For internal water cooling systems which are airtight, the corrosion of the hollow copper conductor can be prevented through keeping foreign oxygen and carbon dioxide from entering the system, and the amount of oxygen in the internal water can be lowered by blowing high purity nitrogen. For systems not airtight, the corrosion of the hollow copper conductor can be inhibited through lowering the amount of oxygen to some extent by sealing and increasing pH value by processing part of cooling water with bypass small flow sodium-type mix-bed.展开更多

Considering the intrinsic ultralow lattice thermal conductivity, the enhancement of TE performance in CuzS should be achieved through improving its electrical transport properties. To achieve this goal, lithium element was doped into CuzS in this study. A series of Cu2_xLixS samples with different Li contents (x = 0, 0.005, 0.010, 0.050, and 0.100) was synthesized by the melting-annealing method. When x 〈 0.05, the Cuz_xLixS samples are stable and pure phases, having the same monoclinic structure with the pristine Cu2S at room temperature. The electrical conductivities in the Cu2_xLixS samples are greatly improved with the Li-doping content increasing due to the enhanced carrier concentrations. Meanwhile, doping Li into CuzS increases the ionic activation energy and lessens the influence of mobile Cu ions on the heat-carrying phonons. Thus, the thermal conductivities of the Li-doped Cu2S samples increase. A maximal figure of merit (zT) of 0.84 at 900 K is obtained in Cul.99Lio.018, about 133% improvement as compared with that in Cu2S matrix.展开更多
