Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of water-cooled plates, and specifically to a heat exchange copper tube assembly and a water-cooled plate. Background Art
[0002] A water-cooled plate, also known as a water-cooled radiator, a liquid-cooled plate, etc., uses water or a medium such as (antifreeze, ethanol) to reduce the temperature of the device, enabling the device to work more efficiently.
[0003] In the prior art, the process principle of the water-cooled plate: the water-cooled radiator has a water inlet and a water outlet, and there are multiple water channels inside the water-cooled plate, which can give full play to the advantages of water cooling and can carry more heat; among them, the coolant in the water channels inside the water-cooled plate is replenished by connecting the circulating water pipes through heat exchange copper tubes.
