Research on Rapid Cooling Technology for High Temperature Copper Parts

In high voltage and high current fast discharge devices, copper conductors that carry high current generate significant heat and require rapid cooling to reduce temperature. In this article a cooling test system using active heat pipe cooling technology is developed based on the nonlinear temperature rise distribution and cooling requirements of copper parts in use. The cooling test system has the function of simulating the temperature rise distribution of copper parts and can quickly cool the copper parts from 400℃ to below 100℃ within 50 s. It has good cooling effect, which verifies the feasibility of using active heat pipe cooling technology on the heating components of high-voltage and high current fast discharge devices.
