Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of radiators, in particular to a high-efficiency air-cooling radiator. Background Art

[0002] Typically, when a circuit board is operating, power devices generate heat as they work. The greater the power, the greater the heat generated. Due to material limitations, power devices cannot dissipate heat on their own and must be closely fitted with excellent thermal conductors to transfer heat away, dissipating it through conduction. To improve heat dissipation efficiency by nearly half, aluminum alloy heat sinks are equipped with toothed fins to increase the heat dissipation area. Fans then forcefully remove heat, effectively cooling the heating device.

[0003] The current radiator fins dissipate heat in the direction of the wind field, that is, the fins are parallel to the wind field. The heat conducted from the power devices above the radiator is dispersed through multiple fins and taken out by the fan. Ideally, the wind passing through the fins is unobstructed and acts directly on the surface of the radiator fins, forming a laminar effect. The laminar airflow is evenly distributed, with only two pairs of sliding between adjacent layers of fluid. There is no lateral mixing between the flow layers, the flow is more orderly, and the particles are not mixed with each other. Under microscopic conditions, there is not much contact between the molecules in the air and the heat sink. The more intermolecular movement, the more contact and collisions there are, the more sufficient the heat exchange is. Therefore, under laminar conditions, the flow is stable and orderly, resulting in slower heat transfer. In view of the above situation, the present application proposes an efficient air-cooled radiator. Utility Model Content

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a highly efficient air-cooled radiator with the following beneficial effects:

[0018] (1) The utility model divides the wind field of the heat sink into two parts by opening an air guide window on the heat sink. One part of the wind blows directly onto the heating device from the air guide window, thereby reducing the secondary heat conduction of the heat sink. In addition, the airflow above the air guide window is turbulent, and the fluid particles in each layer are mixed violently.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present invention generally described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model for protection, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] This embodiment proposes an efficient air-cooled radiator, such as Figures 1 to 4The fins 2 are arranged at the bottom of the heat sink 1, and the fins 2 are arranged in parallel along the length direction of the heat sink 1 to form a heat fin group. A circuit board 6 is fixed on the top of the heat sink 1 by a bracket. The bottom of the heating device 5 on the circuit board 6 is tightly fitted with the upper end of the heat sink 1. When the circuit board 6 is working, the heating device 5 generates heat when working. The heat sink 1 can conduct the heat from the heating device 5 to its interior. The heat sink 1 as a whole acts as a heat storage device, storing all the heat inside itself. Through contact with the air, the heat is slowly dissipated to complete natural heat dissipation. The fins 2 arranged at the bottom of the heat sink 1 can increase the heat dissipation area of ​​the heat sink 1, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat sink 1. When forced heat dissipation is required, a fan 3 is installed at the bottom of the heat sink 1 along the direction of the fins 2. In this embodiment, two fans 3 are installed in parallel. The wind flow generated by the fan 3 passes through the entire heat dissipation fin group, thereby taking away the heat inside the heat sink 1.

[0032] The airflow generated by fan 3 acts directly on the surfaces of the multiple fins 2. Because the fins 2 are arranged in parallel, the airflow encounters no obstacles, resulting in laminar flow. Laminar airflow is evenly distributed, with only two pairs of sliding motions between adjacent layers. There is no lateral mixing between the flow layers, resulting in a more orderly flow and no mixing of particles. Therefore, under laminar flow conditions, the flow rate is stable and orderly, resulting in slower heat transfer. To address this phenomenon, this embodiment chooses to open two air guide windows 4 through the heat sink 1. The two air guide windows 4 are distributed between the fan 3 and the fins 2, and the top of the air guide window 4 has a bevel angle facing the heating device 5. Part of the airflow generated by the fan 3 enters the heat dissipation fin group, and the other part enters the area between the heat sink 1 and the circuit board 6 through the air guide window 4. In this way, the wind field of the heat sink 1 is divided into two parts, consisting of laminar flow at the bottom and turbulent flow at the top. The airflow generated by the fan 3 no longer flows along the original parallel trajectory. Part of the wind blows directly from the air guide window 4 to the heating device 5, reducing the secondary heat conduction of the heat sink 1. The heating device 5 directly benefits during forced convection heat exchange. Moreover, during turbulent flow, the fluid particles in each layer are mixed violently. After being blocked by the heating device 5 and the circuit board 6, the air molecules enter a chaotic state. The air molecules frequently contact the heat sink 1, the heating device 5, and the circuit board 6, and are mixed violently. The molecules show irregular motion, and heat exchange is sufficient, which greatly enhances the heat exchange and can better realize the rapid transfer of heat, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0033] Furthermore, in this embodiment, laminar flow is formed below the heat sink 1, and the airflow has a poor heat dissipation effect on the fins 2 when passing through them. In order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the fins 2, this embodiment also provides a guide structure 7 between each two adjacent fins 2. The guide structure 7 disturbs the incoming airflow, so that the airflow can also form an irregular flow when passing through the fins 2, thereby achieving sufficient heat exchange. The guide structure 7 includes a plurality of first guide blocks 71 and second guide blocks 72 of the same specifications, wherein the two first guide blocks 71 and the second guide block 72 are distributed in a triangular shape to form a unit fixed on the fins 2. The multiple units are evenly arranged along the length direction of the fins 2, and the first guide blocks 71 and the second guide blocks 72 are triangular in structure. After the airflow enters the interior of the fins 2, its motion trajectory is continuously changed under the action of the first guide blocks 71 and the second guide blocks 72, so that the airflow and the fins 2 are fully in contact and complete heat exchange.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] This embodiment adopts the same inventive concept as the first embodiment, the difference being that there is no guide structure 7 inside the fin 2 in this embodiment. After the airflow enters the inside of the fin 2, a laminar flow effect is formed, and the airflow passes through the fin 2 at a relatively fast speed, which will result in the airflow being unable to fully exchange heat with the fin 2, resulting in energy waste. In addition, after the heat inside the heat sink 1 is conducted to the inside of the fin 2, the heat will also be conducted from top to bottom inside the fin 2, but the airflow continuously passes through the fin 2 for heat exchange, and the heat inside the fin 2 is carried away by the airflow before it has time to be conducted to its bottom. This will cause a heat difference in the vertical direction of the fin 2, that is, the heat is higher at the position of the fin 2 close to the heat sink 1, and the heat is lower near its bottom. The airflow passing through the bottom of the fin 2 is not fully utilized, which will also result in energy waste.

[0036] In view of the above situation, this embodiment is provided with an air collecting hood 9 at the end of the fin 2. The open end of the air collecting hood 9 faces the fin 2 and is located in the middle and lower part of the fin 2. The closed end is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 10. The connecting pipe 10 extends upward in the vertical direction to the top of the heat sink 1 and is connected to the air outlet hood 12. The connecting pipe 10 is fixed to the heat sink 1 through a fixing block 11. The airflow passing through the bottom of the fin 2 directly enters the air collecting hood 9, and then blows out from the air outlet hood 12 to the heating element 5, so that the airflow is reused to directly exchange heat with the heating element 5. Since the airflow passing through the air guide window 4 directly acts on one side of the heating element 5, it cannot completely contact the heating element 5. In this embodiment, the air outlet hood 12 is rotated to distribute it on the other side of the heating element 5. The airflow passing through the air guide window 4 and the secondary utilized airflow can cooperate to perform direct air cooling and heat exchange on both sides of the heating element 5, thereby further improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heating element 5.

[0037] In addition, since both sides of the heating device 5 receive two airflows at the same time, in order to avoid the two airflows affecting each other, the present application also fixes a partition 8 at both ends of the heating device 5 to isolate the two airflows through the partition 8 and the heating device 5 itself.
