- Integrated thermal solution – the incorporation of four pure copper heat pipes and an copper heat sink
-
INS8335C, with its dynamic 4-core 45W core i7-3610QE processor, demands an equal high level thermal solution. To achieve maximum heat dissipation, the design and implementation of heat pipes is the golden key. In this case, a copper heat sink and passively cooled enclosure is implemented to establish an effective dissipation environment. The structure of four pure copper heat pipes is to ensure supreme thermal efficiency. The heat pipes are capable of prompt dissipation of the heat generated by the CPU’s inner core while it’s computing. According to Perfectron’s testing result, each pure copper heat pipe has the ability to dissipate 9w of heat. The combination of four heat pipes pushes the dissipation ability to a new level. Our tailor-made, precision-aimed integral structural heat sink and embedded heat pipes constitute an excellent fanless thermal solution. When the CPU hits 100% full potency, the implementation of four 6mm (minimum) pure copper heat pipes can keep it running at full speed – 2.3 Ghz!
- Effective cooling devices for maximum heat dissipation
-
Perfectron’s unique heat sink and heat pipe are designed with precision. Each of the key heat-dissipating components is tailor-made in accordance with different interior and exterior structure. Unlike traditional solutions that utilize aluminum as the dissipating media for CPU and fin. We insist on incorporating 99% pure copper heat spreader, which is eight times higher in density than aluminum. Our tailor-made pure copper heat spreader is treated with the most precise CNC technology, cutting four 6.1mm wide track so that the 6mm wide heat pipes can fit seamlessly. Compared with conventional solid heat conductors, such as aluminum, copper, granite, and graphite, of which thermal conductivity ranges from only 250 W/m•K to 1,500 W/m•K, Perfectorn’s effective heat pipe design, with impressively high thermal conductivity (5000 W/m•K to 200000 W/m•K) that is 40 times higher than standard aluminum, is guaranteed to charge the system to the maximum turbo speed with minimum overall impact.
- Installation Instruction
-
Procedure:
The thermal pad is first placed directly on top of the CPU die to create a tight connection between the two. The custom made heat spreader, with four semi-circle trails precisely CNC milled, houses the four pure copper heat pipes securely. The top layer is a flat aluminum heat sink that can achieve the most effective heat dissipation solution.
1.Thermal Pad
Thermal pad is widely used to aid the conduction of heat away from the component that needs to be cooled down (e.g. CPU) and into the heat sink.- To determine the effectiveness of a thermal pad, the unit “K” is applied. Most of the other companies in the embedded market employ materials under K10 for economic reason. Perfectron, with the target of reaching CPU full speed without throttling, incorporates only K17 military grade as our principle specification.
- The thinner the thermal pad is the better effect it creates. The thickness of the thermal pad is crucial, be it too thick, the heat will cumulate and force the heat dissipated by the CPU to flow back.
- With precise calculation, the thermal pad we implemented is 3mm in height.
2.Copper & Aluminum Passive Heat Spreader
Heat spreader is known for improving the distribution of heat. Our tailor-made heat spreader is made with copper and aluminum. Four CNC designed semi-circle trail make sure that the heat pipes can be housed securely with the heat spreader.- The outer layer contains 96% of aluminum, the height is 23.5mm and it weighs 142g.
- The inner layer contains 99.9% of copper, the height is 23.5mm and it weighs 173g.
- Thermal paste is applied to give mechanical strength to the bond between heat sink and heat source. It eliminates air from the surface area and optimizes the heat transfer between the two contact surfaces.
- Absorb heat quicker than aluminum owing to higher heat conductivity efficiency. (Copper: 402; Aluminum: 266)
- Excellent performance in heat absorption
3.Copper Heat Pipe
Heat pipes are capable of transferring the heat from the source (evaporator) to the heat sink (condenser) over relatively long distances through the latent heat of vaporization of a working fluid. A typical heat pipe consists of a vessel that is first vacuumed, then charged with a working fluid and sealed hermetically. When the heat pipe is heated at one end, the working fluid evaporates from liquid to vapor (phase change). The vapor travels through the hollow core of the heat pipe to the other end at near sonic speed, where heat is being removed by the aluminum heat sinks at the sides.- To achieve maximum heat conduction and dissipation, four pure copper heat pipes are implemented.
- The diameter of each heat pipe is 8mm.
- Each pure copper heat pipe has the ability to dissipate 9w of heat.
- Each heat pipe contains 99% of copper.

To meet the demands of customer’s extended temperature requirements, the whole thermal solution of INS8335C simultaneously embraces two heat transfer methods, heat conduction and heat convection. For heat conduction, the solution utilizes a copper heat spreader on the bottom layer which directly contact with the processor and chipset. Heat is then transferred to upper aluminum heat sink. Regarding to heat convection, the temperature differences caused by high and low fin design forms a mild airflow that could bring away heat efficiently. Fan can also be an auxiliary by placing an appropriate sized fan on top of the heat sink. Breakdown drawing is provided as below.
