Description
- 1. Technical Field
- The present disclosure relates to heat spreaders and, more particularly, to a heat spreader with a vapor chamber having good heat transfer capability and with small thickness.
- 2. Description of Related Art
- Electronic components, such as central processing units (CPUs) comprise numerous circuits operating at high speeds and generating substantial heat. Under most circumstances, it is necessary to cool the CPUs to maintain safe operating conditions and assure that the CPUs function properly and reliably. In the past, various approaches have been used to cool electronic components.
- A heat spreader with a vapor chamber is usually used to help heat dissipation for electronic components. The heat spreader generally includes a base, a cover mounted on the base and a sealed chamber defined between the base and the cover. Moderate working liquid is contained in the chamber. The base has a wick structure spreading on the whole inner surface thereof, and the cover has a wick structure spreading on the whole inner surface thereof, too. During operation, the base absorbs heat from the electronic components, and the working liquid is heated into vapor in the chamber. The vapor flows towards the cover and dissipates the heat to the cover, then condenses into liquid and returns back to the base by the drive (i.e., capillary action) of the wick structures to continue a phase-change cycle.
- However, different types of wick structures have different capability, e.g. sintered metal powder has good evaporating efficiency but large flow impedance to the working liquid; comparatively, metal mesh has less flow impedance but worse evaporating efficiency. This will adversely affect heat transfer efficiency of the heat spreader.
- What is needed, therefore, is a heat spreader with a vapor chamber which has good heat transfer capability.
- Many aspects of the present embodiments can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present embodiments. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.

FIG. 4 is a cross-section view of the heat spreader ofFIG. 1 , taken along a line IV-IV thereof. -
FIG. 5 is an enlarged view of a part V of the heat spreader ofFIG. 4 . - Referring to
FIGS. 1-2 , a heat spreader in accordance with the disclosure comprises abase 10 with a cavity (not labeled) defined therein and acover 20 mounted on thebase 10 to hermetically seal the cavity of thebase 10, thereby defining achamber 12 enveloped by thecover 20 and thebase 10. A predetermined quantity of working liquid, such as water, alcohol, olefin and so on is contained in thechamber 12 for transferring heat from thebase 10 to thecover 20 by a phase change of the working liquid. Thechamber 12 is evacuated for easy evaporation of the working liquid. The heat spreader further comprises afirst wick structure 30 attached to an inner surface of thebase 10, asecond wick structure 40 attached to an inner surface of thecover 20 and athird wick structure 50 formed on a central portion of the inner surface of thebase 10 and surrounded by thefirst wick structure 30. - Also referring to
FIG. 3 , thebase 10 and thecover 20 are both made of metal with good heat conductivity, such as aluminum, copper, or alloys thereof. Thebase 10 has a bottom (outer) face for thermally contacting a heat-generating component (not shown) to absorb heat produced by the heat-generating component. Generally, the heat-generating component is attached to a center portion of the bottom face of thebase 10. Thebase 10 has aflange 14 circumferentially extending outwardly and horizontally from a top of thebase 10. Theflange 14 of thebase 10 hermetically engages with a circumference of a bottom (inner) face of thecover 20. - Also referring to
FIGS. 4-5 , thefirst wick structure 30 spreads on the inner surface of thebase 10 and faces thecover 20. A rectangular, hollowreceiving portion 32 for receiving thethird wick structure 50 is defined in thefirst wick structure 30 at a position corresponding to the central portion of thebase 10. In other words, thereceiving portion 32 is an opening extending through a central portion of thefirst wick structure 30. Thefirst wick structure 30 can be selected from structures having low flow impedance such as metal mesh, carbon nanotube array, bundle of fibers and so on. - The
second wick structure 40 spreads on the inner face of thecover 20 and has a rectangular configuration. A circumference of a bottom of thesecond wick structure 40 tightly engages with a circumferential end of thefirst wick structure 30, which is oriented upwardly. Furthermore, pores in the circumference of the bottom of thesecond wick structure 40 and pores in the circumferential end of thefirst wick structure 30 communicate with each other; therefore, the working liquid can flow smoothly from thesecond wick structure 40 to thefirst wick structure 30. Thesecond wick structure 40 can be selected from structures having low flow impedance capability such as metal mesh, carbon nanotube array, bundle of fibers and so on. - The
third wick structure 50 has a configuration identical to that of thereceiving portion 32 of thefirst wick structure 30, thereby being fitly received in thereceiving portion 32 of thefirst wick structure 30. Thethird wick structure 50 directly contacts the inner face of thebase 10. A circumferential end of thethird wick structure 50 tightly engages with thefirst wick structure 30, whereby pores in the first andthird wick structures third wick structure 50 can be selected from structures having good evaporating efficiency such as sintered metal powder. Furthermore, thethird wick structure 50 can be selected from other types of wick structures having a large evaporating surface, more specifically, a large surface area to volume ratio. - During operation of the heat spreader, the heat-generating component is attached to the
base 10 under thethird wick structure 50, and thebase 10 absorbs the heat produced by the heat-generating component. The working liquid saturated in thethird wick structure 50 is heated into vapor. The vapor escapes from thethird wick structure 50, and is quickly diffused into thewhole chamber 12 of the heat spreader. When the vapor contacts thesecond wick structure 40 and thecover 20, it gives out heat and condenses into liquid. The condensed working liquid then flows back to thethird wick structure 50 throughsecond wick structure 40 and thefirst wick structure 30 which connects with thesecond wick structure 40 and thethird wick structure 50. - As mentioned above, the
third wick structure 50 having good evaporating efficiency is positioned on the inner surface of thebase 10, particularly on the center portion of the inner surface of thebase 10 corresponding to the heat-generating component. Meanwhile, thefirst wick structure 30 and thesecond wick structure 40 having low resistance to the working liquid are placed allover the inner surfaces of the heat spreader except where thethird wick structure 50 occupies, for transferring the condensed working liquid. Therefore, the working liquid saturated in thethird wick structure 50 can be quickly heated into vapor to bring the heat to thesecond wick structure 40 and thecover 20, and the condensed working liquid at thesecond wick structure 40 and thecover 20 can be effectively and quickly transferred back to thethird wick structure 50 through thesecond wick structure 40 and thefirst wick structure 30, whereby the heat transfer efficiency of the heat spreader is improved. Additionally, because thethird wick structure 50 is wholly received in thereceiving portion 32 of thefirst wick structure 30, the heat spreader can be designed to have a small thickness since less space is needed for accommodating the first andthird wick structures - It is believed that the disclosure and its advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention or sacrificing all of its material advantages, the examples hereinbefore described merely being exemplary or exemplary embodiments of the invention.
