Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of data center energy consumption, and in particular to a data center combined cooling and heating system and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, China's data centers have developed rapidly. The number of data center racks in the country has reached 3.2 million, and the number of data centers has exceeded 74,000, accounting for 23% of the world. While developing rapidly, the problem of high energy consumption in data centers has become prominent. From the perspective of energy consumption growth rate, the growth rate of power consumption of China's data centers has exceeded 12% for eight consecutive years, which is significantly higher than the growth rate of electricity consumption in the whole society.

[0003] For example, the announcement number is CN206310792U, and the name of the Chinese authorized patent is (A data center combined heat and cooling system), including: a solar absorption auxiliary cooling system, a liquid cooling heat dissipation system, a liquid cooling heat recovery auxiliary heating system and a control system; the control system is used to control the switching of the operating modes of the solar absorption auxiliary cooling system, the liquid cooling heat dissipation system and the liquid cooling heat recovery auxiliary heating system. The utility model utilizes the good complementarity between solar absorption refrigeration technology and liquid cooling technology, and utilizes the liquid cooling heat recovery auxiliary heating system to recover the liquid cooling heat dissipation to provide auxiliary heating for the solar air conditioning system, thereby overcoming the problem that the traditional solar air conditioning system requires auxiliary energy such as electricity and chemical energy for heating, thereby causing excessive economic costs. While saving energy in combined heat and cooling, it reduces the waste of heat discharged from the data center to the atmosphere, which is conducive to promoting the practical application of solar refrigeration technology and liquid cooling technology in data centers.

[0004] At the same time, in the more than 40 billion square meters of urban and rural buildings in my country, the fuel for heating is mainly coal and natural gas, and the annual carbon dioxide emissions are more than 2 billion tons. It has been in a state of high energy consumption, low efficiency and high cost for a long time. Therefore, energy saving in building heating has become the top priority of my country's energy conservation work. Compared with traditional building heating technology, the heat pump heating system emits the least carbon dioxide per unit of heat supply. Heat pump technology is the most effective way to achieve the dual carbon goals. At the same time, heat pumps are the key path to achieve the electrification of heating equipment.

[0005] The existing factors that affect the energy consumption of refrigeration systems include: heat generation of various equipment, heat transfer of building enclosure equipment, heat transfer of fresh air systems, solar radiation heat, system energy efficiency ratio, airflow organization, air conditioning operation time, etc., which can be summarized as equipment factors and environmental factors. In the context of the country's efforts to achieve the goals of carbon peak and carbon neutrality, the high energy consumption problem of data centers urgently needs better and more urgent solutions, and how to improve the operating efficiency of different types of heat pumps has become a difficult problem that needs to be solved in the industry.
