As shown in (b) , the refrigerant sequentially condensed in the refrigerant passages flows out to the outflow side communication portion along the bottom surface 398 of each small passage. The refrigerant condensed here has a temperature lower than that of the vapor refrigerant, and since the condensed refrigerant covers the bottom surface 398, the vapor refrigerant flowing through each small passage is the upper surface 395 and the side surface 3 of the small passage.

る。Next, the operation of the first embodiment will be described. As shown by the circulation of the refrigerant in FIG. 1, the refrigerant generated by the heat generated from the IGBT module 2 and being boiled, becomes bubbles and rises in the respective vapor passages 9, and flows from the outlet 35 of the refrigerant tank 3 to the connecting pipe. After flowing into the inflow chamber 51, the inflow chamber further flows into the inflow side communication portion 44 of each heat radiation pipe 39 and is distributed to the refrigerant passage 42 of each heat radiation pipe 39. Here, in FIG. 1, it is simplified and described by one line. The vapor refrigerant flowing in each refrigerant passage 42 is blown by the cooling fan 5 (not shown) and is condensed on the inner wall surface of the refrigerant passage 42 and the surface of the inner fin 391 which are at a low temperature to release condensation latent heat to form droplets.

The condensate that has flowed out to the outflow chamber of the refrigerant flows into the condensate passage 10 from the inflow port 36 of the refrigerant tank 3, flows down the condensate passage 10, and then passes through the communication passage 38 in the end cap again to each vapor passage 9 Is supplied to. (Effect of the First Embodiment) As shown in FIG. 7A, the inner fin 391 has a plurality of slits 392, and causes the condensed and liquefied refrigerant to drop to the lower part in the refrigerant passage 42.
A region in which the condensed and liquefied coolant flows can be formed on the lower side in the coolant passage 42, and a region above the region can be a region in which the vapor-phase coolant flows. As a result, it is possible to prevent the bottom surface of the small passage formed by each condensing fin in the refrigerant passage 42 from being covered with the condensed refrigerant. That is, in FIG. 7B, the vapor refrigerant does not only heat the bottom surface 398 as well as the top surface 395 and the side surfaces 396 and 397 among the small passages formed by the top surface 395, the side surfaces 396 and 397, and the bottom surface 398. Can be told. As a result, it is possible to prevent the heat dissipation area where the vapor refrigerant can transfer heat from decreasing, and prevent the heat dissipation performance from decreasing.

Since they are formed at different positions in the refrigerant moving direction in No. 1, the amount of the condensed liquid accumulated in the refrigerant passage is reduced, and the vapor refrigerant can be condensed efficiently. (Other effects of the first embodiment) (1) In the present embodiment, since the small-diameter opening 41 of the small-diameter portion is provided in the inlet communication portion, the infiltration of the liquid-phase refrigerant into the refrigerant passage 42 is achieved. Can be suppressed. As a result, the refrigerant passage 42
It is possible to transfer heat by condensing heat transfer inside, so that it is possible to prevent deterioration of heat dissipation performance. Further, by providing the small-diameter openings, it is possible to prevent uneven distribution of the refrigerant flowing into the communication passages 42, and also to distribute the refrigerant evenly to the communication passages 42.

It becomes easier to flow. As a result, the amount of the condensed liquid accumulated on the bottom surface of the refrigerant passage 42 is reduced, and the vapor refrigerant can be condensed efficiently. As a result, the required amount of refrigerant can be reduced and the cost can be reduced.

Therefore, the closing member can be formed in a simple shape (for example, a simple flat plate), which facilitates the production of the closing member. (12) In the refrigerant tank 3, a refrigerant chamber can be provided for each heating element, corresponding to the case where a plurality of heating elements are attached. In this case, since the refrigerant is circulated evenly in the entire refrigerant tank by communicating the refrigerant chambers, it is possible to prevent the heat dissipation performance from being deteriorated due to the uneven distribution of the condensed refrigerant.

(14) The vapor passage and the condensate passage may be configured by the refrigerant flow control plate arranged in the refrigerant chamber. In this case, in addition to the effect of preventing flooding, it is expected that the refrigerant flow control plate is arranged in contact with the inner wall surface of the refrigerant chamber to improve the rigidity of the refrigerant chamber and the heat dissipation performance by increasing the heat dissipation area of the refrigerant chamber. it can.
