[0079] (3) The heat transfer structures 40 of the present embodiment are substantially rectangular and arranged in parallel to each other, each heat transfer structure 40 is separated from each other and uniformly distributed in the entire evaporation zone EZone; but the present application is not limited thereto, in other embodiments, the heat transfer structures 40 can be arranged in a non-parallel manner, such as radiating, crossing, or other ways connecting several first support structures 30; the arrangement of the heat transfer structures 40 is used to enhance the strength of the first support structure 30, while increasing the heat transfer surface of the evaporation zone EZone;

[0081] (5) The gas-liquid separation structure 205 of the present embodiment is a metal foil, which can be a copper foil, and is attached to the planar area of the third capillary 203 in the transmission zone TZone by high-temperature sintering; since the transmission zone TZone of the present embodiment is arranged on both sides of the evaporation zone EZone, the number of gas-liquid separation structures 205 is 2, but the present application is not limited thereto; in other embodiments, the number and position of the gas-liquid separation structure 205 can be adjusted according to the specific arrangement of the transmission zone TZone;

[0083] Please refer to Figure 5 . Figure 5 is a longitudinal sectional view of the heat dissipation device of the present application. As Figure 5The direction of the dashed arrow shows the flow direction of the gas formed after the evaporation zone absorbs heat, and the direction of the solid arrow shows the flow direction of the condensed liquid. The following will be described in combination with Figure 5 The working process of the heat dissipation device will be described in detail. After the evaporation zone EZone absorbs heat from the second inner surface 21 of the lower cover 20 corresponding to the external heat source (not shown), the working liquid is vaporized into gas through the first capillary 201 attached to the second inner surface 21 of the lower cover 20, the second capillary 202 attached to the first support structure 30 and the heat transfer structure 40, and the third capillary 203 in the evaporation zone EZone. This vaporization process generates a local high pressure, and the gas flows to the condensation zone CZone under the action of the pressure; the gas is cooled in the condensation zone CZone and condensed into liquid through the upper cover capillary 101 attached to the upper cover 10, thereby releasing and transferring heat to the condensation zone CZone; the condensed liquid returns through the third capillary 203 attached to the second support structure 50 and the third inner surface 22 of the lower cover 20 in the transmission zone TZone, and the fourth capillary 204 attached to the third capillary 203, and finally returns to the evaporation zone EZone to continue the cycle of heat transfer of the gas-liquid two-phase change; in this process, the gas-liquid separation structure 205 attached to the planar area of the third capillary 203 in the transmission zone TZone is used to separate the gas formed in the evaporation zone EZone from the condensed liquid returning in the transmission zone TZone, so that they do not interfere with each other.
[0084] Further explanation: the capillary thickness of the first capillary 201 is less than or equal to the capillary thickness of the second capillary 202, and both the first capillary 201 and the second capillary 202 have strong capillary force, that is, both have large heat transfer capacity, which can quickly vaporize the working liquid in the evaporation zone EZone to quickly absorb heat from the heat source (not shown) for heat transfer; the capillary force of the third capillary 203 is smaller than that of the first capillary 201, the capillary thickness of the third capillary 203 is greater than that of the first capillary 201, and the permeability of the third capillary 203 is greater than that of the first capillary 201 and the second capillary 202, so that the third capillary 203 can absorb more liquid and the return resistance of the liquid is smaller, so that the condensed liquid can quickly return; the capillary thickness of the fourth capillary 204 is greater than that of the third capillary 203, and the permeability of the fourth capillary 204 is greater than that of the third capillary 203, and the dispersed fourth capillary 204 as a return enhancement structure can further accelerate the return of the condensed liquid. By arranging the composite capillary structure, the advantages of different capillary structures are fully utilized, so that the working liquid in the heat dissipation device quickly and fully participates in the cycle of heat transfer of the gas-liquid two-phase change; by arranging the gas-liquid separation structure in the transmission zone TZone, the return resistance of the condensed liquid is reduced, so that more condensed liquid returns to the evaporation zone EZone faster, and the heat transfer performance of the heat dissipation device is improved.
[0085] Please refer to Figure 6a 、 Figure 6b . Figure 6a is a schematic diagram of the effective wetted capillary cross-sectional area of the prior art, Figure 6b is a schematic diagram of the effective wetted capillary cross-sectional area of the present application. The heat transfer power Q of the heat dissipation device can be theoretically calculated by the following formula:
[0086]
[0087] In the above formula,
[0088] A wick : effective wetted capillary cross-sectional area, k wick : capillary permeability, p1: working fluid density; σ: working fluid surface tension; λ: latent heat of working fluid; r c : capillary radius; L Effec灄ive : effective length; μ1: working fluid viscosity.
[0089] As can be seen from the above formula, under the condition that other parameters remain unchanged, the size of the effective wetted capillary cross-sectional area A wick directly affects the level of the heat transfer power Q of the heat dissipation device. The larger the effective wetted capillary cross-sectional area A wick , the higher the heat transfer power Q. As shown in Figure 6a 、 Figure 6b , the gas formed after the evaporation zone absorbs heat shares a vacuum chamber with the condensed liquid backflowing in the transmission zone through the capillary structure, and the steam occupies part of the space on the surface of the capillary structure; while the present application has a gas-liquid separation structure 205 attached to the surface of the capillary structure, which can block the steam from occupying the space of the capillary structure; thus, the effective wetted capillary cross-sectional area A 2-wick of the present application is larger than the effective wetted capillary cross-sectional area A 1-wick of the prior art, which can make more condensed liquid backflow in the capillary structure of the transmission zone, thereby making more condensed liquid backflow to the evaporation zone, keeping the evaporation zone wet to generate a larger heat flux, and improving the heat transfer performance of the heat dissipation device.
[0090] Please refer to Figure 7a 、 Figure 7b . Figure 7a is a schematic diagram of the steam cross-sectional area at the gas-liquid contact interface of the prior art, Figure 7b is a schematic diagram of the steam cross-sectional area at the gas-liquid contact interface of the present application. When the heat dissipation device is working, the gas flowing to the condensation zone after the evaporation zone absorbs heat shares a vacuum chamber with the condensed liquid backflowing in the transmission zone through the capillary structure, and the two phases interfere with each other, the shear stress acts on the gas-liquid contact interface, the condensed liquid on the surface of the capillary structure appears droplet scattering, and the resistance of the interfacial tension is increased, which affects the backflow of the condensed liquid to the evaporation zone. This influence is the scattering limit q at the gas-liquid contact interfaceEn灄rain This can be expressed as follows, and can be theoretically calculated using the following formula:
[0091]
[0092] In the above formula,
[0093] A vapor : Steam cross-sectional area; λ fg : Latent heat of working fluid; σ: Surface tension; ρ v : Steam density; r c : Capillary radius.
[0094] From the above formula, it can be seen that, with other parameters remaining unchanged, the steam cross-sectional area A vapor The size directly affects the scattering limit q En灄rain Size. Steam cross-sectional area A vapor The smaller the value, the greater the scattering limit q. En灄rain If the liquid becomes infinitely small, there will be no problem with droplets scattering, thus improving the heat transfer performance of the heat dissipation device. For example... Figure 7a , Figure 7b As shown, the existing technology does not include any structure at the gas-liquid interface to reduce the mutual interference between the gas and liquid phases, and its vapor cross-sectional area A 1-vapor A larger value means a larger scattering limit, and the condensate on the capillary surface will scatter as droplets, affecting the condensate return flow and greatly reducing the heat transfer performance of the heat dissipation device; however, this invention uses a gas-liquid separation structure 205 at the gas-liquid interface, increasing the vapor cross-sectional area A at the gas-liquid interface. 2-vapor The size becomes very small, which means that the scattering limit also becomes infinitely small. The condensate on the capillary surface will not have the problem of droplet scattering. The resistance at the gas-liquid interface is greatly reduced, which is conducive to the smooth return of the condensate to the evaporation zone to continue the cycle of heat transfer of gas-liquid two-phase change, and significantly improves the heat transfer performance of the heat dissipation device.
[0095] Please see Figure 8 . Figure 8 This is a comparison chart of the test results for the thermal resistance performance of the heat dissipation devices. The heat transfer performance of a heat dissipation device is commonly expressed by thermal resistance; the lower the thermal resistance, the stronger the heat transfer performance. The test samples were a conventional composite capillary structure heat dissipation device without a gas-liquid separation structure and the heat dissipation device of this invention with a gas-liquid separation composite capillary structure, used to verify the influence of the gas-liquid separation structure on the thermal resistance performance. The thermal resistance performance test was conducted under the test conditions shown in the table below:
[0096]
[0097]
[0098] like Figure 8The test results of the thermal resistance performance show that the heat dissipation device with the gas-liquid separation composite capillary structure has a significantly reduced thermal resistance, that is, the heat transfer performance is significantly improved by about 20% to 25%, compared with the conventional composite capillary structure without the gas-liquid separation structure.
[0099] In summary, the heat dissipation device provided by the application utilizes the advantages of different capillary structures by arranging the composite capillary structure, so that the working liquid in the heat dissipation device rapidly and fully participates in the cyclic heat transfer of the gas-liquid two-phase change; the arrangement of the gas-liquid separation structure in the transmission area improves the effective wetting capillary sectional area and greatly reduces the scattering phenomenon of the condensed liquid at the gas-liquid contact interface, so that the gas flowing from the evaporation area to the condensation area and the condensed liquid flowing back to the evaporation area do not interfere with each other, more condensed liquid flows back to the evaporation area faster, the evaporation speed of the working liquid in the evaporation area is effectively improved, and the heat transfer performance of the heat dissipation device is significantly improved in a limited space.
