Abstract
Description
本發明係關於一種散熱系統以及電子裝置,特別係關於一種包含流量控制單元的散熱系統以及電子裝置。The present invention relates to a heat dissipation system and an electronic device, in particular to a heat dissipation system and an electronic device including a flow control unit.
在一般的滴淋式冷卻系統中,輸送到伺服器中的介電液會滴至熱源而有效地吸收熱源產生的熱量,進而從液態蒸發成氣態。由於熱源在承受不同負載時會有不同的發熱量,因此通常是根據熱源處於高負載時包含的發熱量來決定輸送到伺服器中的介電液之量。如此一來,便能確保熱源即使處於高負載也仍能被介電液有效地冷卻。In a general drip cooling system, the dielectric fluid delivered to the server will drip onto the heat source to effectively absorb the heat generated by the heat source, and then evaporate from a liquid state to a gas state. Since heat sources generate different amounts of heat when subjected to different loads, the amount of dielectric fluid delivered to the server is usually determined based on the amount of heat contained in the heat source when it is under high load. This ensures that the heat source is effectively cooled by the dielectric fluid even at high loads.
然,當伺服器處於低負載時,輸送到伺服器中的介電液往往會有過量而無法有效地從液態蒸發成氣態的情形。如此一來,大部分的介電液在滴至熱源之後並沒有經過相變化,而僅在維持為液態的情況下利用自然對流吸收熱源產生的熱量,這使得滴淋式冷卻系統難以有效地冷卻熱源。However, when the servo is under low load, there is often too much dielectric fluid delivered to the servo to effectively evaporate from the liquid state to the gaseous state. In this way, most of the dielectric fluid does not undergo a phase change after dripping onto the heat source, but only uses natural convection to absorb the heat generated by the heat source while remaining in a liquid state, which makes it difficult for the drip cooling system to cool effectively heat source.
本發明在於提供一種散熱系統以及電子裝置藉由控制工作流體流入殼體的量來確保工作留體能經過相變化而有效地吸收熱源產生的熱量。The present invention provides a heat dissipation system and an electronic device to ensure that the working body can effectively absorb the heat generated by the heat source through phase change by controlling the amount of working fluid flowing into the casing.

根據上述實施例所揭露之散熱系統及電子裝置,由於流量控制單元設置於第一管路,因此流量控制單元得以控制從流入口進入第二容置空間的工作流體之流量,進而控制從滴孔滴至熱源的工作流體之量。因此,流量控制單元得以根據實際需求增加或降低流入第一容置空間的工作流體之流量。如此一來,便不會浪費過多的工作流體而造成成本增加,也不會因工作流體的流量不夠而無法有效地冷卻熱源。According to the heat dissipation system and electronic device disclosed in the above embodiments, since the flow control unit is arranged in the first pipeline, the flow control unit can control the flow of the working fluid from the inlet into the second accommodating space, and then control the flow of the working fluid from the drip hole.

Therefore, the flow control unit can increase or decrease the flow of the working fluid flowing into the first accommodating space according to actual needs. In this way, too much working fluid will not be wasted to increase the cost, and the heat source will not be effectively cooled due to insufficient flow of the working fluid.

於本實施例中,電子裝置10包含一機架100、一殼體150、一第一管路200、一第二管路250、一冷凝器300、一儲液箱350、一幫浦400、一流量控制單元450、一電路板500、一第一熱源550、一第二熱源600、一第一溫度感測器650、一第二溫度感測器700以及一液位計750。需注意的是,機架100、殼體150、第一管路200、第二管路250、冷凝器300、儲液箱350、幫浦400、流量控制單元450以及液位計750亦可共同作為一散熱系統。In this embodiment, the
殼體150設置於機架100並包含一基座151以及一隔板152。並且,殼體150例如為伺服器機殼。於本實施例中,基座151包含一底板153、一側板154、一容置空間155、一流入口156以及一流出口157。側板154立於底板153。隔板152固定於側板154並位於容置空間155中而將容置空間155分隔成一第一容置空間1551以及一第二容置空間1552。第一容置空間1551在一重力方向G上位於第二容置空間1552的上側。第二容置空間1552是由側板154、底板153以及隔板152所共同形成。流入口156連通於第一容置空間1551。於本實施例中,隔板152包含多個滴孔1520。第一容置空間1551以及第二容置空間1552透過滴孔1520彼此相連通。流出口157位於側板154並連通於第二容置空間1552。於本實施例中,流出口157相對底板153的最小高度H1大於工作流體F相對底板153的一預設液位H2。The
於本實施例中,第一管路200包含一第一連接管201以及一第二連接管202。第一連接管201的相對兩端分別連通於冷凝器300以及儲液箱350。第二連接管202的相對兩端分別連通於幫浦400以及基座151的流入口156。第二管路250的相對兩端分別連通於基座151的流出口157以及冷凝器300。此外,於本實施例中,冷凝器300設置於機架100,且冷凝器300於重力方向G上位於基座151的上側。儲液箱350及幫浦400設置於機架100,且儲液箱350連通於幫浦400。於本實施例中,流量控制單元450設置於第一管路200的第二連接管202連通於流入口156的一端並例如為閥或是幫浦。In this embodiment, the
電路板500位於基座151的第二容置空間1552中。第一熱源550以及第二熱源600設置於電路板500並彼此相間隔。第一熱源550以及第二熱源600例如為中央處理器或圖形處理器。第一溫度感測器650設置於第一熱源550而用以感測第一熱源550的溫度。第二溫度感測器700設置於電路板500並鄰近於第二熱源600而用以感測第二熱源600的溫度。液位計750設置於基座151的第二容置空間1552並用以量測工作流體F於第二容置空間1552中相對底板153的液位。The
工作流體F會透過幫浦400的協助從儲液箱350流動到第二連接管202,並在經由流量控制單元450調整流量之後由流入口156進入第一容置空間1551。進入第一容置空間1551的工作流體F會透過滴孔1520沿重力方向G滴至第一熱源550以及第二熱源600。當工作流體F吸收第一熱源550以及第二熱源600所產生的熱量而蒸發成氣體時,氣態的工作流體F會沿流出方向D從流出口157流出第二容置空間1552。流出第二容置空間1552的氣態工作流體F會透過第二管路250流動到冷凝器300中冷凝成液態,接著在透過第一連接管201流回儲液箱350。The working fluid F flows from the
於本實施例中,可根據液位計750量測到的液位來控制流量控制單元450。舉例來說,若液位計750量測到的液位過高,則流量控制單元450會降低流入第一容置空間1551的工作流體F之流量。若液位計750量測到的液位過低,則流量控制單元450會增加流入第一容置空間1551的工作流體F之流量。如此一來,便不會浪費過多的工作流體F而造成成本增加,也不會因工作流體F的流量不夠而無法有效地冷卻第一熱源550以及第二熱源600。需注意的是,於其他實施例中,電子裝置亦可無須包含液位計750。In this embodiment, the
於本實施例中,可根據第一溫度感測器650或第二溫度感測器700量測到的溫度來控制流量控制單元450。舉例來說,若第一溫度感測器650或第二溫度感測器700量測到的溫度過高,則流量控制單元450會增加流入第一容置空間1551的工作流體F之流量。若第一溫度感測器650或第二溫度感測器700量測到的溫度過低,則流量控制單元450會降低流入第一容置空間1551的工作流體F之流量。如此一來,便不會浪費過多的工作流體F而造成成本增加,也不會因工作流體F的流量不夠而無法有效地冷卻第一熱源550以及第二熱源600。需注意的是,於其他實施例中,電子裝置亦可無須包含第一溫度感測器650及第二溫度感測器700。In this embodiment, the
根據上述實施例所揭露之散熱系統及電子裝置,由於流量控制單元設置於第一管路,因此流量控制單元得以控制從流入口進入第二容置空間的工作流體之流量,進而控制從滴孔滴至熱源的工作流體之量。因此,流量控制單元得以根據實際需求增加或降低流入第一容置空間的工作流體之流量。如此一來,便不會浪費過多的工作流體而造成成本增加,也不會因工作流體的流量不夠而無法有效地冷卻熱源。According to the heat dissipation system and electronic device disclosed in the above embodiments, since the flow control unit is arranged in the first pipeline, the flow control unit can control the flow of the working fluid from the inlet into the second accommodating space, and then control the flow of the working fluid from the drip hole. The amount of working fluid that drops onto the heat source. Therefore, the flow control unit can increase or decrease the flow of the working fluid flowing into the first accommodating space according to actual needs. In this way, too much working fluid will not be wasted to increase the cost, and the heat source will not be effectively cooled due to insufficient flow of the working fluid.
此外,由於冷凝器於重力方向上位於基座的上側,因此於冷凝器中凝結成液態的氣態工作流體能更順暢地回收至儲液箱,藉以增加工作流體與熱源的熱交換效率。In addition, since the condenser is located on the upper side of the base in the direction of gravity, the gaseous working fluid condensed into liquid in the condenser can be recovered to the liquid storage tank more smoothly, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency between the working fluid and the heat source.
