Water Cooling System

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to ensure adequate thermal management to remove and dissipate the heat produced by a light-emitting diode (LED) and to guarantee reliable and safe operation. Design/methodology/approach A three-dimensional (3-D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was used to analyze the distribution of fluid velocities among microchannels at four different aspect ratios. Findings The results showed that at the same inlet flow rate, the larger the aspect ratio of the microchannels, the better the uniformity of the internal fluid velocity and thus better the heat dissipation performance on the surface of the high-power LED chip. In addition, the thermal performance of a high-power LED water cooling system with four different aspect ratios’ microchannel structures is further studied experimentally. Specifically, the coupling effect between the fluid velocity distribution in the microchannels and the heat dissipation performance of a high-power LED water cooling system is qualitatively analyzed and compared with the simulation results of the fluid velocity distribution. The results fully demonstrated that a larger aspect ratio of the microchannels results in better heat dissipation performance on the surface of the high-power LED chip. Originality/value Optimizing the structural parameters to facilitate a relatively uniform velocity distribution to improve the water cooling system performance may be a key factor to be considered.

This study mainly investigates the influence of electronic water cooling system on high power heat generation device at different cooling water inlets with vortex fins or not, hence, heat dissipation experiments are going to carried out on the conditions of three cooling cases: hollow case I, hollow case II and vortex-fin case. From this experiment, it can be seen that the heat dissipation efficiency of hollow case I is reduced by 10% as compared to that of hollow case II, and the heat dissipation efficiency of vortex-fin case is also reduced by 10% as compared to that of hollow case I, that is, water cooling system with vortex-fin has very excellent effect on heat dissipation.

In order to ensure the reliable and safe operation of the electric driving motor of the articulated dump truck, water cooling system is installed for each motor. For the best performance of the water cooling system, not only the heat transfer should be enhanced to maintain the motor in relatively low temperature, but also the pressure drop in the water cooling system should be reduced to save energy by reducing the power consumption of the pump. In this paper, the numerical simulation of the cooling progress is completed and the temperature and pressure field distribution are obtained. The multi-objective optimization model is established which involves the cooling system structure, temperature field distribution and pressure field distribution. To improve the computational efficiency, the surrogate model of the simulation about the cooling process is established based on the Response Surface Methodology (RSM). After the multi-objective optimization, the Pareto optimal set is obtained. The proper design point, which could make the average temperature and pressure drop of the cooling system relative desirable, is chosen from the Pareto optimal set.
