Abstract

A heat dissipation system and a making method thereof are disclosed in accordance with a preferred embodiment. The heat dissipation system mainly includes a body, a cover, and a working fluid. The body includes an evaporation chamber having a first side entryway and a first side outlet, a condensation chamber having a second side entryway and a second side outlet, an elongated evaporation passage configured for intercommunicating the first side outlet with the second side entryway, and an elongated condensation passage configured for intercommunicating the second side outlet with the first side entryway. The cover is hermetically secured to the body. The working fluid is contained in the body.

Claims

1. A heat dissipation system, comprising:

a body comprising;

an evaporation chamber having a first side entryway and a first side outlet, the evaporation chamber comprising a first interior sidewall and a first exterior sidewall opposite to the first interior sidewall, and a plurality of first spacer plates alternately extending from the first interior and exterior sidewalls to form a long passage inside the evaporation chamber;

a condensation chamber having a second side entryway and a second side outlet, the condensation chamber comprising a plurality of second spacer plates for forming a long passage inside the condensation chamber, each of the second spacer plates defining at least one opening cavity;

an elongated evaporation passage intercommunicating the first side outlet with the second side entryway; and

an elongated condensation passage intercommunicating the second side outlet with the first side entryway;

a cover hermetically secured to the body and facing towards the at least one opening cavity of each of the second spacer plates inside the condensation chamber, the cover defining a plurality of airflow orifices each fluidly communicating with the at least one cavity of one respective second spacer plate; and

a working fluid contained in the body.

2. The heat dissipation system of claim 1, wherein the first spacer plates are parallel to one another and are arranged regularly inside the evaporation chamber.

3. The heat dissipation system of claim 1, wherein the second spacer plates are parallel to one another and are arranged regularly inside the condensation chamber.

4. The heat dissipation system of claim 1, wherein the condensation chamber comprises a second interior sidewall and a second exterior sidewall opposite to the second interior sidewall, the second spacer plates alternately extending from the second interior and exterior sidewalls.

5. The heat dissipation system of claim 1, further comprising a plurality of fins formed on the cover adjacent the airflow orifices.

6. The heat dissipation system of claim 1, further comprising a fan disposed adjacent the condensation chamber.

7. The heat dissipation system of claim 1, further comprising a wick applied to inner walls of the condensation passage.

8. The heat dissipation system of claim 1, further comprising a pump disposed in the condensation chamber for accelerating circulation of the working fluid between the condensation chamber and the evaporation chamber.
