Description
Technical field
The automatic floor pressure charging system that the utility model relates to temperature control unit and has it, wherein, the cooling air of below, floor is initiatively supplied to data center.
Background technology
The IT manager is faced with the rapid growth of computer speed and processing power at present, and this causes more heats of higher power supply requirement and computing equipment to generate.This may be to the bigger challenge of effective cooling data center's generation.
Simultaneously, the IT manager faces and obtains low cost and take the pressure of environmental protection IT scheme with the carbon footprint of reduction company.This may further face the difficulty of the effective scheme that obtains cooling data center.
Along with data center increases more computing equipment, the high density heating computer equipment that upgrades often be installed in exponentially from traditional cooling construction (such as, computer Room Air Conditioner (CRAC), computer room air conditioner (CRAH) etc.) in the farther useful space.This has hindered effective ability of cooling off data center of cooling construction, and this causes data center to produce focus.
In addition, verified, higher temperature can reduce the life-span of computer equipment, and may cause miserable equipment fault.Data center room is generally used CRAC and CRAH cooling unit, and it offers data center with cooling air.Cooling air directs into computing equipment passively again via the skylight in the floor tile.The pressure of CRAC unit is only depended in the ordinary construction in floor tile skylight, passively cooling air is directed into computing equipment and often operating efficiency is bad.For example, with reference to United States Patent (USP) NO.7,266,964, it openly is used for the method and system of the air circulation in the room, control data center.Data center room 10 comprises perforation floor 21, air inlet zone 18, air cooling unit 16, cooling air channels 22, shelf 12 and convertor assembly 30.Be inhaled into air inlet zone 18 and by air cooling unit 16 coolings from the air of data center room 10.Cooling air 24 leaves air cooling unit 16 and is guided along the direction of cooling air channels 22.Cooling air 24 leaves cooling air passageway 22 by the perforation floor 21 in cold passageway and the shelf 12 then.Shelf 12 is used for physics erecting device 14A-14C.Device 14A-14C can comprise computer system (for example, server), power supply etc.
One denier air leaves perforation floor 21, and reflector 30 prevents that cooling air 24 from flowing back into air inlet zone 18 in the cooling passageway, situation lower edge of not cooling off all device 14A-14C.Reflector 30 is installed to the openend that cools off passageway 23 by erecting device 32, flow back into air inlet zone 18 to reduce cooling air before cooling device 14A-14C.Because reflection, air is easier to flow to and passes shelf 12, but not cooling passageway 20.In case air rises to the height of reflector 30 or shelf 12 tops, air turns back to air inlet zone 18 along the route shown in the arrow 36.
Use reflector 30 to cause being installed the cooling air volume increase that 14A-14C sucks.In addition, air reflection makes the minimizing of recirculation (hot-air enters cooling duct 23 by cooling duct 23 recirculation) of the hot-air between the device 14A-14C.
In above-mentioned cooling structure, air stratification causes cooling air to remain on reduced levels and the hot-air rising.Direct into the supply fan of computing equipment in insufficient supply, especially under the situation of the cooling air at equipment shelf top, the hot-air that the computer equipment scavenger fan is produced can be recycled to the equipment supply fan, and this causes apparatus overheat.
Even under the situation of traditional cooling construction with its whole ability work, also can not fully cool off focus effectively and also may cause cold excessively near the computer equipment of cooling construction.The CRAC unit often with whole abilities or near whole capability operation, perhaps in some cases, adds extra CRAC unit to data center, and to satisfy some focus, this need use and surpass necessary energy, increases cost and carbon footprint.

Embodiment
Though the utility model is described multi-form embodiment, should be appreciated that shown in the accompanying drawing and here the specific embodiment of describing in detail only should be considered as the example of the utility model principle, should not be used for limiting scope of the present utility model.
Fig. 2 is the schematic diagram according to the automatic floor pressure charging system in the data center room of the present utility model.In data center room shown in Figure 2, the automatic floor pressure charging system 1 that has a plurality of data centers (such as server and computing equipment) and be used to cool off data center usually, data center is arranged to several row, is the cooling duct therebetween.In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 2, it illustrates two line data centers, has a cooling duct therebetween.Automatically floor pressure charging system 1 comprises the cooling air channels 14 below temperature control unit (TCU) 10, computer Room Air Conditioner (CRAC) 12, the cooling duct and the movable floor 16 (optionally) of cooling air channels 14 ends.When carrying out cooling processing, outside cooling air by CRAC12 suck, cooling and be supplied to cooling air channels 14 then, this and common practise of the prior art are basic identical, are not described in detail in this.
In an embodiment of the present utility model, cooling air is fed to data center on one's own initiative by TCU10, and TCU10 basically forms automatic floor of the present utility model supercharging equipment.Shown in Fig. 3-9, the top cover 106 that TCU10 comprises housing 100, be attached to side cover 110, the foot level grill 108 of housing 100 and foot level grill 108 be coupled to housing 100 from the top from the side in addition, TCU10 comprises that also two fans 102 being contained in the housing 100 and corresponding 104 two fans of two loudspeaker 102 use corresponding fastener 120 to be coupled to the side that 108 1 controllers 112 of foot level grill and transformer 114 can be installed to housing 100.In addition, top cover 106 has two handles 140 in its both sides
During installation, controller 112 and transformer 114 at first are installed to housing 100 then, and fan 104 and loudspeaker 104 and foot level grill 104 are packed in the housing 100, and fan 102 and loudspeaker 104 are contained in the inner space of housing 100.Side cover 110 is attached to housing 100.At last, top cover 106 be installed to housing 100 or, the number of assembling steps of side cover 110 and top cover 106 can be changed.After the assembling, the top surface of TCU10 flushes substantially.Then, whole TCU10 can use handle 140 floor of easily packing into.
When carrying out cooling processing, power supply is fed to controller 112 and fan 102 when the energising by transformer 114, the rotating speed of controller 112 control fans 102, and control is fed to the flow rate of the air of data center thus.In addition, preferably, temperature sensor 20 can be arranged in the cooling air channels 14, its can the measurement target cool position temperature and temperature signal offered controller 112 based on the temperature signal that receives, controller 112 can be regulated fan speed automatically, so that required cooling air volume only to be provided.
In an embodiment of the present utility model, the full-automatic dynamically control of TCU can " as required " cooling in data center, prevents the stratification of air and gets around, thereby cool off computing equipment effectively, and this can prolong the life-span of equipment and prevent equipment failure.
TCU can be separately according to and control, perhaps a plurality of TCU can be installed in the data center and centralized control.Under the situation that TCU places along data center, the air-flow of whole data center can be managed dynamically by full-automatic central control unit.This result evenly cools off data center, reduces focus and cold excessively, and reduces the whole output requirement of CRAC unit or for the demand of extra CRAC unit.TCU uses the maximization input in the existing cooling construction and replenishes the CRAC unit intelligently.
Under the situation that the available heat management of whole data center is controlled, more equipment can add data center to, the maximization space utilization.
The flexibility of the hot plug design of TCU allows easily to relocate the unit, is infeasible for very crucial calculating structure generally speaking and relocate.TCU can easily install, move or add additional unit to support development.
