Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of heat dissipation, and specifically relates to a heat dissipation system. BACKGROUND

[0002] The T / R components in the radar system are one of the core components of the radar system, which are responsible for transmitting radio waves and receiving returned signals. Since these components generate a large amount of heat when working, an effective heat dissipation system is needed to ensure the stable operation of the components and prolong the service life. To achieve cooling of the T / R components, the traditional heat dissipation structure as described in the announcement number "CN219108092U" contacts the cold plate with the heat source to exchange heat, thereby achieving cooling of the heat source. Parallel flow channels, series flow channels and complex three-dimensional flow channels are usually arranged in the cold plate, which relies on the flow of refrigerant in the internal flow channels of the cold plate to remove the heat generated by the TR components through heat conduction and convection.

[0003] To drive the flow of refrigerant in the cold plate, a water pump is usually externally connected to the inlet or outlet of the cold plate through a pipeline, thereby continuously conveying the refrigerant. The external design of the water pump increases the number of pipelines, and the increase in the number of pipelines increases the risk of leakage at the interface. In addition, the independent external water pump also needs to be supported separately, further increasing the volume of the system. Therefore, it is urgent to solve this problem. SUMMARY

[0030] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the person skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0031] Please refer to Figs. 1-3 In the embodiments of the utility model, a heat dissipation system comprises a sealed shell 1, a heat source 3, a cold plate 2, a heat exchanger 4 and a liquid storage tank 5, which are arranged in the shell cavity of the shell 1, wherein the heat source 3, the cold plate 2 and the heat exchanger 4 are arranged in layers from bottom to top. The plate body of the cold plate 2 is arranged in close contact with the heat source 3, and there is a certain spacing between the cold plate 2 and the heat exchanger 4, so that the micropump 21 can be installed, and the cold plate 2 and the heat exchanger 4 are prevented from contacting and heat exchanging, and the heat exchanger 4 is preferably arranged in parallel with the heat source 3.

[0032] The liquid storage tank 5 is located on the side of the heat source 3, horizontally offset from the heat source 3, cold plate 2, and heat exchanger 4. The liquid storage tank 5 is used to store refrigerant. The liquid storage tank 5 is equipped with a liquid storage tank inlet pipe 51 and a liquid storage tank outlet pipe 52. The liquid storage tank inlet pipe 51 is connected to the cold plate inlet 23 of the cold plate 2, and the liquid storage tank outlet pipe 52 is connected to the refrigerant heat exchange pipe inside the heat exchanger 4. After exchanging heat with the cooling water inside the heat exchanger 4 through the refrigerant heat exchange pipe, the refrigerant enters the cold plate inlet 23 through the delivery pipe 41. After heat exchange in the cold plate 2, it is discharged through the cold plate outlet 24 back to the liquid storage tank inlet pipe 51, thus completing the refrigerant circulation.

[0033] The shell 1 is provided with a cooling water circulation pipe 42, which exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the heat exchanger 4 through the externally circulated cooling water. The heat exchanger 4 is preferably a plate heat exchanger with a built-in double flow channel for the flow of cooling water and refrigerant.

[0034] The housing 1 is also equipped with a liquid replenishment line 53, through which refrigerant is replenished into the liquid storage tank 5. A support frame is built into the housing 1 to support the liquid storage tank 5. The liquid storage tank 5 is equipped with a flow meter to monitor the refrigerant flow rate in real time, and a flow regulating valve is also equipped on the liquid storage tank 5 to control the refrigerant delivery flow rate.

[0035] A cooling channel 25, arranged in an S-shape, is formed in the cold plate 2, connecting the cold plate inlet 23 and the cold plate outlet 24. The surface where the cold plate 2 contacts the heat source 3 is considered the front side, and a thermally conductive interface material is provided at this surface. A mounting hole 26, communicating with the cooling channel 25, is formed on the back side of the cold plate 2. A micropump 21 is positioned at the mounting hole 26, with its hydraulic end extending into the cooling channel 25 to deliver refrigerant. The mounting hole 26 is adjacent to the cold plate outlet 24. The micropump 21 is preferably a high-speed micro-canned pump, connected and fixed to the mounting hole 26 via a mounting flange 211.

[0036] A threaded hole is also provided on the back of the cold plate 2. The pressure sensor 22 is fixed to the cold plate 2 through the threaded hole and the connector of the pressure sensor 22 extends into the cooling channel 25. The pressure sensor 22 is arranged adjacent to the outlet 24 of the cold plate. When the external cooling water needs to be driven by a pump to circulate in the heat exchanger 4, a micro pump can also be integrated on the heat exchanger 4, with the same arrangement as the micro pump 21 on the cold plate 2.

[0037] The micro-pump 21, pressure sensor 22, flow meter, and electrical interface 11 of heat source 3 are all located on housing 1. During heat dissipation, if the refrigerant flow rate is too low, the refrigerant temperature near the cold plate outlet 24 will be too high, reducing heat exchange efficiency; conversely, if the refrigerant flow rate is too high, the refrigerant will leave the cold plate quickly without sufficient heat exchange, resulting in inefficient refrigerant utilization. To find the critical flow point with the highest heat exchange efficiency, the refrigerant flow rate q is controlled in real time based on the temperature monitored by the temperature sensor.
