[0046] Figure 1 is a partial component perspective view of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 is a schematic view of an immersion cooling system according to the embodiment of the present application. Please refer to Figure 1 , the electronic device 10 according to the embodiment of the present application comprises a plurality of heat generating components 12 (shown in Figure 1 ) and an immersion cooling system 100. The immersion cooling system 100, as shown in Figure 2 , comprises two main tank bodies 110 and a condensing structure 120. The main tank bodies 110 are adapted to contain a heat dissipation medium M (indicated in Figure 2 ), and the heat generating components 12 are arranged in the main tank bodies 110 and immersed in the heat dissipation medium M. The liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M is controlled to be, for example, about 2-3 mm higher than the heat generating components 12. The condensing structure 120 is arranged above the main tank bodies 110. In other embodiments, the number of main tank bodies 110 can be one or other appropriate number, which is not limited by the present application. For the sake of clarity of the drawings, Figure 1 only one main tank body 110 is shown. Figure 2 Figure 2 In the embodiment, a cover can be used to cover the immersion cooling system 100 and seal the containing space of the immersion cooling system 100, so that the heat dissipation medium M performs the above-mentioned circulation in the sealed containing space. Moreover, the cover can be opened to facilitate the maintenance of the electronic device 10 or the disassembly and replacement of components.

[0047] In the embodiment, a cover can be used to cover the immersion cooling system 100 and seal the containing space of the immersion cooling system 100, so that the heat dissipation medium M performs the above-mentioned circulation in the sealed containing space. Moreover, the cover can be opened to facilitate the maintenance of the electronic device 10 or the disassembly and replacement of components.

[0048] ​The heat dissipation medium M is, for example, a dielectric liquid at room temperature, such as a fluorinated liquid having a boiling point of 40-60°C or other suitable heat dissipation medium, without being limited thereto. The liquid heat dissipation medium M absorbs heat generated by a central processing unit or other types of chips on the heat generating component 12, such as a motherboard in a server, to reduce the temperature of the heat generating component 12, and is rapidly vaporized into a gaseous state by the heat generated by the heat generating component 12. The gaseous heat dissipation medium M with high heat energy flows to the condensing structure 120 in the closed accommodating space, and is cooled and condensed into a liquid state on the condensing structure 120 by the low-temperature condensing liquid flowing in the condensing structure 120. The condensing liquid in the condensing structure 120 absorbs heat energy from the heat dissipation medium M, flows to the outside of the electronic device 10 for heat exchange and cooling, and then flows back to the condensing structure 120 for continuous circulation. On the other hand, the liquid drops of the heat dissipation medium M condensed on the condensing structure 120 fall back into the liquid heat dissipation medium M in the main tank body 110 by gravity, thereby achieving the effect of heat dissipation through circulation.

[0049] The electronic device 10 of the present embodiment further comprises a liquid level adjusting module 130. The liquid level adjusting module 130 is used to adjust the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank body 110, so that the liquid level is not too high or too low. Therefore, the liquid level adjusting module can also be referred to as a liquid level height adjusting module. The liquid level adjusting module 130 of the present embodiment is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0050] Figure 3 is a partial component perspective view of the immersion cooling system of Figure 1 . Figure 4 is a perspective view of the liquid level adjusting module of Figure 3 . Figure 5 is a partial component side view of the liquid level adjusting module of Figure 4 . Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 , the liquid level adjusting module 130 comprises an auxiliary tank body 132, a pump 134 and a pipeline 138. The auxiliary tank body 132 is arranged between the two main tank bodies 110 and abuts the two main tank bodies 110, so that the heat dissipation medium M (indicated by Figure 2 ) in each main tank body 110 can overflow into the auxiliary tank body 132. The auxiliary tank body 132 is fixed between the two main tank bodies 110 by, for example, welding, locking or other suitable means. The pump 134 is arranged in the auxiliary tank body 132, and the pipeline 138 is connected to the pump 134 and extends to the main tank body 110. The pump 134 is adapted to drive the heat dissipation medium in the auxiliary tank body 132 to refill into the main tank body 110 through the pipeline 138, so as to adjust the liquid level height of the heat dissipation medium in the main tank body 110. In this way, when the heat dissipation medium in the main tank body 110 expands or contracts due to heat, the heat dissipation medium in the main tank body 110 escapes, or the heat generating component 12 (indicated by Figure 2When the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium in the main tank 110 is lowered due to the removal or other factors of the heat generating components 12, the liquid level adjusting module 130 can immediately adjust the amount of the heat dissipation medium in the main tank 110 to the normal value, so that the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium in the main tank 110 will not be too low or too high.

[0051] In the present embodiment, the auxiliary tank 132 is used to adjust the amount of the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110, instead of being used to accommodate the heat generating components 12, so the volume of the auxiliary tank 132 can be designed to be smaller than that of the main tank 110. Also, the volume of the auxiliary tank 132 is designed to be, for example, not less than the volume of the heat generating components 12, so that the maximum amount of the heat dissipation medium M that the auxiliary tank 132 can accommodate is sufficient to compensate for the amount of the liquid level drop caused by the removal of the heat generating components 12 from the main tank 110. In addition, the proportion of thermal expansion and contraction of the heat dissipation medium M can also be considered as a factor in determining the volume of the auxiliary tank 132, so as to ensure that the liquid level adjusting module 130 can effectively adjust the amount of the heat dissipation medium in the main tank 110 through the heat dissipation medium in the auxiliary tank 132.

[0052] Figures 6A to 6D The liquid level adjusting module adjusts the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium in the main tank. Specifically, when a heat generating component 12 is removed from the main tank 110 as shown in Figure 2 , the pump 134 drives the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 to flow into the main tank 110, so that the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 will not be lowered due to the removal of the heat generating component 12. In this process, part of the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 flows into the main tank 110, so that the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 is lowered. Figure 6A On the contrary, when a heat generating component 12 is placed into the main tank 110 as shown in

[0053] , since the height of the side wall of the main tank 110 is only slightly higher than the top end of the heat generating component 12 in it by about 2-3 mm, the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 will overflow into the auxiliary tank 132, so that the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 will not be raised due to the placement of the heat generating component 12. In this process, the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 increases, so that the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 is raised. Figure 6B On the other hand, when the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 evaporates as shown in

[0054] , the pump 134 drives the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 to flow into the main tank 110, so that the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 will not be lowered due to its evaporation. In this process, part of the heat dissipation medium in the auxiliary tank 132 flows into the main tank 110, so that the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium in the auxiliary tank 132 is lowered. Figure 6C

[0055] ​In addition, when the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 is as follows Figure 6D During the thermal expansion shown, since the height of the sidewall of the main tank 110 is only slightly higher than the top of the heating element 12 inside it by about 2 to 3 millimeters, the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 will overflow into the auxiliary tank 132, preventing the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 from rising due to thermal expansion. During this process, the amount of heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 increases, causing the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 to rise.

[0056] like Figure 5 and Figures 6A to 6D As shown, in this embodiment, the pump 134 is disposed at the bottom of the auxiliary tank 132. Since the temperature of the heat dissipation medium M at the bottom of the auxiliary tank 132 is low, the pump 134 disposed there can avoid a reduction in service life due to high temperature. The configuration of the pump 134 in this embodiment will be specifically described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] Figure 7 yes Figure 4 An exploded view of some components of the liquid volume regulation module. Figure 8 yes Figure 7 An exploded view of some components of the liquid volume regulation module. Please refer to... Figure 7 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, the liquid volume adjustment module 130 includes a guide rail 136. The guide rail 136 is disposed within a frame 137 in an auxiliary tank 132. A pump 134 is connected to the guide rail 136 and is adapted to move along the guide rail 136 towards the top of the auxiliary tank 132 to facilitate maintenance or replacement of the pump 134. Specifically, the pump 134 is mounted on a fixing part 135a of a support 135. The support 135 is assembled onto a slider 136a on the guide rail 136, allowing the support 135 and the pump 134 thereon to slide up and down along the guide rail 136 with the slider 136a. Furthermore, a cable 133 can be connected to the support 135, allowing the user to easily pull the support 135 and the pump 134 thereon to the top of the auxiliary tank 132 using the cable 133. In other embodiments, the pump 134 can be installed in other suitable ways, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0058] The liquid volume regulating module 130 of this embodiment also includes a filter 139. The filter 139 is connected to the pump 134 via a pipe 138. The pump 134 is adapted to drive the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132 through the filter 139 and flow into the main tank 110. This effectively reduces impurities in the heat dissipation medium M, thus maintaining its heat dissipation capacity. Furthermore, the liquid volume regulating module 130 of this embodiment... Figure 5 and Figure 7The pressure gauge 131 is connected to the pipe 138 between the pump 134 and the filter 139 by a three-way pipe 131a (indicated by the arrow in FIG. 1) in this embodiment. Figure 5 ) in this embodiment.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 4 The liquid level sensor 130a is arranged in the auxiliary tank 132 to sense the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium M in the auxiliary tank 132, so as to determine whether the amount of the heat dissipation medium M is sufficient. Thus, the liquid level sensor does not need to be arranged in the main tank 110, and the liquid level sensing is not affected by the boiling fluctuation of the heat dissipation medium M in the main tank 110 due to the high temperature of the heat generating component 12.

[0060] In summary, the liquid amount adjusting module is added to the main tank of the immersion cooling system according to the present application. The auxiliary tank of the liquid amount adjusting module can receive the overflow of the heat dissipation medium from the main tank, and the pump of the liquid amount adjusting module can drive the heat dissipation medium in the auxiliary tank to flow into the main tank. Thus, when the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium in the main tank fluctuates due to thermal expansion and contraction, evaporation, or the placement of the heat generating component in the main tank, the liquid amount adjusting module can immediately adjust the amount of the heat dissipation medium in the main tank to a normal value, so that the liquid level does not become too low or too high. In addition, the filter and the liquid level sensor can be arranged in the liquid amount adjusting module according to the present application, so that the filter and the liquid level sensor can be used to filter impurities and sense the liquid level of the heat dissipation medium without occupying the internal space of the main tank.
