Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat dissipation technology, specifically to a phase change chip heat sink. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of microelectronics technology, chip integration is constantly increasing and chip size is getting smaller. This leads to a significant increase in the heat generated by the chip core and the accumulation of heat due to stacking, resulting in a sharp increase in the chip's heat flux density. Chip performance is highly sensitive to operating temperature, making thermal management design increasingly important. To ensure stable chip operation and lifespan, the heat dissipation performance of the heat sink is crucial.
[0003] Common heat sinks can be categorized into various types based on their heat dissipation methods, including air cooling, heat pipe heat sinks, liquid cooling, and semiconductor refrigeration. With the continuous increase in heat flux density of electronic devices, traditional air cooling and liquid cooling methods are no longer sufficient to meet the demands for efficient heat dissipation. Phase change liquid heat sinks have attracted considerable attention due to their compact design. Especially during the phase change process of the liquid flow, they can absorb a large amount of latent heat of vaporization, thereby providing a higher heat transfer coefficient and superior heat dissipation performance, far exceeding traditional heat dissipation solutions.
[0004] Working at the microscale involves complex physical phenomena, such as surface tension effects and bubble behavior, which increases design complexity. Conventional phase-change cooling devices suffer from limitations in structural design, including limited heat dissipation, poor surface temperature uniformity, and inability to sustain high-power cooling, making them unsuitable for the heat dissipation requirements of high heat flux density chips. Therefore, designing novel and efficient two-phase cooling chip heat sinks is a common concern for those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome at least one of the defects of the prior art and provide a phase change chip heat sink.
[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A phase-change chip heat sink, comprising:
[0008] The cover plate has a heat exchange cavity groove and a pair of cover plate through holes communicating with the heat exchange cavity groove. The heat exchange cavity groove has a cold plate positioning groove around its periphery.
[0009] A heat dissipation plate abuts against a positioning groove on a cold plate. The space between the heat dissipation plate and the groove of the heat exchange cavity forms a heat exchange cavity. The side wall of the heat dissipation plate inside the heat exchange cavity is provided with a heat dissipation enhancement structure.
[0010] A pair of connectors, which are respectively connected to the pair of through holes in the cover plate, are used to connect the heat exchange chamber to the external circulation pipeline.
[0011] Furthermore, the cover plate and the heat dissipation plate are connected by welding or screws, and the pair of joints are respectively connected to the pair of through holes in the cover plate by welding or screws.
[0012] Furthermore, the heat dissipation enhancement structure includes multiple microstructure ribs arrayed on the heat dissipation plate; the array arrangement of the multiple microstructure ribs is either a straight array arrangement or an interleaved array arrangement.
[0013] Furthermore, the shape of the microstructure rib is selected from one or more of the following: rectangular cross-section prism, rectangular cross-section cone, rectangular cross-section frustum, trapezoidal prism, trapezoidal cone, trapezoidal frustum, parallelogram prism, parallelogram cone, parallelogram frustum, triangular prism, triangular cone, triangular frustum, circular prism, circular cone, circular frustum, elliptical prism, elliptical cone, elliptical frustum, hemispherical or umbrella-shaped.
[0014] Furthermore, when the microstructure ribs are umbrella-shaped, they include a root and a head arranged from the inside out on the heat dissipation plate;
[0015] The root and the head structures may be the same or different, and are selected from one or more shapes such as rectangular cross-section prism, rectangular cross-section cone, rectangular cross-section frustum, trapezoidal prism, trapezoidal cone, trapezoidal frustum, parallelogram prism, parallelogram cone, parallelogram frustum, triangular prism, triangular cone, triangular frustum, circular prism, circular cone, circular frustum, elliptical prism, elliptical cone, elliptical frustum, and hemispherical.
[0016] Furthermore, the circumcenters of the horizontal projection contours of the root and the head coincide or are misaligned. The radius of the circumcircle of the horizontal projection contour of the root is denoted as R1, and the radius of the circumcircle of the horizontal projection contour of the head is denoted as R2. The ratio of R1 to R2 is 0.1 to 10. When the root and the head are misaligned, the misalignment distance is less than or equal to the sum of R1 and R2.
[0017] Furthermore, when the microstructure ribs are umbrella-shaped, their root periphery is covered with interstitial capillary structures.
[0018] Furthermore, the microstructure rib is a solid rib covered with a rib capillary structure, and the thickness of the rib capillary structure accounts for 0% to 100% of the total thickness of the microstructure rib.
[0019] When the thickness of the capillary structure of the rib column is 0%, the microstructure rib column is a completely solid rib column; when the thickness of the capillary structure of the rib column is 100%, the microstructure rib column is composed of a completely porous capillary structure.
[0020] Furthermore, the sidewall of the area where the heat dissipation plate is located within the heat exchange cavity is also covered with a bottom capillary structure; when the thickness of the bottom capillary structure is 0, the sidewall is a smooth metal surface.
[0021] Furthermore, the thickness of the capillary structure at different locations or in different regions is adjusted non-uniformly according to design requirements.
[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0023] (1) The heat sink cold plate of this utility model serves as a connection between the heat sink cold plate and the chip substrate. Unlike the method of connecting the cold plate to the cover plate and then connecting it through the fixed base, this design reduces the assembly steps and is more conducive to improving the flatness of the bottom surface of the heat sink cold plate and the chip integrated heat sink top cover.
[0024] (2) The umbrella-shaped ribs of this utility model have a large surface area, which can increase the heat dissipation area. The abrupt expansion of the umbrella-shaped structure helps to enhance the turbulence effect of the fluid and improve the dispersion of bubbles. The ribs create a complex flow path during the fluid flow process, making it difficult for bubbles to form large aggregates in the fluid, thereby reducing the bubble detachment diameter and increasing the bubble detachment speed.
[0025] (3) The height ratio of the microstructure ribs to the heat exchange cavity in this invention is 0 to 1, which means that the height of the ribs can be increased from none to fill the longitudinal space of the heat exchange cavity. High ribs are suitable for increasing surface area and turbulence effect, but are prone to causing flow resistance and bubble retention; low ribs can reduce resistance but the heat exchange area is limited, and they have a lower pressure drop in high flow rate heat dissipation systems. Ribs of different heights can better cope with different heat dissipation scenarios.
[0026] (4) The porous capillary structure of this utility model increases the area and path of liquid flow on the surface of the cold plate and the liquid supply, making the phase change heat dissipation technology more efficient and improving the overall performance of the heat sink.

These embodiments are implemented based on the technical solution of the present invention, providing detailed implementation methods and specific operating procedures. However, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0047] This utility model provides a phase-change chip heat sink, comprising:

[0050] A pair of connectors 3 are respectively connected to the pair of cover plate through holes 23 for connecting the heat exchange chamber to the external circulation pipeline.
[0051] In some embodiments of this utility model, the heat dissipation plate 1 and the cover plate 2 are embedded at the bottom and connected by welding or screws. The bottom surface of the heat dissipation plate 1 is attached to the chip integrated heat dissipation top cover.

The periphery of the heat exchange cavity groove 24 is provided with a cold plate positioning groove 27. The heat exchange cavity groove 24 and the cold plate positioning groove 27 form a first-level stepped structure to fit with the heat dissipation cold plate 1. The heat exchange cavity groove 24, the surface 11 of the microstructure rib and the bottom surface 12 of the rib combine to form a heat exchange cavity. The top surface of the cover plate is provided with a cover plate through hole 23 to connect the heat exchange cavity groove.
[0053] The connector 3 is installed in the through hole 23 of the cover plate and connected to the cover plate 2 by welding or threading. The connector 3 connects the external circulation pipeline and the heat exchange chamber.
[0054] In some embodiments of this utility model, when the connection between the heat dissipation plate 1 and the cover plate 2 is by welding, the contact surfaces of the heat dissipation plate 1 and the cover plate 2 are filled with solder, and the sealing and connection between the heat dissipation plate 1 and the cover plate 2 are achieved by welding.

[0056] Understandably, welding methods include fusion welding, brazing, and diffusion welding. Taking brazing as an example, brazing fills the joint gap with molten solder to form a continuous and dense metal bonding layer, avoiding microcracks or porosity that may occur in traditional welding, and ensuring that the cold head maintains a tight seal under high pressure or high frequency thermal cycling. Screw or threaded connections allow for non-destructive disassembly and assembly, facilitating regular cleaning, replacement of sealing rings, or maintenance of internal flow channels, avoiding the high cost of replacing the entire weld. The choice between the two connection methods depends on the actual needs.

[0060] In some embodiments of this utility model, the heat dissipation enhancement structure includes a plurality of microstructure ribs 11 arrayed on the heat dissipation plate 1; the array arrangement of the plurality of microstructure ribs 11 is a straight array arrangement or an interleaved array arrangement.
