Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If multiple adapters are used to connect liquid-cooling plates to multiple hashboards, then heat dissipation coverage is improved, but the risk of cooling liquid leakage increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple hashboards (first and second hashboards) onto a single liquid-cooling plate, reducing the number of adapters from multiple separate connections to a unified connection system. This merging approach maintains comprehensive heat dissipation coverage while minimizing the number of potential leakage points by eliminating redundant adapter interfaces.
2Power
If multiple adapters are used for multiple hashboards, then heat dissipation capability is enhanced, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The liquid-cooling plate is designed with multi-functional capability to simultaneously cool multiple hashboards (first and second hashboards) through integrated cooling channels and surfaces. This universal design allows a single plate to perform the heat dissipation function for multiple electronic units without requiring separate adapters for each hashboard, thereby reducing system complexity while maintaining enhanced heat dissipation capability.
3Reliability
If a single liquid-cooling plate cools multiple hashboards, then the number of adapters is reduced, but heat dissipation uniformity becomes challenging
Solution Approach 1:
The liquid-cooling plate incorporates locally optimized cooling channels and heat dissipation surfaces tailored to the specific thermal characteristics of different hashboard positions. By adjusting the density, distribution, and configuration of cooling channels in different regions of the plate, the system achieves uniform heat dissipation across multiple hashboards despite their varying thermal loads and positions, thereby maintaining manufacturing precision without requiring multiple separate adapters.
