increases or decreases, and the pressure of the steam plug rises and falls accordingly. The vibration after the liquid slag time of 15.7 sec starts when the fluctuation of the pressure difference acting on both ends of the liquid slag becomes large.
 以上により、片側断熱による自励振動の始動のメカニズムについてまとめる。
 ヒートパイプの片側端部を断熱することにより、加熱後、液体スラグが同一方向に移動し、液体スラグの変位が一方向に揃っている状態となる。この液体スラグの移動により、蒸気プラグでは、管壁との温度差により、液膜において蒸発と凝縮が行われる。これによって、蒸気プラグの質量が増減し、それに伴い圧力の上昇と下降とが起こる。従って、液体スラグの両端に働く圧力差が変動し微小な振動が発生する。
From the above, the mechanism of starting self-excited vibration by one-sided heat insulation is summarized.
By insulating one end of the heat pipe, the liquid slag moves in the same direction after heating, and the displacements of the liquid slag are aligned in one direction. Due to this movement of the liquid slag, the vapor plug evaporates and condenses in the liquid film due to the temperature difference from the tube wall. As a result, the mass of the steam plug increases or decreases, and the pressure rises and falls accordingly. Therefore, the pressure difference acting on both ends of the liquid slag fluctuates, and minute vibration is generated.
 この時、片側断熱有りでは、液体スラグの変位が一方向に揃っているため、各液体スラグの運動を打ち消し合うことなく、大きな振動に発展する。一方、片側断熱無しでは、振動しやすいヒートパイプの中央部で、液体スラグの変位が小さく、向きも逆向きのため、発生した微小な振動は打ち消し合い、大きな振動に発展しない。 At this time, with one-sided insulation, the displacements of the liquid slags are aligned in one direction, so the movements of the liquid slags do not cancel each other out and develop into large vibrations. On the other hand, without one-sided heat insulation, the displacement of the liquid slag is small at the center of the heat pipe, which easily vibrates, and the directions are opposite, so the generated minute vibrations cancel each other out and do not develop into large vibrations.
 本発明は、上記の計算結果を応用したものである。すなわち、本発明に係る自励振動ヒートパイプ冷却装置は、図7の(b)に示すように、ヒートパイプの長手方向に対する受熱部の温度分布が、片側端部で他に比べて高くなる。すなわち、ヒートパイプの長手方向の中央部に対して非対称となる特性を有することで、優れた始動性を示すことになる。 The present invention is an application of the above calculation results. That is, in the self-excited vibration heat pipe cooling device according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 7B, the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion with respect to the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe is higher at one end than at the other end. That is, by having a characteristic of being asymmetric with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe, excellent startability is exhibited.
 本実施例1は、ヒートパイプの長手方向に対する受熱部の温度分布がヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称となる特性を持たせるために、発熱体11をヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称に配置している。 In the first embodiment, the heating element 11 is mounted in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe 12 in order to have a characteristic that the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion with respect to the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe is asymmetric with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe 12. It is arranged asymmetrically with respect to the central part of.
 図5乃至図8に示したとおり、計算では、ヒートパイプとして単一の円管の1つの流路を用いたが、図2に示す多穴扁平管の複数の流路でも同じ効果が得られる。 As shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, in the calculation, one flow path of a single circular pipe was used as the heat pipe, but the same effect can be obtained with a plurality of flow paths of the multi-hole flat pipe shown in FIG. ..
 一方、図3に示す蛇行流路では、扁平管端部におけるターン部の流動抵抗が大きく、扁平管の端部で作動流体が動作しづらいため、液体スラグの振動は、扁平管端部のターン部を除いた部分で主に発生する。 On the other hand, in the meandering flow path shown in FIG. 3, the flow resistance of the turn portion at the end of the flat tube is large, and it is difficult for the working fluid to move at the end of the flat tube. Therefore, the vibration of the liquid slag is caused by the turn of the end of the flat tube. It mainly occurs in the part excluding the part.
 したがって、本実施例1は、円管や複数流路と同様に、ヒートパイプの長手方向に対する受熱部の温度分布が、ヒートパイプの長手方向の中央部に対して非対称となる特性を持たせる。これにより、加熱開始後、液体スラグが一方向に移動し、振動しやすい管中央部で液体スラグの変位が一方向に揃い、各液体スラグの運動を打ち消し合うことなく、発生した小さな振動が大きな振動に発展して自励振動が発生する。 Therefore, the first embodiment has a characteristic that the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion with respect to the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe is asymmetric with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe, as in the case of the circular pipe and the plurality of flow paths. As a result, after the start of heating, the liquid slag moves in one direction, the displacement of the liquid slag is aligned in one direction at the center of the tube, which is prone to vibration, and the small vibration generated is large without canceling the movement of each liquid slag. It develops into vibration and self-excited vibration is generated.
 次に、本発明の実施例2~5の構成および効果等について示す。その際に、実施例2~5においては、実施例1と異なる部分を説明し、実施例1と重複する部分の説明を省略する。 Next, the configurations and effects of Examples 2 to 5 of the present invention will be shown. At that time, in Examples 2 to 5, the parts different from those in the first embodiment will be described, and the description of the parts overlapping with the first embodiment will be omitted.
 図9は、本発明の実施例2に係る自励振動ヒートパイプ冷却装置100aの構造を示す側面図である。
 実施例2に係る自励振動ヒートパイプ冷却装置100aは、複数個の発熱体11aをヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称に配置するものである。図9では、2個の発熱体11aを配置した場合を示している。
FIG. 9 is a side view showing the structure of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe cooling device 100a according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
In the self-excited vibration heat pipe cooling device 100a according to the second embodiment, a plurality of heating elements 11a are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe 12. FIG. 9 shows a case where two heating elements 11a are arranged.
 このように、実施例2においても、先の実施例1と同様に、ヒートパイプの長手方向に対する受熱部9の温度分布が、片側端部で高く、ヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称となる特性を持つため、自励振動が発生し始動性に優れる。 As described above, also in the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion 9 with respect to the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe is high at one end and with respect to the central portion in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe 12. Since it has the characteristic of being asymmetrical, self-excited vibration is generated and it is excellent in startability.

FIG. 10 is a side view showing the structure of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe cooling device 100b according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
The self-excited oscillating heat pipe cooling device 100b according to the third embodiment has a smaller number of fins 13a closest to one end 3 in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe 12. As a result, heat dissipation at one end is suppressed and the temperature at one end rises.
 このように、実施例3においても、ヒートパイプの長手方向に対する受熱部9の温度分布が、ヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称となる特性を持つため、自励振動が発生し始動性に優れる。 As described above, also in the third embodiment, the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion 9 with respect to the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe has a characteristic of being asymmetrical with respect to the central portion of the heat pipe 12 in the longitudinal direction, so that self-excited vibration occurs.

FIG. 11 is a side view showing the structure of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe cooling device 100c according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention.
The self-excited oscillating heat pipe cooling device 100c according to the fourth embodiment is provided with a heat insulating member 14 in a part of the heat radiating portion 20 of the heat pap 12 closest to one end 3 in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe 12. As a result, heat dissipation at one end is suppressed and the temperature at one end rises.
 ここで、放熱部20の一部に断熱部材14を設けるための手法は、限定されるものではない。例えば、図11では、断熱部材14を放熱部20の一部に貼り付ける手法を用いたものである。
 このように、実施例4においても、ヒートパイプの長手方向に対する受熱部9の温度分布が、ヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称となる特性を持つため、自励振動が発生し始動性に優れる。
Here, the method for providing the heat insulating member 14 in a part of the heat radiating portion 20 is not limited. For example, in FIG. 11, a method of attaching the heat insulating member 14 to a part of the heat radiating portion 20 is used.
As described above, also in the fourth embodiment, since the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion 9 with respect to the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe has a characteristic of being asymmetrical with respect to the central portion of the heat pipe 12 in the longitudinal direction, self-excited vibration occurs. Excellent startability.
 図12は、本発明の実施例5に係る自励振動ヒートパイプ冷却装置100dの構造を示す側面図である。
 実施例5に係る自励振動ヒートパイプ冷却装置100dは、ヒートパイプ12の一方の端部3側の受熱部材10aの端部の長さを短くして、ヒートパイプ12の長手方向の両端部それぞれに対応する受熱部材10aの両端部それぞれの長さが異なるものである。これにより、片側端部での熱抵抗が増加し片側端部の温度が高くなる。
FIG. 12 is a side view showing the structure of the self-excited oscillating heat pipe cooling device 100d according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention.
In the self-excited vibration heat pipe cooling device 100d according to the fifth embodiment, the length of the end portion of the heat receiving member 10a on the one end portion 3 side of the heat pipe 12 is shortened, and both ends of the heat pipe 12 in the longitudinal direction are respectively shortened. The lengths of both ends of the heat receiving member 10a corresponding to the above are different. As a result, the thermal resistance at one end increases and the temperature at one end rises.
 このように、実施例5においても、ヒートパイプの長手方向に対する受熱部9の温度分布が、ヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称となる特性を持つため、自励振動が発生し始動性に優れる。 As described above, also in the fifth embodiment, since the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion 9 with respect to the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe has a characteristic of being asymmetrical with respect to the central portion of the heat pipe 12 in the longitudinal direction, self-excited vibration occurs. Excellent startability.
 図13は、本発明の実施例6に係る自励振動ヒートパイプ冷却装置100eの構造を示す側面図である。

As a result, the amount of heat received at one end increases and the temperature rises.
 ここで、上記した受熱部の面積を広くするための手法は、限定されるものではない。例えば、図13では、ヒートパイプ12の長手方向の一方の端部3の受熱部9bに、受熱部材10に設けた突起部10bをロウ付け等で接合することにより、一方の端部3の受熱面積を増加させている。 Here, the method for increasing the area of the heat receiving portion described above is not limited. For example, in FIG. 13, the heat receiving portion 9b of one end portion 3 in the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe 12 is joined to the heat receiving portion 10b provided on the heat receiving member 10 by brazing or the like to receive heat of the one end portion 3. The area is increasing.
 このように、実施例5においても、ヒートパイプの長手方向に対する受熱部9の温度分布が、ヒートパイプ12の長手方向の中央部に対して非対称となる特性を持つため、自励振動が発生し始動性に優れる。 As described above, also in the fifth embodiment, since the temperature distribution of the heat receiving portion 9 with respect to the longitudinal direction of the heat pipe has a characteristic of being asymmetrical with respect to the central portion of the heat pipe 12 in the longitudinal direction, self-excited vibration occurs.
