Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of experimental equipment, in particular to a heat dissipation performance comparison test device for a radiator. Background Art
[0002] In order to improve the heat dissipation of the radiator, paint is usually applied on the surface of the radiator. With the continuous advancement of material science, people are also constantly trying to apply various new materials on the surface of the radiator to improve the heat dissipation performance of the radiator. In this exploration process, a comparative experiment is required, that is, when other test conditions are the same, different types of paint are applied on the same groups of radiators or the same type of material is adjusted in its composition ratio to test its effect on the heat dissipation effect.
[0003] The basic heat transfer relationship involved in the test principle is Q = cG (t1-t2), where Q is the heat (W) and c is the specific heat capacity (J / (kg·℃) 2 ), G is the mass flow rate (kg / s), t1 is the water inlet temperature (℃), and t2 is the water outlet temperature (℃). It can be seen from the above formula that when water is used as the medium, at the same ambient temperature, when the water inlet flow rate and water inlet temperature of each group of radiators are the same, the lower the water outlet temperature of the radiator, the greater the heat dissipation, indicating that the coating has a better effect on improving the heat dissipation performance of the radiator.
[0004] How to ensure that the flow through each group of radiators is equal is the key to ensuring the accuracy of the comparative experimental results. The commonly used method is to set regulating valves and ultrasonic flow meters on the branch pipes of each group of radiators, and adjust the opening of each valve to make the values displayed by all ultrasonic flow meters the same.
[0005] This method seems simple but is actually difficult to operate because the radiators are connected in parallel. When the opening of a branch valve is adjusted, the impedance of the entire parallel loop will change, causing the flow of other pipelines to change accordingly. Utility Model Content

[0007] The utility model provides a heat sink heat dissipation performance comparison test device adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A radiator heat dissipation performance comparison test device is used to test the heat dissipation performance of the radiator, comprising a water tank, a circulation pump, a heating mechanism, a temperature sensor, a high-level water tank, a low-level water tank, a temperature sensor, a needle valve, a ball valve, a weighing scale, a measuring cylinder and a three-way valve.

At least two water outlet pipes are connected at the same horizontal height between the high-level water tank and the low-level water tank. The radiator, the temperature sensor, the needle valve and the ball valve located on the same water outlet pipe are set as an experimental group. The low-level water tank is connected to an overflow pipe for draining water from the measuring cylinder. The measuring cylinder is placed on the weighing scale. A return pipe is connected between the overflow pipe and the water tank. The three-way valve is installed at the connection between the return pipe and the overflow pipe.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the water inlet of the radiator is connected to a high-level water tank and the water outlet is connected to a low-level water tank.

Since the acting pressure and flow are the same when each branch is adjusted individually, the impedance of each branch is the same. Since the resistance of the water tank is negligible, it can be ensured that when the ball valves of all branches are opened, the flow through each radiator increases synchronously and the increased flow remains the same; the weighing method is used for measurement, and the results are more accurate than those of traditional flow meter measurement methods, and are not affected by flow field uniformity, water quality, etc.

[0014] Optionally, a water collecting tank 1 connected to an overflow pipe 1 is horizontally installed in the high-level water tank, and the water collecting tank 1 is made of a pipe fitting with the upper half cut off.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the water collecting tank is set in the structural form of a rectangular horizontal weir, which is conducive to maintaining the stability of the liquid level in the low-level water tank.
[0016] Optionally, a water collecting tank 2 connected to overflow pipe 2 is horizontally installed in the low-level water tank, and the water collecting tank 2 is made of a pipe fitting with the upper half cut off.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the water collecting tank 2 is set to a rectangular horizontal weir structure, which is conducive to maintaining the stability of the liquid level in the low-level water tank.

[0020] Optionally, the diameter of the high-level water tank and the low-level water tank is four times the diameter of the remaining water delivery pipeline.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the flow resistance is reduced by more than 99% under the same flow rate, reducing the impact of the high-level water tank and the low-level water tank on the water flow resistance.
[0022] Optionally, the number of the water dispersion holes is 208, and the diameter of the water dispersion holes is 5 mm.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, it was experimentally measured that the outflow area increased by 7.7 times and the outflow velocity was significantly reduced.
[0024] In summary, the present invention includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0025] The water inlet of the radiator is connected to a high-level water tank, and the water outlet is connected to a low-level water tank. When the test device is running, the high-level water tank and the low-level water tank are always kept in an overflow state. When adjusting the flow, they are adjusted one by one in the order of the first experimental group, the second experimental group, etc. The non-adjusted branches are in a closed state. Since the pressure and flow rate of each branch are the same when adjusting each branch individually, the impedance of each branch is the same. Since the resistance of the water tank is negligible, it can be ensured that when the ball valves of all branches are opened, the flow through each radiator increases synchronously and the increased flow rate remains the same. The weighing method is used for measurement, which is more accurate than the traditional flow meter measurement method and is not affected by the uniformity of the flow field, water quality, etc.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The following is combined with Figure 1 -Attached Figure 3 The utility model is described in further detail.
[0033] The utility model embodiment discloses a heat dissipation performance comparison test device for a radiator. Figure 1 The radiator heat dissipation performance comparison test device includes a water tank 1, a heating mechanism 2, a high-level water tank 3, a low-level water tank 4 and a weighing scale 5. A water outlet pipe 10 is connected between the bottom of the water tank 1 and the bottom of the high-level water tank 3, and a circulating pump 12, a temperature sensor 13 and a control valve 14 are installed on the water outlet pipe 10.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 The heating mechanism 2 is used to heat the water in the water outlet pipe 10 to the required temperature. The heating mechanism 2 is connected to the water outlet pipe 10. The heating mechanism 2 includes a plate heat exchanger 20 and a constant temperature tank 21.

The circulating pump 12 and the control valve 14 are located at the water inlet of the plate heat exchanger 20. The temperature sensor 13 is located at the water outlet of the plate heat exchanger 20. An electric regulating valve 22 and a circulating pump 23 are also installed between the constant temperature tank 21 and the plate heat exchanger 20. The temperature sensor 13 can be electrically connected to the electric regulating valve 22 to control the degree of opening of the electric regulating valve 22 to adjust the water temperature in the water outlet pipe 10.

The bottom end of the water dispersion tube 30 is connected to the water outlet pipe 10. The water dispersion tube 30 is made of a DN32 stainless steel pipe. The top of the water dispersion tube 30 is closed and 208 water dispersion holes 300 with a diameter of 5 mm are opened on the surrounding wall. The outflow area is increased by 7.7 times through experiments, which greatly reduces the outflow speed, thereby reducing the influence of the outflow on the pressure stability at the water outlet at the bottom of the tank, and reducing the cost at the same time.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 At least two water outlet pipes 31 are connected between the bottom of the high water tank 3 and the bottom of the low water tank 4. The water inlet ends of all water outlet pipes 31 are at the same level, and the water outlet ends of all water outlet pipes 31 are at the same level. The radiator 7, the temperature sensor 8, the needle valve 35 and the ball valve 34 are installed in sequence on the water outlet pipe 31 from the high water tank 3 to the low water tank 4. The radiator 7, the temperature sensor 8, the needle valve 35 and the ball valve 34 installed on the same water outlet pipe 31 are set as an experimental group.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 An overflow pipe 32 is connected between the top of the high-level water tank 3 and the top of the water storage tank 1, and a water collecting tank 33 connected to the overflow pipe 32 is horizontally installed in the high-level water tank 3. The water collecting tank 33 in this embodiment is made of a DN32 steel pipe with the upper half removed to form a rectangular horizontal weir structure, which is beneficial to maintaining the liquid level in the high-level water tank 3 stable. A liquid level meter (not shown in the figure) is also installed in the high-level water tank 3.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 The weighing scale 5 in this embodiment is a high-precision digital weighing scale, on which a measuring cylinder 50 is placed, the top of the low-level water tank 4 is connected to the outside air and the side wall thereof is connected to an overflow pipe 2 40 extending into the measuring cylinder 50, a return pipe 11 is connected between the overflow pipe 2 40 and the water storage tank 1, and a three-way valve 6 is installed at the connection between the return pipe 11 and the overflow pipe 2 40. A water collecting tank 2 41 connected to the overflow pipe 2 40 is also horizontally installed in the low-level water tank 4, and the structure of the water collecting tank 2 41 is the same as that of the water collecting tank 1 33, which will not be described here; the diameters of the high-level water tank 3 and the low-level water tank 4 in this embodiment are four times the diameters of the other water delivery pipelines, and the flow resistance is reduced by more than 99% under the same flow rate, so the resistance of the high-level water tank 3 and the low-level water tank 4 can be ignored.
[0039] The operating steps of the radiator heat dissipation performance comparison test device of the utility model embodiment are as follows: ① first connect multiple radiators 7 to the corresponding water outlet pipes 2 31, store enough water in the water tank 1, adjust the three-way valve 6 to the passage where water flows into the water tank 1, open the ball valve 34 in the first experimental group, and keep the water outlet pipes 2 31 of the other experimental groups in the closed state; ② open the circulation pump 12, adjust the control valve 14 to avoid large water flow fluctuations, observe the liquid level gauge in the high-level water tank 3, and make the high-level water tank 3 reach a stable overflow state; ③ open the weighing scale 5, adjust the three-way valve 6 to the passage where water flows into the measuring cylinder 50, adjust the needle valve 35 in the first experimental group, so that the mass flow on the display connected to the weighing scale 5 is stable at a certain value, set as m, and after the adjustment is completed Close the ball valve 34 in the experimental group; ④ open the ball valve 34 in the second experimental group, adjust the needle valve 35 of the branch until the mass flow on the display connected to the weighing scale 5 is displayed as m, and close the ball valve 34 of the branch. The adjustment method for the remaining experimental groups is to repeat this step; ⑤ After the flow adjustment of all experimental groups is completed, fully open the ball valves 34 in all experimental groups, and adjust the three-way valve 6 to the passage for water to enter the water storage tank 1; ⑥ Open the circulating pump 23 and the thermostatic bath 21, set the outlet temperature value of the plate heat exchanger 20, and when the outlet temperature reaches the set value, read the value of the temperature sensor 28 in each experimental group; ⑦ Adjust the outlet temperature setting value of the plate heat exchanger 20. Repeat the experiment to obtain the influence of the coating on the heat dissipation performance of the radiator 7 under different water supply temperatures.
[0040] This test device is designed as an open system. The water inlet of the radiator 7 is connected to a high-level water tank 3 and the water outlet is connected to a low-level water tank 4. When the test device is running, the high-level water tank 3 and the low-level water tank 4 always maintain an overflow state. When adjusting the flow rate, adjust them one by one in the order of the first experimental group, the second experimental group..., and the non-adjusted branches are in a closed state. Since the acting pressure and flow rate are the same when each branch is adjusted separately, the impedance of each branch is the same. Since the resistance of the water tank is negligible, it can be ensured that when the ball valves 34 of all branches are opened, the flow through each radiator 7 increases synchronously and the increased flow rate remains the same. Compared with the traditional flow meter measurement method, the measurement using the weighing method is more accurate and is not affected by the uniformity of the flow field, water quality, etc. By placing this test device in an enthalpy difference chamber, the influence of the coating on the heat dissipation performance of the radiator 7 under different water supply temperatures and indoor temperatures can also be studied.
