Abstract
In this work, a novel wickless heat pipe fabricated using the roll-bond process and called the roll-bond flat thermosyphon was proposed for electronic component cooling due to its slim and large-size configuration, low-cost, and mass-production capable. The thermal performance of roll-bond flat thermosyphon was investigated through the tests in terms of 3 typical structures (stagger, cross and align) and 4 filling ratios (5%, 10%, 20%, and 40%) under the increasing heat power, and evaluated with the effective thermal conductivity and the maximum heat transfer capacity. The phenomena of boiling regime evolution, geyser effect, liquid entrainment and dry-out, can be found through the temperature responses in the cases of progressive filling ratios and heating powers. The cross-structured sample was found to behave the worst among the three structures due to its blocked up-flowing inflated circuits. The highest effectivity thermal conductivity of 22404 (W/K·m) was found in the 5%-align sample, however, accompanied with early dry-out. The heat transfer capability is positive correlated to the filling ratio, and maximum heat transfer capacity of 100 W (heat flux of 14.9 (kW/m2)) was recorded in the stagger-40% sample. The 20%-stagger sample is recommended as the optimum design, due to its more stable and relative high thermal conductivity, which is peaked to 16019 (W/K·m), and averaged at 12616 (W/K·m) in the range of 0–90 W.
