Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of heat dissipation, and relates to a radiator combining air cooling and liquid cooling. Background Art
[0002] With the development of electronic components towards high integration and miniaturization, the heat flux density of electronic devices has increased sharply, resulting in higher requirements for heat dissipation of electronic devices. Radiators can be used to dissipate heat from electronic components. However, traditional radiators have low heat dissipation efficiency and cannot adapt to the power consumption changes of components, that is, they cannot meet the heat dissipation requirements of electronic components with power consumption changes, leading to too high device temperature and ultimately affecting the performance and lifespan of components; in a liquid cooling system, a pump is used to circulate the coolant in the heat dissipation pipe for heat dissipation. All along, the liquid cooling method has been widely used in industrial applications, such as heat dissipation of steamships, automobiles, aircraft engines, etc.; air cooling is the main heat dissipation method for traditional heat-generating components and also played a great role in the early stage; since the heat dissipation speed of liquid is much faster than that of air, liquid cooling radiators often have good heat dissipation effects, can also be well controlled in terms of noise, and have a small volume and strong heat dissipation capacity, and their application fields are becoming more and more extensive, gradually replacing the traditional air cooling method; currently, some high-end heat components use liquid cooling radiators for heat dissipation. However, once there is a problem with the supply of the cooling medium and the liquid cooling is interrupted and does not work, the heat components cannot dissipate heat in time, and it is easy to occur situations such as burning out of the heat components.
[0003] Chinese Patent CN215766592U discloses an air-cooled and liquid-cooled composite radiator, including a base and a cover plate. It is characterized in that a card slot is provided in the middle of the upper surface of the base, a heat element is installed on the lower surface, an internal water channel is provided at the bottom of the card slot, a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet are provided on one end surface of the base, the liquid inlet is communicated with the inlet of the internal water channel, the liquid outlet is connected to the outlet of the internal water channel, a first fin is provided on the top of the cover plate, and the cover plate is embedded in the card slot and welded to the base, solving the problem that when the cooling medium liquid enters the internal water channel through the liquid inlet and flows, the medium liquid moves between the liquid cooling internal water channels to achieve heat conduction. The larger the heat exchange area, the higher the heat exchange rate. The medium liquid that absorbs heat finally leaves the radiator from the liquid outlet to take away heat. When there is a problem with the supply of the cooling medium liquid in the liquid cooling radiator and the liquid cooling is interrupted and does not work, the high-end heat element is cooled by the air-cooled radiator to protect the high-end heat components from being burned out, thereby protecting the system, and having the characteristics of good heat dissipation effect, high use safety, simple structure, and convenient operation.

The heat generated by the electronic component is transferred to the radiator corrugated fins through the radiator substrate. Part of the heat is taken away by air convection heat transfer, and the other part of the heat is taken away by the coolant flowing through the liquid flow channels inside the fins, which can achieve efficient heat dissipation for high-power electronic devices.
