Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a single water pump is used in the water block, then the device complexity is low, but the flow of cooling liquid is limited leading to poor heat dissipation effect
Solution Approach 1:
The single water pump is segmented into two separate water pumps (first water pump and second water pump), each responsible for different water paths. This segmentation increases the total cooling liquid flow capacity while keeping each individual pump relatively simple, thus improving heat dissipation without excessive complexity increase.
Solution Approach 2:
A water guide plate is introduced as an intermediary component to direct and separate the cooling liquid flow between the two water paths. This intermediary structure enables the dual-pump system to operate efficiently with minimal additional complexity, as the water guide plate simply redirects flow rather than requiring complex control mechanisms.
2Temperature
If the water pump drives limited flow of cooling liquid, then the device complexity remains low, but the heat dissipation effect becomes poor leading to high temperature
Solution Approach 1:
The cooling system is segmented into two parallel water paths, each with its own water pump and heat exchange module. This allows the system to achieve higher total cooling capacity and better temperature control by distributing the cooling load across multiple independent paths, preventing the limitations of a single pump's flow capacity.
Solution Approach 2:
Each water path is equipped with its own heat exchange module positioned at different locations (first heat source surface and second heat source surface), providing localized cooling quality optimization. This ensures that heat is efficiently extracted at multiple points, improving overall temperature management beyond what a single pump could achieve.
3Productivity
If a dual water pump system with separate water paths is implemented, then the heat dissipation effect is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The two water paths and their respective components (pumps, heat exchange modules, water guides) are merged into a single integrated water block structure. This merging approach improves heat dissipation through enhanced flow capacity while minimizing the increase in device complexity by consolidating components into one unified module rather than separate assemblies.
Solution Approach 2:
The water block is designed as a multi-functional integrated component that simultaneously performs multiple functions: housing two water pumps, providing two separate water paths, incorporating two heat exchange modules, and managing cooling liquid distribution. This universality allows the system to achieve superior heat dissipation while keeping the overall device complexity manageable through functional integration.

AI summary
A water block module includes a first water block and a refrigeration module. The first water block is provided with a first heat source surface in contact with a processor and a cold source surface in contact with the refrigeration module. A circulating water path is arranged in the first water block for circulating flow of external refrigeration liquid from the first heat source to the cold source surface so as to reduce the temperature of refrigeration liquid in the circulating water path. The circulating water path in the first water block flows through the first heat source surface, so as to absorb and carry away the heat, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the temperature of the processor. The refrigeration module is arranged on the cold source surface of the first water block, so that the circulating water path absorbs the heat from the first heat source surface.
