Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power module heat dissipation, and more specifically to a cooling oil rotary convergence type power module immersion heat dissipation structure. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous improvement of the power density of power modules, efficient cooling technology has become the key to their design and development. In order to solve the heat dissipation problem of power modules, domestic and foreign scholars and manufacturers have adopted single-sided and double-sided cooling technologies. Among them, single-sided cooling connects the bottom surface of the power semiconductor chip to an air-cooled or liquid-cooled radiator through a high thermal conductivity medium, so that the heat generated by the chip is transferred from its bottom surface to the radiator for dissipation; when using a double-sided heat dissipation structure, in addition to the bottom surface, the electrode on the top surface of the chip is also connected to the radiator through a high thermal conductivity medium. At this time, the heat generated by the chip can be dissipated from the bottom and top surfaces at the same time.

[0003] However, the single-sided and double-sided heat dissipation structures still have their own shortcomings: (1) For single-sided cooling, its advantage is that the structure is simple, but it can only achieve cooling of the bottom surface of the power semiconductor chip, and the heat dissipation efficiency is low. (2) Double-sided cooling can achieve simultaneous heat dissipation of the bottom and top surfaces of the power semiconductor chip, but on the one hand, it increases the total weight of the heat sink and is not conducive to improving the power density. On the other hand, the electrode area on the top surface of the chip is relatively small, and its heat transfer efficiency is relatively low, which is difficult to meet the actual heat dissipation requirements of high power density modules.

[0038] The bottom surface of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 is connected to the bottom wall 101, and the two sides of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 are respectively in contact with the third side wall 105 and the fourth side wall 106. The liquid-cooled radiator 2 has a flow channel arranged along the length direction of the housing 1, which is used to dissipate heat from the bottom surface of the power semiconductor chip 9; there is a gap between one end of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 close to the second side wall 104 and the second side wall 104, forming a turning area 13 for the cooling oil 7 to flow up and down;

Wherein, the connecting layer 3 is silicone grease, adhesive or welding layer 8.

[0041] In this embodiment, a partition 10 is provided between one end of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 close to the first side wall 103 and the first side wall 103, one end of the partition 10 is connected to the first side wall 103 between the first opening 11a and the second opening 11b, and the other end of the partition 10 is connected to the top of one end of the liquid-cooled radiator 2, and the two sides of the partition 10 are respectively connected to the third side wall 105 and the fourth side wall 106, and the partition 10 and the top surface of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 divide one side of the cavity into an upper channel and a lower channel, the flow channel of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 is located in the lower channel, and the substrate, the power semiconductor chip 9 and the drainage structure 12 are located in the upper channel.

[0042] like Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the drainage structure 12 includes a first busbar 12a and a second busbar 12b which are arranged on the substrate in the longitudinal direction, the first busbar 12a is located on a side close to the third side wall 105, the second busbar 12b is located on a side close to the fourth side wall 106, and the power semiconductor chip 9 is located between the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b;

[0043] The projections of the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b on the substrate are two arcs extending along the length direction of the housing 1 and axially symmetrically distributed, and along the flow direction of the cooling oil 7 (i.e., from the second side wall 104 to the first side wall 103), the distance between the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b gradually decreases from one end of the power semiconductor chip 9 to the other end of the power semiconductor chip 9;

[0044] A plurality of first guide plates 12c are provided on a surface of one side of the first busbar 12a facing the power semiconductor chip 9. The plurality of first guide plates 12c are spaced apart along the length direction of the housing 1. The first guide plates 12c extend longitudinally from the top of the first busbar 12a to the top of the first busbar 12a. One end of the first guide plate 12c is connected to the first busbar 12a, and the other end of the first guide plate 12c is inclined toward the downstream direction of the cooling oil 7.

[0045] A plurality of second guide plates 12d are provided on one side surface of the second busbar 12b facing the power semiconductor chip 9. The plurality of second guide plates 12d are spaced apart along the length direction of the shell 1. The second guide plates 12d extend longitudinally from the top of the first busbar to the top of the second busbar 12b. One end of the second guide plate 12d is connected to the second busbar 12b, and the other end of the second guide plate 12d is inclined toward the downstream direction of the flow of the cooling oil 7.

[0046] Preferably, the angle between the first guide plate 12c and the first busbar 12a (angle α in the figure) ranges from 30° to 60°, and the angle between the second guide plate 12d and the second busbar 12b is equal to the angle between the first guide plate 12c and the first busbar 12a.

[0047] In this embodiment, a plurality of first drain plates 12c and a plurality of second drain plates 12d are arranged opposite to each other, and the distance between the first drain plates 12c and the power semiconductor chip 9 is equal to the distance between the second drain plates 12d and the power semiconductor chip 9.

[0048] Further, in this embodiment, the height of the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b is greater than the thickness of the power semiconductor chip 9, and the length of the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b is greater than the length of the power semiconductor chip 9. There is a gap between the top of the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b and the top wall 102.

[0049] Specifically, the drainage structure 12 of this embodiment is designed to collect part of the cooling oil 7 in the upper channel to the surrounding of the power semiconductor chip 9 and increase the flow rate of the cooling oil 7 around the chip; at the same time, multiple drainage plates are tilted at a certain angle downstream of the flow direction of the cooling oil 7, and multiple drainage plates can make the cooling oil 7 flowing between the two manifolds further collect to the area where the chip is located, further increase the flow rate of the cooling oil 7 on the sides and top of the chip, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation effect on the top and sides of the chip. In addition, the drainage plates tilted toward the downstream direction of the cooling oil 7 can also prevent the cooling oil from flowing in the reverse direction, and enhance the circulation flow effect of the cooling oil in the housing 1. In addition, since the multiple first drainage plates 12c and the multiple second drainage plates 12d are opposite to each other and the distances between the first drainage plates 12c, the second drainage plates 12d and the power semiconductor chip 9 are equal, the flow rate and flow rate of the cooling oil 7 flowing through both sides of the power semiconductor chip 9 can be made the same, avoiding the generation of eddy currents or turbulence, and improving the circulation effect and heat dissipation effect of the cooling oil 7. Secondly, the height of the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b is greater than the thickness of the power semiconductor chip 9, and the length of the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b is greater than the length of the power semiconductor chip 9, which can ensure that the top surface and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9 are completely located in the drainage structure, ensuring that sufficient cooling oil flows through the top surface and side surfaces of the chip.

[0050] The cooling oil rotary convergence power module immersion heat dissipation structure of this embodiment adopts a structure with a partition 10 and cooling oil 7 entering from the bottom and exiting from the top. Specifically, the liquid cooling radiator 2 is installed on the inner bottom surface of the shell 1, and the lower copper layer 4 of the DBC substrate is connected to the liquid cooling radiator 2 through the connecting layer 3 (which can be silicone grease, adhesive or welding layer 8); the power semiconductor chip 9 is welded to the copper layer 6 on the DBC substrate through the welding layer 8; due to the existence of the DBC substrate ceramic layer 5, the power semiconductor chip 9 is electrically insulated from the liquid cooling radiator 2; the first opening 11a below the first side wall 103 at one end of the shell 1 is used as the cooling oil inlet, and the second opening 11b above the first side wall 103 is used as the cooling oil inlet. The oil 7 comes out, and the top surface of one end of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 close to the first side wall 103 is connected to the first side wall 103 through the partition 10, and the first opening 11a and the second opening 11b are respectively located on the lower side and the upper side of the partition 10. The partition 10 and the top surface of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 separate one side of the cavity in the shell 1 into an upper channel and a lower channel, thereby isolating the inlet and outlet oil channels; on the other side of the cavity in the shell 1, the interval area between the other end of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 and the second side wall 104 forms a turning area 13 for the cooling oil 7 from bottom to top.

[0051] In this embodiment, the circulation process of the cooling oil 7 in the shell 1 is as follows: the cooling oil 7 enters the shell 1 through the first opening 11a, and the inlet and outlet oil channels are isolated by the partition 10 on the inlet / outlet side. At this time, the cooling oil 7 first flows into the flow channel of the radiator to achieve heat dissipation on the bottom surface of the power semiconductor chip 9; after the cooling oil 7 flows out of the radiator, it turns upward in the reflux area on the other side of the cavity in the shell 1, and is gathered around the power semiconductor chip 9 through the action of the drainage structure 12, and flows through the top and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9 to achieve heat dissipation on the top and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9; and then flows out of the shell 1 through the second opening 11b at the top of the first side wall 103 of the shell 1.

[0052] The heat dissipation structure of this embodiment can simultaneously achieve heat dissipation of the bottom, top and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9, and the top surface area utilization rate is high, which can effectively improve the heat dissipation efficiency; at the same time, through the drainage structure 12 added on both sides of the power semiconductor chip 9, the cooling oil 7 is drained to the top and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9, effectively enhancing the heat dissipation effect on the semiconductor chip; secondly, the heat dissipation structure connects the cooling flow path in the liquid-cooled radiator 2 with the cooling oil 7 path around the chip in series, and all the cooling oil 7 is simultaneously involved in the heat dissipation of the radiator (bottom surface of the power semiconductor chip 9) and the top / side surface of the chip, thereby effectively ensuring high heat dissipation efficiency.

[0053] In other embodiments, the first busbar 12a and the second busbar 12b may also be connected to the top wall 102, and one end of the first busbar 12a close to the second side wall 103 is in contact with the third side wall 105, and one end of the second busbar 12b close to the second side wall 104 is in contact with the fourth side wall 106. In this case, the cooling oil 7 in the upper channel can be completely converged to the top and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9 through the drainage structure 12, thereby further enhancing the cooling effect.

[0054] Example 2

[0055] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a cooling oil rotary convergence power module immersion heat dissipation structure. The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, the second opening 11b located at the top of the first side wall 103 at one end of the housing 1 is used as the cooling oil inlet, and the first opening 11a located at the bottom of the first side wall 103 is used as the cooling oil outlet, that is, the cooling oil 7 rotates from top to bottom, that is, a structure with a partition 10 and cooling oil 7 entering from top and exiting from bottom is adopted. Accordingly, as Figure 4 As shown, the drainage structure 12 in this embodiment is the same as the drainage structure 12 in Embodiment 1, but in the opposite direction, that is, the distance between the first collector plate 12a and the second collector plate 12b gradually decreases along the flow direction of the cooling oil 7 (from the first side wall 103 to the second side wall 104). The rest of the structure is exactly the same as that in Embodiment 1.

[0056] In this embodiment, the circulation process of the cooling oil 7 in the shell 1 is as follows: the cooling oil 7 enters the shell 1 through the second opening 11b, and the inlet and outlet oil channels are isolated by the partition 10 on the inlet / outlet side. At this time, the cooling oil 7 is first gathered around the power semiconductor chip 9 by the drainage structure 12, flows through the top surface and side surface of the power semiconductor chip 9, and realizes the heat dissipation of the top surface and side surface of the power semiconductor chip 9, and then turns downward in the reflux area on the other side of the cavity in the shell 1, and flows into the flow channel of the radiator to realize the heat dissipation of the bottom surface of the power semiconductor chip 9; after the cooling oil 7 flows out of the radiator, it flows out of the shell 1 through the second opening 11b at the bottom of the first side wall 103 of the shell 1.

[0057] The heat dissipation structure of this embodiment has the same heat dissipation effect as that of the first embodiment, and can simultaneously achieve efficient heat dissipation of the bottom, top and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9 .

[0058] Example 3

[0059] like Figure 5As shown, this embodiment provides a cooling oil rotary convergence power module immersion heat dissipation structure. The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the partition design is cancelled, and the liquid cooling radiator 2 is directly used to be in close contact with the first side wall 103 at one end of the shell 1 to achieve oil channel isolation on the inlet and outlet sides. At the same time, the first opening 11a at the bottom of the first side wall 103 is used as the cooling oil inlet, and the second opening 11b at the top of the first side wall 103 is used as the cooling oil outlet, that is, a partition-free, cooling oil bottom-in and top-out structure design is adopted.

[0060] Specifically, in this embodiment, the end of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 close to the first side wall 103 is in contact with the first side wall 103, and the first opening 11a is opposite to the flow channel opening of the liquid-cooled radiator 2, and the second opening 11b is located above the top surface of the liquid-cooled radiator 2. The top surface of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 divides one side of the cavity into an upper channel and a lower channel. The flow channel of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 is located in the lower channel, and the DBC substrate, the power semiconductor chip 9 and the drainage structure 12 are located in the upper channel. Figure 6 As shown, the structure and orientation of the drainage structure 12 in this embodiment are the same as those in Embodiment 1, that is, the distance between the first collector plate 12a and the second collector plate 12b gradually decreases along the flow direction of the cooling oil 7 (from the second side wall 104 to the first side wall 103). The rest of the structural design is exactly the same as that in Embodiment 1.

[0061] In the heat dissipation structure of this embodiment, the circulation process of the cooling oil 7 in the shell 1 is as follows: the cooling oil 7 flows into the shell 1 from the first opening 11a at the bottom of the first side wall 103 at one end of the shell 1. Since one end of the liquid cooling radiator 2 is in close contact with the first side wall 103, there is no need for a baffle to block the flow. The cooling oil 7 flows directly into the liquid cooling radiator 2 to achieve heat dissipation on the bottom surface of the power semiconductor chip 9; then it flows back upward in the turning area 13 between the other end of the liquid cooling radiator 2 and the second side wall 104, and then it is collected to the top surface and side surface of the power semiconductor chip 9 through the drainage effect of the drainage structure 12, so as to achieve heat dissipation on the top surface and side surface of the power semiconductor chip 9. Compared with Example 1, since the baffle is eliminated in the heat dissipation structure of this embodiment, the heat dissipation structure is simplified, and the volume of the shell 1 can be reduced, which can meet the efficient heat dissipation requirements of small-sized power modules.

[0062] Example 4

[0063] like Figure 7As shown, this embodiment provides a cooling oil rotary convergence power module immersion heat dissipation structure. This embodiment and embodiment 3 also adopt a non-partition design, that is, the liquid cooling radiator 2 is directly used to closely contact the first side wall 103 at one end of the shell 1 to achieve oil channel isolation on the inlet and outlet sides. The difference is that the heat dissipation structure of this embodiment uses the second opening 11b at the top of the first side wall 103 as the cooling oil inlet, and the first opening 11a at the bottom of the first side wall 103 as the cooling oil outlet, that is, a non-partition design is adopted, and the cooling oil 7 enters from the top and exits from the bottom. Figure 8 As shown, the drainage structure 12 in this embodiment is the same as the drainage structure 12 in Embodiment 3, but the orientation is opposite, that is, the distance between the first collector plate 12a and the second collector plate 12b gradually decreases along the flow direction of the cooling oil 7 (from the first side wall 103 to the second side wall 104). The rest of the structural design is exactly the same as that in Embodiment 3.

[0064] In the heat dissipation structure of this embodiment, the circulation process of the cooling oil 7 in the shell 1 is as follows: the cooling oil 7 flows into the shell 1 from the second opening 11b at the top of the first side wall 103 at one end of the shell 1. Since one end of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 is in close contact with the first side wall 103, there is no need for a partition to block the flow. The cooling oil 7 will not flow directly into the liquid-cooled radiator 2, but will directly pass through the drainage structure 12 to collect on the top and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the top and side surfaces of the power semiconductor chip 9; then it will flow back downward in the turning area 13 between the other end of the liquid-cooled radiator 2 and the second side wall 104, and then enter the radiator to achieve heat dissipation of the bottom surface of the power semiconductor chip 9; and then it will flow out from the first opening 11a at the bottom. The heat dissipation structure of this embodiment has the same heat dissipation effect as that of embodiment 3. The partition is eliminated in the heat dissipation structure of this embodiment, which simplifies the heat dissipation structure and reduces the volume of the shell 1, thereby meeting the efficient heat dissipation requirements of small-sized power modules.

[0065] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above, and the above description is exemplary, not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and changes will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments.
