Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of IDC computer room power consumption control, and in particular to a system and method for generating a power saving plan for IDC computer room facilities based on usage data. Background Art

[0002] IDC room Internet Data Center, that is, Internet data center, is a place where servers, storage and network equipment are concentrated to provide support for various Internet services. The power-consuming equipment in IDC room mainly includes the following categories:

[0003] Server: The server is the core equipment in the IDC computer room, which is used to store, process and send data, and its power consumption is very large. Network equipment: including routers, switches, firewalls, etc., which are responsible for forwarding data packets and ensuring network security, and are also the main power-consuming equipment. Storage equipment: such as hard disk arrays, solid-state disk arrays, etc., are used to store large amounts of data and are also one of the power-consuming equipment. Uninterruptible power supply (UPS): When the power grid is out of power, UPS can provide temporary power supply for the computer room to ensure the normal operation of equipment such as servers. Its battery charging and discharging process consumes power. Air conditioning equipment: The IDC computer room needs to maintain constant temperature and humidity, so precision air conditioning is indispensable, and its power consumption is also quite large. Security equipment: including surveillance cameras, access control systems, alarm systems, etc. Although the power consumption of a single device is not large, it is also part of the overall power consumption. Lighting equipment: Although the IDC computer room usually does not require too much lighting, necessary lighting equipment is still needed. Auxiliary equipment: such as cables, wires, distribution cabinets, etc., although they do not directly consume power, there will be certain losses during the power transmission process.

[0004] In order to improve energy efficiency and reduce operating costs, IDC computer rooms usually take various energy-saving measures, such as using high-efficiency servers, optimizing air conditioning systems, and adopting energy-saving lighting. At the same time, the design and management of computer rooms will also fully consider energy efficiency issues. Through reasonable planning, unnecessary energy consumption can be reduced, carbon emissions can be reduced, and the requirements of green environmental protection and sustainable development can be met. Optimizing power planning can reduce operating costs and improve economic benefits. Resource optimization: Rationally allocate power resources, ensure power supply for key infrastructure and critical periods, and improve resource utilization efficiency. Scientific power planning helps ensure a stable power supply in the IDC computer room and avoid system failures caused by insufficient power or excessive load.

[0005] At present, the power control scheme of IDC computer rooms is generally implemented based on temperature monitoring in the computer room. However, under this power control scheme, it may happen that the power-consuming equipment in a certain area of ​​the computer room is concentrated in a high-power operation state, causing the temperature of this area to be higher than the monitored temperature in the computer room, while the temperature of other areas is lower than the monitored temperature in the computer room. Therefore, if the power of air-conditioning equipment is adjusted only by temperature monitoring at specific points, firstly, more energy consumption will occur, and secondly, the local temperature cannot be effectively reduced. This does not meet the energy consumption control requirements of IDC computer rooms. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problem of IDC room facility power consumption control, the present invention provides a system and method for generating an IDC room facility power saving plan based on usage data. The following technical solution is adopted:

[0007] A power saving scheme generating system for IDC computer room facilities based on usage data includes an IDC computer room facility usage data collector, a usage data analysis module, air conditioning equipment, an air outlet position adjustment unit, multiple temperature monitoring modules, and a computer-based IDC computer room cooling controller, wherein the data input end of the IDC computer room facility usage data collector is respectively connected to multiple power-using facilities in the IDC computer room to collect power usage data, the IDC computer room facility usage data collector communicates and exchanges power usage data with the usage data analysis module, the usage data analysis module divides the power-using facilities in the IDC computer room into regions based on the average power consumption based on historical usage data to obtain multiple cooling core areas, and obtains the average power consumption and total power consumption of multiple cooling core areas at each hour based on the historical usage data analysis;

[0008] An air outlet position adjustment unit is arranged on the top of the IDC room, the cold air outlet of the air conditioning equipment is connected with the cold air input port of the air outlet position adjustment unit, and the air outlet position adjustment unit is provided with a plurality of adjustable air outlets, and the plurality of adjustable air outlets are located above the physical center positions of the plurality of cooling core areas;

[0009] Multiple temperature monitoring modules respectively monitor the temperatures of the physical center positions of multiple cooling core areas;

[0010] The IDC room cooling controller is respectively connected to the usage data analysis module and multiple temperature monitoring modules. The IDC room cooling controller is equipped with a fixed power-saving cooling solution, a key area power-saving cooling solution, and a temporary power-saving cooling solution.

[0011] The IDC room cooling controller generates a power-saving cooling scheme based on the analysis results of the data analysis module and the temperature monitoring results of multiple temperature monitoring modules, and controls the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment and the execution action of the air outlet position adjustment unit based on the power-saving cooling scheme.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the IDC computer room facility usage data collector can be a multi-channel data collector, which can collect power consumption data of multiple power facilities in the IDC computer room in real time and continuously, and use the data analysis module to exchange power consumption data with the IDC computer room facility usage data collector, and divide the power facilities in the IDC computer room into regions based on the average power consumption based on the previous historical usage data. The historical usage data here refers to the historical usage data under the current equipment hardware layout and load. Based on the historical usage data, the IDC computer room can be divided into multiple cooling core areas. In fact, the areas corresponding to the multiple cooling core areas are generally key equipment such as the processor area, the memory area, and the switch area.

[0013] The power consumption of the above equipment cannot actually be reduced. The only way to reduce the heat generation is to optimize the cooling solution of the IDC room, thereby achieving the control goals of power saving and stable operation.

[0014] The air outlet position adjustment unit is set up, and multiple adjustable air outlets of the air outlet position adjustment unit are located above the physical center of multiple cooling core areas, which can dissipate heat for multiple cooling core areas more specifically, and its heat dissipation effect is better than the conventional heat dissipation solution based on the structure of the computer room;

[0015] At the same time, the data analysis module also obtains the average power consumption and total power consumption of multiple cooling core areas at each hour based on historical usage data analysis;

[0016] For example, the estimation of the power consumption of key devices such as CPU and memory in the cooling core area can be achieved based on the following steps:

[0017] For the CPU, power consumption is estimated based on the CPU's TDP (thermal design power) and actual operating frequency and core usage.

[0018] Memory power consumption: estimated based on the power consumption specifications and read and write frequencies of the memory (hard disk, memory).

[0019] A power consumption model is established, using a linear model where the power consumption is proportional to the load.

[0020] The CPU power consumption is calculated using the following formula: ;

[0021] in is the CPU power consumption, is the CPU thermal design power, is the actual operating frequency, is the maximum operating frequency, is the core utilization.

[0022] Memory power consumption conversion: The power consumption conversion uses the following formula:

[0023] ;

[0024] in is the memory power consumption, is the idle state power consumption, is the maximum power consumption, is the memory read and write frequency;

[0025] By estimating the power consumption of key equipment in the above cooling core area, the average power consumption and total power consumption in the area can be calculated;

[0026] The total power consumption can be used to adjust the cooling capacity of air-conditioning equipment, and the average power consumption can be used as a basis for whether to focus on cooling the key cooling core area during this time period. The historical usage data can provide feedback that at this point in time, the power consumption of a certain cooling core area is high, while other areas are low. If the IDC room cooling controller adopts a fixed cooling solution, the area with high power consumption will accumulate heat, while other areas will be overheated, resulting in excessive local heat generation and increased power consumption, and no effective cooling, and the stability of equipment operation cannot be guaranteed. At this time, the IDC room cooling controller adopts the key area power-saving cooling solution to perform targeted heat dissipation, thereby effectively cooling the key cooling core area under the same cooling capacity to avoid local heat accumulation;

[0027] It achieves uniform heat dissipation for all cooling core areas under the premise of the same air-conditioning cooling capacity, reduces ineffective energy consumption caused by stack heat, improves the energy utilization efficiency of physical servers, saves electricity, and ensures the stable operation of IDC computer room facilities.

[0028] Optionally, the usage data analysis module includes a usage data storage device and a data analysis chip, wherein the usage data storage device is communicatively connected to a data output terminal of the IDC computer room facility usage data collector, and the data analysis chip is communicatively connected to the usage data storage device.

[0029] Optionally, the air outlet position adjustment unit includes an integrated block, a multi-way solenoid valve, a multi-way air duct and a plurality of adjustable air outlets, the integrated block is provided with a cold air inlet and a plurality of cold air outlets, the cold air outlet of the air-conditioning equipment is connected with the cold air inlet of the integrated block, the plurality of cold air outlets are connected with the multi-way inlet of the multi-way solenoid valve, the multi-way outlets of the multi-way solenoid valve are respectively connected with the inlets of the plurality of adjustable air outlets, the plurality of adjustable air outlets are respectively detachably installed above the physical center position of the plurality of cooling core areas, and the air outlets face downward.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, the multiple outlets of the multi-way solenoid valve can be quickly switched, thereby realizing the automatic adjustment of the power-saving cooling solution of the corresponding cooling core area by flexibly switching the multiple outlets of the multi-way solenoid valve without changing the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment. The power consumption of the multi-way solenoid valve is negligible for the electrical facilities of the IDC room.

[0031] Optionally, the IDC computer room cooling controller includes a power-saving cooling scheme memory and a computer, wherein the power-saving cooling scheme memory stores control instructions based on fixed power-saving cooling schemes, key area power-saving cooling schemes and temporary power-saving cooling schemes, and the computer is respectively communicated with a data analysis module and multiple temperature monitoring modules, and the power-saving cooling scheme memory stores fixed power-saving cooling schemes, key area power-saving cooling schemes and temporary power-saving cooling schemes.

[0032] Optionally, the IDC room cooling controller further includes a main control chip, which is communicatively connected to the computer and controls the execution actions of the air conditioning equipment and the multi-way solenoid valve respectively based on a control instruction set corresponding to the generated power-saving and cooling solution.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the computer can form a corresponding power-saving and cooling plan for each hour based on the data from the data analysis module and multiple temperature monitoring modules, and generate a control instruction set for the main control chip. The main control chip controls the execution actions of the air-conditioning equipment and the multi-way solenoid valves respectively according to the control instruction set, thereby realizing the automatic switching of the power-saving and cooling plan.

[0034] Optionally, the temperature monitoring module is a temperature sensor.

[0035] The method for generating a power saving plan for an IDC computer room facility based on usage data uses a power saving plan generating system for an IDC computer room facility based on usage data to control the temperature of a target IDC computer room, including the following steps:

[0036] Step 1: The IDC room facilities use a data collector to collect power consumption data of multiple power-consuming facilities in the IDC room;

[0037] Step 2: Use the data analysis module to exchange power consumption data with the IDC room facility usage data collector, divide the power consumption facilities in the IDC room into regions based on the average power consumption based on the previous historical usage data, obtain multiple cooling core areas, set a data analysis cycle, and obtain the average power consumption and total power consumption of multiple cooling core areas at each hour based on the usage data of the previous data analysis cycle;

[0038] Step 3, the computer interacts with the data analysis module to obtain the average power consumption and total power consumption of multiple cooling core areas at each hour, establishes a correlation model between the total power consumption and the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment, obtains the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment based on the correlation model, and selects a corresponding power-saving cooling scheme from the fixed power-saving cooling scheme, the key area power-saving cooling scheme, and the temporary power-saving cooling scheme based on the average power consumption of multiple cooling core areas and the temperature values ​​of multiple temperature monitoring modules;

[0039] Step 4: The main control chip controls the execution action of the air-conditioning equipment based on the cooling capacity generated in step 3, and controls the execution action of the multi-way solenoid valve based on the generated power-saving and cooling solution.

[0040] Optionally, in step 3, the cooling capacity is calculated using the following formula:

[0041] ;

[0042] in is the cooling capacity, is the total heat load, is the energy efficiency ratio of the air conditioner;

[0043] The calculation formula is:

[0044] ;

[0045] in is the redundancy factor, ranging from 1.2 to 1.5, is the total power consumption, is the heating coefficient of the equipment, is the lighting heat load.

[0046] Optionally, in step 3, when the data analysis module is used to analyze that at the current hour, the average power consumption of all cooling core areas is lower than the set power consumption threshold, and the temperature values ​​of multiple temperature monitoring modules are lower than the set temperature threshold, the computer selects a fixed power-saving cooling solution. The fixed power-saving cooling solution means that within the next hour, the main control chip controls the operation of the air-conditioning equipment based on the cooling capacity generated in step 3, and at the same time, multiple outlets of the multi-way solenoid valve are opened, and multiple adjustable air outlets evenly distribute the cooling capacity;

[0047] When the usage data analyzed by the data analysis module shows that at the current hour, the power consumption of a single cooling core area is higher than 1.5 times the set power consumption threshold, and the power consumption of other cooling core areas is lower than 0.5 times the set power consumption threshold, and the temperature values ​​of multiple temperature monitoring modules are lower than the set temperature threshold, the computer selects a power-saving cooling solution for key areas, and the main control chip controls the action of the air-conditioning equipment based on the cooling capacity generated in step 3, and controls the action of multiple solenoid valves at the same time, so that the adjustable air outlet above the corresponding cooling core area is opened, and other adjustable air outlets are closed;

[0048] When multiple temperature monitoring modules detect that the temperature of a single cooling core area exceeds the set temperature threshold, the computer selects a temporary power-saving cooling solution, and the main control chip controls the operation of the air-conditioning equipment based on the cooling capacity generated in step 3, and controls the operation of multiple solenoid valves to open the adjustable air outlet above the corresponding cooling core area and close the other adjustable air outlets.

[0049] Optionally, when the computer selects a temporary power saving and cooling solution, every 10 minutes, the main control chip controls the multi-way solenoid valves to open the multi-way outlets for 5 minutes, and then restores the power saving and cooling solution to its initial state.

[0050] By adopting the above technical solution, the temperature of other cooling core areas can be prevented from exceeding the limit due to long-term targeted cooling. Every 10 minutes, the main control chip controls the operation of multiple solenoid valves to open multiple outlets for 5 minutes before restoring the initial state of the power-saving cooling solution. At this time, the alarm module should also be used to notify the staff to pay attention to the cause of the abnormally high temperature to avoid the risk of increased energy consumption and unstable facility operation caused by long-term continuous operation.

[0051] In summary, the present invention includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0052] The present invention can provide a system and method for generating a power saving plan for IDC computer room facilities based on usage data. The IDC computer room facility usage data collector can collect power consumption data of multiple power-using facilities in the IDC computer room in real time and continuously. The usage data analysis module divides the power-using facilities in the IDC computer room into multiple cooling core areas based on the average power consumption value based on the previous historical usage data.

[0053] The air outlet position adjustment unit can dissipate heat in multiple cooling core areas in a more targeted manner, and its heat dissipation effect is better than the conventional heat dissipation solution based on the structure of the computer room;

[0054] At the same time, the data analysis module also uses historical usage data analysis to obtain the average power consumption and total power consumption of multiple cooling core areas at each hour. The average power consumption can be used as a basis for whether to focus on cooling the key cooling core areas during this time period. The IDC room cooling controller adopts the corresponding power-saving cooling solution to perform targeted heat dissipation, thereby effectively cooling multiple cooling core areas under the same cooling capacity to avoid local heat accumulation;

[0055] It achieves uniform heat dissipation for all cooling core areas under the premise of the same air-conditioning cooling capacity, reduces ineffective energy consumption caused by stack heat, improves the energy utilization efficiency of physical servers, saves electricity, and ensures the stable operation of IDC computer room facilities.

[0064] An air outlet position adjustment unit 4 is provided on the top of the IDC room, and the cold air outlet of the air conditioning device 3 is connected to the cold air inlet of the air outlet position adjustment unit 4. The air outlet position adjustment unit 4 is provided with a plurality of adjustable air outlets 44, and the plurality of adjustable air outlets 44 are located above the physical center positions of the plurality of cooling core areas 101;

[0065] The multiple temperature monitoring modules 5 respectively monitor the temperatures at the physical center positions of the multiple cooling core areas 101;

[0066] The IDC room cooling controller 6 is respectively connected to the usage data analysis module 2 and the multiple temperature monitoring modules 5 in communication. The IDC room cooling controller 6 is provided with a fixed power saving and cooling solution, a key area power saving and cooling solution, and a temporary power saving and cooling solution;

[0067] The IDC room cooling controller 6 generates a power-saving cooling scheme based on the analysis results of the data analysis module 2 and the temperature monitoring results of multiple temperature monitoring modules 5, and controls the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment 3 and the execution action of the air outlet position adjustment unit 4 based on the power-saving cooling scheme.

[0068] The IDC computer room facility usage data collector 1 can be a multi-channel data collector, which can collect power consumption data of multiple power facilities 100 in the IDC computer room in real time and continuously. The data analysis module 2 exchanges power consumption data with the IDC computer room facility usage data collector 1, and divides the power facilities 100 in the IDC computer room into regions based on the average power consumption based on the previous historical usage data. The historical usage data here refers to the historical usage data under the current equipment hardware layout and load. Based on the historical usage data, the IDC computer room can be divided into multiple cooling core areas 101. In fact, the areas corresponding to the multiple cooling core areas 101 are generally key equipment such as the processor area, the memory area, and the switch area.

[0069] The power consumption of the above equipment cannot actually be reduced. The only way to reduce the heat generation is to optimize the cooling solution of the IDC room, thereby achieving the control goals of power saving and stable operation.

[0070] The air outlet position adjustment unit 4 is configured such that the multiple adjustable air outlets 44 of the air outlet position adjustment unit 4 are located above the physical center of the multiple cooling core areas 101, so that the multiple cooling core areas 101 can be cooled more specifically, and the cooling effect is better than the conventional cooling solution based on the computer room structure.

[0071] At the same time, the usage data analysis module 2 also obtains the average power consumption and total power consumption of multiple cooling core areas 101 at each hour based on the historical usage data analysis;

[0072] For example, the estimation of the power consumption values ​​of key devices such as CPU and memory in the cooling core area 101 can be achieved based on the following steps:

[0073] For the CPU, power consumption is estimated based on the CPU's TDP (thermal design power) and actual operating frequency and core usage.

[0074] Memory power consumption: estimated based on the power consumption specifications and read and write frequencies of the memory (hard disk, memory).

[0075] A power consumption model is established, using a linear model where the power consumption is proportional to the load.

[0076] The CPU power consumption is calculated using the following formula: ;

[0077] in is the CPU power consumption, is the CPU thermal design power, is the actual operating frequency, is the maximum operating frequency, is the core utilization.

[0078] Memory power consumption conversion: The power consumption conversion uses the following formula: ;

[0080] By estimating the power consumption of key devices in the cooling core area 101, the average power consumption and the total power consumption in the area can be calculated;

[0081] The total power consumption value can be used to adjust the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment 3, and the average power consumption value can be used as a basis for whether to focus on cooling the key cooling core area 101 in this time period. The historical usage data can be fed back that at this time point, the power consumption of a certain cooling core area 101 is high, while that of other areas is low. If the IDC room cooling controller 6 adopts a fixed cooling solution, heat will accumulate in the area with high power consumption, while other areas will be overheated, resulting in excessive local heat generation and increased power consumption, and no effective cooling can be obtained, and the stability of equipment operation cannot be guaranteed. At this time, the IDC room cooling controller 6 adopts a key area power-saving cooling solution to perform targeted heat dissipation, thereby effectively cooling the key cooling core area 101 under the same cooling capacity to avoid local heat accumulation;

[0082] It achieves uniform heat dissipation for all cooling core areas under the premise of the same air-conditioning cooling capacity, reduces ineffective energy consumption caused by stack heat, improves the energy utilization efficiency of physical servers, saves electricity, and ensures the stable operation of IDC computer room facilities.

[0083] The usage data analysis module 2 includes a usage data storage 21 and a data analysis chip 22 . The usage data storage 21 is communicatively connected to the data output end of the IDC room facility usage data collector 1 , and the data analysis chip 22 is communicatively connected to the usage data storage 21 .

[0084] The air outlet position adjustment unit 4 includes an integrated block 41, a multi-way solenoid valve 42, a multi-way air duct 43 and a plurality of adjustable air outlets 44. The integrated block 41 is provided with a cold air input port and a plurality of cold air outlets. The cold air output port of the air-conditioning equipment 3 is connected with the cold air input port of the integrated block 41. The plurality of cold air outlets are connected with the multi-way inlets of the multi-way solenoid valve 42. The multi-way outlets of the multi-way solenoid valve 42 are respectively connected with the inlets of the plurality of adjustable air outlets 44. The plurality of adjustable air outlets 44 are respectively detachably installed above the physical center positions of the plurality of cooling core areas 101, with the air outlets facing downward.

[0085] The multiple outlets of the multi-way solenoid valve 42 can be quickly switched, thereby realizing the automatic adjustment of the power-saving cooling scheme corresponding to the cooling core area 101 by flexibly switching the multiple outlets of the multi-way solenoid valve 42 without changing the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment 3. The power consumption of the multi-way solenoid valve 42 is negligible for the electrical facilities of the IDC room.

[0086] The IDC room cooling controller 6 includes a power-saving cooling scheme memory 61 and a computer 62. The power-saving cooling scheme memory 61 stores control instructions based on fixed power-saving cooling schemes, key area power-saving cooling schemes and temporary power-saving cooling schemes. The computer 62 is respectively communicated with the usage data analysis module 2 and multiple temperature monitoring modules 5. The power-saving cooling scheme memory 61 stores fixed power-saving cooling schemes, key area power-saving cooling schemes and temporary power-saving cooling schemes.

[0087] The IDC room cooling controller 6 also includes a main control chip 63, which is in communication with the computer 62 and controls the execution actions of the air conditioning device 3 and the multi-way solenoid valve 42 respectively based on the control instruction set corresponding to the generated power-saving cooling solution.

[0088] The computer 62 can form a corresponding power-saving and cooling plan for each hour based on the data from the usage data analysis module 2 and multiple temperature monitoring modules 5, and generate a control instruction set for the main control chip 63. The main control chip 63 controls the execution actions of the air-conditioning equipment 3 and the multi-way solenoid valve 42 respectively according to the control instruction set, thereby realizing the automatic switching of the power-saving and cooling plan.

[0089] The temperature monitoring module 5 is a temperature sensor.

[0090] The method for generating a power saving plan for an IDC computer room facility based on usage data uses a power saving plan generating system for an IDC computer room facility based on usage data to control the temperature of a target IDC computer room, including the following steps:

[0091] Step 1, the IDC room facility uses a data collector 1 to collect power consumption data of multiple power-consuming facilities 100 in the IDC room;

[0092] Step 2, using the data analysis module 2 to exchange power consumption data with the IDC room facility usage data collector 1, based on the previous historical usage data, the power facilities 100 in the IDC room are divided into regions based on the average power consumption, and multiple cooling core areas 101 are obtained, and a data analysis cycle is set, and based on the usage data of the previous data analysis cycle, the average power consumption and total power consumption of multiple cooling core areas 101 at each hour are obtained;

[0093] Step 3, the computer 62 interacts with the data analysis module 2 to obtain the average power consumption and total power consumption of multiple cooling core areas 101 at each hour, establishes a correlation model between the total power consumption and the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment 3, obtains the cooling capacity of the air-conditioning equipment 3 based on the correlation model, and selects a corresponding power-saving cooling scheme from the fixed power-saving cooling scheme, the key area power-saving cooling scheme, and the temporary power-saving cooling scheme based on the average power consumption of multiple cooling core areas 101 and the temperature values ​​of multiple temperature monitoring modules 5;

[0094] In step 4, the main control chip 63 controls the execution action of the air-conditioning device 3 based on the cooling capacity generated in step 3, and controls the execution action of the multi-way solenoid valve 42 accordingly based on the generated power-saving and cooling scheme.

[0095] In step 3, the cooling capacity is calculated using the following formula:

[0096] ;

[0097] in is the cooling capacity, is the total heat load, is the energy efficiency ratio of the air conditioner;

[0098] The calculation formula is:

[0099] ;

[0100] in is the redundancy factor, ranging from 1.2 to 1.5, is the total power consumption, is the heating coefficient of the equipment, is the lighting heat load.

[0101] The following is a sample code for calculating cooling capacity:

[0102] # Define parameters

[0103] P_total =1000 # Assume total power consumption is 1000 kW

[0104] η_heat =0.8 # Equipment heating coefficient

[0105] Q_lighting = 30 # Lighting heat load, assumed to be 30 kW

[0106] COP=3 # Air conditioning energy efficiency ratio, assumed to be 3

[0107] =1.3 # Redundancy coefficient, assumed to be 1.3

[0108] # Calculate heat load

[0109]

[0110] # Calculate cooling

[0111]

[0112] # Output cooling capacity

[0113] print(f"Required cooling capacity: {Q_cooling} kW");

[0114] In step 3, when the data analysis module 2 is used to analyze the current hour, the average power consumption of all cooling core areas 101 is lower than the set power consumption threshold, and the temperature values ​​of multiple temperature monitoring modules 5 are lower than the set temperature threshold, the computer 62 selects a fixed power saving and cooling scheme. The fixed power saving and cooling scheme means that within the next hour, the main control chip 63 controls the air conditioning equipment 3 to operate based on the cooling capacity generated in step 3, and at the same time, the multiple outlets of the multi-way solenoid valve 42 are all opened, and the multiple adjustable air outlets 44 evenly distribute the cooling capacity;

[0115] When the usage data analysis module 2 analyzes the usage data and shows that at the current hour, there is a single cooling core area 101 whose power consumption is higher than 1.5 times the set power consumption threshold, and the power consumption of other cooling core areas 101 is lower than 0.5 times the set power consumption threshold, and the temperature values ​​of multiple temperature monitoring modules 5 are lower than the set temperature threshold, the computer 62 selects the key area power saving and cooling scheme, and the main control chip 63 controls the air conditioning equipment 3 to operate based on the cooling capacity generated in step 3, and controls the multi-way solenoid valve 42 to operate, so that the adjustable air outlet 44 above the corresponding cooling core area 101 is opened, and the other adjustable air outlets 44 are closed;

[0116] When multiple temperature monitoring modules 5 detect that the temperature of a single cooling core area 101 exceeds the set temperature threshold, the computer 62 selects a temporary power-saving cooling solution, and the main control chip 63 controls the operation of the air-conditioning equipment 3 based on the cooling capacity generated in step 3, and at the same time controls the operation of the multi-way solenoid valve 42, so that the adjustable air outlet 44 above the corresponding cooling core area 101 is opened, and the other adjustable air outlets 44 are closed.

[0117] When the computer 62 selects a temporary power saving and cooling solution, every 10 minutes, the main control chip 63 controls the multi-way solenoid valve 42 to open the multi-way outlets for 5 minutes, and then restores the power saving and cooling solution to its initial state.

[0118] In order to avoid excessive temperature rise in other cooling core areas 101 due to long-term targeted cooling, the main control chip 63 needs to control the multi-way solenoid valve 42 to open the multi-way outlets for 5 minutes every 10 minutes, and then restore the initial state of the power-saving cooling scheme. At this time, an alarm should also be sounded through the alarm module to notify the staff to pay attention to the cause of the abnormally high temperature to avoid the risk of increased energy consumption and unstable facility operation caused by long-term continuous cooling.

[0119] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
