DESC:DESCRIPTION
TECHNICAL FIELD
[001] This disclosure relates generally to heat exchangers, and more particularly to heat removing system for removing heat from heat zones of an automobile using coolant fluid.
BACKGROUND
[002] Cold plates find utility in various systems, such as automobiles, for extracting extract heat in order to maintain operable temperature range. A radiator box is generally developed based on the cold plate that can locally regulate the temperature of a refrigerant or a cooling fluid (also known as a coolant). The radiator box distributes the coolant in locations where the temperature needs to be maintained or regulated. A radiator box which used water as the coolant is known as a water box. The usage of the water box and the method of distributing the coolant to the cold plate(s) associated with the water boxes varies with application.
[003] However, the existing solutions are not efficient in generating sufficient heat flux. Further, the conduction in the cold plates is limited to the conduction coefficient of the material and the dimensions of the cold plate. As such, in order to improve the existing solutions, the heat zones in the cold plate need to be increased. Moreover, the performance of the cold plate under different atmospheric conditions and pressure changes, since the coolant (fluid) properties change depending on whether the atmospheric temperature is too high or too low. The density of the fluid affects the flow resulting in an indeterministic situation where boundary layer becomes too complex to be solved numerically or computationally.
[004] Therefore, a there is a need for a heat extracting system having a geometry that forces a specific kind of coolant (fluid) flow in the system for achieving the desired operational temperatures and heat transfer rates.
SUMMARY
[005] In an embodiment, a heat removing system is disclosed that includes a first member and a second member positioned atop the first member. Each of the first member and the second member possess heat conduction property. The first member and the second member may define a cavity therebetween. Further, the heat removing system may include an inlet fluidically coupled with the cavity, the inlet being configured to receive a fluid within the cavity. The heat removing system may further include an outlet fluidically coupled with the cavity, the outlet being configured to exit the fluid from the cavity. The cavity is to create a vortex within the cavity, to maximize the heat transfer from the fluid to the first member and the second member.
[006] In some embodiments, the first member may include a first member top side, the first member top side defining an associated channel of a predefined configuration. The first member may further include a first member bottom side. The second member may include a second member top side and a second member bottom side. The second member bottom side may define an associated channel of a predefined configuration. The second member may be positioned atop the first member, with the first member top side facing the second member bottom side. The channel associated with the first member top side and the channel associated with the second member bottom side may together define the cavity.
[007] By way of an example, material of each of the first member and the second member may be Aluminium. In some embodiments, the cavity may include a left sub-cavity and a right sub-cavity. Each of the left sub-cavity and the right sub-cavity may be fluidically coupled with the inlet and the outlet. The left sub-cavity and the right sub-cavity are to split therebetween the fluid entering into the cavity from the inlet, into: a left sub-cavity flow; and a right sub-cavity flow. The left sub-cavity may include a left sub-cavity direct path fluidically coupled with the inlet and the outlet and a left sub-cavity return path fluidically coupled with the inlet and the outlet. The left sub-cavity direct path and the left sub-cavity return path may be configured to further split therebetween the left sub-cavity flow into: a left sub-cavity exit flow; and a left sub-cavity return flow, respectively. The right sub-cavity may include a right sub-cavity direct path fluidically coupled with the inlet and the outlet; and a right sub-cavity return path fluidically coupled with the inlet and the outlet. The right sub-cavity direct path and the right sub-cavity return path may be configured to further split therebetween the right sub-cavity flow into: a right sub-cavity exit flow; and a right sub-cavity return flow, respectively. The left sub-cavity return path may be fluidically coupled with the left sub-cavity direct path via: a left cavity proximal junction positioned in proximity with the inlet and a left cavity distal junction positioned in proximity with the outlet. The right sub-cavity return path may be fluidically coupled with the right sub-cavity direct path via: a right cavity proximal junction positioned in proximity with the inlet and a right cavity distal junction positioned in proximity with the outlet. The left sub-cavity direct path and the left sub-cavity return path may be configured to further split therebetween the left sub-cavity flow into the left sub-cavity exit flow and the left sub-cavity return flow, respectively, via the left cavity distal junction. The left sub-cavity direct path and the left sub-cavity return path may be further configured to merge the left sub-cavity return flow with the left sub-cavity exit flow, via the left cavity proximal junction. The right sub-cavity direct path and the right sub-cavity return path may be configured to further split therebetween the right sub-cavity flow into the right sub-cavity exit flow and the right sub-cavity return flow, respectively, via the right cavity distal junction.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[021] Exemplary embodiments are described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Wherever convenient, the same reference numbers are used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts. While examples and features of disclosed principles are described herein, modifications, adaptations, and other implementations are possible without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosed embodiments. It is intended that the following detailed description be considered as exemplary only, with the true scope and spirit being indicated by the following claims. Additional illustrative embodiments are listed below.
[022] A heat removing system (also referred to as ‘cold plate’ in this disclosure) is disclosed. The cold plate is built of two machined Aluminum components that fit one above the other to produce a cavity for the flow of a coolant fluid inside. The cold plate includes a predefined flow path inside it that allows the flow of the fluid to get converted to vortex flow. With a mass flow rate of 0.6 kilogram per second (kg/sec) a streamline velocity contour can be obtained. Various simulations were performed on the predefined flow path inside the cold plate, to study the streamline flow inside the cold plate, and are summarized below:
[023] (a) A predefined flow path inside the cold plate allows the fluid to circulate inside the plate increasing its time to heat transfer. The greater the fluid loses its self-potential energy, the more it is capable of carrying heat from the attached load.
[024] (b) Fluid motion in two different direction is observed – exit flow and return (backflow) flow. The backflow indicates losses due to viscous frictional force on the contact surfaces. It is also observed that due to this motion the possibility of a vortex formation inside the plate is initiated that can propagate to become bigger.
[025] (c) The circulating fluid becomes dominant in the outlet region of the cold plate, and a flow separation is observed after the contact between the fluid and metal plate is withered.
[026] It should be noted that the cold plate can function as a vortex generator to introduce heat zones where maximum heat flux can travel through the system resulting in the increase of the overall heat transfer capacity of the cold plate. A region of the cold plate where a maximum kinetic energy is being utilized by the fluid to overcome the viscous nature of the fluid to flow in the confined fluid domain is approximately 70 percent of the whole area available. This implies that the heat transfer in this region is greater and can be considered as such this region can be considered as heat zones where maximum heat flux is travelling through the system.
[027] Referring now to FIG. 1, a schematic top view of a heat removing system 100 is illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments. The heat removing system 100, for example as shown in FIG. 1, may be configured in a rectangular profile. In some example embodiments, the dimensions of the heat removing system 100 may be as shown in FIG. 1 – the heat removing system 100 may be 300 millimeters (mm) long and 125 mm wide.
[028] The heat removing system 100 may include a first member 102 and a second member 104 positioned atop the first member 102 (only the first member 102 can be seen in FIG. 1, since the second member 104 is positioned below the first member 102). Each of the first member 102 and the second member 104 may possess heat conduction property. To this end, each of the first member 102 and the second member 104 may be made from a metal or an alloy having high heat conduction property. For example, each of the first member 102 and the second member 104 may be made from Aluminum. The first member 102 and the second member 104 may define a cavity 106 therebetween.
[029] As will be understood, each of the first member 102 and the second member 104 may be configured as flat plate having two opposite sides – a plane side and a contoured side. The contoured side of each of the first member 102 and the second member 104 may have contours (i.e. depressions). When the first member 102 is positioned atop the second member 104 with the contoured sides facing each other, the contours of the contoured sides may together create the cavity 106. This is further explained in detail, in conjunction with FIG. 2.
[030] The heat removing system 100 may further include an inlet 108 which may be fluidically coupled with the cavity 106. The inlet 108 may be configured to receive a fluid (e.g. a coolant liquid) within the cavity 106. Further, the heat removing system 100 may include an outlet 110 fluidically coupled with the cavity 106. The outlet 110 may be being configured to exit the fluid from the cavity 106. For example, the inlet 108 and the outlet 110 may also be created via associated contours (i.e. depressions) provided on the contoured side of each of the first member 102 and the second member 104. It should be noted that heated fluid may be directed into the cavity for removing the heat from the fluid, by way of conduction via the surface area of contact associated with the first member 102 and the second member 104. The cavity 106 may be create a vortex within the cavity 106, to maximize the heat transfer from the fluid to the first member 102 and the second member 104.
[031] Referring now to FIG. 2, a schematic side cross-section view of the heat removing system 100 is illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments. As mentioned above, the first member 102 and the second member 104 may define a cavity 106 therebetween. To this end, each of the first member 102 and the second member 104 may be configured as a plate. The first member 102 may include a first member top side 102A and a first member bottom side 102B facing opposite the first member top side 102A. The first member top side 102A may define an associated channel 112A of a predefined configuration. Similarly, the second member 104 may include a second member top side 104A and a second member bottom side 104B facing opposite to the second member top side 104A. The second member bottom side 104B may define an associated channel 112B of a predefined configuration. The second member 104 may be positioned atop the first member 102, with the first member top side 102A facing the second member bottom side 104B. As a result, the channel 112A associated with the first member top side 102A and the channel 112B associated with the second member bottom side 104B together may define the cavity 106.
[032] Referring once again to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the cavity 106 may further include a left sub-cavity 106A and a right sub-cavity 10B. In other words, the heat removing system 100 may include a middle partition P defined together by the first member 102 and the second member 104. The left sub-cavity 106A may be defined towards the left side of the middle partition P and the right sub-cavity 10B may be defined towards the right side of the middle partition P. As shown in FIG. 1, each of the left sub-cavity 106A and the right sub-cavity 106B may be fluidically coupled with the inlet 108 and the outlet 110. Further, the left sub-cavity 106A and the right sub-cavity 106B may split therebetween the fluid entering into the cavity 106 from the inlet 108, into: a left sub-cavity flow and a right sub-cavity flow, respectively. This is illustrated and further explained in detail in conjunction with FIGs. 3-4.
[033] Referring now to FIGs. 3-4, schematic views 300, 400 showing fluid flow patterns through the heat removing system 100 are illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments. FIGs. 3- show an inlet fluid flow 302 corresponding to the inlet 108 and an outlet fluid flow 304 corresponding to the outlet 110. The left sub-cavity 106A and the right sub-cavity 106B may cause the inlet fluid flow 302 to be split into a left sub-cavity flow 306A and a right sub-cavity flow 306B. In particular, the middle partition P may cause the inlet fluid flow 302 to be split into a left sub-cavity flow 306A and a right sub-cavity flow 306B.
[034] Referring once again to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the left sub-cavity 106A may include a left sub-cavity direct path 114A fluidically coupled with the inlet 108 and the outlet 110. It should be noted that the left sub-cavity direct path 114A may be defined between the middle partition P and at least one left-side partitions Pl. The left sub-cavity 106A may further include a left sub-cavity return path 114B fluidically coupled with the inlet 108 and the outlet 110. The left sub-cavity return path 114B may be defined on the left side of the at least one left-side partitions Pl. The left sub-cavity direct path 114A and the left sub-cavity return path 114B may further split therebetween the left sub-cavity flow into a left sub-cavity exit flow and a left sub-cavity return flow, respectively. As such, the fluid flowing via of left sub-cavity 106A may be split into the left sub-cavity exit flow and the left sub-cavity return flow by the at least one left-side partitions Pl. Further, it should be noted that the left sub-cavity exit flow may directly exit the left sub-cavity 106A via the outlet 110. The left sub-cavity return flow may be created due to the return of some of the left sub-cavity flow. The left sub-cavity return flow may therefore return towards the inlet 108 and then again merge with the left sub-cavity exit flow.
[035] Similarly, the right sub-cavity 106B may include a right sub-cavity direct path 116A fluidically coupled with the inlet 108 and the outlet 110. It should be noted that the right sub-cavity direct path 116A may be defined between the middle partition P and at least one right-side partitions Pr. The right sub-cavity 106B may further include a right sub-cavity return path 116B fluidically coupled with the inlet 108 and the outlet 110. The right sub-cavity return path 116B may be defined on the right side of the at least one right-side partitions Pr. The right sub-cavity direct path 116A and the right sub-cavity return path 116B may further split therebetween the right sub-cavity flow into a right sub-cavity exit flow and a right sub-cavity return flow, respectively. As such, the fluid flowing via of right sub-cavity 106B may be split into the right sub-cavity exit flow and the right sub-cavity return flow by the at least one right-side partitions Pr. Further, it should be noted that the right sub-cavity exit flow may directly exit the right sub-cavity 106B via the outlet 110. The right sub-cavity return flow may be created due to the return of some of the right sub-cavity flow. The right sub-cavity return flow may therefore return towards the inlet 108 and then again merge with the right sub-cavity exit flow.
[036] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, the left sub-cavity return path 114B may be fluidically coupled with the left sub-cavity direct path 114A via a left cavity proximal junction 118A located in proximity with the inlet 108 and a left cavity distal junction 118B located in proximity with the outlet 110. The left sub-cavity direct path 114A and the left sub-cavity return path 114B may further split therebetween the left sub-cavity flow into the left sub-cavity exit flow and the left sub-cavity return flow, respectively, via the left cavity distal junction 118B. The left sub-cavity direct path 114A and the left sub-cavity return path 114B may merge the left sub-cavity return flow with the left sub-cavity exit flow, via the left cavity proximal junction 118A.
[037] Similarly, as shown in FIG. 1, the right sub-cavity return path 116B may be fluidically coupled with the right sub-cavity direct path 116A via a right cavity proximal junction 120A located in proximity with the inlet 108 and a right cavity distal junction 120B located in proximity with the outlet 110. The right sub-cavity direct path 116A and the right sub-cavity return path 116B may further split therebetween the right sub-cavity flow into the right sub-cavity exit flow and the right sub-cavity return flow, respectively, via the right cavity distal junction 120B. The right sub-cavity direct path 116A and the right sub-cavity return path 116B may merge the right sub-cavity return flow with the right sub-cavity exit flow, via the right cavity proximal junction 120A. This is shown and further explained in detail via FIGs. 3-4.
[038] Referring once again to FIG. 4, the left sub-cavity direct path 114A and the left sub-cavity return path 114B may split therebetween the left sub-cavity flow 306A into a left sub-cavity exit flow 308A and a left sub-cavity return flow 308B, respectively. The left sub-cavity exit flow 308A may directly exit the left sub-cavity 106A via the outlet 110. The left sub-cavity return flow 308B may be created due to the return of some of the left sub-cavity flow 306A. The left sub-cavity return flow 308B may therefore return towards the inlet 108 and then again merge with the left sub-cavity exit flow 308A. Similarly, the right sub-cavity direct path 116A and the right sub-cavity return path 116B may split therebetween the right sub-cavity flow 306B into a right sub-cavity exit flow 310A and a right sub-cavity return flow 310B, respectively. The right sub-cavity exit flow 310A may directly exit the right sub-cavity 106B via the outlet 110. The right sub-cavity return flow 310B may be created due to the return of some of the right sub-cavity flow 306B. The right sub-cavity return flow 310B may therefore return towards the inlet 108 and then again merge with the right sub-cavity exit flow 310A.
[039] FIG. 4 shows the left sub-cavity return flow 308B. As mentioned above, the fluid flows in in two different directions – the exit flow and the return flow. The return flow is clearly visible indicating losses due to viscous frictional force on the contact surfaces. It is also observed that due to this motion, the possibility of a vortex formation inside the plate is initiated and can propagate to become bigger. The image is shown below. The left sub-cavity return flow 308B (also representative of the right sub-cavity return flow 310B is depicted via a vector contour plot 600 illustrated in FIG. 6.
[040] FIG. 4 further shows fluid flow 312 at the left cavity proximal junction 118A. It is observed that the configuration of the cavity 106 allows the fluid to circulate inside the plate increasing its time to heat transfer. The greater the fluid loses its self-potential energy, the more it is able to carry heat from the attached load. The fluid flow 312 at the left cavity proximal junction 118A (also representative of the fluid flow at the right cavity proximal junction 120A) is depicted via a vector contour plot 500 illustrated in FIG. 5.
[041] FIG. 4 further shows fluid flow 314 at the right cavity distal junction 120B. It is observed that the revolving (return fluid flow) fluid becomes dominant in the outlet region of the plate. The flow separation can be observed after the contact between the fluid and metal plate is withered. This is shown in the below image. The fluid flow 314 at the right cavity distal junction 120B (also representative of the fluid flow at the left cavity distal junction 118B) is depicted via a vector contour plot 700 illustrated in FIG. 7.
[042] Referring now to FIG. 8, a schematic view 800 of the heat removing system 100 showing the heat flux distribution along the heat removing system 100, in accordance with some embodiments. The plate, i.e. the heat removing system 100 can function as a vortex generator to introduce heat zones where maximum heat flux can travel through the heat removing system 100, thereby resulting in increase of overall heat transfer capacity of the heat removing system 100. The red region in FIG. 8 depicts the location where the maximum kinetic energy is being utilized by the fluid to overcome the viscous nature of the fluid to flow in the confined fluid domain. This region is approximately 70 percent of the whole area available. This further indicates that the heat transfer in these locations are much greater and can be considered as heat zones where maximum heat flux is travelling through the heat removing system 100.
[043] Referring now to FIG. 9-10, snapshots 900 and 1000 of the heat removing system 100 are illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments. in particular, FIG. 9 illustrates a side view of the heat removing system 100 and FIG. 10 illustrates a top view of the heat removing system 100, in accordance with some embodiments. As shown in FIG. 9, heat removing system 100 includes the first member 102 and the second member 104. The first member 102 and the second member 104 may be made from Aluminum. The first member 102 and the second member 104 may be coupled with each using fasteners 902, such as bolts, and sealed using water resistant sealant to avoid loss of any working fluid. The heat removing system 100 provides low temperature gradient for heat transfer, by extracting heat from the heat zones. The heat transfer occurs via conduction outside the cold plate (i.e. heat removing system 100). Further, as shown in FIG. 10, fans 1002 can be attached to the heat removing system 100 further removal of the heat to the heat sink. For example, three 6-inch cabinet fans 1002 may be connected in between two long C-channel members to mount the fans 1002 and heat sink on these members. The fans 1002 may be fastened to the C-channel members (i.e. to the heat sink) using M3 fasteners. Further, the heatsink, the cold plate, and the C-channel members may be connected together using M6 fasteners. Furthermore, M8 fasteners may be used to close attached the first member 102 with the second member 104. By way of an example, the C-channel members may be made from Aluminum 6082, or steel, or any other suitable metal or alloy.
[044] Referring now to FIG. 11, a schematic view of an apparatus 1100 is illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments. The apparatus 1100 may include an assembly of the heat removing system 100, C-channel members, fans, a heatsink, and a Peltier module is illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments. As shown in FIG. 11, the heat removing system 100 (i.e. the cold plate 100) may be attached to the Peltier module 1106. As will be understood, the Peltier module 1106 may be configured to create a cooling effect using electricity. As such, the heat removed by the cold plate 100 via the fluid is absorbed by the cooling effect created by cold side of the Peltier module 1106. Further, as shown in FIG. 11, the Peltier module 1106 may be conductively coupled with a heatsink 1104. The heatsink 1104, for example, may be a metal plate comprising multiple fins that allow the heat generated by the Peltier module 1106 to be removed from hot side of the Peltier module 1106. The fans 1002 may create air circulation around the heatsink 1104 to thereby remove heat from the heatsink 1104. The entire assembly may be attached and mounted via C-channel members 1102.
[045] FIG. 12-14 illustrate schematic views 1200, 1300, 1400 of other possible configurations of the cavity 106 of the heat removing system 100.
[046] The above disclosure provides for a heat removing system and various techniques for removing heat from hot zones, in particular, in an automobile. The heat removing system causes to induce turbulence to increase heat transfer, through the configuration (geometry) of the cavity of the heat removing system. The heat removing system may use water as the working fluid. The above heat removing system provides for an efficient solution that is made using machined metal components and using only water (irrespective of the dissolved impurities) as the working fluid. Since the working fluid can be any kind of water, the application of the heat removing system is diverse. Further, the heat removing system has a simple construction that can easily machined with the help of a milling machine. Furthermore, the required flow rate is very less, so a low power pump or motor can be used to drive the system.
