Oil cooling method for data center

Abstract

The invention discloses an oil cooling method for a data center. The method comprises the following steps of: impregnating a server in mineral oil by utilizing the characteristics of insulation, high heat conduction efficiency and the like of the mineral oil, absorbing and transferring heat dissipated when the server works by using the mineral oil, and continuously and efficiently dissipating the heat by using an oil cooling heat radiation system. According to the oil cooling method, the construction cost of a data center heat radiation system is lowered; compared with an air cooling technology in the prior art, the oil cooling method is more economical and energy-saving; due to the adoption of the heat radiation system, a requirement on the temperature environment of a machine room is substantially zero; the server in the system is directly impregnated in the mineral oil, and equipment such as the server does not directly contact with air, so that requirements on the air quality of the environment are avoided; and the oil cooling efficiency is high, so that the density of the data center can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil cooling, in particular to an oil cooling method for a data center. Background technique [0002] At present, the heat dissipation method of the data center is to use air cooling technology, which means that the central air conditioner lowers the room temperature of the data center, the air supply channel of the cabinet circulates the hot air in the cabinet and the cold air outside the cabinet, and the work of the cooling fan inside the server to dissipate the internal components of the server. The heat that comes out is taken away by the circulation of the air, so as to achieve the purpose of heat dissipation. [0003] Using the current data center heat dissipation method consumes a lot of power. This is because first of all, this method requires the indoor temperature of the data center to be kept at about 18-21 degrees Celsius. Maintaining this low temperature will consume a lot of power for the cen...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Using the current heat dissipation method for data centers consumes a lot of power. This is because first of all, this method requires the indoor temperature of the data center to be kept at about 18-21 degrees Celsius. Maintaining this low temperature will cause the central air conditioner to consume a lot of power.

Secondly, the heat dissipation method of the data center in the current stage is to use air-cooling technology, because the heat conduction efficiency of air is very low, so the air-cooling system needs to consume a lot of power to blow away the heat continuously, so as to ensure the normal operation of servers and other equipment

[0004] Since the current heat dissipation method requires fast air circulation, unclean air will lead to serious dust accumulation in ventilation pipes and heat dissipation systems, so the requirements for air quality and dust conditions are very high

[0005] The air-cooled heat dissipation method requires the continuous and stable work of the heat dissipation system. When the system fails, the internal temperature of the server will increase sharply, which will affect the service life of the server accessories or directly fail, affecting the normal operation of the server. Therefore, the air-cooled heat dissipation method is used. The fault tolerance rate is also low
