[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0041] Please see Figures 1-4 This application proposes a combined air-cooled and liquid-cooled electronic device heat dissipation device, comprising: a basic heat dissipation mechanism, which includes a condenser 1, a cooling fan 2, a refrigerant pipeline 3, and an evaporator-end liquid cooling plate 4; wherein the condenser 1 is connected to the cooling fan 2 and the refrigerant pipeline 3, one end of the refrigerant pipeline 3 is connected to the cooling fan 2, and the other end is connected to the evaporator-end liquid cooling plate 4; the evaporator-end liquid cooling plate 4 abuts against an electronic device 5 for heat dissipation; and a combined heat dissipation mechanism cooperating with the basic heat dissipation mechanism, which includes a combined heat pipe radiator 6, a combined microchannel cold plate radiator 7, a liquid storage tank 8, and a peristaltic pump 9; wherein the combined heat pipe radiator 6 and the combined microchannel cold plate radiator 7 are respectively connected to the evaporator-end liquid cooling plate 4 for heat dissipation of the electronic device 5, and the liquid storage tank 8 and the peristaltic pump 9 are disposed on the refrigerant pipeline 3 for adjusting the refrigerant flow rate in the refrigerant pipeline.

[0042] Specifically, the combined heat dissipation mechanism cooperating with the basic heat dissipation mechanism includes four combined forms, specifically including: a single combined heat pipe radiator 6 is combined with the basic heat dissipation mechanism to dissipate heat for the electronic device 5; and a single combined micro-channel cold plate radiator 7 is combined with the basic heat dissipation mechanism to dissipate heat for the electronic device 5; and the combined heat pipe radiator 6 is combined with the basic heat dissipation mechanism with a liquid storage tank 8 and a peristaltic pump 9 to dissipate heat for the electronic device 5; and the combined micro-channel cold plate radiator 7 is combined with the basic heat dissipation mechanism with a liquid storage tank 8 and a peristaltic pump 9 to dissipate heat for the electronic device 5.

[0043] It should be noted that the four combined forms correspond to different power consumption heat flux density combinations of the electronic device respectively, wherein the power consumption heat flux density combinations correspond to four combinations, and the electronic device includes a high-power chip. The embodiments of the present application will be described taking the high-power chip as an example.

[0044] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 , a structure schematic diagram of the single combined heat pipe radiator 6 combined with the basic heat dissipation mechanism is shown. Accordingly, Figure 1 , the power consumption heat flux density combination is the first power consumption heat flux density combination; as shown in Figure 3 , a structure schematic diagram of the single combined micro-channel cold plate radiator 7 combined with the basic heat dissipation mechanism is shown. Accordingly, Figure 3 , the power consumption heat flux density is the third power consumption heat flux density combination; wherein the power consumption value of the third power consumption heat flux density combination is greater than that of the first power consumption heat flux density combination.

[0045] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , a structure schematic diagram of the combined heat pipe radiator 6 combined with the basic heat dissipation mechanism with a liquid storage tank 8 and a peristaltic pump 9 is shown. Accordingly, Figure 2 , the power consumption heat flux density is the second power consumption heat flux density combination; as shown in Figure 4 , a structure schematic diagram of the combined micro-channel cold plate radiator 7 combined with the basic heat dissipation mechanism with a liquid storage tank 8 and a peristaltic pump 9 is shown. Accordingly, Figure 4 , the power consumption heat flux density is the fourth power consumption heat flux density combination; wherein the power consumption value of the fourth power consumption heat flux density combination is greater than that of the second power consumption heat flux density combination. At this point, the relationship of the four power consumption heat flux density combinations is: the power consumption value of the first power consumption heat flux density combination is less than that of the second power consumption heat flux density combination, the power consumption value of the second power consumption heat flux density combination is less than that of the third power consumption heat flux density combination, and the power consumption value of the third power consumption heat flux density combination is less than that of the fourth power consumption heat flux density combination.

[0046] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the invention, the air-cooled and liquid-cooled combined electronic device heat dissipation device further includes a temperature control sensor (not shown in the figure), wherein the temperature control sensor is used to monitor the refrigerant temperature in the refrigerant pipeline and adjust the refrigerant flow rate when the refrigerant temperature reaches a target temperature value, wherein the target temperature value is 90°C.

[0047] It should be noted that, since the above embodiments describe the peristaltic pump adjusting the refrigerant flow rate in the refrigerant pipeline using a liquid storage tank, specific adjustments can be made using a temperature control sensor. During application, the temperature control sensor monitors the refrigerant temperature in the refrigerant pipeline in real time. When the refrigerant temperature reaches 90°C, adjustments are required. At this time, the refrigerant flow rate in the refrigerant pipeline is increased to improve the heat dissipation performance for high-power chips.

[0048] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the invention, the peristaltic pump adopts an N+1 redundant structure to adjust the number of peristaltic pumps.

[0049] It should be noted that, Figure 2 and Figure 4 The peristaltic pump 9 used in the process adopts an N+1 redundant structure, so that the number of peristaltic pumps 9 can be increased as needed to better adapt to different heat dissipation requirements. For example, setting "3" peristaltic pumps 9 can increase the flow rate of refrigerant more quickly, thereby increasing the heat dissipation effect.

[0050] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the invention, the combined heat pipe radiator 6 and the combined microchannel cold plate radiator 7 are connected to the evaporation end liquid cooling plate 4 through a preset connecting mechanism and a thermally conductive interface material 10.

[0051] It should be noted that, as Figure 5 As shown, taking the combination of a single combined heat pipe radiator 6 and the basic heat dissipation mechanism as an example, the combined heat pipe radiator 6 is fastened by a bolt and nut fastening mechanism ( Figure 5 (Not shown in the figure) is connected to the evaporation end liquid cooling plate 4 in the basic heat dissipation mechanism, wherein the connection gap is filled with a thermally conductive interface material 10, which includes a thermally conductive phase change material.

[0052] In summary, this invention employs a combination of air cooling and liquid cooling, using different combinations for exchange chips with different power consumption and heat flux density. This significantly improves the overall heat dissipation effect, reduces chip temperature, and thus enhances chip temperature uniformity, avoiding deformation problems caused by uneven distribution of thermal stress in the chip.
