Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning technology, specifically to a combined direct evaporative cooling air conditioning unit. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, my country's data centers have experienced rapid growth in scale and power density, resulting in increasing heat generation and the need for uninterrupted cooling throughout the year. This has led to a rapid increase in the electricity consumption of air conditioning equipment in data centers, making energy conservation a pressing issue. Reducing the energy consumption of air conditioning systems is key to achieving green and sustainable development of data centers. Evaporative cooling air conditioning technology utilizes dry air energy to obtain the required cooling capacity. In the relatively dry northwest and northern regions of my country, where the calculated wet-bulb temperature of outdoor air is low and the diurnal temperature range of dry-bulb temperature is large in summer, evaporative cooling technology can be fully utilized for natural cooling, reducing electricity consumption and demonstrating significant energy-saving effects. Furthermore, the increasing number of cloud computing data centers, compared to internet data centers, offers more flexible temperature and humidity requirements and higher temperature and humidity compatibility, providing a foundation for the widespread use of evaporative cooling air conditioning units and making evaporative cooling technology a promising area for application in data centers.
[0003] The following problems exist in the existing technology:
[0004] Under current technology, the heat exchange efficiency of indirect evaporative cooling is generally 50%–80%, while that of direct evaporative cooling is generally 70%–90%. It is evident that direct evaporative cooling is more efficient. Furthermore, it has a smaller temperature difference and a longer natural cooling time, resulting in better energy savings. The rational use of direct evaporative cooling air conditioning units has considerable economic and social benefits and is also conducive to energy conservation and emission reduction. Addressing the increasing cooling demand of data centers while societal requirements for energy conservation and emission reduction are becoming increasingly stringent, we propose a combined direct evaporative cooling air conditioning unit for cloud computing data centers. This unit fully utilizes dry air energy, saving energy and reducing consumption while ensuring the cooling needs of data centers. Therefore, we propose a combined direct evaporative cooling air conditioning unit to solve the aforementioned problems. Summary of the Invention

The filter components employ multi-layered fiberglass paper and a support plate to improve air filtration, ensuring the air undergoes multiple layers of filtration before entering the data center, thus enhancing airtightness. When the dust adhering to the filter components reaches a certain level, their fixing frame automatically drops, facilitating filter replacement without manual intervention, saving labor costs.

Detailed Implementation
[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0032] Please see Figures 1-9This invention provides a combined direct evaporative cooling air conditioning unit, including a mixing section 4, which includes a fresh air electric valve 9, a return air electric valve 11, and an exhaust air electric valve 13. The return air electric valve 11 and the exhaust air electric valve 13 are located on top of the fresh air electric valve 9. A filter section 5 is provided on one side of the mixing section 4, including a pre-filter 10, which is located on the side of the fresh air electric valve 9 near the filter section 5 and is connected to the fresh air electric valve 9. A medium-efficiency filter 19 is provided on the side of the pre-filter 10 away from the fresh air electric valve 9. A direct evaporative cooling section 6 is provided on the side of the filter section 5 away from the mixing section 4, including a baffle plate 14 and a water pump 15. A supplementary cooling section 7 is provided on the side of the direct evaporative cooling section 6 away from the filter section 5, including an evaporator 16. The air passing through the fresh air electric valve 9 passes through the pre-filter 10 and the medium-efficiency filter 19 and then reacts with the air generated by the evaporator 16. The air produced is mixed, and the cooling section 7 is located on the side away from the direct evaporation cooling section 6. The air supply section 8 includes a supply fan 18 and a return fan 17. The return fan 17 returns the return air to the mixing section 4 through the return air electric valve 11 and the exhaust air electric valve 13. When the outdoor temperature is low, the fresh air, return air and exhaust air electric valves 3 are adjusted and operated to mix the outdoor fresh air and return air and use natural cold source for cooling. When the outdoor air humidity meets the indoor air humidity requirements, the outdoor fresh air and return air are directly mixed and supplied. When the outdoor air humidity is lower than the indoor air humidity requirements, the direct evaporation section spray humidification is turned on at the same time. When the outdoor air humidity is higher than the indoor air humidity requirements, the DX direct expansion system dehumidification is turned on at the same time. When the outdoor temperature is high, the fresh air and exhaust air electric valves 3 are opened and the return air electric valve 11 is closed, and the unit is switched to 100% fresh air mode. When the outdoor air humidity is lower than the indoor air humidity requirements, the outdoor fresh air and direct evaporation cooling are used for cooling. If direct evaporative cooling still cannot meet the supply air temperature requirements, the DX direct expansion refrigeration system will be activated for supplemental cooling. In areas with low outdoor wet-bulb temperatures, the DX refrigeration system does not need to be activated. When outdoor air humidity is higher than the required indoor air humidity, the DX direct expansion system will be activated for cooling and dehumidification. When severe outdoor environmental pollution occurs, the fresh air and exhaust electric valves 3 will be closed, and the return air electric valve 11 will be opened. The unit will then operate in return air mode, utilizing the DX direct expansion system for cooling.
[0033] To reduce labor costs, an automatically replaceable air filter is included. The primary filter 10 contains a ventilation duct 1 for external air to enter the data center. A mounting channel 101 for securing multiple components is fixedly connected to the top of the ventilation duct 1. The mounting channel 101 houses a filter assembly 2 for preliminary filtration of external air. A connecting component 3 for stabilizing the filter assembly 2 is located on the inner wall of the mounting channel 101. The filter assembly 2 is fixed to the mounting channel 101 via the connecting component 3. A connecting window 102 for the filter assembly 2 to pass through is located at the top of the mounting channel 101. Air supply windows 104 for communicating with the ventilation duct 1 are located on both sides of the mounting channel 101. The filter assembly 2 is placed within the air supply windows 104, completely sealing the air supply windows 104. The inner wall of the connecting window 102 is closed, and guide grooves 105 are provided on both sides to facilitate the movement of the filter assembly 2. The guide grooves 105 are symmetrically distributed along the axis of the installation channel 101. The inner wall of the connecting window 102 is provided on both sides to install the connecting assembly 3. The mounting grooves 106 are symmetrically distributed along the axis of the installation channel 101. The filter assembly 2 includes a fixing frame 201 for fixing multiple parts. The fixing frame 201 is placed inside the connecting window 102 and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting window 102. The fixing frame 201 is built into a multi-layer glass fiber paper 202 for filtering air impurities. Multiple receiving plates 203 for accumulating dust are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 201. The side of the receiving plate 203 near the fixing frame 201 is connected to the glass fiber paper 202. 2. Multiple receiving plates 203 are evenly distributed along the height direction of the fixed frame 201. A support plate 204 for contacting other filter components 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the fixed frame 201. The surface of the support plate 204 has a connecting hole 205 for easy lifting by the user. Multiple fixing rollers 206 for stabilizing the other filter components 2 are fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame 201. The fixing rollers 206 are evenly distributed along the width direction of the fixed frame 201. Multiple fixing holes 207 matching the fixing rollers 206 are opened at the bottom of the fixed frame 201. The ends of the fixing rollers 206 and the fixing holes 207 that are close to each other have triggering inclined surfaces 214 to facilitate contact between them. The fixing rollers 206 are slidably connected to the hole walls of the fixing holes 207. The two sides of the fixed frame 201 are fixedly connected to There are mounting bases 211 for cooperating with the connecting component 3. The two mounting bases 211 are symmetrically distributed along the axis of the fixed frame 201. The end of the mounting base 211 away from the fixed frame 201 is fixedly connected to the hanging plate 212 for stabilizing the overall filter component 2. The connecting component 3 is provided with fixing grooves 301 for installing multiple parts. The fixing grooves 301 are opened on both sides of the groove wall of the mounting groove 106. The two mounting grooves 106 are symmetrically distributed along the axis of the hanging plate 212. The bottom of the inner cavity of the mounting groove 106 is rotatably connected to the mounting roller 302 for connecting the fixing base 304. The two ends of the mounting roller 302 are sleeved with coil springs 303 for driving the fixing base 304 to move. The coil springs 303 are placed in the fixing groove 301, and one end of the coil springs 303 is fixedly connected to the groove wall of the fixing groove 301.The other end of the coil spring 303 is fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting roller 302. The fixing seat 304 is sleeved on the surface of the mounting roller 302 and fixedly connected thereto. A top seat 305 for supporting the filter assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixing seat 304 away from the mounting channel 101. The upper end face of the top seat 305 contacts and slides with the lower end face of the hanging plate 212. Multiple filter assemblies 2 are placed in the mounting channel 101 of the ventilation duct 1. Multiple fixed frames with glass fiber paper 202 are stacked on top of each other. The fixing holes 207 at the bottom of the upper fixed frame 201 are fixed. The filter assembly 2 is fixed in contact with the fixing holes 207 at the top of the lower fixing frame 201. The hanging plates 212 on both sides of the fixing frame 201 move within the mounting groove 106 without contacting the mounting plate. When the hanging plate 212 encounters multiple top seats 305 on the inner wall of the mounting duct 101, the top seats 305 are driven by the spring force of the coil springs 303 at both ends to contact the hanging plates 212 on both sides of the filter assembly 2 for support and fixation. When the fresh air is filtered by the primary filter, it undergoes preliminary filtration of the air under the action of the multi-layer glass fiber paper 202 set in the ventilation duct 1. The large amount of impurities and dust on the surface of the fiberglass paper 202 and multiple receiving plates 203 increases the weight of the overall filter assembly 2. As more and more dust accumulates on the top of the receiving plates 203 and inside the fiberglass paper 202, the filter assembly 2 drives the top seat 305 to rotate around the axis of the mounting roller 302, causing the fixed frame 201 to move lower and lower. During the downward movement of the fixed frame 201, the top support plate 204 continues to seal the connecting window 102, ensuring that the air still needs to pass through multiple layers of filtration before reaching the data center, resulting in higher airtightness. When the overall weight of the filter assembly 2 reaches a critical point, its fixed frame 201 will fall completely out of the connecting window 102, and the other filter assemblies 2 on top will naturally fill the gap in the air supply window 104. When the filter elements are covered with a large amount of dust and need to be replaced, the entire device can automatically replace the filter elements without manual intervention. Only occasional collection and addition of filter elements 2 by personnel is required, which is more time-saving and labor-saving. Furthermore, the preset dust level for filter element replacement can prevent excessive dust accumulation during daily use.
[0034] To reduce the friction of the overall device, multiple connecting seats 208 for mounting guide wheels 210 are fixedly connected to both sides of the fixed frame 201. The multiple connecting seats 208 are evenly distributed along the height direction of the fixed frame 201. The end of the connecting seat 208 away from the fixed frame 201 has a connecting groove 213 for mounting a rotating rod 209. The rotating rod 209 extends through the groove wall of the connecting groove 213 to the outside. The rotating rod 209 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 208. The surface of the rotating rod 209 is sleeved with a guide wheel 210 for contacting the inner wall of the guide groove 105. The guide wheel 210 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 209. The guide wheel 210 is placed in the mounting groove 106 and slidably connected to the groove wall of the mounting groove 106. The side of the guide wheel 210 away from the fixed frame 201 contacts the groove wall of the guide groove 105. The multiple guide wheels 210 reduce the friction between the filter assembly 2 and the mounting channel 101, so that the connecting assembly 3 can fully control the falling of the filter assembly 2.
[0035] Working principle
[0036] When the outdoor temperature is low, the fresh air electric valve 9, the return air electric valve 11 and the exhaust air electric valve 13 are adjusted and operated to mix the outdoor fresh air and return air and use the natural cold source for cooling. When the outdoor air humidity meets the indoor air humidity requirements, the outdoor fresh air and return air are directly mixed and then supplied. When the outdoor air humidity is lower than the indoor air humidity requirements, the direct evaporation section spray humidification is turned on at the same time. When the outdoor air humidity is higher than the indoor air humidity requirements, the DX direct expansion system dehumidification is turned on at the same time.
[0037] When the outdoor temperature is high, the fresh air electric valve 9 and the exhaust electric valve 13 open, while the return air electric valve 11 closes, switching the unit to 100% fresh air mode. When the outdoor air humidity is lower than the indoor air humidity requirement, cooling is provided using outdoor fresh air plus direct evaporative cooling. If the supply air temperature requirement is still not met after direct evaporative cooling, the DX direct expansion cooling system is activated to supplement cooling. For areas with low outdoor wet-bulb temperatures, the DX cooling system does not need to be activated. When the outdoor air humidity is higher than the indoor air humidity requirement, the DX direct expansion system is activated for cooling and dehumidification.
[0038] When severe environmental pollution occurs outdoors, the fresh air electric valve 9 and the exhaust electric valve 13 are closed, and the return air electric valve 11 is opened. The unit adopts the return air mode and uses the DX direct expansion system for cooling.
[0039] In daily use, multiple filter components 2 can be placed in the installation channel 101 of the ventilation duct 1. Multiple fixed frames with glass fiber paper 202 installed are stacked on top of each other. The fixing holes 207 at the bottom of the upper fixed frame 201 contact and fix with the fixing holes 207 at the top of the lower fixed frame 201. The hanging plates 212 on both sides of the fixed frame 201 move within the installation groove 106 without contacting it. When the hanging plate 212 encounters multiple top seats 305 on the inner wall of the installation channel 101, the top seats 305 will be activated by the coil springs 30 at both ends. 3. The elastic drive contacts the mounting plates 212 on both sides of the filter assembly 2 for support and fixation. When fresh air passes through the pre-filter 10, it undergoes preliminary filtration under the action of multiple layers of glass fiber paper 202 installed in the ventilation duct 1. A large amount of impurities and dust are placed on the surface of the glass fiber paper 202 and multiple receiving plates 203, increasing the overall weight of the filter assembly 2. As more and more dust accumulates on the top of the receiving plate 203 and inside the glass fiber paper 202, the filter assembly 2 will drive the top seat 305. Rotating around the axis of the mounting roller 302 causes the fixed frame 201 to move lower and lower. As the fixed frame 201 moves downward, the top support plate 204 continues to seal the connecting window 102, ensuring that the air still needs to pass through multiple layers of filtration before reaching the data center, thus achieving higher airtightness. When the overall weight of the filter assembly 2 reaches a critical point, its fixed frame 201 will fall completely out of the connecting window 102. Other filter assemblies 2 on top will naturally fill the gap in the air supply window 104. The multiple guide wheels 210 reduce the friction between the filter assembly 2 and the mounting channel 101, allowing the connecting assembly 3 to fully control the falling of the filter assembly 2. When the filter element is covered with a large amount of dust and needs to be replaced, the entire device can automatically replace the filter element without manual intervention. Only occasional collection and addition of the filter assembly 2 are required, which is more time-saving and labor-saving. Furthermore, the preset dust level for filter element replacement can prevent staff from forgetting to inspect the ventilation duct 1 during daily use, resulting in excessive dust accumulation and affecting the subsequent air conditioning effect.

The air conditioning unit uses direct evaporative cooling technology and has three modes: fresh air and return air mixing, fresh air and full return air. It makes full use of natural cold sources and uses the evaporative cooling section and DX direct expansion cooling section to regulate the temperature and humidity of the unit's supply air to meet the energy-saving needs of different seasons.
