Abstract

A heat-dissipating system for high-power cabinet is provided, which comprises: a cabinet; at least one main air duct, which is formed in the cabinet with a first opening and a second opening, and a first heat-generating assembly, a second heat-generating assembly and at least one first fan, which are mounted in the at least one main air duct, wherein the first fan is mounted between the first heat-generating assembly and the second heat-generating assembly; and the outlet of the first fan faces the first heat-generating assembly, airflow enters the main air duct from the first opening of the main air duct, flows through the second heat-generating assembly, an inlet of the first fan, an outlet of the first fan, and the first heat-generating assembly in sequence, and finally is discharged out of the cabinet from the second opening of the main air duct cabinet.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A heat-dissipating system for high-power cabinet, comprising: a cabinet, which has a cuboidal shape; at least one main air duct with a first opening and a second opening, which is formed in the cabinet, the at least one main of duct comprising independent air ducts, and a first heat-generating assembly; a second heat-generating assembly and at least one first fan, which are mounted in of the at least one main air duct, the first fan is located between the first heat-generating assembly and the second heat-generating assembly; and an outlet of the first fan faces towards the first heat-generating assembly, airflow in the main air duct flows from the first opening to the second heat-generating assembly, an inlet of the first fan, the outlet of the first fan, and the first heat-generating assembly in sequence, and finally is discharged out of the cabinet from the second opening of the main air duct of the cabinet; wherein the first heat-generating assembly is an IGBT power module, the second heat-generating assembly is a reactor, and the first heat-generating assembly and the second heat-generating assembly are both electronic assemblies used in the Static Var Compensation system, wherein a heat amount from the first heat-generating assembly is larger than a heat amount from by the second heat-generating assembly; the first heat-generating assembly and the second heat-generating assembly are both electronic assemblies used in the power system.

2. The heat-dissipating system of claim 1 , wherein the first heat-generating assembly comprises a case and a heat sink inside the case, and the outlet of the first fan is in sealed connection with the case.

3. The heat-dissipating system of claim 2 , wherein the heat-dissipating system further comprises an air-guide duct mounted between the case of the heat sink and the second opening of the main air duct, and the air-guide duct is in sealed connection with the case of the heat sink, the airflow flowing through the heat sink is guided by the air-guide duct to be discharged from the second opening.

4. The heat-dissipating system of claim 1 , wherein the second opening of the main air duct is defined at least one of the top surface of the cabinet and the side surface of the cabinet far away from the ground for placing the cabinet.

5. The heat-dissipating system of claim 1 , wherein the first opening of the main air duct is defined at least one of the bottom surface of the cabinet and on the side surface of the cabinet near the ground for placing the cabinet.

6. The heat-dissipating system of claim 1 , wherein the first fan is a variable frequency fan.

7. The heat-dissipating system of claim 1 , wherein the heat-dissipating system comprises a plurality of first fans.

8. The heat-dissipating system of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of first fans are arranged in mirror symmetry.

9. The heat-dissipating system of claim 1 , wherein the heat-dissipating system further comprises at least one assistant air duct, which is provided in the cabinet and separated from the main air duct, the assistant air duct has a third opening and a fourth opening, and at least one third heat-generating assembly and at least one second fan for cooling the third heat-generating assembly are provided in the assistant air duct, the airflow enters into the assistant air duct from the third opening, and flows through the second fan, the third heat-generating assembly, and finally is discharged out of the fourth opening.

10. The heat-dissipating system of claim 9 , wherein the outlet wind direction of the fourth opening is the same as the outlet wind direction of the second opening.

11. The heat-dissipating system of claim 9 , wherein the fourth opening of the assistant air duct is defined at least one of the top surface of the cabinet and the side surface of the cabinet far away from the ground for placing the cabinet.

12. The heat-dissipating system of claim 9 , wherein the third opening of the assistant air duct is defined at least one of the side surface of the cabinet and the bottom surface of the cabinet near the ground for placing the cabinet.

13. The heat-dissipating system of claim 9 , wherein the first fan is a centrifugal fan, and the second fan is an axial fan.

14. The heat-dissipating system of claim 9 , wherein the second fan is a variable frequency fan.

15. The heat-dissipating system of claim 9 , wherein the third heat-generating assembly is a capacitor bank.
