Description

Technical Field

[0002] Communication equipment in the communication room consumes a lot of electricity, and the heat generated needs to be removed by the room air conditioner. With the development of communication networks, high-power communication equipment such as routers are increasingly widely used in the room. The application of high-power communication equipment has the following problems:

[0003] First, currently communication rooms generally use room-level air conditioning for cooling. Communication equipment releases heat disorderly into the room environment. The room air conditioner cools the room environment by outputting a large amount of cold air, neutralizes the heat, and then transfers the heat to the outside for release. At this time, the air conditioner has a short circuit of cold air flow and low cooling efficiency.

[0004] Second, with the increasing commercial use of high-power communication equipment, many high-power communication equipment such as OTN9600, OTN9700, NE5000e and T8000 have a power of 15kW-30kW. In order to cool such communication equipment, existing computer rooms usually need to add multiple air conditioners, or only place one set of communication equipment in a larger space to meet the equipment's heat exchange requirements, making it difficult to meet users' diverse usage needs.

[0005] Third, when the existing communication equipment is some large-capacity optical transport network (OTN) communication equipment and adopts a back-to-back double-sided cabinet structure, the existing air conditioners have great unreasonable conditions in terms of heat backup for the communication equipment, are difficult to cope with high-power communication equipment, and have relatively low energy efficiency.

[0072] Embodiment 1

[0073] This embodiment provides a communication heat exchange system, such as Figure 1As shown, the communication heat exchange system includes communication equipment, a heat exchange component 400, a hot air channel and a cold air channel. Two heat exchange components 400 are respectively arranged on both sides of the communication equipment, wherein the communication equipment specifically refers to a router, an optical transmission network, etc. The hot air channel is configured to absorb the heat generated by the communication equipment for the recovery of the hot air flow. The cold air channel is separated from the hot air channel and is not connected to each other. The cold air channel is configured to deliver cold air to the communication equipment for the supply of cold air flow. Among them, the hot air channel and the cold air channel corresponding to the communication equipment are arranged in the same heat exchange component 400, so that the communication equipment recovers hot air flow on both sides and supplies cold air flow on both sides; and / or, the hot air channel and the cold air channel corresponding to the communication equipment are respectively arranged in two heat exchange components 400, so that one side of the communication equipment supplies cold air flow and the other side recovers hot air flow.

[0074] In the communication heat exchange system provided in this embodiment, the hot air channel can absorb the heat generated by the communication equipment to realize the process of hot air flow recovery, and the cold air channel can deliver cold air to the communication equipment to realize the process of cold air flow delivery. The cold air channel and the hot air channel are separated and not connected to each other, and the cold air flow and the hot air flow are completely separated, so as to avoid the mixing of cold and hot air flows and the short circuit of cold air flow, thereby ensuring the heat exchange efficiency and having a good energy-saving effect. The hot air channel and the cold air channel corresponding to the communication equipment are arranged in the same heat exchange component 400. For each side of the communication equipment, cold air can be delivered and heat can be recovered to the communication equipment. The two heat exchange components 400 are respectively arranged on both sides of the communication equipment, and the communication equipment recovers hot air flow and delivers cold air flow on both sides, that is, "double-sided cold air inlet and double-sided hot air outlet". The hot air channel and the cold air channel corresponding to the communication equipment are respectively arranged in the two heat exchange components 400, and the two heat exchange components 400 are respectively arranged on both sides of the communication equipment, so that one side of the communication equipment delivers cold air flow and the other side recovers hot air flow, that is, "single-sided cold air inlet and single-sided hot air outlet". According to the structural characteristics of communication equipment, the hot air channel and the cold air channel are adapted to various communication equipment structure types and can effectively solve the heat dissipation problem of communication equipment.

[0075] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the communication device includes a first communication device 100, which is specifically an optical transport network. The optical transport network is specifically a large-capacity optical transport network, which can also be called OTN. The first communication device 100 is specifically a high-power communication device, and its power is specifically 15kW to 30kW.

[0076] The heat exchange component 400 corresponding to the first communication device 100 includes a frame 401, the frame 401 includes a frame body 4011 and a frame door 4012, the frame door 4012 is arranged on the frame 401, and the frame 401 plays the role of overall support. The frame 401 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the width of the frame 401 is defined as the first direction, the length is defined as the second direction, and the height is defined as the third direction, wherein the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are mutually perpendicular. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction only represent spatial directions and have no substantial meaning.

[0077] It should be noted that if Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the hot air channel includes a first hot air channel 11, and the cold air channel includes a first cold air channel 12. The first hot air channel 11 and the first cold air channel 12 correspond to the first communication device 100. The first hot air channel 11 is used to absorb the heat generated by the first communication device 100, and the first cold air channel 12 is used to deliver cold air to the first communication device 100.

[0078] In one embodiment, the first hot air channel 11 includes a hot air recovery port 111 and a hot air recovery pipe 112 . One end of the hot air recovery port 111 is arranged opposite to the first communication device 100 , and the other end is connected to the hot air recovery pipe 112 .

[0079] One end of the hot air recovery port 111 is arranged opposite to the first communication device 100, and the hot air recovery port 111 is connected to the first communication device 100, and can only absorb the heat generated by the first communication device 100. The other end of the hot air recovery port 111 is connected to the hot air recovery pipe 112, and the hot air recovery pipe 112 plays a role in heat transport and heat extraction.

[0080] It should be noted that the hot air recovery port 111 is specifically a trumpet-shaped structure, and the large end of the hot air recovery port 111 is arranged toward the first communication device 100 to increase the contact area between the hot air recovery port 111 and the first communication device 100 and improve the heat recovery effect.

[0081] In one embodiment, the hot air recovery port 111 is detachably connected to the hot air recovery pipe 112. In other words, the position between the hot air recovery port 111 and the hot air recovery pipe 112 is not a fixed structure, and by setting the hot air recovery port 111 to be detachably connected to the hot air recovery pipe 112, the hot air recovery port 111 and the hot air recovery pipe 112 are movable structures, and by adjusting the position of the hot air recovery port 111 relative to the hot air recovery pipe 112, the hot air recovery port 111 is adapted to the structure of the first communication device 100, ensuring that the heat of the first communication device 100 is dissipated in time.

[0082] It is understandable that the hot air recovery pipe 112 can be set on the frame door 4012, and the hot air recovery port 111 can be slidably installed on the hot air recovery pipe 112; the hot air recovery port 111 can also be slidably set on the frame 4011 according to actual needs, which is convenient for installation and disassembly.

[0083] In one embodiment, there are multiple hot air recovery ports 111 , and the multiple hot air recovery ports 111 are arranged along the extension direction of the hot air recovery pipe 112 ; and / or, there are multiple hot air recovery pipes 112 , and the hot air recovery ports 111 are connected to the multiple hot air recovery pipes 112 .

[0084] In other words, the number of hot air recovery ports 111 can be one or more. When the number of hot air recovery ports 111 is multiple, the multiple hot air recovery ports 111 are arranged along the extension direction of the hot air recovery pipe 112, that is, the multiple hot air recovery ports 111 are arranged in sequence along the third direction, so that the first communication device 100 can dissipate heat in time at multiple positions along the first direction.

[0085] like Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, the number of the hot air recovery pipes 112 can be one or more. When the number of the hot air recovery pipes 112 is multiple, the multiple hot air recovery pipes 112 are arranged in sequence along the second direction, so that the heat transfer range flowing out from the hot air recovery port 111 is larger, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency.

[0086] It is understandable that if Figure 6 As shown, the number of the hot air recovery port 111 and the hot air recovery pipe 112 can also be multiple, and the multiple hot air recovery ports 111 and the multiple hot air recovery pipes 112 are correspondingly arranged to further increase the heat discharge effect of the first communication device 100.

[0087] It is understandable that the present embodiment does not limit the number of hot air recovery ports 111 and hot air recovery pipes 112, and they can be adjusted according to actual production needs.

[0088] In one embodiment, Figure 3-Figure 6 As shown, the heat exchange component 400 corresponding to the first communication device 100 also includes a hot and cold partition 402, which is arranged in the frame 401. The hot and cold partition 402 is used to separate the inner cavity of the frame 401 into a hot air zone 13 and a first cold air channel 12. The first cold air channel 12 is arranged corresponding to the first communication device 100 and supplies a cold air flow thereto. The first hot air channel 11 is arranged in the first cold air channel 12, and the end of the first hot air channel 11 away from the hot air recovery port 111 is connected to the hot air zone 13.

[0089] By arranging a hot and cold partition 402 in the frame 401, the hot and cold partition 402 can separate the inner cavity of the frame 401 into a hot air zone 13 and a first cold air channel 12, and the hot and cold partition 402 plays the role of separating hot and cold spaces. The first cold air channel 12 provides cold air for the first communication device 100, and also provides a storage space for the first hot air channel 11. At this time, the inner wall of the first hot air channel 11 is in contact with the hot air flow, and the outer wall of the first hot air channel 11 is in contact with the cold air flow, so as to avoid the mixing of the hot air flow and the cold air flow, thereby ensuring the separation effect of the hot and cold air flows. The end of the first hot air channel 11 away from the hot air recovery port 111 is connected to the hot air zone 13, so that the heat flowing out of the hot air recovery port 111 is transported to the hot air zone 13 through the first hot air channel 11. Under the separation effect of the hot and cold partition 402, the hot air zone 13 and the first cold air channel 12 are completely separated, further ensuring the separation effect of the hot and cold air flows when they are exported.

[0090] It should be noted that, along the third direction, the hot air zone 13 is located above the first cold air channel 12 , so that cold air enters the middle and lower part of the first communication device 100 , and hot air exits the upper part of the first communication device 100 .

[0091] It should be particularly noted that an avoidance groove is provided on the side of the hot and cold partition 402 facing the hot air recovery pipe 112, and the avoidance groove is used to avoid the hot air recovery pipe 112, thereby ensuring the compactness of the structure of the hot and cold partition 402 and the hot air recovery pipe 112, while using the hot air recovery pipe 112 to directly introduce heat into the hot air zone 13.

[0092] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, two hot air outlets 405 are respectively arranged on both sides of the hot air zone 13 along the second direction, and the hot air outlets 405 are used to discharge heat from the heat exchange component 400; two cold air outlets 406 are respectively arranged along the second direction in the first cold air channel 12, and the cold air outlets 406 are used to introduce cold air into the heat exchange component 400.

[0093] It can be understood that the two hot air outlets 405 and the two cold air outlets 406 are equivalent to being respectively arranged on the side surfaces of the frame 401 along the second direction, wherein each side surface of the frame 401 along the second direction is divided into two upper and lower parts by the hot and cold partitions 402, and the two parts correspond to the hot air outlets 405 and the cold air outlets 406 respectively.

[0094] In one embodiment, the heat exchange component 400 further includes a hot air baffle 407 and a cold air baffle 408 . The hot air baffle 407 is detachably connected to the frame 4011 and can be sealed at the hot air outlet 405 . The cold air baffle 408 is detachably connected to the frame 4011 and can be sealed at the cold air outlet 406 .

[0095] It is understandable that the hot air baffle 407 and the cold air baffle 408 can be selectively installed to keep the hot air outlet 405 and the cold air outlet 406 in an open state or a closed state, wherein whether the hot air baffle 407 and the cold air baffle 408 are installed can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0096] Embodiment 2

[0097] The communication device provided in this embodiment includes a second communication device 200. The second communication device 200 is specifically a communication device such as a router or a server. The maximum power of the second communication device 200 can reach 25 kW.

[0098] like Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, the heat exchange component 400 corresponding to the second communication device 200 includes a frame 401, wherein the frame 401 includes a frame body 4011 and a frame door 4012, the frame door 4012 is arranged on the frame 401, and the frame 401 plays a role of overall support.

[0099] It should be particularly noted that the hot air channel includes a second hot air channel 23, and the cold air channel includes a second cold air channel 21. The second hot air channel 23 and the second cold air channel 21 correspond to the second communication device 200. The second hot air channel 23 is used to absorb the heat generated by the second communication device 200, and the second cold air channel 21 is used to deliver cold air to the second communication device 200.

[0100] In one embodiment, the heat exchange component 400 corresponding to the second communication device 200 includes a frame 401 and a hot channel partition assembly 403. The frame 401 is arranged on one side of the second communication device 200 along the second direction, and the hot channel partition assembly 403 is arranged in the frame 401. The hot channel partition assembly 403 is used to separate the inner cavity of the frame 401 to form a second cold air channel 21 and a connecting hot air channel 22. The second cold air channel 21 is arranged corresponding to the second communication device 200 and supplies cold air to it.

[0101] By arranging a hot channel partition assembly 403 in the frame 401, the hot channel partition assembly 403 can divide the inner cavity of the frame 401 into a second cold air channel 21 and a connecting hot air channel 22. The connecting hot air channel 22 is used to transport hot air, and the second cold air channel 21 provides cold air for the second communication device 200. The hot channel partition assembly 403 plays a role in separating hot and cold spaces, avoiding the fusion and mixing of hot air flow and cold air flow, and ensuring the hot and cold air flow separation effect.

[0102] Specifically, the hot channel partition assembly 403 includes a first hot channel partition 4031 and a second hot channel partition 4032. The first hot channel partition 4031 is a U-shaped structure. The opening of the first hot channel partition 4031 is set toward the second communication device 200. The first hot channel partition 4031 is set along the third direction, and the second hot channel partition 4032 is set along the second direction. The first hot channel partition 4031 and the second hot channel partition 4032 are connected to each other so that the second cold air channel 21 is formed in the lower half of the frame 401 along the third direction, and the connecting hot air channel 22 is formed in the upper half of the frame 401 along the third direction.

[0103] In one embodiment, Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, the heat exchange component 400 corresponding to the second communication equipment 200 includes a frame 401 and a cold channel partition assembly 404. The frame 401 is arranged on the other side of the second communication equipment 200 along the second direction, and the cold channel partition assembly 404 is arranged in the frame 401. The cold channel partition assembly 404 is used to separate the inner cavity of the frame 401 to form a second hot air channel 23 and a connecting cold air channel 24. The second hot air channel 23 is arranged corresponding to the second communication equipment 200 and recovers the hot air flow of the second communication equipment 200.

[0104] By arranging a cold channel partition assembly 404 in the frame 401, the cold channel partition assembly 404 can divide the inner cavity of the frame 401 into a second hot air channel 23 and a connecting cold air channel 24. The connecting cold air channel 24 is used to transport cold air, and the second hot air channel 23 is used to recover the heat discharged by the second communication device 200. The cold channel partition assembly 404 plays the role of separating hot and cold spaces, avoiding the fusion and mixing of hot air flow and cold air flow, and ensuring the hot and cold air flow separation effect.

[0105] Specifically, the cold channel baffle assembly 404 includes a first cold channel baffle 4041 and a second cold channel baffle 4042. The first cold channel baffle 4041 is a U-shaped structure. The opening of the first cold channel baffle 4041 is arranged toward the second communication device 200. The first cold channel baffle 4041 is arranged along the third direction, and the second cold channel baffle 4042 is arranged along the second direction. The first cold channel baffle 4041 and the second cold channel baffle 4042 are connected. The second cold channel baffle 4042 divides the frame 401 into two parts, an upper and a lower part, so that the heat discharged from the second communication device 200 along the third direction to the upper part directly enters the upper part of the frame 401, and the heat discharged from the second communication device 200 along the third direction to the lower part is guided to the upper part of the frame 401 through the second cold channel baffle 4042. At this time, the upper and lower parts of the frame 401 can correspond to the second communication device 200, and the heat dissipation area of ​​the second communication device 200 is relatively large. Among them, the space enclosed by the first cold channel partition 4041 and the frame door 4012 of the frame 401 is connected to the cold air channel 24. At this time, the first cold channel partition 4041 contacts the hot air and the cold air on both sides along the second direction respectively, and plays the role of separating the hot and cold air flows. The second cold channel partition 4042 contacts the hot air and the cold air on both sides along the third direction respectively, and plays the role of separating the hot and cold air flows.

[0106] It should be noted that the heat exchange components 400 on both sides of the first communication device 100 along the first direction have the same structure, while the heat exchange components 400 on both sides of the second communication device 200 along the first direction have different structures. This is equivalent to removing the hot air recovery port 111, the hot air recovery pipe 112 and the hot and cold partition 402 from the heat exchange components 400 corresponding to the first communication device 100, installing a hot channel partition assembly 403 in the frame 401 of one of the heat exchange components 400, and installing a cold channel partition assembly 404 in the frame 401 of another heat exchange component 400, thereby realizing "single-side cold air inlet and single-side hot air outlet" of the second communication device 200, which can also be called a cold air delivery structure at the front and hot air return structure at the back, forming a cabinet-level refrigeration unit, and hot air will not spread to the computer room, and will not affect the computer room environment.

[0107] Embodiment 3

[0108] The communication heat exchange system provided in this embodiment is similar to the embodiment 1, but based on the embodiment 1, the communication heat exchange system further includes an air conditioning device 300 (such as Figure 9-10 As shown in the figure, the air inlet of the air conditioning device 300 is connected to the hot air channel, and the air outlet of the air conditioning device 300 is connected to the cold air channel. The air conditioning device 300 is used to cool the heat to form cold air, that is, the air conditioning device 300 is used to realize the cooling process. Through the mutual cooperation of the cold air channel, the hot air channel and the air conditioning device 300, the cold and hot air flows are separated, and the cabinet-level precise cooling can be realized, the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioning device 300 is improved, and the local PUE can be increased by 1.15-1.2, with obvious energy-saving effect.

[0109] It should be noted that the specific structure of the air conditioning device 300 is not limited in this embodiment, and an existing air conditioner or a subsequently improved air conditioner can be used, as long as the refrigeration function can be achieved, it is within the protection scope of this embodiment. It is understandable that the air conditioning device 300 is not limited to this embodiment, and the air conditioning device 300 can be set in various embodiments.

[0110] In one embodiment, the communication device includes a first communication device 100, two first communication devices 100 are arranged along a first direction and disposed back to back to form a first communication group, and two heat exchange components 400 are respectively disposed on both sides of the first communication group along the first direction.

[0111] When two first communication devices 100 are arranged along the first direction and are set back to back, it is equivalent to the first communication group adopting a back-to-back double-sided cabinet structure. The two heat exchange components 400 are respectively set on both sides of the first communication group along the first direction. The structure is reasonable to adapt to the backup heat of the first communication group, ensure the heat exchange requirements of the first communication group, and have relatively high energy efficiency.

[0112] It can be understood that, for the first communication group, the air conditioning device 300 can be arranged on one side of the first communication group along the second direction, and for the heat exchange components 400 located on both sides of the first communication group along the first direction, the hot air outlet 405 and the cold air outlet 406 of the heat exchange component 400 close to the air conditioning device 300 are in an open state, and the hot air outlet 405 and the cold air outlet 406 of the heat exchange component 400 away from the air conditioning device 300 are blocked by the hot air baffle 407 and the cold air baffle 408 and are in a closed state. Therefore, the hot air flowing out of the hot air outlet 405 enters the air conditioning device 300, and the air conditioning device 300 cools the hot air into cold air, and then enters the first cold air channel 12 through the cold air outlet 406.

[0113] In one embodiment, Figure 9-10 As shown, multiple first communication groups are arranged along the second direction. Along the second direction, the hot air areas 13 corresponding to two adjacent heat exchange components 400 are interconnected, and the first cold air channels 12 corresponding to two adjacent heat exchange components are interconnected; wherein the first direction and the second direction are arranged vertically.

[0114] When the number of first communication groups is multiple, the multiple first communication groups are arranged along the second direction, that is, the multiple first communication groups are arranged in series along the second direction, and the hot air areas 13 corresponding to two adjacent heat exchange components 400 are interconnected to form a complete channel for hot air to pass through, and the first cold air channels 12 corresponding to two adjacent heat exchange components are interconnected to form a complete channel for cold air to pass through.

[0115] At this time, two air conditioning devices 300 are respectively arranged on both sides of the plurality of first communication groups along the second direction. Since each first communication group corresponds to two heat exchange components 400 along the first direction, the two air conditioning devices 300 simultaneously exchange heat for these heat exchange components 400. Specifically, the hot air baffles 407 and the cold air baffles 408 of the heat exchange components 400 are all removed, so that all the hot air ports 405 and cold air ports 406 are in an open state. For each first communication device 100, the heat first enters the hot air recovery port 111 located at the bottom of the first communication device 100 along the third direction, and is guided to the hot air area 13 located at the top of the first communication device 100 along the third direction through the hot air recovery pipe 112. For the heat exchange components 400 located on the same side of the first direction, their hot air zones 13 are interconnected, and the heat can be dispersed to the two air-conditioning devices 300 respectively. After the two air-conditioning devices 300 complete the refrigeration to form cold air, the first cold air channels 12 corresponding to the two adjacent heat exchange components 400 are interconnected, so that the cold air can be transported to the first cold air channels 12 respectively in turn, thereby realizing the process of sending cold air to the first communication group.

[0116] It is understandable that, by adopting this series connection direction of the first communication groups, it is not necessary for each first communication group to correspond to an air conditioning device 300. Even if the first communication group is located in the middle position along the second direction, it is still possible to recover hot air and introduce cold air.

[0117] It is understandable that the series connection of multiple first communication groups needs to be coordinated with the corresponding air-conditioning device 300. The air-conditioning device 300 and the multiple first communication groups form a double-sided cold air supply and double-sided and upper-side hot air return structure. The hot air will not spread to the computer room and will not affect the computer room environment, so a cabinet-level refrigeration unit can be formed.

[0118] Embodiment 4

[0119] like Figure 11-Figure 12 As shown, in the communication heat exchange system provided by this embodiment, air conditioners 300 are respectively arranged on both sides of the second communication device 200 along the second direction, that is, two air conditioners 300 sandwich the second communication device 200, and since each second communication group corresponds to two heat exchange components 400 along the first direction, the two air conditioners 300 simultaneously exchange heat for these heat exchange components 400. Specifically, the hot air baffles 407 and the cold air baffles 408 of the heat exchange components 400 are all removed, so that all the hot air outlets 405 and the cold air outlets 406 are in an open state.

[0120] For each second communication device 200, the two heat exchange components 400 along the first direction have different internal structures and functions. The heat generated by the second communication device 200 enters the second hot air channel 23 at the rear side along the first direction, and then is divided to the two air conditioning devices 300 through the hot air outlets 405 at both ends of the second hot air channel 23. After the air conditioning device 300 cools the hot air to form cold air, the cold air enters the second cold air channel 21 at the front side of the first direction to complete the cold air supply process for the second communication device 200.

[0121] It is understandable that the second communication device 200 needs to remove the hot air recovery port 111 and the hot air recovery pipe 112 when performing heat exchange. A single second communication device 200 needs to cooperate with the corresponding air-conditioning device 300. The second communication device 200 and the air-conditioning device 300 form a structure that sends cold air from the front side and returns hot air from the rear side along the first direction. The hot air will not spread to the computer room and will not affect the environment of the computer room, so a cabinet-level refrigeration unit can be formed.

[0122] Embodiment 5

[0123] like Figure 13-Figure 14 As shown, in the communication heat exchange system provided by this embodiment, the first communication group and the second communication equipment 200 are arranged along the second direction, and the two hot air zones 13 of the first communication group along the first direction are respectively connected to the connected hot air channel 22 and the second hot air channel 23 corresponding to the second communication equipment 200, and the two first cold air channels 12 of the first communication group along the first direction are respectively connected to the second cold air channel 21 and the connected cold air channel 24 corresponding to the second communication equipment 200.

[0124] It can be understood that the first communication group is a double-sided cold air delivery structure, and the second communication device 200 is a single-sided cold air delivery structure. By arranging the first communication group and the second communication device 200 along the second direction, a double-sided and single-sided mixed cold air delivery structure can be achieved. The corresponding structures of the first communication group and the second communication device 200 and the air conditioning device 300 have been described in detail above, so they will not be repeated here. Only the connection of hot air and cold air between the first communication group and the second communication device 200 is different.

[0125] Specifically, by setting two hot air zones 13 along the first direction of the first communication group, they are respectively connected to the connected hot air channel 22 and the second hot air channel 23 corresponding to the second communication device 200, that is, the hot air zone 13 of the first communication group on the rear side along the first direction is connected to the second hot air channel 23 of the second communication device 200, the hot air zone 13 and the second hot air channel 23 are equivalent to being arranged in series and interconnected to form a complete hot air delivery channel to provide hot air for the air-conditioning device 300. At the same time, the hot air zone 13 of the first communication group on the front side along the first direction is connected to the connected hot air channel 22 of the second communication device 200, and the connected hot air channel 22 acts as an intermediate circulation channel. Although cold air enters the front side of the second communication device 200, it also acts as a hot air connection between the first communication group and the air-conditioning device 300.

[0126] The two first cold air channels 12 along the first direction of the first communication group are respectively connected to the second cold air channel 21 and the connecting cold air channel 24 corresponding to the second communication device 200, that is, the first cold air channel 12 of the first communication group along the front side of the first direction is connected to the second cold air channel 21 of the second communication device 200, the first cold air channel 12 and the second cold air channel 21 are equivalent to being arranged in series and interconnected to form a complete cold air delivery channel to provide cold air for each communication device. At the same time, the first cold air channel 12 of the first communication group along the rear side of the first direction is connected to the connecting cold air channel 24 of the second communication device 200, and the connecting cold air channel 24 acts as an intermediate circulation channel. Although hot air is discharged from the rear side of the second communication device 200, it also acts as a cold air connection between the first communication group and the air-conditioning device 300.

[0127] In one embodiment, the second communication device 200 is disposed outside the plurality of first communication groups; and / or the second communication device 200 is disposed between two adjacent first communication devices 100 .

[0128] It is understandable that if Figure 13-Figure 14 As shown, by arranging the second communication device 200 outside the plurality of first communication groups, a double-sided and single-sided mixed cooling air supply structure is realized. Figure 15-16 As shown, the second communication device 200 is arranged between two adjacent first communication groups, so as to realize the double-sided, single-sided and double-sided mixed cold air supply structure. Specifically, the second communication device 200 is arranged between the two first communication devices 100, the two first communication devices 100 and the second communication device 200 are connected in series, and cooperate with the corresponding air-conditioning device 300 to realize cooling and heat dissipation, and ensure that the cold and hot air flows are not mixed.

[0129] It should be particularly noted that, with respect to the front side along the first direction, the hot air zones 13 of two adjacent first communication devices 100 are connected via a connecting hot air channel 22 corresponding to the second communication device 200; and with respect to the rear side along the first direction, the first cold air channels 12 of two adjacent first communication devices 100 are connected via a connecting cold air channel 24 corresponding to the second communication device 200.

[0130] It is understandable that multiple heat exchange components 400 can be connected in series to provide cooling and heat dissipation for multiple communication devices at the same time, and ensure that the cold and hot air flows are not mixed, and can be arranged when multiple first communication devices 100 and second communication devices 200 are mixed to form a cabinet-level refrigeration unit.

[0131] Therefore, the communication heat exchange system provided by the present invention can realize a double-sided cold air supply structure, a single-sided cold air supply structure, a single-sided + double-sided mixed cold air supply structure, and a double-sided + single-sided + double-sided cold air supply structure. It can be modified for air supply of various communication equipment, flexibly adapt to various communication equipment structure types, and has various and flexible application methods. While ensuring cooling, it prevents the mixing of cold and hot air flows.
