Abstract

A heat exchange device includes a heat exchanger disposed in connection with at least one of a heat-dissipation electrode and a heat-absorption electrode, between which a plurality of thermoelectric elements is connected in series, via an insulating resin layer, which is composed of an epoxy resin or polyimide resin doped with fillers having high thermal conductivity, without intervention of a substrate. The heat exchanger corresponds to a plurality of corrugated fins which are constituted of a plurality of joint regions joining with one of the heat-dissipation electrode and heat-absorption electrode and a plurality of non-joint regions projecting externally from a plurality of gaps formed between the joint regions adjacently aligned together, wherein the joint regions and non-joint regions are alternately aligned. Thus, it is possible to achieve high reliability by reducing thermal resistance and thermal stress while increasing the maximum heat absorption coefficient (Qmax).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a heat exchange device comprising heat exchangers to which thermoelectric modules are connected in series between heat-dissipation electrodes and heat-absorption electrodes. thermoelectric elements. Background technique [0002] Conventionally known thermoelectric modules are designed such that different types of hotspot elements composed of P-type and N-type semiconductors are alternately arranged and connected in series between heat dissipating electrodes and heat absorbing electrodes via connecting metal such as solder. Various techniques have been developed to improve heat dissipation efficiency in thermoelectric modules, wherein a heat exchanger is for example coupled to a heat dissipating substrate or a heat absorbing substrate in order to form a heat exchange device. [0003] Various heat exchange devices have been developed and disclosed in various documents such as Patent Document 1. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japan...
