RADIATOR FOR LIQUID COOLING TYPE COOLING DEVICE AND METHOD OF PRODUCING THE SAME
A radiator for a liquid cooling type cooling device includes a plurality of fin plates and connecting members integrally connecting all the fin plates. The fin plate includes a vertically elongated rectangular flat plate body and narrow portions integrated with both end portions of the plate body. All the fin plates are arranged at intervals in the thickness direction of the plate body. The connecting member is formed into a corrugated shape and includes flat plate portions each integrated with the narrow portion of the plate body and arcuate portions and each connecting the adjacent flat plate portions. The plate body, the narrow portion, and the flat plate portion are equal in thickness. Both side surfaces of the plate body, both side surfaces of the narrow portion, and both side surfaces of the flat plate portion are positioned on the same plane.
Heat Exchangers and Methods of Forming Heat Exchangers
Examples of the disclosure relate to heat exchangers. The heat exchangers could be evaporators or condensers. The heat exchangers can comprise a plurality of structures extending from a base plate where adjacent structures are separated by at least a first distance. The heat exchangers can also comprise at least one cover plate positioned over ends of the plurality of structures so that the at least one cover plate is spaced from the ends of the plurality of structures by a second distance where the second distance is smaller than the first distance. The at least one cover plate is brazed to the plurality of structures by brazing material provided between the ends of the plurality of structures and the at least one cover plate. The brazing material is provided in a discontinuous configuration so that gaps are provided between portions of brazing material so that a brazing join is formed from brazing materials that has flowed into spacing between the at least one cover plate and the ends of the plurality of structures.
Heat exchangers including partial height fins having at least partially free terminal edges
In an embodiment, a heat exchanger includes a monolithic body that includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a third substrate, and a plurality of partial height fins. The second substrate is arranged parallel to and spaced from the first substrate, thereby defining a first fluid flow path. The third substrate is arranged parallel to and spaced from the second substrate opposite the first substrate, thereby defining a second fluid flow path. The plurality of partial height fins extend from one of the second substrate and the third substrate toward the other of the second substrate or the third substrate, wherein a terminal edge of each partial height fin is at least partially spaced from the other of the second substrate or the third substrate.
THERMAL MODULE
A thermal module includes a radiating fin unit having a plurality of superposed radiating fin assemblies, and a plurality of groups of heat pipes. The heat pipes respectively have a heat absorbing section and a heat dissipating section formed at two opposite ends thereof. The heat absorbing sections in each heat pipe group is in contact with a heat source, and the heat dissipating sections in the same heat pipe group is sandwiched between two adjacent ones of the radiating fin assemblies. The thermal module is characterized in that the heat dissipating sections are horizontally extended through the radiating fin assemblies from one of two opposite shorter sides to another shorter side along two parallel longer sides thereof, such that the heat dissipating sections not only have a maximum contact area with the radiating fin assemblies, but also give the radiating fin unit an enhanced structural strength.
