Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of heat dissipation of electronic devices, and specifically to a liquid cooling device that uses single liquid cooling with automatic temperature adjustment to solve the heat dissipation of dual electronic devices. Background Art

[0002] During the operation of electronic devices, a large amount of heat is generated. If this heat cannot be dissipated in time, it will cause the internal temperature of the device to rise, which will in turn affect the stable operation of the device. Moreover, a high-temperature environment may cause the performance of electronic components to decline or even lead to failures. Therefore, heat dissipation is the key to ensuring the normal operation of electronic devices. The heat dissipation of conventional electronic devices is often water cooling and / or air cooling.

[0003] For air cooling of air conditioners, it can be used normally in hot summer. However, in winter, considering the comfort of personnel, air cooling is no longer applicable. Moreover, in winter, air conditioners face problems such as the compressor being unable to start due to low temperature and reduced refrigeration, and cannot effectively meet the heat dissipation requirements of electronic devices. For this reason, a liquid cooling device that uses single liquid cooling with automatic temperature adjustment to solve the heat dissipation of dual electronic devices is specifically proposed. While providing a comfortable environment for personnel, it is suitable for heat dissipation of electronic devices in summer and can also ensure effective heat dissipation of electronic devices in winter. Summary of the Invention

Then, the cold liquid after the primary mixture cooling is shunted, and a part of the cold liquid after the primary mixture cooling is mixed with a part of the high-temperature cold liquid after heat exchange for secondary mixture cooling. At the same time, the cold liquid is shunted by the second shunt pipe, and the cold liquid is mixed with a part of the cold liquid after the mixture cooling for tertiary mixture cooling.

One end of the second shunt pipe 12 and one end of the third shunt pipe 15 are jointly communicated with a third confluence pipe 22 through a sixth three-way valve. One end of the third confluence pipe 22 is communicated with the first confluence pipe 7 and the main return pipe 8 respectively through a third three-way valve.

After the cold liquid flowing into the electronic device 2 exchanges heat with the electronic device 2, 30° cold liquid is obtained in the first return pipe 4; Control both the first flow control valve 9 and the second flow control valve 10 to divert 50%. At this time, the cold liquid flowing into the second return pipe 5 and the third return pipe 6 is both 30°; The cold liquid in the second return pipe 5 and the first diversion pipe 11 merges in the second confluence pipe 13 to obtain cold liquid at 22.5°. Control both the fifth flow control valve 18 and the sixth flow control valve 19 to divert 50%. At this time, the cold liquid flowing into the mixing conduit 14 and the third diversion pipe 15 is both 22.5°; The cold liquid in the mixing conduit 14 and the cold liquid in the third return pipe 6 are introduced into the first confluence pipe 7 together to obtain cold liquid at 26.25°; The cold liquid in the third diversion pipe 15 and the second diversion pipe 12 are introduced into the third confluence pipe 22 together to obtain cold liquid at 18.75°; The cold liquid in the first confluence pipe 7 and the third confluence pipe 22 are introduced into the main return pipe 8 together to obtain cold liquid at 22.5°, and then sent back to the liquid cooling unit 1.

[0019] In this embodiment, by adjusting the flow rate of the flow control valves, while ensuring the accuracy of the mixed cold liquid temperature prediction, a comfortable temperature environment can also be constructed through the second confluence pipe 13, the mixing conduit 14, the third diversion pipe 15, the first confluence pipe 7, the third confluence pipe 22 and the main return pipe 8.

[0020] Embodiment Three In winter, the temperature of the electronic device is lower than that in summer. As shown in the appendix Figure 3 The liquid cooling unit 1 outputs cold liquid at 15°. At this time, the fourth flow control valve 17 controls a diversion of 25%, the seventh flow control valve 20 controls a diversion of 75%, the third flow control valve 16 controls a diversion of 25%, and the eighth flow control valve 21 controls a diversion of 50%. After the cold liquid flowing into the electronic device 2 exchanges heat with the electronic device 2, cold liquid at 27.5° is obtained in the first return pipe 4; Control both the first flow control valve 9 and the second flow control valve 10 to divert 50%. At this time, the cold liquid flowing into the second return pipe 5 and the third return pipe 6 is both 27.5°; The cold liquid in the second return pipe 5 and the first diversion pipe 11 merges in the second confluence pipe 13 to obtain cold liquid at 21.25°.

[0021] In this embodiment, by adjusting the flow rate of the flow control valve, while ensuring the accuracy of the prediction of the temperature of the mixed cold liquid, a comfortable temperature environment can also be constructed through the second confluence pipe 13, the mixing conduit 14, the third shunt pipe 15, the first confluence pipe 7, the third confluence pipe 22, and the main return liquid pipe 8.

[0022] In summary, on the basis of effectively dissipating heat from the electronic device 2, the present invention can achieve the rapid mixing of cold liquids by controlling the flow rate of the flow control valve, so as to ensure the relative uniformity and controllability of the temperature. On the premise of a short flow path, a comfortable temperature environment is created, effectively avoiding the comfort contradiction caused by heat dissipation in summer and winter of the electronic device 2. Moreover, through the convenient regulation of the flow control valve, the temperature of the cold liquid output by the liquid cooling unit 1 and the temperature within the temperature range of the cold liquid after heat exchange with the electronic device 2 can be conveniently regulated as needed, and it has good scalability.
