HEAT DIFFUSION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240011717 titled 'HEAT DIFFUSION DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a heat diffusion device that includes a housing with an internal space, a working medium, and two wicks. The device also includes a gas-impermeable partition wall positioned in the internal space, separating the two wicks. The partition wall is connected to the inner surface of the housing, creating a vapor flow path between the wicks and the partition wall.
- The device is designed to diffuse heat efficiently.
- The housing has two inner wall surfaces that face each other.
- The working medium is contained within the internal space.
- The first and second wicks are located within the internal space.
- The partition wall separates the first and second wicks.
- The partition wall is connected to the housing, creating a vapor flow path.
Potential Applications:
- Thermal management systems in electronic devices.
- Heat transfer systems in automotive engines.
- Cooling systems in industrial machinery.
Problems Solved:
- Efficient heat diffusion and transfer.
- Prevention of gas leakage.
- Enhanced thermal management in confined spaces.
Benefits:
- Improved heat dissipation.
- Increased thermal efficiency.
- Enhanced reliability and performance of heat-sensitive components.
- Compact design for space-constrained applications.
Original Abstract Submitted
a heat diffusion device including: a housing defining an internal space and that has a first inner wall surface and a second inner wall surface that face each other in a thickness direction; a working medium in the internal space; a first wick and a second wick in the internal space; and a partition wall that is gas-impermeable positioned in the internal space such that, in a plan view of the internal space in the thickness direction, the partition wall is interposed between the first wick and the second wick, and the partition wall has a first end portion and a second end portion, the second end portion of the partition wall being connected to an inner surface of the housing so as to define a vapor flow path between at least one of the first wick and the partition wall or the second wick and the partition wall.
