Abstract

With the advantages of power savings, increased life expectancy and fast response time over traditional incandescent bulb, LEDs are increasingly used for many applications including automotive, aviation, display, and special lighting applications. Since the high heat generation of LED chips can reduce service life, degrade luminous efficiency, and cause variation of color temperature, many studies have been carried out on the optimization of LED packaging and heat sinks. In this study, a fin expansion type cooling device using heat pipe, instead of a solid aluminum heat sink, was designed for LED security lightings based on thermal resistance analysis. Numerical analysis and experimental validation were carried out to evaluate its cooling performance.
