Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of thermal management devices, and in particular to a non-electric phase change energy replacement device. Background Art

[0002] 1. Current situation:

[0003] In the field of modern industry and energy, heat management and energy conversion technology have always been the focus of research. Traditional cooling / heating consumes electricity, generates carbon emissions, exacerbates global warming, generates more heat (gas / water), creates heat island effect, and forms a vicious irreversible cycle. Consuming refrigerants, fluorides damage the ozone layer, and peak electricity consumption for cooling / heating causes power shortages that may cause disasters.

[0004] Second, the advantages and disadvantages of green energy ground source heat pump technology and water source heat pump technology:

[0005] Advantages of ground source heat pumps: 1. High efficiency and energy saving: compared with traditional air conditioners, it can save 30-60% of energy; 2. Environmental protection and pollution-free: no fossil fuels are burned during operation, and no pollutants such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides are produced. It is friendly to the atmospheric environment and helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and alleviate the urban heat island effect; 3. Long service life: corrosion-resistant materials are used, buried underground and not affected by the harsh climate and mechanical damage of the outside world, and the service life can be up to 50 years or more. 4. High stability: the underground soil temperature is relatively stable and is not affected by changes in the external ambient temperature, and can provide stable heating and cooling effects throughout the year. Whether in cold winter or hot summer, it can maintain a relatively comfortable temperature range. Disadvantages: 1. Large initial investment: It involves professional geological exploration, pipeline laying equipment, and a large amount of pipe and other material costs; 2. High site requirements: underground buried pipes require a certain area and suitable geological conditions. 3. Underground buried pipes are usually buried tens of meters underground or even deeper, which brings great difficulties to later maintenance.

[0006] Advantages of water source heat pump: 1. High efficiency and energy saving: using the heat energy of shallow water sources, such as groundwater, rivers, lakes, etc. for heating and cooling. The temperature of these shallow water sources is relatively stable, higher than the ambient air temperature in winter and lower than the ambient air temperature in summer. Compared with traditional air conditioning cooling and refrigeration, it can save 30-60% energy. 2. Environmental pollution-free: During operation, water source heat pumps do not burn fossil fuels, do not produce pollutants such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides, and do not pollute the atmospheric environment. 3. One machine for multiple uses: can achieve heating in winter and cooling in summer. 4. Reliable operating temperature: The heat source of water source heat pumps is shallow water sources on the earth's surface. The temperature and flow of these water sources are relatively stable and are less affected by external environmental factors. Disadvantages: 1. High dependence on water resources and potential pollution risks: Water source heat pumps are highly dependent on water resources. Their normal operation requires stable water volume and water temperature. During operation, the system may discharge some chemicals into the water body, which may pollute the water environment. 2. High initial investment cost: The construction of water source heat pumps requires a series of projects, including water source exploration, water intake and reinjection system construction. 3. Limited applicable sites: The application of water source heat pump systems has certain requirements for site conditions, and there must be abundant water resources around the site. 4. Complex maintenance and management in the later stage: Water source heat pumps involve multiple complex subsystems, including water source systems, heat pump unit heating and cooling pipeline systems, and control systems, etc. These subsystems are interrelated and affect each other.

[0007] 3. Examples of application areas: data (intelligent computing) center cooling;

[0008] 4. Current status of cooling in data (intelligent computing) centers:

[0009] The high energy consumption of the core components of the server, such as the CPU and graphics card, means high heat generation. We need to make the working temperature of the core components lower than the dangerous working temperature to achieve the best operating state. This makes even the richest companies feel bad about the air-conditioning costs. Tencent dug caves in Guizhou to store servers, Meta placed servers in the Arctic Circle, and Microsoft put servers in jars and threw them on the seabed.

[0010] The power consumption of data (intelligent computing) centers is divided into IT equipment load, refrigeration equipment load, lighting load and equipment loss. The energy consumption of IT equipment cannot be reduced, and refrigeration equipment has become a major energy consumer. Therefore, how to reduce the energy consumption of refrigeration is the key to energy saving in data centers. PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) is a comprehensive indicator for measuring the energy efficiency of data center infrastructure that is generally accepted and adopted by data centers at home and abroad. The calculation formula is: PUE = PTotal (total power consumption of data center) / PIT (power consumption of IT equipment in data center). The closer the PUE value is to 1, the more green and energy-saving the construction of this data center is. According to the data of CAICT (China Academy of Information and Communications Technology) in 2022: The average PUE of my country's data (intelligent computing) center is about 1.52, which means that for every kilowatt-hour of electricity used to run IT equipment such as servers, nearly 0.52 kilowatt-hours of electricity need to be spent on heat dissipation. In 2022, the national data center used a total of 270 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity, and nearly 90 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity were spent on heat dissipation.

[0011] 5. Development prospects of data (intelligent computing) center refrigeration:

[0012] In 2024, AI artificial intelligence has entered the stage of logical operation, and it has become a main line of development. ByteDance, the most promising and powerful company in our country, spent 80 billion on computing power in 2024, and plans to double its spending on computing power in 2025.

[0013] The digital economy is becoming a key force in the reorganization of global factor resources, the reconstruction of the global economic structure, and the change of the global economic landscape. The contribution of the digital economy to the global GDP is constantly rising. It is estimated that by 2025, about 55% of economic growth will come from the drive of the digital economy. In 2026, the global digital transformation expenditure will reach 3.4 trillion US dollars. This is a new blue ocean for the entire industrial chain. Both companies that are undergoing digital transformation and those that support digital transformation will face huge market space. It is estimated that by 2030, the total number of global connections will exceed 200 billion. At the same time, the network access of enterprises, broadband access of families, and wireless access of individuals will usher in the era of 10G connections. General computing power will increase 10 times, and artificial intelligence computing power will increase 500 times.

[0014] 6. Advantages of our patented technology:

[0015] We have proposed an innovative concept of shallow surface energy recovery. The urban underground pipeline network is a whole, a continuously flowing and circulating energy storage system. When the energy of the drainage pipeline in one place or a point area is reduced, other areas will supplement the conduction, and the water / ground source energy in the pipeline will be maintained at around 20 degrees all year round, realizing non-electricity phase change energy replacement to obtain the energy required for cooling / heating and use it on the demand side. The pipelines are physically sealed and isolated to prevent mutual interference, and there is no mutual penetration pollution and public opinion moral risks, thus realizing the utilization of non-electricity sustainable and environmentally friendly water / ground source energy.

[0016] For example, Shanghai's water consumption in 2023 will be 7.327 billion cubic meters, with a water consumption and drainage ratio of about 1:0.9. There is a steady supply of water and drainage, and combined with our proposed patented technology, the advantages of water source heat pumps and ground source heat pumps are integrated to realize a non-electric phase change energy heat exchange device system and form a new water / ground source energy recycling system.

[0017] The core is to use the phase change characteristics of heat pipes. This thermal superconducting medium is activated at a certain temperature and transfers heat in the form of molecular oscillation phase change. The heat transfer element relies on its own internal medium phase change to achieve heat transfer. It has super thermal activity and thermal sensitivity, absorbing heat when it encounters heat and releasing heat when it encounters cold.

[0018] The thermal conductivity is strong, and the thermal conductivity is hundreds and thousands of times that of ordinary metal materials. The temperature conduction is not attenuated, and it can be transmitted at an extremely fast speed (sonic transmission). The thermal conductivity of the heat pipe is 5000~20000W / (mk), which is 50 times that of copper materials, which makes it more practical to achieve our patent goals.

[0019] In response to the above problems, non-electric phase change energy replacement devices came into being. This technology makes full use of the phase change principle of heat pipes and the natural convection effect to achieve efficient transfer and dissipation of heat. It relies entirely on physical mechanisms to complete the energy replacement process, which not only simplifies the equipment structure, but also eliminates dependence on external power. At the same time, it has the characteristics of high efficiency, environmental protection, and safety, and is suitable for a variety of complex working environments. Summary of the invention

[0095] The above and other technical contents, features and effects of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the attached Figures 1 to 32 It can be clearly presented in the detailed description of the embodiments that the structural contents mentioned in the following embodiments are all referenced to the drawings in the specification.

[0096] The present invention provides a non-electric phase change energy replacement device, which is specifically as follows:

[0097] For reference Figure 1-2 The present application is mainly composed of an explosion-proof box 1 and multiple groups of heat-conducting components 2, outer tube components 3 and inner tubes 4 arranged in the explosion-proof box 1. Through the coordination between the structures, it can be made not to be affected by gravity during operation. Whether the radiator is upright or inverted (horizontally), it can work stably and efficiently. The whole process is automatically circulated and no additional power is required.

[0098] For reference Figure 1-2 The explosion-proof box 1 is used to wrap the working parts used for work, which has a protective effect.

[0099] For reference Figure 1-2 The inner cavity of the outer tube component 3 is used to receive heat, and the heat-conducting component 2 and the inner tube 4 are coaxially arranged in the outer tube component 3 for operation. The area where heat circulates is the area between the outer wall of the outer tube component 3 and the inner tube 4, and the heat-conducting component 2 is arranged in this area to absorb the heat of hot water flowing in the area and transfer it to the inner tube 4. The fluid (coolant) passing through the middle of the inner tube 4 exchanges heat and takes away the heat to achieve a cooling effect.

[0100] Furthermore, the outer tube assembly 3 includes a connecting tube 31 and an explosion-proof shaft 32. There are multiple connecting tubes 31, which are arranged opposite to each other and are interconnected in a cross shape. The connecting tubes 31 are synchronously wrapped with the heat-conducting assembly 2 and the inner tube 4; there are multiple explosion-proof shafts 32, which are arranged at both ends of the connecting tube 31, and one explosion-proof shaft 32 is connected to two connecting tubes 31 on the same side. The position of the explosion-proof shaft 32 is the area where the inner tube 4 passes through the connecting tube 31. Since the flow direction of the inner tube 4 and the connecting tube 31 is deviated, a part of the inner tube 4 will be exposed to the outside of the connecting tube 31. At this time, the explosion-proof shaft 32 is set to wrap the inner tube 4 exposed outside the connecting tube 31, thereby reducing the impact of the external situation on the inner tube 4, and synchronously realizing the protection of the inner tube 4; secondly, the explosion-proof shaft 32 is also used to support the inner tube 4 and the connecting tube 31 in the same area. When they are coaxially arranged.

[0101] For further information, please refer to Fig.13 At least two baffles 33 are provided in the connecting pipe 31 for being fixed in the outer tube assembly 3, so as to change the flow velocity of the water flow in the outer tube assembly 3, and force the fluid to be baffled multiple times, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency and effect.

[0102] For reference Figure 1-2The inner tube 4 is used for circulating fluid (coolant). In one embodiment, high-temperature water (temperature is about 85°C) at the flow server end is realized through multiple connecting tubes 31, and heat is transferred to the wall of the inner tube 4 through the heat conduction component 2 to exchange heat with the fluid (coolant) in the inner tube 4 (temperature is 20 degrees).

[0103] For reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Fig. 9 , the heat-conducting component 2 has multiple groups, which are spliced ​​in a ring buckle shape to realize the heat conduction work in the connecting pipe 31. They are arranged in a ring layout and are equidistantly arranged on the outer surface of the inner tube 4 to work; in realizing the function of the heat-conducting component 2, the heat-conducting component 2 includes a round tube 21, a support unit 22 and a heat-conducting unit 23; the round tube 21 is sleeved on the outer surface of the inner tube 4, and the heat conduction effect toward the inner tube 4 can be increased by the round tube 21. At the same time, the round tube 21 is composed of two spliced ​​semicircles, which are located in the inner cavity of the support unit 22 and are fixed by the connection of the support unit 22 and then finalized; there are multiple groups of support units 22, which are arranged in a ring distribution on the round tube 21. The ring distribution setting can make the heat conduction work of the inner tube 4 more uniform and more efficient when the inner tube 4 passes through the heat-conducting component 2, maximize the cooling effect of the inner tube 4, and on the contrary reduce the energy consumption of the cooling work, which is an environmentally friendly and efficient solution; the heat-conducting unit 23 is arranged on the support unit 22 to realize heat conduction;

[0104] The combined shape of the support unit 22 and the heat conduction unit 23 is not limited, as long as the heat conduction work of the annular distribution is satisfied;

[0105] For reference Figure 3-7In one embodiment, the support unit 22 and the heat conducting unit 23 can be set to a square plate shape, so that the heat conducting component 2 is designed to be tubular; wherein the support unit 22 includes two groups of arc frames, and the two groups of arc frames are symmetrically arranged on the circular tube 21, and the symmetrical ends thereof are connected and fixed by bolts. During installation, the two symmetrical circular tubes 21 can be placed in the two symmetrical arc frames, and after the two arc frames are fixed by bolts, the circular tube 21 and its support unit 22 are sleeved on the outer surface of the inner tube 4, and the same principle is used when disassembling and assembling; wherein a plurality of protruding heat dissipating plates 221 and a plurality of connecting bases 222 are provided on the arc frame, and the protruding heat dissipating plates 221 are strip-shaped and are equidistantly distributed on the arc frame in an annular shape. , realizing the operation of the annular support heat conduction unit 23; and the connecting base 222 is arranged between the two connected raised heat dissipation plates 221, and is used to realize the connection position of the raised heat dissipation plates 221 to realize the annular distribution. Through the connection of the connecting base 222, a V-shaped interval is formed between the two raised heat dissipation plates 221, and its appearance is more beautiful, and the effect of annular equidistant distribution can be achieved without changing the shape of each raised heat dissipation plate 221; secondly, one side of the connecting base 222 is pressed against the outer surface of the circular tube 21, and through the fitting arrangement of the connecting base 222 and the circular tube 21, the connecting base 222 applies force to the circular tube 21, so that the circular tube 21 is stably pressed against the outer surface of the inner tube 4.

[0106] For reference Figure 3-7 In order to make the raised heat dissipation plate 221 fit better when carrying the heat conduction unit 23, a further design is made, wherein the raised heat dissipation plate 221 includes a U-shaped plate 2211, a U-shaped groove 2212 and a fixing plate 2213;

[0107] The U-shaped plate 2211 is designed as a U-shaped square plate, and its bottom is spaced apart from the circular tube 21, and has no direct contact with the circular tube 21. The U-shaped groove 2212 is arranged along the bottom spacing of the U-shaped plate 2211 and on two side surfaces at both ends of the corresponding spacing with the U-shaped plate 2211; the fixing plate 2213 is connected to the open end of the U-shaped plate 2211 by bolts; and the U-shaped groove 2212 and the fixing plate 2213 are both designed to provide fixed support for the heat transfer unit 23.

[0108] In conjunction with the above arrangement of the support unit 22, the heat conduction unit 23 is arranged to include a first U-shaped heat pipe 231 and a vertical tube heat pipe 232; the first U-shaped heat pipe 231 is arranged along the U-shaped groove 2212, and in the early stage of forming a fastening connection between the support unit 22 and the round tube 21, the first U-shaped heat pipe 231 can be clamped in the U-shaped groove 2212, and when the support unit 22 and the round tube 21 are fixed, the first U-shaped heat pipe 231 is relatively stably fixed in the U-shaped groove 2212; at the same time, the first U-shaped heat pipe 231 is located at the U-shaped plate 2 The structure between the bottom of 211 and the distance between the circular tube 21 is in direct contact with the outer surface of the circular tube 21, so that a heat-conducting medium is made in the U-shaped plate 2211, and the heat absorbed from the heat source is quickly transferred to the first U-shaped heat pipe 231 that wraps the U-shaped plate 2211. The first U-shaped heat pipe 231 absorbs heat through the position that contacts the heat source, and uses the evaporation-condensation cycle mechanism of the heat pipe to quickly disperse the heat into the circular tube 21 and then to the inner tube 4 for cooling. The heat from the heat source is quickly removed, reducing the overall heat load of the U-shaped plate 2211.

[0109] Furthermore, a plurality of vertical tube-type heat pipes 232 are provided, which are inserted into an open end of the U-shaped plate 2211. After being inserted into the U-shaped plate 2211, they are fixed by a fixing plate 2213. The vertical tube-type heat pipe 232 can directly absorb heat from the U-shaped plate 2211, and can quickly conduct heat, thereby reducing heat accumulation inside the U-shaped plate 2211 caused by heat conduction by the first U-shaped heat pipe 231, avoiding local overheating, and ensuring that heat will not be retained for a long time.

[0110] Furthermore, the vertical tube heat pipe 232 includes a first heat conducting pipe 2321 and a first top shaft 2322. The middle part of the first heat conducting pipe 2321 is connected, and one end thereof is pressed against the inner bottom wall of the U-shaped plate 2211. The first top shaft 2322 is hemispherical, connected to one end of the first heat conducting pipe 2321 away from the inner bottom wall of the U-shaped plate 2211, and the arc surface of the hemispherical shape is arranged toward the inner wall of the outer tube assembly 3. The design of the hemispherical first top shaft 2322 can make its appearance more refined and beautiful and increase the stability of the structure.

[0111] It should be noted that the tops of the first U-shaped heat pipe 231 and the vertical tube heat pipe 232 are both arranged flush with each other, which can maintain the neatness of the structure and make the structure more neat and beautiful.

[0112] For reference Figure 8-12In another embodiment, the support unit 22 and the heat conducting unit 23 can be configured in a tower shape, so that the heat conducting component 2 is designed in a tower shape as a whole; wherein the support unit 22 includes a trapezoidal base 2201 and a connecting plate 2202; there are multiple trapezoidal bases 2201, which are annularly distributed on the surface of the circular tube 21, and there are multiple connecting plates 2202, the number of which is adapted to the mutual connection of multiple trapezoidal bases 2201; the connecting plate 2202 is provided at the middle of the connection between two adjacent trapezoidal bases 2201 by bolts, and the connection and fixing of the trapezoidal bases 2201 by the connecting plate 2202 connects the multiple trapezoidal bases 2201 in an annular manner. The outer side of the circular tube 21 is arranged at equal intervals, and the fixing method of the circular tube 21 is the same as that in the above-mentioned embodiment, and the supporting force is formed by the trapezoidal base 2201 designed with the same effect to fix the circular tube 21, which is not repeated again in this embodiment; and the heat conduction unit 23 includes a heat dissipation unit 2301 and a second U-shaped heat pipe 2302; the heat dissipation unit 2301 is installed on the trapezoidal base 2201, there are multiple second U-shaped heat pipes 2302, and multiple second U-shaped heat pipes 2302 are penetrated on the heat dissipation unit 2301, and the heat dissipation unit 2301 can dissipate heat for multiple second U-shaped heat pipes 2302.

[0113] The heat dissipation unit 2301 includes an outer frame 23011 and heat sinks 23012. The outer frame 23011 is detachably mounted on the trapezoidal base 2201, and its inner cavity is connected on four sides. There are multiple heat sinks 23012, which are equidistantly installed in the inner cavity of the outer frame 23011. The outer frame 23011 is used to carry the second U-shaped heat pipe 2302, which is connected on four sides to form a closed flow channel, which is conducive to the conduction of fluid (such as air or liquid). The second U-shaped heat pipe 2302 is installed vertically, which can effectively transfer heat from the heat source area to the heat sink, and realize rapid heat transfer through the evaporation and condensation process of the heat pipe, thereby reducing the risk of local overheating. The heat sink 23012 is used to increase the heat exchange surface area and use air or other cooling media to dissipate heat. The configuration of multiple heat sinks 23012 can better disperse the heat generated by the heat source and improve the cooling capacity of the system.

[0114] The second U-shaped heat pipe 2302 includes a second heat pipe 23021 and a second top shaft 23022. One end of the second heat pipe 23021 is pressed against the trapezoidal base 2201. The second top shaft 23022 is hemispherical and connected to one end of the second heat pipe 23021 away from the trapezoidal base 2201. The arc surface of the hemispherical shape of the second top shaft 23022 is arranged toward a side of the inner wall of the outer tube assembly 3. The arrangement of the second U-shaped heat pipe 2302 and the second top shaft 23022 makes its shape more beautiful. At the same time, the arc surface of the second top shaft 23022 reduces the contact resistance during heat conduction. Secondly, the second U-shaped heat pipe 2302 conducts hot air to the trapezoidal base 2201, thereby expanding the contact area with the inner tube 4 and maximizing the efficiency of heat transfer.

[0115] It should be noted that, in order to maintain the neatness and aesthetics of the second U-shaped heat pipes 2302 , the tops of the plurality of second U-shaped heat pipes 2302 are also set to be flush.

[0116] Secondly, in another embodiment, the structures in embodiment one and embodiment two can be used simultaneously, and a plurality of outer tube assemblies 3 are provided in the explosion-proof box 1, and the plurality of outer tube assemblies 3 have a plurality of inner connecting tubes 31, and the support unit 22 and the heat conduction unit 23 in embodiment one or embodiment two can be selected and distributed in the plurality of connecting tubes 31 for use, wherein the specific distribution of the structures in embodiment one and embodiment two is not limited.

[0117] It should be noted that the first U-shaped heat pipe and the top of the vertical tube heat pipe are both arranged flush, which can maintain the neatness of the structure and make the structure more neat and beautiful.

[0118] By using the present device in one embodiment, an equal amount of drainage (temperature is 20 degrees) and an equal amount of high temperature water (temperature is 85 degrees) at the server end are used. When the drainage temperature is 45 degrees after passing through the non-electric phase change energy replacement device, the cooling water temperature at the server end at the other end can be effectively reduced to 60 degrees after passing through the device. This shows that the present device has the ability to replace water with a temperature difference of 25 degrees. The multiple working processes in use can be specifically referred to Figure 18-32 .

[0119] At the same time, it should be noted that the various heat pipes described above are all existing mature technologies, and their working principle is to achieve rapid heat transfer by utilizing the phase change process of the working fluid (liquid evaporates into gas, gas condenses into liquid); this technology is not repeated in this application, and specific references can be made to Figure 14-17 .

[0120] In view of the above, the operating steps of the device are as follows:

[0121] 1. Heat enters the outer tube assembly 3 from the external environment and flows in the inner cavity of the outer tube assembly 3;

[0122] 2. Heat flows through the inner cavity of the outer tube assembly 3. The heat conduction unit 23 is arranged between the outer tube assembly 3 and the inner tube 4 to absorb the heat in this area. During the flow process, the heat is transferred to the outer wall of the inner tube 4 through the heat conduction unit 23;

[0123] 3. The fluid (coolant) (such as drainage, the temperature is about 20°C) flows inside the inner tube 4. When the fluid (coolant) passes through the inner tube, heat exchange occurs with the heat transferred by the outer wall of the inner tube; the fluid (coolant) absorbs the heat transferred from the outer wall of the inner tube 4, the temperature rises, and thus takes away the heat, cooling the heat source inside the device.

[0124] 4. The fluid (coolant) that has absorbed heat (e.g., water temperature rises) will be naturally guided or discharged from the system through the inner tube for external heat dissipation, while the cooled water will enter the downstream of the cooling system; this process forms a self-circulating thermal management system.

[0125] The entire process does not require an external power system (such as a water pump) to drive the flow of fluid (coolant), and heat exchange and heat transfer are naturally completed through the configuration of the inner tube 4 and the heat conduction unit 23.

[0126] The above description is only for illustrating the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various variations that conform to the concept of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
