其中,信息通信设备可以是信息和通信技术领域中的设备,可以简称ICT(Information Communications Technology)设备,是可插拔设备所插入的设备。例如,可插拔设备为光模块,那么所插的信息通信设备可以为光通信设备,如交换机、接入点(Access Point,AP)设备和路由器等。又例如,可插拔设备为可插拔硬盘,那么所插的信息通信设备可以是计算机设备和刀片服务器等。其中,本实施例对信息通信设备的具体产品也不做限定,可以是供上述可插拔设备插入的任意设备。
可插拔设备在工作中会产生热量,本方案利用液冷散热技术,为可插拔设备散热,能够增强为可插拔设备进行散热的效果。
例如,可插拔设备为光模块,光模块是一种进行光信号和电信号转换的部件,在光纤通信中配合光通信设备使用,例如,光模块的一端插在光通信设备的接口部件(接口部件也可以称为光笼子)中,光模块的另一端供光缆的光纤连接头插入。而光模块在工作中会产生热量,利用液冷散热技术,为光模块散热,能够增强为光模块进行散热的效果。
为便于介绍本方案,首先介绍液冷散热技术,如图1所示,液冷散热技术中包括液冷件4和液冷散热件5,液冷件4和液冷散热件5之间通过管道连接,形成闭合的循环回路,液体在该循环回路中流动,以达到降温效果,其中图1中的箭头为液体在循环回路中的一种可能的流动方向。其中,液冷件4用于吸收发热元件3的热量,液冷散热件5用于促使液体在液冷件4和液冷散热件5之间流通,还能用于降低液体的温度等。
本方案中将液冷散热技术应用在可插拔设备中,为可插拔设备散热,可插拔设备如光模块的体积较小,液冷件4可以位于可插拔设备的壳体中,与可插拔设备内部的发热元件接触,以吸收发热元件的热量,而液冷散热件5可以位于可插拔设备的壳体外,例如,可以位于可插拔设备所插的信息通信设备中,也可以位于可插拔设备所插的信息通信设备所在的机房中。下面将详细介绍本方案。
如图2所示,该可插拔设备100包括壳体1、线路板2、发热元件3和液冷件4。线路板2、发热元件3和液冷件4依次叠加位于壳体1中,示例性地,发热元件3位于线路板2的表面,液冷件4位于发热元件3的远离线路板2的表面。液冷件4具有两个管接头41,两个管接头41均固定于壳体1的壳壁,被配置为分别与液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52相连。
其中,发热元件3可以是可插拔设备100在运行中,能产生较多热量的元器件。
例如,发热元件3可以是可插拔设备100的主功能器件、控制芯片和电源管理件中的至少一种。其中,主功能器件是可插拔设备实现其主要功能的器件,例如,可插拔设备为光模块,那么功能器件可以为光器件,用于实现光信号和电信号的转换。
示例性地,发热元件3可以是主功能器件,也可以是控制芯片,还可以是电源管理件。又示例性地,发热元件3可以是包括主功能器件和控制芯片的组件,也可以是包括主功能器件和电源管理件的组件,还可以是包括控制芯片和电源管理件的组件。又示例性地,发热元件3可以是包括主功能器件、控制芯片和电源管理件的组件。
其中,本实施例对发热元件3不做限定,可以根据可插拔设备中各个元器件的工作功率确定,例如,将工作功率高于设定阈值的元器件确定为发热元件。为便于介绍,可以以如图2所示的发热元件3为包括主功能器件、控制芯片和电源管理件的组件进行示例。
其中,液冷件4是一种能够吸收发热元件3产生的热量的部件。
在一种示例中,液冷件4位于发热元件3的远离线路板2的表面,为了促使液冷件4能够快速吸收发热元件3的热量,相应的,液冷件4和发热元件3之间紧密贴合。
为了进一步减少液冷件4和发热元件3之间的接触热阻,相应的,液冷件4和发热元件3之间可以填充热界面材料(Thermal Interface Material,TIM),以减少液冷件4和发热元件3之间的接触热阻,加快液冷件4和发热元件3之间的热传递。
其中,热界面材料可以是硅脂、硅胶、散热垫片、相变化材料、相变化金属片或者导热胶等。
在一种示例中,液冷件4可以是具有板状结构的液冷板,例如,液冷件4的结构可以参考图3所示,包括基板42、热管43和两个管接头41。基板42是能够吸收热量的板状结构,在材质上可以是铝基板,也可以是铜基板等热导率比较高的金属板。热管43是能够吸收热量的管状结构,在材质上可以是铜管,也可以是铝管等热导率比较高的金属管。热管43位于基板42中,或者,热管43铺设在基板42的表面等,本实施例对热管43和基板42之间的固定方式不做限定。热管43的两端均安装有管接头41,两个管接头41被配置为分别与液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52相连。
其中,排液管接头51也是一种管接头,液冷散热件5排出的液体由此通过,故称为排液管接头。
同样,进液管接头52也是一种管接头,进入到液冷散热件5的液体由此通过,故称为进液管接头。
在另一种示例中,液冷件4也可以是具有管状结构的液冷管,液冷管的两端均安装有管接头41。其中,本实施例对液冷件4的具体结构不做限定,能够用来吸收发热元件3的热量即可,附图中可以以板状结构的液冷件4进行示例。
为了使液冷件4的管接头41能够与位于可插拔设备外部的液冷散热件5相连,相应的, 管接头41固定于可插拔设备的壳体1的壳壁上,例如,管接头41的朝外的端部与壳体1的壳壁齐平,又例如,管接头41的朝外的端部伸出于壳体1。
关于液冷件4的两个管接头41的位置,液冷件4的两个管接头41可以均位于壳体1的靠近可插拔设备100的外露端的位置处,可插拔设备的外露端为可插拔设备插入信息通信设备时伸出于信息通信设备的端部。
例如,可插拔设备为光模块,如图4所示,光模块沿着长度方向的两端分别具有光接口8和电接口9,光接口8所在的端部记为光模块的外露端,电接口9所在的端部记为光模块的插入端。其中,光接口8用于供光纤连接头插入,电接口9用于插入光通信设备的光笼子中。
那么,液冷件4的两个管接头41可以均位于壳体1的靠近光模块的光接口8的位置处。其中,靠近光模块的光接口8的位置可以是,光模块插入光通信设备后,光模块的伸出于光通信设备面板的任意位置。
关于液冷件4的两个管接头41的位置,液冷件4的两个管接头41也可以均位于壳体1的靠近可插拔设备100的插入端的位置处,可插拔设备的插入端为可插拔设备插入信息通信设备时伸入于信息通信设备内部的端部。例如,可插拔设备为光模块,液冷件4的两个管接头41均位于壳体1的靠近光模块的电接口9的位置处。
关于液冷件4的两个管接头41的位置,液冷件4的一个管接头41可以位于壳体1的靠近可插拔设备的外露端的位置处,液冷件4的另一个管接头41可以位于壳体1的靠近可插拔设备的插入端的位置处。
当然,液冷件的两个管接头41也可以位于可插拔设备的外露端和插入端之间的位置处。
其中,本实施例对液冷件4的两个管接头41在壳体1的具体位置不做限定,可以根据液冷散热件和信息通信设备之间的关系灵活选择。
例如,液冷散热件5位于可插拔设备所插的信息通信设备的外部,如液冷散热件5位于信息通信设备所在的机柜中,或者液冷散热件5位于信息通信设备所在的机房中。那么,液冷件4的两个管接头41可以位于可插拔设备的靠近外露端的位置处,以便于可插拔设备插入信息通信设备以后,两个管接头41外露,能够与位于信息通信设备外部的液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52相连。
又例如,液冷散热件5位于可插拔设备所插的信息通信设备中,且液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52位于信息通信设备的面板处。那么,液冷件4的两个管接头41可以位于可插拔设备的靠近外露端的位置处,以便于可插拔设备插入信息通信设备以后,两个管接头41外露,能够与位于信息通信设备面板处的排液管接头51和进液管接头52相连。
又例如,液冷散热件5位于可插拔设备所插的信息通信设备中,且液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52位于信息通信设备的内部。那么,液冷件4的两个管接头41可以位于可插拔设备的靠近其插入端的位置处,以便于可插拔设备插入信息通信设备以后,两个管接头41位于信息通信设备的内部,能够与位于信息通信设备内部的排液管接头51和进液管接头52相连。
其中,对于液冷件4的两个管接头41位于可插拔设备的靠近插入端的位置处的方案,可插拔设备可以集成在信息通信设备中。这样可插拔设备无需从信息通信设备中拔出,使得可插拔设备的两个管接头41分别与位于信息通信设备内部的排液管接头51和进液管接头52始终保持相连状态。
或者,可插拔设备依然是可插拔式,而位于信息通信设备内部的排液管接头51和进液管接头52的位置与信息通信设备的接口部件的位置相对应。当可插拔设备插入信息通信设备的接口部件中,且插到底时,可插拔设备的两个管接头41能够分别与位于信息通信设备内部的排液管接头51和进液管接头52相连。
其中,液冷散热件5是一种用于促使液体在液冷件4和液冷散热件5之间流通的部件。
参考图5所示,液冷散热件5包括排液管接头51、进液管接头52和水泵53。由于液体在液冷件4和液冷散热件5之间流通中会发生蒸发,相应的,液冷散热件5不仅包括排液管接头51、进液管接头52和水泵53,还包括水箱54,水箱54用于存储液体。
其中,水箱54中的液体可以是去离子水、电子氟化液、制冷剂中的一种。
如图5所示,水泵53和水箱54之间也可以通过连接管55相连,由于水泵53从水箱54中吸入液体,相应的,连接管55连接在水泵53的进液口和水箱54的出液口之间。排液管接头51可以直接安装在水泵53的出液口处,或者,如图5所示,排液管接头51也可以通过排液管56安装在水泵53的出液口处,示例性地,水泵53的出液口处安装有排液管56,排液管56的远离水泵53的出液口的端部安装有排液管接头51。
液冷散热件5的进液管接头52可以直接安装在水箱54的进液口处,或者,如图5所示,进液管接头52也可以通过进液管57安装在水箱54的进液口处,示例性地,水箱54的进液口处安装有进液管57,进液管57的远离水箱54的进液口的端部安装有进液管接头52。
在另一种示例中,为了快速降低流入液冷散热件5中的液体的温度,相应的,如图6所示,液冷散热件5还可以包括散热器58,散热器58位于水箱54的进液口和进液管接头52之间。示例性地,散热器58的进液口和进液管接头52直接相连,或者,散热器58的进液口和进液管接头52之间通过进液管57相连。散热器58的出液口和水箱54的进液口直接相连,或者,散热器58的出液口和水箱54的进液口之间通过连接管55相连。
其中,本实施例对液冷散热件5的具体结构不做限定,可以以如图5所示的结构进行示例。
如上述所述,液冷件4的两个管接头41分别与液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52相连,相应的,两个管接头41可以分别与液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52直接相连。或者,两个管接头41也可以分别与液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52通过管道相连,例如,如图7所示,一个管接头41和排液管接头51之间通过一根输液管10相连,另一个管接头41和进液管接头52之间通过一根输液管10相连。
其中,本实施例对液冷件4的管接头和液冷散热件5的管接头之间的具体连接方式不做限定,可以以如图7所示的,通过输液管10相连进行示例。
这样,液冷件4和液冷散热件5之间能够形成闭合的循环回路,液体在该循环回路中流动,为发热元件3散热。
在一种示例中,一个液冷散热件5可以为一个可插拔设备100进行散热,可以参见如图7所示。在另一种示例中,一个液冷散热件5也可以为多个可插拔设备100进行散热,这多个可插拔设备100可以并联在液冷散热件5上,这多个可插拔设备100的散热相互独立,或者,这多个可插拔设备100也可以串联在液冷散热件5上,这多个可插拔设备100的散热具有级联关系。例如,如图8所示,一个液冷散热件5为两个可插拔设备100散热,这两个可 插拔设备100并联在液冷散热件5上,两个可插拔设备100的散热相互独立。又例如,如图9所示,一个液冷散热件5为两个可插拔设备100散热,这两个可插拔设备100串联在液冷散热件5上,两个可插拔设备100的散热具有级联关系。
其中,本实施例对一个液冷散热件5为几个可插拔设备进行散热不做限定,可以根据实际需求灵活设置。
基于上述所述,可插拔设备的两个管接头41分别与液冷散热件5的排液管接头51和进液管接头52连接以后,液冷散热件5的水泵53运行,可以从水箱54中吸入低温液体,并将低温液体排入到液冷件4的热管43中,低温液体吸收液冷件4的热量而温度升高,温度升高的液体又流向水箱54中进行降温,降温后的液体再次被水泵53吸入。这样,液体在液冷件4和液冷散热件5之间循环流动,为液冷件4降温,以增大液冷件4和发热元件3之间的温差,而液冷件4与发热元件3接触,进而能够加快液冷件4和发热元件3之间的热量传递,进而增强为可插拔设备进行散热的效果。
而且,用于降温的液体在液冷件4和液冷散热件5之间循环流动,能够减少液体的浪费,节约资源。
