Description
Technical Field

[0002] With the rapid development of Internet information technology, the scale of data centers has expanded rapidly, and the computing performance of servers has been continuously improved. Traditional air-cooling technology has high energy consumption and limited heat dissipation capacity, and it is difficult to meet the heat dissipation requirements of high heat flux density CPU chips. In the immersion liquid cooling system, the liquid directly contacts the electronic components, which has the advantages of low heat transfer resistance and high heat dissipation efficiency. It has good application prospects in the field of electronic component heat dissipation. However, existing immersion liquid cooling cabinets usually cool the servers in the cabinet in a single and uniform manner. There may be a risk of thermal downtime due to sudden high loads in local server chips that cannot be efficiently cooled, and the cooling system energy waste caused by the difficulty in matching the coolant supply in different liquid cooling cabinets with the total heat dissipation requirements in the cabinet. In order to further improve the thermal safety of the liquid-cooled cabinet and reduce cooling energy consumption, the present invention designs an adaptive liquid supply and distribution cooling device for the liquid-cooled cabinet. The temperature of each server chip, the temperature in each server flow channel and the temperature of the cabinet liquid outlet are sensed by a temperature sensor, and the flow size of the liquid supply nozzle group, the size of the server flow channel and the flow size of the cabinet liquid inlet are changed, thereby realizing adaptive liquid supply and distribution of the liquid-cooled cabinet, eliminating local hot spots of the liquid-cooled cabinet in the server, keeping the server chip temperature within a safe range at all times, and reducing cooling energy consumption while improving the thermal safety of the liquid-cooled cabinet.

When it is monitored that the temperature of the chip in a certain server is too high, the flow size of the liquid supply nozzle group is increased. When it is monitored that the temperature in the server flow channel in a certain area is too high, the server flow channel size is reduced, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the server hotspot and enhancing the safety of the server.

When it is detected that the chip temperature in a certain server is too high, the flow rate of the liquid supply nozzle group is increased. When it is detected that the temperature in the server flow channel in a certain area is too high, the server flow channel size is reduced, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the server hotspot and enhancing the safety of the server. When it is detected that the temperature of the liquid outlet of the liquid cooling cabinet is low, the liquid inlet flow rate of the liquid cooling cabinet is reduced to reduce the energy consumption of the cooling system.
[0033] (2) The structure of the present invention cleverly utilizes the thermal expansion and contraction properties of an object, making the overall structure simpler and eliminating the need for complex electronic mechanical devices to control it, thereby reducing the cost of the entire structure.
