Abstract

The peltier thermoelectric module are used to cool the heat generated by electronic equipment. In order to increase the efficiency of the peltier thermoelectric module, the heat must be released to the outside. A heat sink is used to discharge such heat to the outside. in this paper, two types of heat sinks with internal tunnels were designed. And the heating and cooling performance of the heat sink with internal tunnel structure was compared and analyzed through ANSYS. The heat sink of the A type had better heat transfer than the heat sink of the B type. Which is about 70% improved.
