A Novel Pin-fin Based Cooling Device for Autonomous Driving High-performance Computers

摘要

in this study, a novel design for a liquid cooler is presented to control the temperature in high-performance processors. Experiments are performed to show the superior performance of the 3D metal printed cooler compared to existing fan heat sinks. A computational fluid dynamics model is additionally developed and validated in this study by experiments. The model is aimed at providing a low cost and fast platform to optimize the presented cooler design in future in order to reach the lowest chip temperature with as low pressure drop as possible.
