Cooler and cooling device
View Patent ↗The cooling device comprises a heat exchange unit provided in a cooling water flow path. The heat exchange unit has a plate part in the form of a plate and multiple fins erected on the plate face of the plate part, and provided in the manner that the plate face of the plate part extends along the cooling water flow path and the cooling water runs through the space between the fins. The multiple fins are each in the form of a rhombic column and provided on the plate part in a lattice pattern in the manner that the longer diagonal of the rhombic column extends along the cooling water flow path.
1. A cooler provided in a cooling water flow path for heat exchange with cooling water, comprising:
a plate configured to have a plate face facing the cooling water; and
fins coupled to the plate face in a lattice pattern and provided in the cooling water flow path,
wherein the fins are in the form of a rhombic column with a longer diagonal of a rhombus of the rhombic column extending in the direction of the cooling water flow path, and
the fins satisfy 0.270≦b/a≦0.325 in which a (mm) is a length of the longer diagonal of the rhombus of the rhombic column and b (mm) is a length of a shorter diagonal of the rhombus.
2. The cooler according to claim 1 , wherein the fins satisfy 1.0≦a≦7.0 and 0.6≦t≦2.0 in which a (mm) is the length of the longer diagonal of the rhombus of the rhombic column and t (mm) is a spatial distance between the fins.
