Embodiment Construction

[0087] figure 1 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a conventional cooling system, in particular an air-fluid heat exchanger known in the prior art, with a fan (3) and (here only schematically shown) a heat exchanger an exchange structure (2), wherein a fan (3) causes a first fluid (in this case air) to flow through the heat exchange structure (2), and the configuration of the heat exchange structure and its arrangement relative to the fan (3) define a second A fluid flow path (14) through the heat exchange structure to the fan opening.

[0088] The heat exchange structure (2) generally consists of an arrangement of tubes through which the second fluid flows and around which the first fluid flows. In this case, heat is exchanged between the first fluid and the second fluid via the material of the heat exchange structure (2). Usually, the heat exchange structure (2) is made of a good heat conducting material, such as aluminium.

[0089] In order to inc...

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention relates to a cooling system for an imaging apparatus having a gantry for cooling components arranged in the gantry, including a fan and a solid body. The solid body hasan inlet opening, and an outlet opening, wherein the inlet opening is larger than the outlet opening. The solid body also has a positive guide, defined by a continuous outer boundary, for a first fluid from the inlet opening to the outlet opening, which continuously transforms the geometry of the inlet opening into the geometry of the outlet opening and defines a flow path for the first fluid, andhas a flow channel for a second fluid, which is arranged in heat exchange communication with the flow path, and has an inlet and an outlet for the second fluid.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cooling system for an image forming apparatus having a chassis to cool components arranged in the chassis. The invention also relates to a frame with a cooling system and an imaging device. Background technique [0002] During operation of the imaging device, components arranged in the imaging device generate heat. For example, system components arranged on a rack of a computer tomography system generate heat of between 10 kW and 20 kW during operation. This heat must be removed in order to protect the components arranged in the rack. Typically, a cooling air supply is employed, wherein the heated (cooling) air is cooled again by a cooling system (eg an air-fluid heat exchanger). [0003] Typically, a conventional fluid-fluid heat exchanger (ie, an air-fluid heat exchanger) comprises a heat exchange structure made of a highly thermally conductive material, such as aluminum, and a fan that causes the fluid to be coo...
