Power conversion device
[0001] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 202411357184.7, filed on September 26, 2024, and entitled "Power conversion device", the content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The present application relates to the field of electronic technology, and in particular, to a power conversion device. BACKGROUND
[0003] In the existing power conversion device, the power device is accommodated in the first cavity of the shell, and the two-phase heat sink is accommodated in the second cavity of the shell. The heat generated by the power device during operation can be transferred to the two-phase heat sink. The bottom of the shell is provided with an air inlet hole, and the top of the shell is provided with an air outlet hole. External airflow can flow into the second cavity from the air inlet hole, and then flow out of the second cavity from the air outlet hole through the two-phase heat sink, thereby achieving heat dissipation for the power device. However, since the air outlet hole is arranged at the top of the shell, foreign matter (such as dust or fallen leaves, etc.) is easy to block the air outlet hole, which results in that the external airflow cannot flow smoothly through the second cavity, and the reliability of heat dissipation for the power device is poor. SUMMARY

The shell is provided with at least one mounting hole, an air inlet hole, and at least one air outlet hole. The mounting hole is in communication with the first cavity and the second cavity. The air inlet hole and the air outlet hole are both in communication with the second cavity. The power device is accommodated in the first cavity. The heat sink is accommodated in the second cavity. Each heat sink comprises a heat dissipation substrate and a plurality of condensation flat tubes. The heat dissipation substrate comprises an evaporation cavity for accommodating a cooling working medium. The heat dissipation substrate is in contact with the power device through the mounting hole and covers the mounting hole to close the first cavity. The plurality of condensation flat tubes are located on the side of the heat dissipation substrate away from the power device, and the evaporation cavity is in communication with the plurality of condensation flat tubes. The plurality of condensation flat tubes are located between the air inlet hole and the air outlet hole, and the plurality of condensation tubes are arranged in a spaced manner to form a plurality of ventilation holes. The ventilation holes extend in a second direction. The first direction, the second direction, and the direction of gravity are perpendicular to each other.

The cooling air can flow into the second cavity from the air inlet, and then flow out of the second cavity from the air outlet through the plurality of condensing flat tubes. The heat generated by the power device during operation can be transferred to the external environment by the cooling air. The heat generated by the power device during operation is transferred to the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity, the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity absorbs heat and boils to form cooling working medium in a gaseous state, the cooling working medium in a gaseous state flows from the evaporation cavity to the plurality of condensing flat tubes, the cooling working medium in a gaseous state releases heat and condenses in the plurality of condensing flat tubes to form cooling working medium in a liquid state, the cooling working medium in a liquid state returns to the evaporation cavity under the action of gravity, and the cooling working medium circulates in the evaporation cavity and the plurality of condensing flat tubes.

[0068] The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0069] Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a structural block diagram of a power conversion device 100 cooperating with a photovoltaic module 200 and a power grid 300 according to an embodiment of the present application.
[0070] For example, the power conversion device 100 is a photovoltaic inverter. In other embodiments, the power conversion device 100 can also be a rectifier, a transformer, a current transformer, or other inverters, etc. electronic devices for power conversion. The power conversion device 100 is used to convert the direct current output by the photovoltaic module 200 into alternating current and supply the power grid 300. In other embodiments, the power conversion device 100 can also be used to convert the direct current output by the photovoltaic module 200 into alternating current and supply a load device. The load device can be electronic devices that use alternating current, including but not limited to motors, fans, air conditioners, etc. In other embodiments, the power conversion device 100 can also be applied to electric drive controllers. For example, the power conversion device 100 can convert the direct current output by the battery into alternating current to supply the motor.
[0071] With the increasing power of power conversion equipment, the heat generated by the circuit board assembly inside the power conversion equipment cabinet is also increasing, which leads to the increase of the temperature inside the cabinet, which is very unfavorable to the heat generating components inside the cabinet. Especially for some power modules with high heat dissipation density, the failure risk of the power module is significantly increased under the influence of continuous high temperature.
[0072] In the prior art, when the power conversion equipment is hung on the wall or placed on the ground, air enters the inverter from the bottom of the inverter and is discharged from the top of the inverter, forming a downward air duct. When the gas flows in the air duct, the flowing gas will sequentially take away the heat of the heat generating components. However, this heat dissipation path makes the heat dissipation of the heat generating components located downstream of the air duct faster, and the heat dissipation of the heat generating components located upstream of the air duct slower, and the heat of the lower components is taken into the upper components, resulting in poor heat dissipation efficiency of the upper components, so the service life and reliability of various components inside the cabinet cannot be guaranteed, which will affect the service life of the power conversion equipment as a whole.
[0073] To solve the above problems, the embodiments of the present application improve the heat dissipation mode of the power conversion equipment and the layout of the heat generating components, so as to realize effective heat dissipation of the power conversion equipment, reduce the failure risk of the power module inside the power conversion equipment, improve the use reliability of the power conversion equipment, and further improve the service life of the power conversion equipment.
[0074] For ease of description, the present application defines three mutually perpendicular directions as a first direction (i.e. the X-axis direction shown in the figure), a second direction (the Y-axis direction shown in the figure) and a third direction (i.e. the Z-axis direction shown in the figure), the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction. In this embodiment, the third direction is parallel to the direction of gravity; wherein the negative direction of the Z-axis direction indicates the direction of gravity. The first direction (i.e. the X-axis direction shown in the figure) is perpendicular to the direction of gravity. The second direction (i.e. the Y-axis direction shown in the figure) is perpendicular to the direction of gravity. That is, the first direction (the X-axis direction shown in the figure), the second direction (the Y-axis direction shown in the figure) and the direction of gravity (the Z-axis direction shown in the figure) are perpendicular to each other.

FIG. 3a is a structural schematic diagram of the power conversion equipment 100 shown in FIG. 2 from another angle. FIG. 3b is a structural schematic diagram of the power conversion equipment 100 shown in FIG. 2 along the A-A line. It should be understood that the above schematic diagrams are all position relationship diagrams of the power conversion equipment 100 after being hung on the wall or placed on the ground, that is, at this time the third direction in the figure is parallel to the direction of gravity.
[0076] As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3a and FIG. 3b, the power conversion device 100 comprises a housing 10, a power conversion circuit 20 and a heat dissipation assembly 30. The power conversion circuit 20 and the heat dissipation assembly 30 are both accommodated in the housing 10. The direct current output by the photovoltaic assembly 200 is delivered to the power conversion circuit 20. The power conversion circuit 20 is used to convert the direct current output by the photovoltaic assembly 200 into alternating current. The alternating current output by the power conversion circuit 20 is delivered to the power grid 300 for supplying the power grid 300. The heat dissipation assembly 30 is used to dissipate heat for the power conversion circuit 20.
[0077] Specifically, the housing 10 comprises a first cavity 11 and a second cavity 12. In the first direction, the first cavity 11 and the second cavity 12 are spaced apart by a partition wall 16. Specifically, the housing 10 comprises the partition wall 16, a cooperation wall 17 and a connecting wall 18. The cooperation wall 17 and the partition wall 16 jointly form the first cavity 11, and the connecting wall 18 and the partition wall 16 jointly form the second cavity 12. The first cavity 11 is a closed cavity for accommodating power devices, and the second cavity 12 is an open and ventilated heat dissipation cavity.
[0078] The second cavity 12 is provided with an air inlet hole 13 and an air outlet hole 14. The air inlet hole 13 and the air outlet hole 14 both communicate with the second cavity 12. In the embodiment of the present application, the air inlet hole 13 and the air outlet hole 14 can both extend along the second direction and be distributed on the opposite sides of the second cavity 12 in the second direction, so as to realize the effect that the power conversion device 100 takes in air from one side and discharges air from the other side. Alternatively, the air inlet hole 13 can extend along the first direction and be arranged on the side of the second cavity 12 away from the partition wall 16, and the air outlet hole 14 extends along the second direction and is arranged on at least one of the opposite sides of the second cavity 12 in the second direction, so as to realize the effect that the power conversion device takes in air from the back and discharges air from one or two sides. That is, the air outlet hole 14 of the embodiment of the present application is located on the side of the power conversion device 100, so as to avoid the problem of foreign matter blocking caused by the air outlet hole being located on the top. Meanwhile, the air inlet hole 13 can be located on the back or side of the power conversion device 100, so as to ensure that the heat dissipation assembly 30 in the second cavity can be located in the heat dissipation air duct formed by the air inlet hole 13 and the air outlet hole 14, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0079] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the power conversion circuit 20 includes the power device 22, and further includes the circuit board 21, the magnetic device 23, and the other electronic device 24. In one possible embodiment, the circuit board 21, the power device 22, and the other electronic device 24 are all accommodated in the first cavity 11, and the magnetic device 23 is accommodated in the second cavity 12. The power device 22 and the other electronic device 24 are both mounted on the circuit board 21 and electrically connected with the circuit board 21. Specifically, the circuit board 21 is mounted on the side of the power device 22 away from the second cavity 12, and the other electronic device 24 is mounted on the side of the circuit board 21 away from the power device 22. In other embodiments, the other electronic device 24 can also be mounted on the side of the circuit board 21 facing the power device 22. The magnetic device 23 is electrically connected with the circuit board 21. The power device 22 is a packaged module or device for converting the direct current output by the photovoltaic module 200 into alternating current. Exemplarily, the power device 22 can be, but is not limited to, an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) chip, an FRD (Fast Recovery Diode) chip, or a Mosfet (Metal oxide places semiconductor field-effect transistor) chip, etc. The magnetic device 23 cooperates with the other electronic device 24 to filter the current transmitted in the power conversion circuit 20. Exemplarily, the magnetic device 23 is an inductor, and the other electronic device 24 is a capacitor. In other embodiments, the other electronic device 24 can also be a fuse or other switching device.
[0080] As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3a, and FIG. 3b, the heat dissipation assembly 30 includes the heat sink 32, and further includes the heat dissipation fan 31 and the heat exchanger 33. In one possible embodiment, the heat dissipation fan 31, the heat sink 32, and the heat exchanger 33 are all accommodated in the second cavity 12, the heat sink 32 is used for heat exchange with the power device 22, and the heat exchanger 33 is used for heat exchange with the first cavity 11. In the third direction, the heat sink 32, the heat exchanger 33, and the magnetic device 23 are sequentially arranged.
[0081] The heat sink 32 comprises a heat dissipation base plate 321 and a condensing portion 322. The condensing portion 322 is fixedly connected with the heat dissipation base plate 321. The heat dissipation base plate 321 comprises an evaporation cavity 3211. The evaporation cavity 3211 is an inner cavity of the heat dissipation base plate 321. The evaporation cavity 3211 is used for containing cooling medium. The cooling medium can be cooling fluid including but not limited to water, ethylene glycol or propylene glycol. The heat dissipation base plate 321 is used for heat exchange with the power device 22. Specifically, the partition wall 16 is provided with a mounting hole 15. The mounting hole 15 penetrates the partition wall 16 along the first direction and communicates with the first cavity 11 and the second cavity 12. The power device 22 can be mounted in the mounting hole 15. The heat dissipation base plate 321 is in contact with the power device 22 through the mounting hole 15, and covers the mounting hole 15 to close the first cavity 11. Specifically, in the third direction, the condensing portion 322 can be located above the cooling medium in the evaporation cavity 3211, that is, the condensing portion 322 is located at a position of the heat dissipation base plate 321 closer to the top of the power conversion device 100. The advantage is that after the cooling medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 is heated and evaporated, the gaseous working medium can more smoothly enter the condensing portion 322.
[0082] Specifically, the condensing portion 322 comprises a plurality of condensing flat tubes 324. The plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 are in communication with the evaporation cavity 3211. The condensing flat tubes 324 are located at a side of the heat dissipation base plate 321 away from the power device 22. The plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 are arranged at intervals to form ventilation holes 323, and the ventilation holes 323 extend along the second direction. In the embodiment of the present application, the condensing flat tube can be a flat hollow plate structure for liquid working medium flow. It should be understood that the condensing flat tube can also be other structural designs, which are not limited in the present application.
[0083] The heat generated by the power device 22 during operation can be transferred to the cooling medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 and then to the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 through the cooling medium. The heat dissipation fan 31 can drive the heat dissipation wind to flow into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13. The heat dissipation wind can flow through the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 from the ventilation holes 323 of the heat sink 32, and then flow out of the second cavity 12 from the air outlet hole 14, so as to transfer the heat generated by the power device 22 during operation to the external environment, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the power device 22. The heat dissipation fan 31 can also drive the heat dissipation wind to flow into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13, and then flow out of the second cavity 12 through the magnetic device 23, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the magnetic device 23. The heat generated by the electronic device 24 during operation can be transferred to the heat exchanger 33. The heat dissipation fan 31 can drive the heat dissipation wind to flow into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13, and then flow out of the second cavity 12 through the heat exchanger 33, so as to transfer the heat generated by the electronic device 24 during operation to the external environment, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the electronic device 24.
[0084] It can be seen that the power conversion device 100 provided by the application can avoid foreign matters from the outside caused by the bottom air inlet and the top air outlet in the prior art by the side air outlet in the second direction, thereby improving the reliability of heat dissipation of the power device 22. In addition, in order to cooperate with the air outlet hole design, the plurality of ventilation holes 323 formed between the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 also extend in the second direction, so that the air between the air inlet hole 13 and the air outlet hole 14 can be dissipated to the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 through the plurality of ventilation holes 323, thereby greatly improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324, and improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the power device 22. In addition, in the third direction, the heat sink 32, the heat exchanger 33 and the magnetic device 23 are sequentially arranged, and the direction of the heat dissipation air duct is extended in the second direction, that is, the heat dissipation cascade does not occur between the devices below the second cavity 12 and the devices above, and different types of devices can form their own independent heat dissipation air ducts in the second direction.
[0085] Based on the above-mentioned side air outlet concept, as long as the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the heat sink 32 and the ventilation holes 323 formed by the evaporation cavity 3211 are extended in the second direction, the specific arrangement mode can be various. For example, the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 can be arranged in the first direction, in the third direction, or in other directions (for example, arranged at an arbitrary angle with the heat dissipation substrate 321), and the application does not make specific limitations. The following exemplary embodiments are described.
[0086] Referring to FIGS. 3a and 3b, in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 3a and 3b, in the third direction, the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 are sequentially and spacedly arranged and form a plurality of ventilation holes 323. For example, as shown in FIG. 3a, the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 include a first condensing flat tube 324a, a second condensing flat tube 324b, a third condensing flat tube 324c, a fourth condensing flat tube 324d, a fifth condensing flat tube 324e and a sixth condensing flat tube 324f. In the third direction, the first condensing flat tube 324a, the second condensing flat tube 324b, the third condensing flat tube 324c, the fourth condensing flat tube 324d, the fifth condensing flat tube 324e and the sixth condensing flat tube 324f are sequentially and spacedly arranged and form five ventilation holes 323. In some other embodiments, the number of condensing flat tubes 324 can also be two, three or more.
[0087] Further referring to FIG. 4, the condensing flat tube 324 can include a plurality of flow channels 3241, adjacent flow channels 3241 are separated by a baffle 3242 in the second direction, each flow channel 3241 extends along the first direction, and the plurality of flow channels 3241 are all in communication between the evaporation cavity 3211 and the flow-through cavity 3251. Dividing the condensing flat tube 324 into a plurality of flow channels can uniformly distribute the pressure generated by the gaseous working medium in each flow channel, and the baffle 3242 can also withstand a certain pressure to avoid the problem of bulging, so that the stability of the entire condensing flat tube 324 is better.
[0088] In this embodiment, the heat sink 32 also includes a communication part 325. In the first direction, the communication part 325 contacts and is fixedly connected to one side of the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 away from the heat dissipation base plate 321. Among them, the communication part 325 includes a flow-through cavity 3251, which is the inner cavity of the communication part 325. In the first direction, the flow-through cavity 3251 is located on the side of the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 away from the evaporation cavity 3211. That is, the communication part 325 is in contact with and fixedly connected to the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324. In the third direction, the flow-through cavity 3251 is located above the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity 3211. The flow-through cavity 3251 is in communication with the evaporation cavity 3211 through the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324.
[0089] Further, the projection of the communication part 325 in the first direction covers the projection of each ventilation hole 323 in the first direction, and the projection of the heat dissipation base plate 321 in the first direction covers the projection of each ventilation hole 323 in the first direction. That is, by sandwiching the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 with the board surfaces of the heat dissipation base plate 321 and the communication part 325, the heat dissipation air flow can be guided, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of the heat dissipation air flowing through the ventilation holes, and thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the condensing flat tubes.
[0090] In some embodiments, the evaporation cavity 3211 includes an evaporation cavity bottom wall 3212. In the third direction, the evaporation cavity bottom wall 3212 has the same orientation as the third positive direction. In the third negative direction, the evaporation cavity bottom wall 3212 is located on one side of the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 and the communication part 325, that is, the evaporation cavity bottom wall 3212 is located below the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 and below the flow-through cavity 3251. Thus, in the third direction, the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 can be located below the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 and below the flow-through cavity 3251, which is simple in structure and convenient for design, and is conducive to reducing processing costs.
[0091] In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 3a and 3b, the air inlet hole 13 and the air outlet hole 14 both extend along the second direction, and in the second direction, the air inlet hole 13 and the air outlet hole 14 are located on both sides of the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324, that is, side air inlet and side air outlet.
[0092] Specifically, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3a, the connecting wall 18 comprises a first connecting wall 18a, a second connecting wall 18b, a third connecting wall 18c, a fourth connecting wall 18d and a fifth connecting wall 18e, and the connecting wall 18 cooperates with the partition wall 16 to define the second cavity 12. The first connecting wall 18a and the second connecting wall 18b are oppositely arranged along the third direction, and the third connecting wall 18c and the partition wall 16 are oppositely arranged along the first direction. The fourth connecting wall 18d and the fifth connecting wall 18e are oppositely arranged along the second direction.
[0093] Referring to FIG. 3a and FIG. 3b, the air inlet hole 13 penetrates the fourth connecting wall 18d along the second direction, and the axis of the air inlet hole 13 is parallel to the second direction. For example, the number of the air inlet hole 13 can be multiple. The multiple air inlet holes 13 comprise a first air inlet hole 13a, a second air inlet hole 13b and a third air inlet hole 13c. In the third direction, the second air inlet hole 13b, the first air inlet hole 13a and the third air inlet hole 13c are sequentially and spacedly arranged. In some other embodiments, the air inlet hole can be multiple small holes densely distributed on the fourth connecting wall 18d. The air outlet hole 14 penetrates the fifth connecting wall 18e along the second direction, and the axis of the air outlet hole 14 is parallel to the second direction. For example, the number of the air outlet hole 14 can be multiple. The multiple air outlet holes 14 comprise a first air outlet hole 14a, a second air outlet hole 14b and a third air outlet hole 14c. In the third direction, the second air outlet hole 14b, the first air outlet hole 14a and the third air outlet hole 14c are sequentially and spacedly arranged. In some other embodiments, the air outlet hole can be multiple small holes densely distributed on the fifth connecting wall 18e.
[0094] Specifically, the air inlet side of the heat dissipation fan 31 faces the air inlet hole 13. In the second direction, the heat dissipation fan 31 can be located on the side of the heat sink 32 facing or away from the air inlet hole 13. Specifically, in the second direction, the heat dissipation fan 31 is located on the side of the multiple condensation flat tubes 324 facing the air inlet hole 13. The heat dissipation fan 31 can drive the airflow to form heat dissipation wind. The heat dissipation fan 31 can drive the heat dissipation wind to flow into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13, and then flow out of the second cavity 12 from the air outlet hole 14 through the heat sink 32.
[0095] The number of the heat dissipation fan 31 can be multiple, for example, the multiple heat dissipation fans 31 comprise a first heat dissipation fan 31a, a second heat dissipation fan 31b, a third heat dissipation fan 31c and a fourth heat dissipation fan 31d. In the third direction, the third heat dissipation fan 31c, the first heat dissipation fan 31a, the second heat dissipation fan 31b and the fourth heat dissipation fan 31d are sequentially and spacedly arranged. In some embodiments, the multiple heat dissipation fans 31 overlap with the projections of the multiple air inlet holes 13 and the multiple air outlet holes 14 in the second direction. Such design is conducive to reducing the flow resistance of the heat dissipation wind flowing through the multiple condensation flat tubes 324, increasing the air volume of the heat dissipation wind flowing through the multiple condensation flat tubes 324, and improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation wind on the multiple condensation flat tubes 324.
[0096] In some embodiments, the projection of the at least multiple condensing fins 324 in the second direction overlaps with the projection of the air inlet 13 in the second direction and the projection of the air outlet 14 in the second direction, so as to cover the condensing fins with the air duct, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency. Of course, the projection of the air inlet 13 in the second direction and the projection of the air outlet 14 in the second direction can also cover more parts of the heat sink 32 to further increase the heat dissipation area.
[0097] In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 3a and 3b, the heat generated by the power device 22 is transferred to the cooling medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 through the heat dissipation substrate 321. The cooling medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 absorbs heat to boil and form cooling medium in a gaseous state, which flows from the evaporation cavity 3211 to the flow-through cavity 3251 through each condensing fin 324. Part of the cooling medium in the liquid state in the condensing fin 324 flows from the condensing fin 324 to the flow-through cavity 3251, and part of the cooling medium directly flows back to the evaporation cavity 3211 under the action of gravity. The cooling medium in the flow-through cavity 3251 flows back to the evaporation cavity 3211 through the condensing fin 324 under the action of gravity. The heat dissipation air can flow into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet 13, and then flow out of the second cavity 12 from the air outlet 14 through the multiple condensing fins 324. The heat generated by the power device 22 during operation can be transferred to the external environment through the heat dissipation air.
[0098] Compared with the prior art, in the power conversion device 100 provided by the embodiment of the application, the axis of the air inlet hole 13 and the axis of the air outlet hole 14 are parallel to the second direction, so that the situation that foreign matters (such as dust or fallen leaves) block the air outlet hole 14 and the air inlet hole 13 can be avoided, the cooling air can flow through the second cavity 12 smoothly, the reliability of heat dissipation of the power device 22 is improved, the maintenance cost of the power conversion device 100 is reduced, the space at the top of the power conversion device 100 is avoided to be reserved, the cooling air flowing out of the second cavity 12 from the air outlet hole 14 cannot be dispersed, the temperature of the air around the power conversion device 100 is too high, the installation space of the power conversion device 100 is reduced. In addition, the design that the ventilation hole 323 extends along the second direction ensures that the cooling air flowing into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13 can quickly and smoothly flow through the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the radiator from the ventilation hole 323 and then flow out of the second cavity 12 from the air outlet hole 14, the contact area of each condensing flat tube 324 with the cooling air is increased, the efficiency of the cooling air carrying the heat generated by the power device 22 out of the second cavity 12 is improved, and the heat dissipation efficiency of the power device 22 is improved. In addition, the situation that rainwater flows into the second cavity 12 from the bottom (i.e., the second connecting wall 18b) of the power conversion device 100 in rainy weather can be avoided, the situation that the rainwater washes or soaks the cooling fan 31 and the cooling fan 31 cannot work normally can be avoided, the working reliability of the cooling fan 31 is improved, and the working life of the cooling fan 31 is prolonged.
[0099] Further referring to FIG. 3a, in some embodiments, a heat dissipation fin 326 is further arranged between two adjacent condensing flat tubes 324 and spaced along the first direction. In the third direction, the heat dissipation fin 326 is fixedly connected with the two adjacent condensing flat tubes 324. That is, the heat dissipation fin 326 is accommodated in the ventilation hole 323 formed between the two adjacent condensing flat tubes 324. The design of the heat dissipation fin 326 is beneficial to increase the heat dissipation area of the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324, improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling air on the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324, improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling air on the radiator 32, and improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the power device 22.

In the third direction, the magnetic device 23 and the heat exchanger 33 are both spaced apart from the heat sink 32. Specifically, the magnetic device 23 is connected to and fixed on one side of the partition wall 16 and faces away from the first cavity 11. In the second direction, the magnetic device 23 is located between the air inlet hole 13 and the air outlet hole 14. Specifically, the projection of the magnetic device 23 in the second direction overlaps the projection of the air inlet hole 13 in the second direction and the projection of the air outlet hole 14 in the second direction. For example, the number of magnetic devices 23 is multiple. In the second direction, the multiple magnetic devices 23 are sequentially and spaced apart. The embodiments shown in FIG. 5, FIG. 6, FIG. 7, FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 are similar to FIG. 3a, except that the arrangement of the heat sink 32, the magnetic device 23 and the heat exchanger 33 in the third direction can be interchanged, which will not be described here.
[0101] The design of the magnetic device 23 / heat exchanger 33 being located on one side of the heat sink 32 in the third direction can avoid the situation that the cooling air flows through the heat sink 32 and then flows through the magnetic device 23 / heat exchanger 33, or the situation that the cooling air flows through the magnetic device 23 / heat exchanger 33 and then flows through the heat sink 32, ensuring that the air duct where the heat sink 32 is located and the air duct where the magnetic device 23 / heat exchanger 33 is located are independent of each other, avoiding the temperature cascade problem between the heat sink 32 and the magnetic device 23, which is conducive to improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the power device 22 and the magnetic device 23, reducing the air temperature in the first cavity 11, and improving the working performance of the electronic device 24.
[0102] In some embodiments, in the third direction, the distribution of the multiple cooling fans 31 can correspond to the positions of the heat sink 32, the magnetic device 23 and the heat exchanger 33, for example, the multiple cooling fans 31 include a first cooling fan 31a, a second cooling fan 31b, a third cooling fan 31c and a fourth cooling fan 31d, the first cooling fan 31a and the second cooling fan 31b correspond to the heat sink 32, the third cooling fan 31c corresponds to the heat exchanger 33, and the fourth cooling fan 31d corresponds to the magnetic device 23, so as to achieve precise cooling of the main devices.

In the first direction, the air inlet hole is located on the side of the second cavity away from the first cavity, and in the second direction, at least one air outlet hole is located on at least one side of the plurality of condensation flat tubes. Details will be further described below.
[0110] Please refer to FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, FIG. 10 is a structural schematic diagram of another power conversion device 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application. FIG. 11 is a structural schematic diagram of the power conversion device 100 shown in FIG. 10 along the B-B line.
[0111] As shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the embodiment shown in FIG. 10 is similar to the embodiment shown in FIG. 3a in structure, and the difference between the two is that the communication mode of the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 and the evaporation cavity 3211 is different. Specifically, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, the condensation part 322 includes a first communication part 325a, a second communication part 325b, and a plurality of condensation flat tubes 324. In the first direction, the first communication part 325a and the second communication part 325b are both arranged on one side of the heat dissipation substrate 321 and away from the power device 22, and are both fixedly connected to one side of the heat dissipation substrate 321 and away from the power device 22. In the third direction, the first communication part 325a and the second communication part 325b are oppositely arranged, that is, in the third direction, the first communication part 325a is located above the second communication part 325b. The plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 are arranged between the first communication part 325a and the second communication part 325b, and are fixedly connected therebetween, and in the first direction, the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 are arranged in a spaced manner to form a plurality of ventilation holes 323. In the third direction, the first communication part 325a, the second communication part 325b, and the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 are all located above the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity 3211. In the first direction, the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 are arranged in a spaced manner with the heat dissipation substrate 321, and there is a spacing hole 327 between the heat dissipation substrate 321 and the condensation flat tube 324.
[0112] The first communication part 325a comprises a first flow cavity 3251a which is an inner cavity of the first communication part 325a. The second communication part 325b comprises a second flow cavity 3251b which is an inner cavity of the second communication part 325b. The first flow cavity 3251a is in communication with the second flow cavity 3251b through the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324, and the first flow cavity 3251a and the second flow cavity 3251b are both in communication with the condensation flat tubes 324 to realize the communication between the evaporation cavity 3211 and the condensation flat tubes 324. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, the condensation flat tubes 324 can also comprise at least one flow channel 3241 which extends in the third direction, and the plurality of flow channels 3241 are sequentially and spacedly arranged in the second direction. Each flow channel 3241 of the condensation flat tubes 324 is in communication with the first flow cavity 3251a and the second flow cavity 3251b. The first flow cavity 3251a and the second flow cavity 3251b are both in communication with the evaporation cavity 3211.
[0113] In the embodiments shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the heat generated by the power device 22 during operation is transmitted to the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 through the heat dissipation substrate 321. The cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 absorbs heat to boil and form cooling working medium in a gaseous state, which can flow from the evaporation cavity 3211 to the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 through the first flow cavity 3251a. The cooling working medium in a gaseous state releases heat to condense and form cooling working medium in a liquid state in the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 and the first flow cavity 3251a. Under the action of gravity, the cooling working medium in a liquid state flows back to the evaporation cavity 3211 from the second flow cavity 3251b through the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324. Specifically, the cooling working medium in a gaseous state formed by the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 absorbing heat to boil can flow from the evaporation cavity 3211 to each flow channel 3241 of the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 through the first flow cavity 3251a. The cooling working medium in a gaseous state releases heat to condense and form cooling working medium in a liquid state in each flow channel 3241 and the first flow cavity 3251a. Under the action of gravity, the cooling working medium in a liquid state in the first flow cavity 3251a flows from the first flow cavity 3251a to the second flow cavity 3251b through each flow channel 3241, and then flows back to the evaporation cavity 3211 from the second flow cavity 3251b; the cooling working medium in a liquid state in each flow channel 3241 flows back to the evaporation cavity 3211 through the second flow cavity 3251b.
[0114] Further, the projection of the first communication part 325a in the third direction and the projection of the second communication part 325b in the third direction both cover the projection of each vent hole 323 in the third direction. The heat dissipation wind flowing through each vent hole 323 can be guided by the first communication part 325a, the second communication part 325b and each adjacent two condensing flat tubes 324, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of the heat dissipation wind flowing through the vent hole 323, improving the efficiency of the heat dissipation wind carrying out the heat generated by the power device 22 when working, and improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the power device 22.
[0115] In the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, a heat dissipation fin 326 can also be arranged between the adjacent two condensing flat tubes 324, and the heat dissipation fin 326 is fixedly connected with the two adjacent condensing flat tubes 324. The heat dissipation fin 326 is accommodated in the vent hole 323 formed between the two adjacent condensing flat tubes 324, and the area of the projection of the heat dissipation fin 326 in the second direction is smaller than the area of the projection of the vent hole 323 in the second direction. For example, the number of heat dissipation fins 326 between the adjacent two condensing flat tubes 324 can be multiple. The multiple heat dissipation fins 326 are sequentially and spacedly arranged along the third direction.
[0116] In the first direction, a heat exchange fin 328 is arranged between the heat dissipation substrate 321 and the condensing flat tube 324 close to the heat dissipation substrate 321. Specifically, the heat exchange fin 328 is fixedly connected with the heat dissipation substrate 321 and the condensing flat tube 324. The heat exchange fin 328 is accommodated in the spacing hole 327, and the area of the projection of the heat exchange fin 328 in the second direction is smaller than the area of the projection of the spacing hole 327 in the second direction. For example, the number of heat exchange fins 328 can be multiple, and the multiple heat exchange fins 328 are sequentially and spacedly arranged along the third direction. The design of the heat exchange fin 328 is conducive to increasing the heat dissipation area of the condensing flat tube 324 for the heat dissipation wind flowing through the space between the wall of the evaporation cavity 3211 and the condensing flat tube 324, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the condensing flat tube 324 for the heat dissipation wind, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation device 32 for the heat dissipation wind, and improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the power device 22.
[0117] It should be understood that the power device 22 in the power conversion circuit 20 generally has multiple, and in the above embodiment, one power device 22 is taken as an example for description. In fact, multiple power devices 22 can be cooled by the heat dissipation device 32 in the above embodiment. Specifically, the multiple power devices 22 can be spacedly distributed, and each power device 22 is in contact with the heat dissipation device 32 through the corresponding mounting hole 15, so that one heat dissipation device 32 can cool multiple power devices 22.
[0118] In some other embodiments, the plurality of power devices 22 can also be divided into two groups, for example, the power devices 22 that implement DC-DC (direct current-direct current) conversion are divided into one group, and the power devices 22 that implement DC-AC (direct current-alternating current) conversion are divided into another group, and each group of power devices corresponds to one heat sink 32, that is, the two groups of power devices 22 are cooled by two heat sinks 32. The number of power devices 22 in each group can be one or multiple. It can be understood that the correspondence between the plurality of power devices 22 and the heat sink 32 is not limited to this, for example, more groups can also be divided, and each group is cooled by more heat sinks 32. The following embodiments mainly exemplify the scenario of two heat sinks 32.
[0119] Referring to FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, FIG. 12 is a structural schematic diagram of another power conversion device 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application. FIG. 13 is a structural schematic diagram of the power conversion device 100 shown in FIG. 12 along the C-C line.
[0120] As shown in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, the structure of the heat sink 32 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 12 is similar to that of the embodiment shown in FIG. 3a or FIG. 10, and the difference is that the number of heat sinks 32 is different. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 12, the number of power devices 22 is multiple and is divided into two groups. In the third direction, the plurality of power devices 22 are sequentially and spacedly arranged. The plurality of power devices 22 correspond one-to-one to the plurality of mounting holes 15. The plurality of power devices 22 are one-to-one correspondingly installed in the plurality of mounting holes 15.
[0121] The number of heat sinks 32 is multiple. Specifically, the number of heat sinks 32 is two. In the third direction, the plurality of heat sinks 32 are sequentially arranged. Specifically, in the third direction, the plurality of heat sinks 32 are sequentially and spacedly arranged.
[0122] Each heat sink 32 corresponds to a group of power devices 22. The plurality of heat sinks 32 are one-to-one correspondingly in contact with each group of power devices 22. Among them, in the second direction, each heat sink 32 is located between the air inlet hole 13 and the air outlet hole 14. In the third direction, the magnetic device 23 and the heat exchanger 33 are located on both sides of the plurality of heat sinks 32, and the magnetic device 23 and the heat exchanger 33 are spacedly arranged from the plurality of heat sinks 32.
[0123] It should be noted that in other possible implementations, the plurality of heat sinks 32 can also be fixedly connected in the third direction. Specifically, in two adjacent heat sinks 32, the heat dissipation substrate 321 of one heat sink 32 is fixedly connected with the heat dissipation substrate 321 of the other heat sink 32. In this way, the heat generated by each group of power devices 22 when working can be transmitted to the external environment through the plurality of heat sinks 32, which is conducive to improving the heat dissipation efficiency of each power device 22. Moreover, the plurality of heat sinks 32 are fixedly connected in sequence in the third direction, which is conducive to improving the connection strength between the plurality of heat sinks 32 and the structural stability of the power conversion device 100.
[0124] In this embodiment, the heat generated by each group of power devices 22 when working can be transmitted to the plurality of condensation flat tubes 324 through the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity 3211 of the corresponding heat sink 32 for heat dissipation, thereby realizing rapid heat dissipation of each group of power devices 22. At the same time, in the third direction, the plurality of heat sinks 32 are arranged in sequence, which not only ensures that the heat dissipation wind flowing into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13 can flow through each condensation flat tube 324 of each heat sink 32 from the air vent hole 323 of each heat sink 32, and then flow out of the second cavity 12 from the air outlet hole 14, so as to take out the heat generated by each power device 22 when working from the second cavity 12, thereby realizing rapid heat dissipation of each group of power devices 22; but also can avoid the situation that the heat dissipation wind flows through one heat sink 32 and then flows through another heat sink 32, so as to ensure that the air ducts where each heat sink 32 is located are independent, thereby avoiding the temperature cascade problem between the plurality of heat sinks 32, which is conducive to improving the heat dissipation efficiency of each heat sink 32, the heat dissipation efficiency of each power device 22, and the power density of the power conversion device 100.

Among them, the number of the heat exchange part 332 is multiple. In the second direction, the connecting part 334 is arranged on one side of the multiple heat exchange parts 332 and faces away from the heat exchanger body 331. The design of the connecting part 334 is conducive to increasing the contact area of the heat exchange part 332 with the air in the first cavity 11, increasing the contact area of the heat exchanger 33 with the air in the first cavity 11, increasing the efficiency of the heat generated by the electronic device 24 during operation being transferred to the external environment through the heat exchanger 33, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the electronic device 24, reducing the air temperature in the first cavity 11, and improving the working performance of the electronic device 24.

In other embodiments, the second condensing part 322b can also be omitted, that is, the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the heat sink 32 is located between the air inlet hole 13 and the first air outlet hole 14a.

The second heat dissipation fan 31b corresponds to another heat sink 32. The third heat dissipation fan 31c corresponds to the magnetic device 23. The fourth heat dissipation fan 31d corresponds to the heat exchanger 33.
[0145] In the first heat dissipation fan 31a and the heat sink 32 corresponding thereto, in the first direction, the first heat dissipation fan 31a is located between the heat sink 32 and the first air inlet hole 13a, specifically, the first heat dissipation fan 31a is located between the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the condensing part 322 and the first air inlet hole 13a. In the second direction, the first heat dissipation fan 31a is located between the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the first condensing part 322a and the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the second condensing part 322b.

The first heat dissipation fan 31a can drive the heat dissipation air to flow into the second cavity 12 from the first air inlet hole 13a. The heat dissipation air flows through the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the first condensing part 322a to flow out of the second cavity 12 from the first air outlet hole 14a. The heat dissipation air flows through the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the second condensing part 322b to flow out of the second cavity 12 from the second air outlet hole 14b. Thus, the rapid heat dissipation of the power device 22 is realized.
[0147] The positional relationship of the second heat dissipation fan 31b can refer to the related description of the first heat dissipation fan 31a, and will not be repeated here.
[0148] It can be understood that the heat generated by the power device 22 when working can be transmitted to the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the first condensing part 322a and the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the second condensing part 322b of the heat sink 32 through the cooling working medium in the evaporation cavity 3211. Since the air inlet hole 13 extends along the first direction and is located between the two condensing parts 322, the opposite two air outlet holes 14 (the first air outlet hole 14a and the second air outlet hole 14b) are arranged in the second direction to realize the back air inlet and the two-side air outlet, therefore, the heat dissipation air is equivalent to be divided, and the divided heat dissipation air is cooled by the two heat sinks respectively, so as to improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0149] That is, in the second direction, a part of the condensing flat tubes 324 (i.e., the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the first condensing part 322a) is located between the air inlet hole 13 and the first air outlet hole 14a, and another part of the condensing flat tubes 324 (i.e., the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324 of the second condensing part 322b) is located between the air inlet hole 13 and the second air outlet hole 14b, so that the heat dissipation air flowing into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13 can flow out of the second cavity 12 from the first air outlet hole 14a through the part of the condensing flat tubes 324, and the heat dissipation air can take away the heat of the power device 22 transferred to the part of the condensing flat tubes 324 out of the second cavity 12, and the heat dissipation air flowing into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13 can flow out of the second cavity 12 from the second air outlet hole 14b through the other part of the condensing flat tubes 324, and the heat dissipation air can take away the heat of the power device 22 transferred to the other part of the condensing flat tubes 324 out of the second cavity 12. The heat dissipation air can dissipate heat from the two parts of the condensing flat tubes 324 respectively, so that the power device 22 can be quickly dissipated, which is beneficial to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat sink 32 and improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the power device 22.
[0150] It should be understood that the above embodiment is mainly described in the scenario of back air inlet and two-side air outlet, that is, the air inlet hole 13 extends in the first direction, and the air outlet hole 14 extends in the second direction. In the first direction, the air inlet hole 13 is located on the side of the second cavity 12 facing away from the first cavity 11, and in the second direction, at least one air outlet hole 14 is located on at least one side of the plurality of condensing flat tubes 324. It should be understood that the above scheme can also be applied to the scenario of side air inlet and side air outlet. The scenario has been introduced in the above embodiments, which will not be described here.

The projection of the second heat exchange fan 34b in the first direction overlaps the projection of the third matching hole 19c in the first direction.
[0159] The heat generated by the electronic device 24 is transferred to the air in the first cavity 11. The first heat exchange fan 34a can drive the air in the first cavity 11 to flow, and the air in the first cavity 11 can flow into the heat exchange cavity 330 of the heat exchanger 33 through the matching hole 19, and then flow back to the first cavity 11 through the matching hole 19. Among them, the heat dissipation fan 31 can drive the heat dissipation wind to flow into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13, and then flow out of the second cavity 12 from the air outlet hole 14 through the heat exchanger 33. The heat dissipation wind can take out the heat transferred to the evaporation cavity 3211 of the electronic device 24 through the airflow to the second cavity 12, realize the rapid heat dissipation of the electronic device 24, and realize the reduction of the air temperature in the first cavity 11. That is to say, the heat generated by the electronic device 24 is transferred to the air in the first cavity 11. The air in the first cavity 11 can flow into the heat exchange cavity 330 of the heat exchanger 33 through the matching hole 19, and then flow back to the first cavity 11 through the matching hole 19. The heat dissipation wind flows into the second cavity 12 from the air inlet hole 13, and then flows out of the second cavity 12 from the air outlet hole 14 through the heat exchanger 33.

The heat dissipation wind can take out the heat transferred to the first heat exchange sub-cavity 3311 and the second heat exchange sub-cavity 3331 of the electronic device 24 through the airflow to the second cavity 12.
[0161] The second heat exchange fan 34b can drive the air in the first cavity 11 to flow from the third matching hole 19c to each second heat exchange sub-cavity 3331 through the first heat exchange sub-cavity 3311 of the second heat exchanger 33b, and then back to the first cavity 11 from the fourth matching hole 19d through the first heat exchange sub-cavity 3311. The fourth heat dissipation fan 31d can drive the heat dissipation air to flow into the second cavity 12 from the fourth air inlet hole 13d, and then flow out of the second cavity 12 from the second air outlet hole 14b through the heat exchange body 331 and the plurality of heat dissipation portions 333 of the second heat exchanger 33b. The heat dissipation air can carry the heat of the electronic device 24 away from the second cavity 12 through the airflow.

[0162] In the second direction, the first heat exchanger 33a is located between the fourth air inlet hole 13d (air inlet hole 13) and the first air outlet hole 14a, and the second heat exchanger 33b is located between the fourth air inlet hole 13d (i.e. air inlet hole 13) and the second air outlet hole 14b. This design can avoid the situation that the heat dissipation air flows through the first heat exchanger 33a and then flows through the second heat exchanger 33b, or the situation that the heat dissipation air flows through the second heat exchanger 33b and then flows through the first heat exchanger 33a, ensures that the air ducts where the first heat exchanger 33a and the second heat exchanger 33b are located are independent, avoids temperature cascade between the first heat exchanger 33a and the second heat exchanger 33b, improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the first heat exchanger 33a and the second heat exchanger 33b, improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the electronic device 24, reduces the temperature of the air in the first cavity 11, improves the working performance of the electronic device 24, and prolongs the working life of the electronic device 24.
