Abstract Liquid metal owns the highest thermal conductivity among all the currently available fluid materials. This property enables it to be a powerful coolant for the thermal management of large power device or high flux chip. In this paper, a high-efficiency heat dissipation system based on the electromagnetic driven rotational flow of liquid metal was demonstrated. The velocity distribution of the liquid metal was theoretically analyzed and numerically simulated. The results showed that the velocity was distributed unevenly along longitudinal section and the maximum velocity appears near the anode. On the temperature distribution profile of the heat dissipation system, the temperature on the electric heater side was much higher than the other regions and the role of the rotated liquid metal was to homogenize the temperature of the system. In addition, the thermal resistance model of the experimental device was established, and several relationships such as thermal resistance-power curve were experimentally measured. The heating power could be determined from the temperature-power relationship graph once the maximum control temperature was given. The heat dissipation method introduced in the paper provides a novel way for fabricating compact chip cooling system.

By the development of high power LED for solid states lighting, the requirement for driving current has increased critically, thereby increasing power dissipation. Heat flux corresponds to power dissipation is mainly generated in p-n junction of LED, so the effective removal of heat is the key factor for long lifetime of LED chip. In this study, we newly proposed the silicon package for high power LED using MEMS technology and estimated its heat dissipation characteristic. Our silicon package structure is composed of base and reflector cup. The role of base is that settle LED chip at desired position and supply electrical interconnection for LED operation, and finally transfer the heat from junction region to outside. For improved heat transfer, we introduced the heat conductive metal plated trench structure at the opposite side of LED attached side. The depth and the diameter of trench were 150 and 100um, respectively. Copper with high thermal conductivity than silicon was filled in trench by electroplating and the thickness of copper was about 100um. Reflector cup was formed by anisotropic wet etching and then, silicon package platform could be fabricated by eutectic bonding between base and reflector cup. The thermal resistance of silicon package was about 6 to 7K/W from junction to case, and also, thermal resistance reduction of 0.64K/W was done by metal plated trench. This result could be comparable to that of other high power LED package. Our silicon package platform is easy to be expanded into array and wafer level package. So, it is suitable for future high efficiency and low cost package.

Tremendous attentions have been focused on thermal management to control the temperature of many advanced integrated electronic devices. The liquid metal cooling has recently been validated as a highly effective method to dissipate heat from hot chips. In this study, a practical design and implementation of a buoyancy effect driven liquid metal cooling device for the automatic thermal management of hot chips in a closed cabinet were demonstrated. The principles, especially the theory for convective thermal resistance of liquid metal cooling was provided for guiding optimization of the device. A model prototype was then fabricated and tested. Experiments were performed when two simulated hot chips in the closed cabinet worked at different heat loads and different angles with the horizontal plane. It was shown that for the one chip case, the cooling device could maintain the chip temperature to below 85.1 °C at the ambient temperature 20 °C when the heat load was about 122 W. The cooling performance of the device could achieve better when the angle between the cabinet and the horizontal plane varied from 0 °C to 90 °C. With two chips working simultaneously, both chips had close temperature and hot spot did not appear easily when subject to large power, which will help reduce thermal stress and enhance reliability of the system. The practical value of the self-driven liquid metal cooling device is rather evident. Given its reliability, simplicity, and efficiency, such device can possibly be used for heat dissipation of multichip in closed space in the future.

Broad societal needs have focused attention on technologies that can effectively dissipate huge amount of heat from high power density electronic devices. Liquid metal cooling, which has been proposed in recent years, is fast emerging as a novel and promising solution to meet the requirements of high heat flux optoelectronic devices. In this paper, a design and implementation of a practical liquid metal cooling device for heat dissipation of high performance CPUs was demonstrated. GaInSn alloy with the melting point around 10°C was adopted as the coolant and a tower structure was implemented so that the lowest coolant amount was used. In order to better understand the design procedure and cooling capability, several crucial design principles and related fundamental theories were demonstrated and discussed. In the experimental study, two typical prototypes have been fabricated to evaluate the cooling performance of this liquid metal cooling device. The compared results with typical water cooling and commercially available heat pipes show that the present device could achieve excellent cooling capability. The thermal resistance could be as low as 0.13°C/W, which is competitive with most of the latest advanced CPU cooling devices in the market. Although the cost (about 70 dollars) is still relatively high, it could be significantly reduced to less than 30 dollars with the optimization of flow channel. Considering its advantages of low thermal resistance, capability to cope with extremely high heat flux, stability, durability, and energy saving characteristic when compared with heat pipe and water cooling, this liquid metal cooling device is quite practical for future application.

In this paper, a natural convection micro cooling system with a capillary microgroove evaporator is proposed. An experimental study on the characteristics of thermal resistance, pressure drop and heat transfer of the cooling system was carried out. Experimental results indicate that the liquid fill ratio has a significant influence on thermal resistance and heat transfer in the cooling system. Increasing system’s cooling capacity at higher input power depends on decreasing the thermal resistance between the outer surfaces of the condenser and ambient environment. Compared with a flat miniature heat pipe (FMHP) and a current fan-cooled radiator for CPU chip of Pentium IV, the present micro cooling system has a stronger heat dissipation capacity. Its best cooling performance at a surface temperature of heat source below 373K reaches 1.68×106W/m2 and the maximum heat transportation capacity is 131.8W. The novel kind of cooling system is suitable for remote cooling of those electronic parts with micro size, high power and thermal sensitivity.

The vascular-like networks combined with liquid metal alloy are used to design the high efficiency thermal management system for Electronics.

The design of a cooling system is critical in power converters based on wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductors. The use of gallium nitride enhancement-mode high-electron-mobility transistors (GaN e-HEMTs) is particularly challenging due to their small size and high power capability. In this paper, we model, study and compare the different heat dissipation systems proposed for high power density GaN-based power converters. Two dissipation systems are analysed in detail: bottom-side dissipation using thermal vias and top-side dissipation using different thermal interface materials. The effectiveness of both dissipation techniques is analysed using MATLAB/Simulink and PLECS. Furthermore, the impact of the dissipation system on the parasitic elements of the converter is studied using advanced design systems (ADS). The experimental results of the GaN-based converters show the effectiveness of the analysed heat dissipation systems and how top-side cooled converters have the lowest parasitic inductance among the studied power converters.
