Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of interdisciplinary technology of offshore wind power and seabed data centers, specifically to a collaborative system and optimization method for offshore wind power and seabed data centers. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of marine engineering technology, marine exploration and development are gradually shifting from shallow to deep seas. Seafloor data centers, which can provide space for various circuit and electrical components, are a promising area for future seafloor resource development. The key factors influencing the cost and functionality of seafloor data centers are energy consumption and heat dissipation efficiency.

[0003] On the one hand, subsea data centers are generally powered by mains electricity. For example, the data center system disclosed in existing technologies CN114123477A and CN118748400A converts the mains power into the target power for the data warehouse of the data center through a power supply module, and uses a diesel generator as a backup power source to achieve uninterrupted power supply to the data center. Furthermore, it can be combined with energy storage devices to assist in temporary power supply, ultimately achieving the effect of reducing energy consumption. However, the cost of mains electricity is still high, and mains electricity is generally not entirely made from clean energy, which leads to insufficient environmental friendliness. To address this issue, existing technology US20240089322A1 discloses an underwater data center system and energy storage, which uses offshore wind power generation devices for power supply, solving the technical problem of energy supply. However, existing technologies cannot solve how to ensure the continuous and stable heat dissipation of the heat dissipation unit under the power supply of clean energy such as offshore wind power, and ensure the stable operation of the subsea data center.

[0004] On the other hand, seabed data centers inevitably generate a large amount of heat during data storage. If this heat cannot be dissipated in time, it will damage the valuable circuit components of the data center. To solve the heat dissipation problem of seabed data centers, the most common approach is to seal the data center in a chamber and use pumps to circulate water in the pipes to cool the equipment. For example, the seabed data center disclosed in existing technology CN117082830A uses pumps to form a circulation and exchange heat with the refrigerant at the heat dissipation end. However, the power supply for these heat dissipation units also generates considerable energy consumption. In addition, the dual-loop cooling system for seabed data centers in shallow sea areas disclosed in existing technology CN119603938A directly draws seawater for heat dissipation and uses filters to prevent pipe blockage. However, existing filters still have the problem of low filtration efficiency and affect heat dissipation effect. Moreover, the heat dissipation methods in existing technologies are relatively simple and the heat dissipation efficiency is insufficient.

[0005] In summary, existing technologies lack marine data center systems that collaboratively address energy consumption and heat dissipation efficiency. Therefore, it is of particular importance to invent a collaborative system for offshore wind power and seabed data centers, as well as a heat dissipation optimization device, that enables the use of clean energy and efficient heat dissipation on the seabed. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a collaborative system and optimization method for offshore wind power and submarine data centers. It comprehensively utilizes the heat dissipation energy structure of offshore wind power and diesel power generation to overcome the problems of existing technologies. Through improvements such as water cooling, heat dissipation fins, and heat pipes, the system can significantly improve heat dissipation efficiency, has low manufacturing costs, and good applicability. It can solve the problems of insufficient heat dissipation energy, uncleanliness, and low heat dissipation efficiency, and greatly save manpower and material resources.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A collaborative system for offshore wind power and subsea data center includes a wind power generation unit, a diesel power generation unit, an energy storage unit, a subsea data center, and a heat dissipation unit. The subsea data center includes a data container. The wind power generation unit collects offshore wind power and transmits it to the energy storage unit. The diesel power generation unit generates electricity in emergencies and transmits it to the energy storage unit. The energy storage unit includes an energy storage device and a power transmission device. The energy storage device stores the electrical energy converted by the wind power generation unit and the diesel power generation unit. The heat dissipation unit is installed inside the subsea data center and is connected to the data container. The power transmission device transmits the electrical energy stored in the energy storage device to the heat dissipation unit to drive the heat dissipation unit to cool the data container.

[0009] Furthermore, the wind power generation unit includes a floating offshore wind turbine; and / or, the diesel power generation unit includes a diesel generator mounted on a floating platform.

[0010] Furthermore, the data container has a shell, and the heat dissipation unit includes a water inlet pipe, a drain pipe, an infusion pump, a connecting pipe, a heat conduction pipe, and heat dissipation fins. One side of the water inlet pipe is connected to seawater, and the other side of the water inlet pipe is sequentially connected to the connecting pipe and the drain pipe. The infusion pump is disposed between the water inlet pipe and the connecting pipe. The connecting pipe is disposed inside the shell, and multiple heat dissipation fins are disposed on the outer wall of the connecting pipe. The multiple heat dissipation fins are arranged in a circumferential array with the connecting pipe as the center. Multiple heat conduction pipes are welded to the inner and outer walls of the shell. Each heat conduction pipe passes through the two side walls of the shell and remains connected. Refrigerant is disposed inside the heat conduction pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, the multiple heat pipes are arranged in a circumferential array with the connecting pipe as the center. The outer shell of the heat pipe is made of metallic copper, and the inner wall of the heat pipe is a sintered powdered core.

[0012] Furthermore, the heat dissipation fin material is metallic copper; and / or, the refrigerant is liquid ammonia; and / or, the surface of the housing is coated with a graphene heat dissipation film.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a filtration mechanism, which is located on the side of the inlet pipe that is connected to the seawater. The filtration mechanism includes a front cover, a filter tank, and a filter conduit. One end of the filter tank is provided with an inlet, and the front cover is located at the inlet of the filter tank. The other end of the filter tank is provided with an outlet, which is connected to the inlet pipe. The front cover is connected to one end of the filter conduit, and the other end of the filter conduit is a closed structure. The filter conduit is located inside the filter tank and is a tubular structure with fine annular slits.

[0014] Furthermore, both the front cover and the filter conduit are detachable structures.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a support frame, which is disposed between the filter water tank and the water inlet pipe.

[0016] Furthermore, the data container is arranged on the seabed near the land by a support structure, which includes a support base placed on the seabed and support columns installed on the support base, with the shell mounted on the support columns.

[0017] Furthermore, this invention also proposes an optimization method for a collaborative system of offshore wind power and subsea data centers, specifically including the following steps:

[0018] S1: The wind power generation unit collects offshore wind power and transmits it to the energy storage device of the energy storage unit, which then converts the offshore wind power into stable electrical energy.

[0019] S2: Based on the heat dissipation requirements of the data cabin, the power transmission device adjusts the output of the electrical energy stored in the energy storage device and controls the power of the infusion pump in the heat dissipation unit. The infusion pump controls the flow rate of seawater into the data cabin.

[0020] S3: Under the action of the infusion pump, seawater undergoes primary filtration through the front cover of the filtration mechanism, then undergoes secondary filtration through the filtration conduit, and finally enters the filtration tank.

[0021] S4: Seawater in the filter tank enters the connecting pipe through the inlet pipe, and the seawater exchanges heat with the heat generated in the data cabin through the heat dissipation fins.

[0022] S5: The seawater that has undergone heat exchange is discharged from the heat dissipation unit through the drain pipe;

[0023] In emergency situations, the diesel generator unit generates electricity and transmits it to the energy storage unit to ensure a stable power supply.

[0024] The refrigerant in the heat pipes inside the shell will always exchange heat with the heat inside the data container. Then the refrigerant flows to the heat pipes outside the shell to exchange heat with the seawater. After exchanging heat, the refrigerant flows back to the heat pipes inside the shell to circulate.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0026] (1) This invention converts offshore wind power into electrical energy and maintains the power supply to the heat dissipation unit through a wind power generation unit, an energy storage unit and a heat dissipation unit. On the one hand, the energy storage unit can convert unstable offshore wind power into stable electrical energy, realizing a stable supply of clean energy. On the other hand, the electrical energy supplied to the energy storage unit through the wind power generation unit is directly used to supply the heat dissipation unit connected to the seabed data center, which can ensure the stable and continuous heat dissipation of the heat dissipation unit. In case of emergency, the diesel generator unit is used as a backup power source. In this way, the energy storage unit always has enough electrical energy to ensure the stable operation of the heat dissipation unit, realizing double insurance for the power supply of the heat dissipation unit, ensuring the stable operation of the heat dissipation unit, and thus ensuring the stable and normal operation of the seabed data center.

[0027] (2) This invention proposes a heat dissipation unit structure with multiple heat dissipation methods. First, by setting up an infusion pump, water can be pumped using electrical energy, and the heat dissipation rate can be adjusted by controlling the water flow speed. Second, the cooling mechanism realizes the exchange of heat between seawater and the data container by setting a connecting pipe with heat dissipation fins inside the shell of the data container. Third, the cooling mechanism also realizes the exchange of heat between seawater and the data container outside the shell by setting a heat conduction pipe outside the shell of the data container. That is, this invention proposes a highly efficient heat dissipation structure that realizes both internal and external heat exchange of seawater in the data container. Moreover, not only does the power supplied by offshore wind power conversion realize the energy supply for the infusion pump and realize the heat exchange of seawater, but the evaporation cooling of the refrigerant in the heat conduction pipe can also realize a heat dissipation method without the need for power supply. Therefore, even in emergency situations, the minimum heat dissipation requirements of the seabed data center can still be guaranteed.

[0028] (3) The present invention also proposes a filtration mechanism. First, the larger impurities in the seawater drawn by the infusion pump are initially filtered through the front cover. Then, the finer impurities in the seawater are filtered a second time through the tubular structure of the filter conduit with fine annular slits inside the filter tank. This ensures that the seawater entering the filter tank contains fewer impurities and will not clog the pump body and pipes used for heat dissipation. Furthermore, the impurities accumulated in the filter conduit can be cleaned through a detachable design. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Please see Figures 1-6 This invention provides a technical solution: a collaborative system for offshore wind power and subsea data center, comprising a wind power generation unit 17, a diesel power generation unit 18, an energy storage unit 20, a subsea data center, and a heat dissipation unit 2. The subsea data center includes a data container 21. The wind power generation unit 17 collects offshore wind power and transmits it to the energy storage unit 20. The diesel power generation unit 18 generates electricity in emergency situations and transmits it to the energy storage unit 20. The energy storage unit 20 includes an energy storage device and a power transmission device. The energy storage device stores the electrical energy converted by the wind power generation unit 17 and the diesel power generation unit 18. The heat dissipation unit 2 is installed inside the subsea data center and is connected to the data container 21. The power transmission device transmits the electrical energy stored in the energy storage device to the heat dissipation unit 2 to drive the heat dissipation unit 2 to cool the data container 21.

[0038] This invention utilizes a wind power generation unit, an energy storage unit, and a heat dissipation unit to convert offshore wind power into electrical energy and maintain a power supply to the heat dissipation unit. On one hand, the energy storage unit converts offshore wind power into stable electrical energy, achieving a stable supply of clean energy. On the other hand, the electrical energy supplied to the energy storage unit by the wind power generation unit is directly used to supply the heat dissipation unit connected to the subsea data center, ensuring stable and continuous heat dissipation. In emergency situations, a diesel generator unit serves as a backup power source. This ensures that the energy storage unit always has enough electrical energy to guarantee the stable operation of the heat dissipation unit, achieving double insurance for the power supply of the heat dissipation unit, guaranteeing its stable operation, and thus ensuring the stable and normal operation of the subsea data center.

[0039] Furthermore, the wind power generation unit 17 includes a floating offshore wind turbine; the diesel power generation unit 18 includes a diesel generator, which is mounted on a floating platform 19.

[0040] To further improve the heat dissipation performance of the offshore wind power and subsea data center collaborative system, this invention also proposes a specific structural configuration for a heat dissipation unit integrating multiple heat dissipation methods. Specifically, the data container 21 has a shell 1 ( Figure 3-4To facilitate the demonstration of the heat dissipation unit's structural arrangement, only the two sides of the housing are shown (the upper part of the housing used to surround the connecting pipe 10 is not shown in the figure). The heat dissipation unit 2 includes a water inlet pipe 7, a drain pipe 8, an infusion pump 9, a connecting pipe 10, a heat conduction pipe 11, and heat dissipation fins 12. One side of the water inlet pipe 7 is connected to seawater, and the other side of the water inlet pipe 7 is connected to the connecting pipe 10 and the drain pipe 8 in sequence. The infusion pump 9 is located between the water inlet pipe 7 and the connecting pipe 10. The connecting pipe 10 is located inside the housing 1. Multiple heat dissipation fins 12 are provided on the outer wall of the connecting pipe 10. The multiple heat dissipation fins 12 are arranged in a circumferential array with the connecting pipe 10 as the center, and the heat dissipation fins 12 are made of copper, a metal with good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance. Multiple heat-conducting pipes 11 are welded to the inner and outer walls of the shell 1. Each heat-conducting pipe 11 passes through both sides of the shell 1 and remains connected. The heat-conducting pipe 11 contains a refrigerant, which is liquid ammonia. When the liquid ammonia in the heat-conducting pipe 11 inside the shell 1 absorbs heat from the inside of the data container 21, it evaporates into gas. The gas then flows to the heat-conducting pipe 11 outside the shell 1. At this time, the gas encounters seawater and cools down again into liquid, flowing back into the heat-conducting pipe 11 inside the shell 1. This cycle repeats continuously, achieving rapid heat conduction and dissipation.

[0041] First, the infusion pump allows for electrically controlled water pumping, and the heat dissipation rate can be adjusted by controlling the water flow speed. Second, the cooling mechanism, through connecting pipes with heat dissipation fins installed inside the data container's shell, enables heat exchange between the seawater and the data container. Third, the cooling mechanism, through heat-conducting pipes installed outside the data container's shell, also enables heat exchange between the seawater and the data container. Therefore, this invention proposes a highly efficient heat dissipation structure that simultaneously achieves internal and external heat exchange within the data container. Furthermore, not only does the infusion pump receive power from offshore wind power conversion, facilitating seawater heat exchange, but the evaporative cooling of the refrigerant within the heat-conducting pipes also enables heat dissipation without the need for electricity. Therefore, even in emergency situations, the minimum heat dissipation requirements of the subsea data center can be guaranteed.

[0042] Furthermore, multiple heat pipes 11 are arranged in a circumferential array around the connecting pipe 10. The outer shell of the heat pipe 11 is made of copper, and the inner wall of the heat pipe 11 is a sintered powder core. It has a rapid heat conduction capability, which can realize efficient and rapid heat exchange between the data cabin 21 and the low-temperature seawater.

[0043] Furthermore, the surface of the housing 1 is coated with a graphene heat dissipation film 13, which can be used to further accelerate heat dissipation, improve heat dissipation efficiency, and save energy.

[0044] To further ensure the heat dissipation performance of the offshore wind power and subsea data center collaborative system, the system also includes a filtration mechanism 3. The filtration mechanism 3 is located on the side of the inlet pipe 7 that connects to seawater. The filtration mechanism 3 includes a front cover 4, a filter tank 5, and a filter conduit 6. One end of the filter tank 5 has an inlet, and the front cover 4 is located at the inlet. The other end of the filter tank 5 has an outlet, which connects to the inlet pipe 7. The front cover 4 is used to cool the system when the infusion pump 9 draws seawater for heat dissipation. Larger impurities in the seawater undergo initial filtration. The front cover 4 is connected to one end of the filter conduit 6, and the other end of the filter conduit 6 is a closed structure. The filter conduit 6 is located inside the filter tank 5 and is a tubular structure with fine annular slits. The seawater that has undergone initial filtration through the front cover 4 enters the filter conduit 6 and then undergoes secondary filtration through the fine annular slits to remove even finer impurities. These impurities accumulate inside the filter conduit 6, ensuring that the seawater entering the filter tank 5 contains fewer impurities and does not clog the pump and pipes used for heat dissipation.

[0045] Furthermore, both the front cover 4 and the filter duct 6 are detachable structures. When too many impurities accumulate, they can be disassembled, repaired, and replaced by an underwater robot or by manual underwater operation.

[0046] Furthermore, it may also include a support frame 14, which is disposed between the filter water tank 5 and the water inlet pipe 7 to support the filter water tank 5 and ensure a stable connection between the water inlet pipe 7 and the filter water tank 5.

[0047] Furthermore, the data container 21 is arranged on the seabed 22 adjacent to the land 23 by a support structure. The support structure includes a support base 15 placed on the seabed 22 and a support column 16 provided on the support base 15. The shell 1 is installed on the support column 16.

[0048] Furthermore, this invention also proposes an optimization method for a collaborative system of offshore wind power and subsea data centers, specifically including the following steps:

[0049] S1: The wind power generation unit collects offshore wind power and transmits it to the energy storage device of the energy storage unit, which then converts the offshore wind power into stable electrical energy.

[0050] S2: Based on the heat dissipation requirements of the data cabin, the power transmission device adjusts the output of the electrical energy stored in the energy storage device and controls the power of the infusion pump in the heat dissipation unit. The infusion pump controls the flow rate of seawater into the data cabin.

[0051] S3: Under the action of the infusion pump, seawater undergoes primary filtration through the front cover of the filtration mechanism, then undergoes secondary filtration through the filtration conduit, and finally enters the filtration tank.

[0052] S4: Seawater in the filter tank enters the connecting pipe through the inlet pipe, and the seawater exchanges heat with the heat generated in the data cabin through the heat dissipation fins.

[0053] S5: The seawater that has undergone heat exchange is discharged from the heat dissipation unit through the drain pipe;

[0054] In emergency situations, the diesel generator unit generates electricity and transmits it to the energy storage unit to ensure a stable power supply.

[0055] The refrigerant in the heat pipes inside the shell will always exchange heat with the heat inside the data container. Then the refrigerant flows to the heat pipes outside the shell to exchange heat with the seawater. After exchanging heat, the refrigerant flows back to the heat pipes inside the shell to circulate, ensuring the minimum heat dissipation requirements of the seabed container.
