Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of downhole tools, in particular to a device and method for cooling semiconductor devices of downhole tools. Background technique [0002] Oil and gas wells are drilled to depths of hundreds to thousands of meters. Logging and drilling equipment usually contains various sensors, instrumentation and controls in order to perform any possible downhole operations. These downhole operations may include performing well logging, fluid analysis, and equipment monitoring. [0003] Due to vibration, harsh chemicals, and temperature, the downhole environment poses a great challenge to maintaining the operation of downhole tools deep downhole. Among them, the temperature has brought great challenges to the application of downhole tools. Downhole temperatures may reach 392°F (200°C) or higher, making it difficult to operate sensitive electronic components in the downhole environment. The space on the downhole carrier is usually...
