Abstract

As the development of high efficiency and high flux density LEDs, the trend of illumination lamp industry transfers from conventional-lamps to the LED-lamps. For energy efficiencies, LED lamps are superior to the conventional lamps, but they have heat problems. Especially, the heat problems are severe for the high luminance lamps. They degrade the soldering point of the metal PCB, and shorten the life cycle of LEDs. So, the solution of the heat sinking is very important to develop high luminance LED lamps. This study suggested a new method to solve the heat problems for high luminance LED lamps, and developed a LED lamp which has 1200W power. In this study, a water jacket is installed to the LED lamp, and the cooing water is circulated by a water pump.

반도체 제조기술의 발달로 고효율 및 고휘도의 LED가 개발됨에 따라 재래식 조명들로부터 LED를 이용한 조명으로 조명산업이 이동하는 추세이다. LED 조명등은 에너지 효율이 재래식 조명보다 뛰어나지만 많은 열이 발생한다는 단점이 있다. 특히 대형 LED 조명등에서는 이러한 발열문제가 심각한 실정으로, LED에 의한 메탈기판의 열은 납땜 부분을 열화시켜 조명등의 수명을 단축시키는 주된 원인이 된다. 따라서 대형 조명등을 개발하기 위해서는 이러한 열 문제를 해결하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 대형 LED 조명등에서 열문제를 해결하기 위한 방법을 제시하였고, 제시한 방식으로 1200W급 LED 조명등을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 이용한 방법은 LED 조명등에 워터재킷을 설치하여 냉각수를 채웠으며, 소형의 수중펌프를 이용하여 냉각수를 순환시키는 방법을 이용하였다.
