Types and advantages of heat pipe

Release Time:2024-01-17


In order to achieve different application requirements, different types of heat pipes have appeared in the market. Among them, the more common materials are steel, steel and aluminum composite, copper, copper and aluminum composite and stainless steel. Due to the different materials, the performance of the heat pipe is also different.

 

Let's understand the main advantages of copper cooling pipes. From the overall point of view, its advantages include two aspects: it has strong compression resistance, and it is more convenient to implement installation and maintenance, and the appearance looks more beautiful; second, the cost is not high, and it is generally used Convection heat dissipation, so it can significantly improve the heat removal effect.

 

Another popular heat pipe is made of aluminum alloy. From the material analysis, the advantages of aluminum alloy is also very prominent, not only the net weight is lighter, but also the heating aging is fast, but also has strong processing performance and heat transfer performance. Therefore, the performance of the device can be greatly improved in the application of the heat sink. In addition, its material is lighter, in the process of transportation and installation are more simple.

 

In addition, the heat dissipation pipe made of aluminum alloy material can always maintain good performance in the process of long-term use, because after anodic oxidation treatment, a layer of maintenance film may be generated on the surface of the material to avoid oxidation of aluminum, so as to play a certain anti-corrosion effect. When these materials are used together, they can also reduce the amount and save energy. Moreover, aluminum can be extruded into various shapes, so it is more advantageous for appearance design.

 

In addition to the material to pay more attention to, in fact, also take into account the structure of the heat pipe and installation method. At present, the common installation methods mainly include frame mobile and frame support. When the frame is mobile, the heat dissipation pipe is directly welded on the frame box, so the overall structure is relatively simple, and is generally used in a heat medium or a refrigerant whose temperature does not exceed 180 degrees. The frame support type is generally used in the heat medium above 180 degrees.

 

In short, the material used in the heat pipe is different, which may directly affect the heat removal performance. Therefore, the quality of the selected material is very important for the heat pipe.
