A fin manufacturing apparatus includes: a progressive pressing device that forms, by forming in a metal plate having thermal conductivity a plurality of openings for tube-insertion and a plurality of slits while leaving uncut portions, strips that each have openings along a longitudinal direction of the strip and are partially coupled to each other in a width direction; an inter-row cutting device that separates, by cutting the portions via which the strips are coupled to each other, the strips such that each strip has a width of the fin; a cutoff device that cuts the separated strips to a predetermined length; and a guiding device between the inter-row cutting device and an inter-row slit device that guides and supplies, to the inter-row cutting device, the strips that are partially coupled to each other in the width direction, are arranged in the width direction, and are conveyed in the longitudinal direction.

A heat exchanger has a turbulating insert arranged between a pair of plates. The turbulating insert is permeable to fluid flow in both a high-pressure-drop direction and a low-pressure drop direction. One portion of the turbulating insert has the high-pressure-drop direction oriented at a non-zero angle to the high-pressure-drop direction of another portion. A method of making the heat exchanger includes forming a turbulating insert, removing a portion of the turbulating insert to create a cavity within the turbulating insert, placing the remaining turbulating insert into a stamped first plate, and placing the removed portion of the turbulating insert into the cavity at a non-zero angle of rotation relative to the remaining turbulating insert.

A high-efficiency heat sink includes a base and a plurality of heat sink fins A folded portion of each heat sink fin is formed by folding after being pressed and thinned, so that the thickness of the folded portion is less than the thickness of an insertion end of each heat sink fin. The thickness of the portion where the heat sink fin is inserted into a groove of the base is less than twice the thickness of the heat sink fin. It is beneficial to reduce the distance between two adjacent heat sink fins on the base, so that the heat sink fins can be arranged more densely, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the entire heat sink effectively.

A heat exchanger and a fin are provided. The heat exchanger includes: a fin. The fin includes a fin body and a flange, the fin body being provided with a heat exchange tube hole, the flange being provided on the fin body and surrounding the heat exchange tube hole; and a heat exchange tube passing through the heat exchange tube hole and connected to the flange. The flange includes a first sub-flange and a plurality of second sub-flanges, the first sub-flange is connected to the fin body, the plurality of second sub-flanges are connected to the first sub-flange and spaced apart from one another, and a height of the first sub-flange is less than a height of the second sub-flange.

An air fin for a heat exchanger has air channels defined by corrugations, the corrugations having generally planar flanks joined by alternating crests and troughs. Perforations extend through portions of at least some of the flanks and are aligned within two spaced apart planes. A rectangular aperture extends through at least two consecutive ones of the corrugations, and is bounded by the two planes. A method of making the air fin includes forming perforations into a continuous strip of metal sheet at regular intervals, corrugating the strip to form crests and troughs between the perforations, and punching out a portion of the strip at regular intervals. The punching out includes shearing webs between the perforations, and results in the formation of the rectangular aperture.

An assemblable cooling fin assembly includes a plurality of cooling fins. Each of the cooling fins includes a base plate, a first side plate, a second side plate and a first engaging protrusion. The base plate has a first engaging slot. The first side plate and the second side plate are respectively connected to two opposite sides of the base plate. The first engaging protrusion has a connecting end and a deformable end opposite to each other. The connecting end is connected to the first side plate. In addition, the first engaging protrusion of one of the plurality of cooling fins is disposed through the first engaging slot of another one of the plurality of cooling fins, and the deformable end of the first engaging protrusion is deformed so as to become wider than the first engaging slot.

There is a need for better cooling solutions for the ever-increasing thermal density of computing systems. This is solved by providing a radiator (100) for a liquid cooling system for cooling a computing unit, the radiator comprising: a first manifold (101) and a second manifold (102) having among them two liquid openings (103, 104) for connecting the radiator in a liquid loop, channels (110) extending between the first manifold (101) and the second manifold (102) and providing parallel liquid paths between the manifolds (101, 102), fin layers (130) sandwiched between sets of neighbouring channels (110) and extending between the first manifold (101) and the second manifold (102), fastening means (120) for attaching a fan (10) to the radiator (100) in a predetermined position, determining a ring-shaped high-pressure zone (142) corresponding to an outer area of a fan radius (122) of an attached fan, where at least one fin layer has a low-density section placed away from the high-pressure zone, and a high-density section being located in the high-pressure zone and having a higher fin density than the low-density section, the density of the group of fin layers thereby varies both along the channels but also transverse of each channel, resulting in two-dimensional density variations across the radiator surface, sections of fins to be positioned in front of the ring-shaped high-pressure zone has a higher density than the section of fins away from the ring-shaped high-pressure zone.

The present invention relates to an enhanced heat dissipation module, a cooling fin structure and a stamping method thereof. The enhanced heat dissipation module includes a first cooling fin and a second cooling fin. The first cooling fin includes a first tapered tunnel protruding outwards, and the second cooling fin includes a second tapered tunnel protruding outwards. The first tapered tunnel and the second tapered tunnel jointly encircle and form a flow guide channel. Accordingly, a pressure difference is generated by hot air passing through the tapered tunnels, thereby increasing natural thermal convection and further enhancing heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling fins.
