Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of water cooling heat dissipation technology, and in particular relates to a water cooling radiator with side-mounted tubing. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology, the performance of electronic devices is constantly improving, and their power density is also increasing dramatically. This leads to a significant increase in the heat generated during operation. Excessive temperature not only affects the performance and stability of electronic devices but may also shorten their lifespan or even cause malfunctions. Therefore, effective heat dissipation technology is crucial for ensuring the normal operation of electronic devices.

[0003] Water cooling technology, as a highly efficient heat dissipation method, has been widely used in the field of electronic device heat dissipation due to its advantages such as strong heat dissipation capacity and low noise. Water cooling radiators absorb the heat generated by electronic devices through circulating coolant and carry it to the heat sink. Through the heat sink, heat is exchanged with the surrounding air, dissipating the heat into the environment.

[0004] In existing water-cooled radiators, the radiators are mostly vertically arranged (i.e., the coolant flows from top to bottom or bottom to top within the radiator), requiring a large vertical space. This makes it difficult to optimize the layout according to different equipment structures and space requirements. Furthermore, existing tubing methods often do not adequately consider the rational layout of the tubing and the optimization of heat dissipation efficiency. For example, the tubing may be haphazardly distributed around the radiator, not only affecting the aesthetics of the equipment but also potentially increasing the length and curvature of the tubing. This results in greater resistance to coolant flow, reducing the coolant's flow velocity and ultimately impacting heat dissipation.

[0005] Therefore, the inventors dedicated themselves to designing a water-cooled radiator to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 7 The working principle of this utility model of a side-mounted water-cooled radiator is as follows: The heat absorber plate absorbs heat from the CPU. The water pump 12 draws coolant from the inlet chamber 273 through the inlet pipe 3, carrying away the heat from the heat absorber plate to form a high-temperature coolant. The water pump 12 delivers the high-temperature coolant to the outlet chamber 274 through the outlet pipe 4. The high-temperature coolant in the outlet chamber 274 passes through multiple flat tubes 22 at the lower end and enters the mixing chamber 262, and then enters multiple flat tubes 22 at the upper end. Each heat sink 21 dissipates heat from the coolant in the corresponding flat tube 22, so that the high-temperature coolant enters the inlet chamber 273 to form a low-temperature coolant. The low-temperature coolant returns to the water pump 12 through the inlet pipe 3, thus forming a cycle to dissipate heat from the CPU.

[0025] This utility model's side-mounted water-cooled radiator, by setting the heat sink 2 horizontally, allows the coolant to flow horizontally, effectively solving the problem of space occupation and inconvenient layout caused by the vertical setting of the existing heat sink. Furthermore, the outlet pipe 4 and inlet pipe 3 run along the top of the heat sink 2 and the end opposite to the outlet chamber 274 and inlet chamber 273, optimizing the pipe routing method, making it aesthetically pleasing and saving piping, improving the flow efficiency of the coolant, enhancing heat dissipation performance, and meeting the high-efficiency heat dissipation requirements of high-heat electronic equipment.

Therefore, any equivalent changes made in accordance with the scope of the present utility model patent application shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
