Abstract

The heat transfer over a radial heat sink, adapted for LED (light emitting diode) downlights, was experimentally and analytically investigated. We added radiation heat transfer into a previous calculation that neglected this factor. The numerical results agreed well with experimental results. Parametric studies were performed to compare the effects of the geometric parameters (fin length, fin height, ideal number of fins) and the operating parameter (heat flux) on the average heat-sink temperature from the heat-sink array. We found the fin length that maximizes the heattransfer performance. As the emissivity increased, the effect of geometric parameters on the radiation heat transfer decreased.

본 연구는 LED 조명기구와 같은 원형 모양에 적합한 원형 히트싱크의 주위의 열유동을 실험 및 해석적으로 분석하였다. 기존 복사 열전달을 고려하지 않은 상관식을 이용하여, 추가적으로 복사 열전달을 해석적으로 계산하였다. 본 해석 모델의 타당성을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 이 모델을 바탕으로 휜의 형상 및 열유속을 인자로 하여 히트싱크 평균 온도의 변화를 살펴보았다. 그 결과 열전달 성능을 최대로 할 수 있는 최적 휜의 길이가 존재하였고, 방사율이 클수록 형상 인자의 변화가 복사 열전달 변화에 미치는 영향이 상대적으로 감소하였다.
