背景技术
随着计算设备朝着大功率、高集成度、超大规模化方向发展,高性能芯片和集成电路的使用越来越广泛,这些高热流元件工作时产生的热量是计算设备热负荷的最主要来源。以数据中心服务器为例,常规的空气冷却系统已经无法满足散热需求,为了保证数据中心服务器的稳定性和可靠性,液体冷却技术的研发设计已经成为数据中心系统设计的重点环节,尤其是浸没式液体冷却技术,以其优异的散热能力备受行业关注。
根据液冷工质是否发生相变,浸没式液体冷却可以分为单相浸没式液体冷却和相变浸没式液体冷却。其中,相变浸没式液体冷却利用冷却液沸腾气化带走设备产生的热量,通常采用密闭设计,在其中充入一定量的相变工质,并预留部分空间用于工质汽化,该部分空间存有常压空气,以保证密闭腔内外压力平衡。服务器工作后,设备产生的热量使冷却系统内的工质变为汽态与空气混合。
然而,空气的存在直接影响汽态工质与冷凝部件的换热能力。现有技术中一种典型的处理方案采用了空气/工质蒸汽分离的装置,具体通过压缩机将冷却系统内部空间汇集的空气和制冷剂蒸汽的混合气体抽送至气汽分离器进行分离,再将空气排出。该处理方案配备有两套冷凝系统,方案较为复杂,且压缩机运行耗能相对较高。

具体实施方式
本申请实施例提供了一种基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置,集成了空气管理与压力控制功能,且无需额外动力驱动要求。
众所周知,相变浸没式液体冷却技术是指,将发热设备完全浸没在非导电冷却液体(相变工质)中,利用非导电液体沸腾气化带走设备工作时产生的热量。主要优势包括:1)低噪无污染、无泄露风险;2)节能降耗,降低系统的运营成本;3)减小了冷却系统所占的空间,可整体提高计算设备紧凑性和集成度;4)降低设备的故障率。
同时,为了保持冷却系统的密闭腔内外的压力平衡,除充入一定量的相变工质外,密闭腔内需要预留部分空间用于工质汽化;进一步地,为避免空气的存在影响汽态工质与冷凝部件之间的换热能力。一种典型的处理方式是,通过压缩机将空间内汇集的空气和制冷剂蒸汽的混合气体抽送至空气/工质蒸汽的分离装置,再将分离的空气排出。整体上,该处理方案配备有两套冷凝系统,方案较为复杂;同时,压缩机相对耗能较高,系统PUE(Power Usage Efficiency,电源利用率)无法得以合理控制。
基于此,本申请实施例提供了一种基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置,包括调节部件和储液部件,且两者的内腔可连通。其中,调节部件的本体可在其内腔侧压力的作用下形变,以使其内腔的容纳空间随着压力的变化增大或者缩小。这里的“形变”,包括该调节部件本体可沿单一维度上形变的情形,还包括多维度形变的情形。其储液部件可容纳两相制冷工质,且其中内置有冷凝部件,实际应用时,该储液部件可适配于相变浸没式计算设备的机箱,具体可分别连通设备机箱的通汽口和通液口,建立汽路连通和液路连通关系。
工作过程中,设备机箱内的器件发热,且热量交换至设备机箱内的液态工质,超过该两相制冷工质的沸点时则汽化,通过该汽路连通关系,首先将设备机箱内液面上方的空气排至储液部件内;同时内部压力将随着汽化量的增加而增大,基于调节部件可受压形变的特点,系统内的空气得以被输送至调节部件。同时,持续汽化的汽态工质也进入储液部件中,并在冷凝部件的作下液化,依据预设的发热器件浸没原则,液 态工质经由储液部件回流注入设备机箱。在该工作循环过程中,空气被排到调节部件中,对汽化工质与冷凝部件间的换热并未构成实质干扰,由此,能够有效降低预留空气对汽态工质与冷凝部件间换热能力的影响,该良好性能的获得没有任何耗能部件的参与。
当实际冷凝速度低于汽体产生速度时,调节部件可进一步形变扩容,能够规避内部压力增大产生的不利影响,例如但不限于,压力过高使得液冷工质的沸点升高,可能会导致芯片超温造成损害;影响部分压力敏感元件的正常工作,以及其他安全隐患。这样,本申请实施例提供的管理控制装置可作为该相变浸没式液冷系统的工作节点装置,提供基础冷凝液化功能,并集成了空气管理与压力控制功能;与此同时,基于调节部件容纳空间的可调节能力,空气管理与压力控制功能的实现无需额外动力驱动,系统功耗得以合理控制。
另外,本申请实施例提供的管理控制装置独立于设备机箱设置,当需要检修或更换设备内部器件时,解耦设备机箱与管理控制装置之间的汽路和液路连接关系,即可打开设备机箱进行日常维护,可操作性较好。
此外,基于调节部件容纳空间的可调节能力,本申请实施例提供的管理控制装置可同时适配多个设备机箱,兼顾不同设备机箱内的预留空气量,提供储液冗余量和气体容纳空间的冗余量,降低系统配置成本和运行成本。
为了更好地理解本申请的技术方案和技术效果,不失一般性,以下将结合附图并以服务器作为散热处理对象,对具体的实施例进行详细的描述。
本申请实施例中,该基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置可以包括调节部件10和储液部件20,请参见图1和图2,其中,图1示出了本申请实施例提供的管理控制装置结构示意图,图2为图1中所示基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的组装关系示意图。其中,调节部件10的下沿可安装在储液部件20的上沿上,调节部件10的底部开口与储液部件20的顶部开口密封固定,且两者的内腔连通。
对于调节部件10和储液部件20的组装固定,本实施方案通过螺纹紧固件实现,组装操作方便,且易于检修维护。在其他具体实现中,两者之间还可以采用机械卡合结构等实现方式。需要说明的是,在满足基本组装固定功能的基础上,两者接合的部位还应当具有良好的密封性能,以避免制冷工质逸出装置内腔。
其中,调节部件10的本体为层叠收展结构,可在内部压力的作用下形变并改变其内腔容纳空间的体积大小。请一并参见图3,该图示出了该调节部件的一种展开状态示意图。内部压力增大,该层叠收展结构本体可展开,调节部件的高度如尺寸L2所示,容纳空间相应增大;内部压力减小,该收展结构的本体可在内部压力降低时自动叠收,调节部件的高度如图1中尺寸L1所示,容纳空间相应减小。换言之,该调节部件10内腔的容纳空间,能够随着内部压力的变化增大或者缩小。
这里,基于调节部件10本体可在内部压力作用下形变,改变其内腔容纳空间的体积,除可通过其本体结构实现外,在其他具体实现中,也可以通过调节部件本体材料的选择达成上述功能,例如但不限于,采用成型后为柔性本体,且基于材料特性本体 具有弹性,同样能够在内部压力作用下调节或改变内部容纳空间的大小;可以理解的是,具有弹性的材料应当与制冷工质兼容,且能够避免汽态工质泄露逸出。
另外该调节部件还可以采用这样的设计,整体结构为气缸形式(图中未示出)。该气缸内腔可以由活塞分隔形成两个腔室,其中一侧腔室用于与储液部件的内腔连通,并可在压力作用下推动活塞位移,使该侧腔室的内部空间得以扩容。当然,采用气缸形式的调节部件不属于严格意义上的形变扩容,同样能够达成容纳空气及汽态工质的功能。
其中,储液部件20的内腔用于容纳两相制冷工质,其中还内置有冷凝部件30。该储液部件20包括通液口21和通汽口22,本实施方案提供的管理控制装置适配于相变浸没式服务器,请一并参见图4,该图示出了该基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的一种应用状态。
如图4所示,储液部件20的通汽口22与服务器设备机箱45的通汽口42连通,构建形成汽路连通关系;服务器工作过程中,器件发热且热量交换至设备机箱内的液态工质,温度超过该两相制冷工质的沸点时则汽化,服务器节点40的设备机箱45与储液部件20的内腔之间形成压力差,通过该汽路连通关系,将设备机箱45内的空气排至储液部件内;随着工作发热量的持续增加,汽化的汽态工质也通过该汽路连通关系进入储液部件20中,基于调节部件10可受压形变的特点,被首先排出的空气进一步被推动输送至调节部件10内。
与此同时,储液部件20内的汽态工质,在冷凝部件30的冷凝盘管表面遇冷并液化,液态工质积存在储液部件20的底部。本方案中,在管理控制装置内部设置冷凝盘管,相应地,储液部件20上还包括冷却水出口23和冷却水入口24,分别与冷凝盘管两侧管端连通,以建立冷却水循环将系统发热量带走。结合图2所示,冷却水出口23和冷却水入口24位于储液部件20的同一端侧,方便具体操作及管路布置。应当理解,冷凝循环水路的具体实现非本申请的核心发明点所在,且本领域技术人员基于现有技术能够实现,故本文不再赘述。
再如图4和图5所示,储液部件20的通液口21与设备机箱45的第一通液口41连通,构建形成液路连通关系;储液部件20中的液态工质可回流注入设备机箱45,以此建立该两相制冷工质的工作循环。这里,储液部件20中液态工质的注入量,应当满足服务器发热器件44散热能力的浸没原则。在具体实现中,可以根据总体设计预先设定注入量,例如但不限于图中所示的完全浸没发热器件。当然,也可以部分浸没发热器件。
本实施方案中,该基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置还包括注液口25和压力安全阀26。请一并参见图6和图7,其中,图6为图1的F向视图,图7为图1的R向视图。
该注液口25用于与服务器外部的制冷工质供给管路连通,这样,可将液体工质预装于管理控制装置内,管理控制装置作为独立主体提供空气管理、压力控制以及制冷工质的循环补给功能。
通常,基于系统最大承压能力预设一阀值,当内部压力异常超过该阀值时,则压力安全阀26打开泄压,提供安全保护功能。压力安全阀26可以配置在储液部件20的顶部本体上,换言之,只要配置在储液部件20内工质液面上方的本体部位,均能够在系统内部压力过高时开启,将部分汽体释放避免高压风险。
进一步地,为了更好地适应服务器的安装位置,冷却水出口23和冷却水入口24可位于储液部件20的后侧,满足系统内部制冷循环的功能需要。相应地,注液口25和压力安全阀26可位于储液部件20的前侧,当系统需要补注制冷工质时,无需移动该管理控制装置即可执行相应操作,能够合理控制运维成本。
另外,本实施方案中的储液部件20内部可设置补液泵27和排液泵28。请参见图8,该图为图1中所示储液部件20的俯视图,为了清楚示意补液泵27和排液泵28的具体设置,图中未示出冷凝部件。
结合图4和图8所示,补液泵27与注液口25连接,以提供将制冷工质预装或补注进入储液部件20的动力。排液泵28与通液口21连接,以提供将储存在储液部件20底部的液态工质回流注入设备机箱45的动力。相应地,补液泵27和排液泵28分别通过线缆与控制器29相连,以实现供电及相应的控制处理。
下面简要说明本实施方案在图4所示应用场景下的工作原理。
首先,相变浸没液冷服务器工作后,发热器件44工作产生的热量换热至液态制冷工质,并温度升高超过工质沸点时液态汽化,系统内部压力随着汽体量的增加而增大。服务器设备机箱45的上部空腔和管理控制装置的上部空腔通过汽管70连通,随着服务器设备机箱45内部汽体压力的增加,服务器设备机箱45和管理控制装置的上部空腔两个内腔之间将产生压力差,进而使服务器设备机箱45内腔中的空气通过汽管70流入储液部件20的上部腔体,同时汽态工质也进入该管理控制装置。请一并参见图5,该图示出了图4由于空气(初始预留在设备机箱45的上部空腔和管理控制装置的上部空腔内)的进入,调节部件10展开容纳空间增加,以收纳从服务器设备机箱侧进入的空气,不会影响后续进入汽态工质与冷凝盘管之间的换热效率。
同时,调节部件10配置在储液部件20上方,且储液部件20上的通汽口22位于冷凝部件30的冷凝盘管下方。在此基础上,基于空气密度低于汽体工质密度的特性,管理控制装置内的空气可进一步与汽化工质有效分离,并位于顶部区域;进入储液部件20汽化工质在冷凝盘管表面遇冷换热,冷凝盘管内的水循环能够保障其表面温度满足液化工质的要求,液态工质下落并积存在储液部件20的底部,形成液体池,并可通过水管60返回到服务器设备机箱45,进入下一个循环。
服务器工作过程中,当服务器设备机箱45中液态工质的汽化蒸发速度与该管理控制装置中汽体的冷凝速度相当时,整个系统与外界大气压力平衡。
另外,当服务器功率在某时段超负荷运行,汽化速度大于冷凝速度时,则整个系统内部的压力将逐步增大,此时管理控制装置的调节部件10进一步伸展,内部腔体的容纳空间扩容,并可容纳未及时冷凝的汽化工质,以解决短时压力冲击。反之,当服务器负荷降低或停止运行时,服务器设备机箱45内腔压力相应变小,则空气将自动从管理控制装置返回到服务器上部的空腔中,达到系统的压力平衡。
需要说明的是,在该应用场景下,管理控制装置配置在服务器设备机箱45上方,调节部件10配置在储液部件20上方,其中,相变制冷工质循环中的汽化工质上行,且液态工质基于自重可下行,在该循环流动趋势的基础上,结合服务器发热部件实际发热量,通过合理配置调节部件10的扩容能力、冷凝部件30的换热能力,以及储液部件20的预装液态工质容量,则无需配置用于液态工质回流的排液泵28等动力部件。整体上,可进一步减少系统配置成本,并可降低运行噪声。
为了最大限度地降低系统内空气的影响,可以在调节部件10内设置内部填充物90。请一并参见图9和图10,其中,图9为另一种基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的结构示意图,图10为图9所示基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的一种使用状态示意图。
结合图9和图10所示,调节部件10内的内部填充物90,可占据初始状态下的调节部件10内腔空间,在一定程度上减小了预存空气量。这里,内部填充物90可以为实体结构,也可以采用空心结构,其材料选择同样需要与制冷工质兼容。
本实施方案中,该内部填充物90可相对固定在调节部件10的下部位置,调节部件10在内部压力的作用下展开时,内部填充物90不会随动,可规避展开阻力过大的影响,能够及时有效的扩容。在其他具体实现中,根据相应产品类型的总体设计要求,该内部填充物也可固定在调节部件的偏上部位置(图中未示出),并可随着调节部件形变同步展开。
图中所示,内部填充物90的旁侧与调节部件10内壁之间具有间隔,以清楚示意其装配位置关系。理论上来说,内部填充物90与调节部件10之间的间隔优选较小尺寸,只要调节部件10的本体内壁具有足够的承压表面即可。
在其他具体实现中,内部填充物90的底沿还可向下延伸至冷凝盘管的上方(图中未示出),可以理解的是,内部填充物90的实际空间占用,需要合理兼顾汽化工质与冷凝盘管间换热效率。
前述实施方案中,调节部件10均设置在储液部件20的上方。根据不同应用场景,调节部件也可设置在储液部件的旁侧。请一并参见图11和图12,其中,图11为又一种基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的结构示意图,图12为图11所示基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的一种使用状态示意图。
图中所示,调节部件10a设置在储液部件20a的旁侧,两者内腔连通。该调节部件10a同样能够储存从服务器设备机箱侧进入的空气,避免影响汽态工质与冷凝盘管之间的换热效率。其他构成与连接关系与前述实施例一致,在此不再赘述。
前述实施方案中,管理控制装置均采用调节部件对应配置一个储液部件的方式。在其他具体实现中,还可以采用一个具有扩容能力的调节部件对应配置多个储液部件。也就是说,该管理控制装置可以设置有多个储液部件,每个储液部件均与调节部件的内腔连通。基于具体应用场景,可通过合理配置调节部件扩容能力,适配多个储液部件,满足同一应用场景下的不同管理控制需求。
另外,本实施方案提供的管理控制装置可适配于服务器的多个相变浸没式节点。请参见图13,该图示出了该基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的一种应用状态。
如图13所示,储液部件20的通汽口22与服务器各节点设备机箱45a的通汽口42连通,储液部件20的通液口21与各节点设备机箱45a的第一通液口41连通,分别构建形成汽路连通和液路连通关系。各节点设备机箱45a内的元器件可以相同,也可以不同,例如但不限于图中所示的处理器。
每个节点设备机箱45a内的器件发热且热量,交换至液态工质,超过工质沸点后汽化。同理,基于实际负荷功率,各节点设备机箱45a与储液部件20内腔之间形成压力差相同或不同,对于每个节点设备机箱45a来说,可经由总汽管70a推动设备机箱内的空气,排至储液部件20内;随着工作发热量的持续增加,汽化的汽态工质也将进入储液部件20中。
工作过程中,汽态工质在冷凝部件30的冷凝盘管表面遇冷并液化,与图4所示应用场景下的作用机理相同,这里不再赘述。同样地,积存在储液部件20中的液态工质,可回流注入各节点设备机箱45a,以此建立多个子工作循环。具体来说,可在总水管60a上设置动力部件,例如排液泵28a,以便装配运行前或者运行过程中将液态工质泵送至各节点设备机箱45a中,满足制冷工作循环的工质流量要求。同时,也可在总水管60a上设置过滤器80,防止杂质进入节点。可以理解的是,该排液泵28a和过滤器80等部件的功能实现方式,非本申请的核心发明点所在,故本文不再赘述。
在其他具体实现中,用于泵送液态工质的排液泵也可设置在各节点设备机箱45a的分水管上(图中未示出),具体可根据各自的实际用液量进行泵送。此外,也可如前述图8所示实施例,将该排液泵配置在储液部件内部,对于这种配置方式,过滤器可设置在供液路径上任意位置,例如但不限于设置在总水管上。
本实施方案中,基于该管理控制装置提供的工质循环冷凝功能及制冷工质供给功能,能够持续将各节点内部运行产生的热量带出服务器。同时,基于该管理控制装置可扩容内部空间的调节能力,在具体应用中,根据每个服务器节点的负载情况,控制相应子循环回路的冷却液配给,并可同步适应不同节点设备机箱45a的气体(空气及汽化工质)的送入量,并可在多个服务器节点之间进行平衡。
由此,该管理控制装置可预设一相对较小的系统冗余度,即可满足多个服务器节点的散热功能需要,系统建设成本得以进一步降低。例如,在第一工作时段内,第一计算节点的器件发热形成的工质汽化量大于第二计算节点的器件发热形成的工质汽化量时,管理控制系统分配更多的制冷工质给第一计算节点,相应地,将更多地供液补充至第一计算节点;反之,在第二工作时段内,第一计算节点的器件发热形成的工质汽化量小于第二计算节点的器件发热形成的工质汽化量时,则分配更多的制冷工质给第二计算节点,更多地供液补充至第二计算节点。这样,整体上能够合理提供储液冗余量和制冷能力的冗余量,自适应灵活满足器件散热需求,提高各计算节点内器件的工作性能,并可降低系统配置成本和运行成本。
基于补液泵27还可将设备机箱内的液态工质抽回至储液部件,当需要进行节点检修维护时,启动动力部件,可将设备机箱内的制冷工质抽回到储液部件内储存,再将其与系统解耦。请一并参见图14和图15,其中,图14为本发明实施例提供的基于相 变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的另一种应用状态示意图,图15为图14中所示计算节点进行维护操作的示意图。
如图14和图15所示,在基于排液泵28建立的液路连通关系的基础上,本实施方案增加了另一液路连通关系。也就是说,这里的液路连通关系包括第一液路连通关系和第二液路连通关系,其中,动力部件包括补液泵27和排液泵28,第一液路连通关系基于排液泵28建立,补液泵27用于通过第二液路连通关系将液态工质自相应服务器节点40的设备机箱45抽回至储液部件20内,也即采用动力部件快速将液态工质抽回。
图中所示,该设备机箱45包括第一通液口41和第二通液口43。其中,第二通液口43用于通过回液管50与储液部件20的注液口25连通,以根据运维需要将相应设备机箱45内的制冷工质抽回储液部件20;第一通液口41用于与水管60连接,进而通过水管60与储液部件20的通液口21连通,以实现设备机箱的制冷工质预装及补液回流。
在其他具体实现中,用于供、回液的通液口21和注液口25,可以采用一个通液口实现;相应地,设备机箱45的第一通液口41和第二通液口43,也采用一个通液口实现。当然,在液口功能集成的配置方式下,向设备机箱45内注入液态工质以及将液态工质抽回的相应操作,需要分别执行。在具体实现中,可采用一个动力部件提供回液动力和供液动力,并通过一个液路连通关系完成相应的工质输送(图中未示出)。换言之,由一个动力部件实现补液泵27和排液泵28的功能,例如但不限于可进行正、反转动作的泵,正转时可将液态工质抽回至储液部件,反转时可将液态工质泵送至各节点机箱。
本实施方案中,服务器节点40包括空气平衡阀410,控制外界空气与服务器内部的连通,具体地,该空气平衡阀410配置在设备机箱45的侧壁上部位置,属于一种常态关闭的单向阀,当执行将设备机箱45内的制冷工质抽回储液部件20时,机箱内部压力的减小后,空气平衡阀410基于内外压差的变化打开,且打开时外部空气得以进入设备机箱45,实现内部压力补偿,可快速顺畅地抽取内部工质;这里,内部汽态工质不会经由打开的空气平衡阀410排出,且阀关闭后双向均不通,以在节点维护时保持相应服务器节点的内外压力平衡。
为了提高回液管50与设备机箱45之间的拆装效率,两者上可分别设置相适配的快插回液接头。其中,第一回液接头51设置在回液管50外伸管端,也即回液管50的与第二通液口43的连接端,第二回液接头46设置在设备机箱45的第二通液口43处。检修维护时,可快速插装并连通以将相应设备机箱45内的制冷工质抽回,完成抽回操作后,同样可快速解除两者之间的连接。
具体地,第一回液接头51和第二回液接头46可采用具有断开自动关闭功能的快接接头。可以理解的是,该断开自动关闭功能的具体结构实现非本申请的核心发明点所在,故本文不再赘述。当然,在第一通液口41和通汽口42分别与相应管路连接处,也可采用具有断开自动关闭功能的快接接头,可控制拆装操作产生的工质损失,且便于现场操作管理。
另外,图中所示的补液泵27和排液泵28均设置在储液部件20中,不占用其外部空间,具有更高的整体集成度。可以理解的是,还可以将泵安装在非图示的其他位置,同样能够满足沿相应工质输送方向提供输出动力的功能需要。
此外,本实施方案中,服务器节点40配置有电磁阀47和第一液位传感器48。图中所示,该电磁阀47设置在设备机箱45的第一通液口41处,可根据控制指令打开或关闭该节点的供液通道。在其他具体应用,该电磁阀还可设置在建立相应节点第二液路连通关系的供液路径上的其他位置处,以根据第一液位传感器的检测结果,接通或断开相应的供液路径。该第一液位传感器48可实时检测设备机箱45内液态工质的液位,并将液位信号输出至BMC(Baseboard Management Controller,主板管理控制器)49,由BMC 49根据当前液位输出控制指令至电磁阀47。
具体来说,在系统工作循环中,设备机箱45内的当前液位处于下限阈值时,BMC输出打开控制指令至电磁阀47,电磁阀47打开,这样,储液部件20制冷工质可通过水管60实现补液回流;当前液位处于上限阈值时,BMC输出关闭控制指令至电磁阀47,电磁阀47关闭,结束回流。当然,在向设备机箱45内预装制冷工质时,同样可在液位到达上限阈值时关闭该电磁阀47。
在其他具体实现中,将液态工质自储液部件20泵送至节点设备机箱的泵送量,具体可根据相应设备机箱内的液态工质液位进行控制,并由管理控制装置的控制单元根据第一液位传感器48采集的液位信号,控制电磁阀47启闭,以充分利用储液部件的容液量合理分配至各节点的设备机箱,进一步利用管理控制装置的冗余能力降低系统运行成本。
当然,在另外的具体实现中,对于管理控制多个服务器节点的情形,也可在储液部件20内分别独立配置排液泵(图中未示出),这样,管理控制装置可根据第一液位传感器48采集的液位信号,控制服务器节点相应的排液泵。
同样地,储液部件20中也可以设置第二液位传感器213,该第二液位传感器213用于检测储液部件20内液态工质的液位,以确保储液量满足服务器节点40的用液量。在系统准备过程,第一回液接头51可与外部的工质罐(图中未示出)等工质源连接,启动补液泵27将液态工质从工质罐中抽取至储液部件20中,第二液位传感器213可检测储液部件20内液态工质的液位,并可将液位信号输出至控制模块210,当前液位处于到达上限阈值时,控制模块210输出关停控制指令至补液泵27。
在其他具体实现中,本实施方案中各服务器节点40的BMC 49和控制模块210的管理控制功能,也可通过配置在系统设备外部的芯片实现。相较来说,将BMC芯片和控制模块210分别集成配置在系统内,易于检修维护。
为了进一步提高可操作性,本实施方式在储液部件20的外侧设置有补液泵开关211,用于操作人员手动控制补液泵27的启停。在系统准备过程中,操作人员可根据工质罐侧的准备情况,手动启动补液泵27,将液态工质从工质罐中抽取至储液部件20中;同时,在进行节点维护需要与系统解耦时,操作人员也可根据现场实际情况,手动启动补液泵27,将液态工质从设备机箱45中抽取至储液部件20中。
另外,在上述操作过程中,该补液泵27还可作为急停操作开关,以根据现场实际情况关停补液泵27。
此外,本实施方案提供的管理控制装置也可适配于服务器的多个相变浸没式节点。请参见图16。图中所示,储液部件20的通汽口22与服务器各节点设备机箱45a的通汽口42连通,储液部件20的通液口21与各节点设备机箱45a的第一通液口41连通,分别构建形成汽路连通和液路连通关系。
每个节点设备机箱45a内的器件发热且热量,交换至液态工质,超过工质沸点后汽化。同理,基于实际负荷功率,各节点设备机箱45a与储液部件20内腔之间形成压力差相同或不同,对于每个节点设备机箱45a来说,可经由总汽管70a推动设备机箱内的空气,排至储液部件20内;积存在储液部件20中的液态工质,可通过总水管60a回流注入各节点设备机箱45a。
下面结合图14、图15和图16简要说明本实施方案的工作过程。
(一)系统准备过程。
首先,将相变液冷服务器(各服务器节点40)通过水管60(60a)、汽管70(70a)与储液部件20连接(此时储液部件20内无液态工质)。然后,将第一回液接头51与外部的工质罐(图中未示出)连接,打开补液泵开关211,启动补液泵27将液态的两相制冷工质从工质罐中输送到储液部件20中;同时排液泵28也可启动,储液部件20中的液态工质被注入水管60(60a)。然后,相变液冷服务器上电,相应服务器节点40的BMC根据第一液位传感器48检测其中液态工质的液位高度(此时各设备机箱45内无液态工质),判断液位低于下限阈值,则输出控制指令打开电磁阀47,液态工质流入相应的服务器节点40内,当液态工质的液位达到上限阈值时,则输出控制指令关闭电磁阀47,服务器充液完成。
接下来,待所有的服务器节点40充液完成后,储液部件20内的液位将持续上升,以补充系统运行过程中的工质损失。持续过程中,控制模块210判断第二液位传感器213检测的液位高度达到上限阈值后,输出控制指令关闭补液泵27。
(二)系统正常工作过程。
相变浸没液冷服务器开始工作,各服务器节点40中的器件发热量交换至液态工质,温度升高超过工质沸点时汽化,服务器节点内部的压力随着汽化量的增加而增大,并推动汽态工质汽进入储液部件20。进入储液部件20的高温的汽态工质在冷凝盘管遇冷并重新凝结成液体,落至储液部件20下部。
通过储液部件20下部的排液泵28,可将液态工质经由水管60(60a)回流至服务器节点40中,以进入下一个工作循环。在具体实现中,服务器节点40中随着液态工质的蒸发汽化,液态工质量逐渐减少,当第一液位传感器48检测到当前液位低至下限阈值时,根据该液位信号,BMC会将输出打开控制信号至相应的电磁阀47的控制端,进行回流补液,直到液位达到上限阈值。
同样地,本实施方案中调节部件10的本体,可在内部压力的作用下形变并改变其内腔的容纳空间的体积大小。在此不再赘述。
(三)服务器节点维护过程。
首先,将待维护的服务器节点40下电,并将设备机箱45的一部分自机柜拖出,并与汽管70(70a)、水管60(60a)同时断开,这里,在第一通液口41和通汽口42处所配置的接头,与相应管路断开后可自动关闭。
然后,将第一回液接头51与该服务器节点的设备机箱45上第二回液接头46连接,此时,打开管理控制装置的补液泵开关211,可将相应服务器节点40内的液态工质抽回至储液部件20中。工质抽取完成后关闭补液泵27,并拔下第一回液接头51,且断开后接头自动关闭。服务器节点40可与系统完全解耦进行具体维护,维护完成后将其重新装回系统中。至此,重复系统准备过程和系统正常工作过程。
前述实施方案提供的管理控制装置,均配置有调节部件10。需要说明的是,基于图14、图15和图16所描述的管理控制装置,对于设备内空气量较小或设备运行汽化量不高的应用场景下,也可不配置调节部件。请参见图17,该图为本发明实施例提供的另一种基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的又一种应用状态示意图。为了清楚示意本实施方案与图16所示服务器系统的区别和联系,相同功能构成在图中以相同标记进行示明。
这里,图17所示管理控制装置的其他构成及结构的具体实现方式,与图14、图15和图16所描述的实施方案相同,在此不再赘述。
另外,前述实施方案中,服务器上电后,排液泵28处于常态启动运行状态下,以在制冷工质换热循环过程中,根据不同服务器节点的实际运行参数控制供液速度和流量,排液泵28的输出相当于动态闭环调整过程。根据不同应用场景,对于排液泵28的调节控制可进一步优化,具体可在其输出路径上设置溢流阀。请一并参见图18,该图为另一种基于相变浸没液冷系统的管理控制装置的另一种应用状态示意图。
如图18所示,在储液部件20内设置有溢流阀212,该溢流阀212设置在排液泵28的输出路径上。服务器上电后,排液泵28保持启动状态,当下游侧服务器节点40的电磁阀47均未打开或部分未打开,或者其他情形导致供液路径压力过高时,该溢流阀212的溢流口则被顶开,部分液态工质自溢流口排回储液部件20中,可避免水管所在路径压力过高,能够起到安全保护作用。其他构成与连接关系与前述实施例一致,在此不再赘述。
本申请实施例还提供了一种计算设备,该计算设备包括基于相变浸没液冷系统进行器件散热的设备机箱,还包括如前述图1至图18中所描述的管理控制装置。
该计算设备可以为计算机、服务器等产品类型,特别适用于大功率、高集成度、超大规模化的数据中心服务器。基于相变浸没液冷系统的运行机制,可满足相应制冷循环下的内部空间扩容能力,同时提供的工质循环冷凝功能及制冷工质供给功能,为相变浸没式液冷可靠应用于相应器件的散热处理提供了技术保障。
应当理解,相应计算设备的其他功能构成非本申请的核心发明点所在,故本文不再赘述。
以上仅是本发明的优选实施方式,应当指出,对于本技术领域的普通技术人员来说,在不脱离本发明原理的前提下,还可以做出若干改进和润饰,这些改进和润饰也应视为本发明的保护范围。
