不同倾角下平板型环路热管的实验研究

Experimental Study on Loop Heat Pipe with Flat Evaporator at Different Tilt Angles

为了解决电子元器件的高效散热问题,自行设计了一套平板型环路热管,从减小平板型环路热管背向漏热及改善系统内部流动性能方面,对蒸发器结构及管线布局进行改善,重点讨论了0°、30°、45°、60°、90°倾角时平板型环路热管的启动性能、运行特性及传热特性。结果发现:与0°倾角相比,有倾角存在时系统有更低的启动功率,在相同功率范围内,蒸发器运行温度更低,运行过程更加稳定,但对于倾角之间的各种情况,系统的运行特性差距很小;在传热性能方面,系统热阻都随功率的增加而减小,最后趋于平稳;在相同功率范围内,0°倾角时系统热阻略高于有倾角时的情况,而对于各倾角之间的情况,仅在功率很低(20W以内)时系统热阻差较大,但随着功率的增大,系统热阻变化基本一致。

To realize highly efficient heat dissipation of electronics, a loop heat pipe （LHP） with a flat evaporator was designed to study its operation characteristics at the tilt angles of 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90° with an improved evaporator structure and a well arranged pipes which can reduce heat loss due to back conduction and improve inner flow performance. The results show that the LHP with inclination has a lower power to start up than the horizontal one, and at the same heat load, the operation temperature of the evaporator is much lower and the system is easier to reach a steady state with less temperature oscillations. However, there is slight difference in operating performance for the LHP at different title angles. The thermal resistance decreases with an increase in the heat load and a steady state occurs at last. The thermal resistance is larger for the horizontal case than that for the inclination case at the same heat load. The thermal resistances are very different at different tilt angles at low heat load, but the difference is small at high heat load.
