[0033] Data center power supplies are systems that provide power to servers, storage devices, network equipment, and so on. Their core objective is to ensure the continuity and stability of the power supply, preventing data loss or service disruptions due to power outages. A schematic diagram of a centralized power supply system used in a data center can be seen as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the external power supply used to power the centralized power supply unit is connected to the input circuit breakers QF11, QF21, QF31 and QF41 via the incoming circuit breaker 1QF and the corresponding busbars. Circuit breakers QF11, QF21, QF31 and QF41 are connected to one end of the corresponding power supplies 01, 02, 03 and 04, respectively. The other ends of power supplies 01, 02, 03 and 04 output circuit breakers QF12, QF22, QF32 and QF42, respectively, and then power the downstream loads via the corresponding busbars.
[0034] Typically, data centers use server racks to house electrical or electronic equipment, providing physical protection, heat dissipation, and power support; these racks are the core components of a data center. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the circuit breaker and power supply equipment are arranged on the left and right sides. The copper busbars / cables between the circuit breaker and the power supply are connected across the cabinet, which is difficult, long, and has poor compatibility.
[0035] Therefore, according to embodiments of this disclosure, a centralized power supply device for a data center is provided. Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a centralized power supply unit for a data center according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the centralized power supply unit includes a cabinet 400, which contains: a busbar compartment 410 for arranging busbars, which are used to connect to an external input power source and supply power to the downstream load of the centralized power supply; a circuit breaker compartment 420 located below the busbar compartment 410 for arranging the circuit breakers of the centralized power supply unit, which are used to control the power supply to the downstream load of the centralized power supply unit through a target power source in the centralized power supply unit; and a power supply compartment 430 located below the circuit breaker compartment 420 for arranging the target power source.
[0036] Typically, circuit breakers and power supply equipment are arranged side-by-side, with copper busbars / cables connecting the circuit breakers and power supplies across cabinets, which is difficult, lengthy, and has poor compatibility. However, according to the embodiments of this disclosure, by arranging the circuit breaker compartment and the power supply compartment vertically, such as... Figure 4The vertical arrangement shown solves the problem of copper busbar / cable cross-cabinet connection caused by the horizontal arrangement of circuit breakers and power equipment, significantly reducing the length of connecting copper busbars / cables and improving the power density of the power supply unit.
[0037] Specifically, according to an embodiment of this disclosure, the circuit breaker compartment and the power supply compartment are arranged adjacent to each other in the vertical direction, such that the circuit breaker and the corresponding target power supply are connected by cables within the cabinet.
[0038] This compact, vertically adjacent layout changes the traditional centralized power supply system's architecture where circuit breaker cabinets and power supply cabinets are separated on the left and right. By placing the circuit breaker compartment directly above the power supply compartment, the connecting cables or copper busbars between the two can be connected with the shortest straight-line distance, reducing cable material costs, decreasing loop resistance, and significantly reducing voltage drop and heat loss on the line, thereby improving the energy conversion efficiency of the entire power system.
[0039] Furthermore, since all critical electrical connections are completed in a closed loop within a single cabinet, a high degree of modular integration can be achieved. A single cabinet can be prefabricated, transported, and installed on-site as an independent power unit, significantly shortening the deployment cycle of data center server rooms. This design ensures complete power distribution and supply functions are integrated within a single cabinet space of only about 600mm wide, effectively solving the problems of large footprint and low space utilization in existing solutions, and providing core technical support for high-density deployment of data centers.
[0040] According to embodiments of this disclosure, the target power source in the power supply compartment includes at least one of an uninterruptible power supply and high-voltage direct current transmission, wherein the centralized power supply unit is configured to switch the power supply mode to the downstream load by changing the device type of the target power source in the power supply compartment.
[0041] A UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is a system that connects a battery (usually a lead-acid maintenance-free battery) to a main unit, and converts direct current (DC) to AC power through the main unit's inverter and other circuit modules. It mainly consists of a battery bank, rectifier, inverter, static switch, isolation transformer, and voltage regulator. Current UPS systems generally do not have internal circuit breakers; they only provide load switches.
[0042] HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) is a high-voltage direct current transmission technology that utilizes the advantages of stable direct current, such as the absence of inductive and capacitive reactance and synchronization issues. It employs high-power, long-distance direct current transmission, with the transmission process being direct current. Its core equipment includes converter transformers, converters, smoothing reactors, and DC filters.
[0043] In centralized power supply systems, the target power supply, including UPS equipment and / or HVDC equipment, requires input and output protection through electrical devices such as circuit breakers. The circuit breaker compartment is often located on both sides of the UPS equipment, resulting in a long power module and a large footprint. Furthermore, the significant difference in size between the UPS equipment and the switch cabinet also reduces the aesthetic appeal of the entire power module. The embodiments of this disclosure solve the problem of the large footprint of the original power module by arranging the power supply compartment (including the UPS) and the circuit breaker compartment vertically, saving up to 30% of the floor space. Moreover, it solves the problem of copper busbar / cable cross-cabinet connections caused by the horizontal arrangement of the circuit breaker and power equipment, significantly reducing the length of the connecting copper busbar / cable. The current arrangement also significantly reduces the number of connection points in the copper busbar scheme, reducing the risk of temperature rise during operation.
[0044] According to embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cabinet 400 also includes a power cable compartment 440. The power cable compartment 440 is located behind the circuit breaker compartment 420 and is used to arrange cables that are connected to the busbar and the target power supply via the circuit breaker.
[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, the power cable compartment 440 is located behind the circuit breaker compartment 420 in the depth direction. Through the above embodiment, the spatial coupling optimization of various settings and their wiring within the cabinet is achieved, which can effectively shorten the physical wiring distance between the circuit breaker and the busbar and between the circuit breaker and the power equipment below, thereby avoiding cables turning back on the side of the cabinet or across cabinets, and significantly reducing power loss and heat generation caused by cable resistance.
[0046] In terms of spatial layout, the power cable compartment 440 is located behind the circuit breaker compartment 420 in the depth direction. This combination of vertical stacking and deep layering allows the busbar compartment, circuit breaker compartment, and power supply compartment to form a compact electrical connection loop on the vertical axis. Specifically, the input current in the busbar compartment flows downward into the input terminal of the circuit breaker compartment, and is transmitted to the power supply equipment in the bottom power supply compartment via the short-circuit cable located in the power cable compartment 440. The processed current then flows upward back to the output terminal of the circuit breaker compartment, and finally connects to the output busbar of the busbar compartment through the power cable compartment 440. This "front-end operation, rear-end wiring" design not only ensures that maintenance personnel can safely operate the parallel-arranged circuit breakers at the front of the cabinet, but also uses the redundant space in the cabinet depth to solve the heat dissipation and wiring conflicts in high-density layouts. Compared with the traditional side-by-side arrangement, it improves the power density per unit area while ensuring the neatness of the internal wiring and the reliability of electrical isolation.
[0047] In some embodiments, the partitions between the compartments within the cabinet can be grounded metal plates or insulating plates. Furthermore, the internal space of each compartment can be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0048] According to an embodiment of this disclosure, the power cable compartment is located behind the circuit breaker compartment and the busbar compartment, wherein the space occupied by the power cable compartment behind the busbar compartment is smaller than the space occupied by the power cable compartment behind the circuit breaker compartment.
[0049] This asymmetrical spatial allocation structure is based on the differentiated design of the physical characteristics and wiring requirements of each functional module within the device, in order to optimize space utilization and improve electrical safety. Because multiple power input and output switches are centrally located within the circuit breaker compartment, and each circuit breaker needs to be connected to the power supply compartment and busbar compartment via large-section copper busbars or cables, the wiring density behind the circuit breaker compartment is extremely high. By expanding the corresponding cable compartment space in this area, the necessary bending radius and heat dissipation gap can be provided for the dense power cables, effectively reducing the fire risk caused by excessive cable compression or localized overheating.
[0050] In some embodiments, the power cable compartment may be located behind the circuit breaker compartment, the busbar compartment, and the power supply compartment, wherein the space occupied by the power cable compartment behind the circuit breaker compartment may be greater than the space occupied by the other rear compartments.
[0051] Similar to the above, this design, while maintaining the overall depth of the cabinet, solves the problem of low power density in centralized power supply units through refined layering of the rear space. This allows the unit to save 30% of floor space while still ensuring clear internal cabling logic and preventing interference. Furthermore, it minimizes the physical length of the electrical connection path between the busbar and the circuit breaker in both the vertical and depth directions, significantly reducing the cost of expensive connection materials and improving the overall energy conversion efficiency of the unit.
[0052] According to an embodiment of this disclosure, the circuit breakers in the circuit breaker compartment include two parallel-arranged input circuit breakers and an output circuit breaker, which serve as the input switch and output switch of the target power supply, respectively. The input circuit breaker is used to control the power supply from the external input power supply to the target power supply in the centralized power supply device, and the output circuit breaker is used to control the output to the downstream load of the centralized power supply device.
[0053] This parallel arrangement significantly improves operational convenience and space utilization within the cabinet. By arranging input and output circuit breakers in pairs horizontally within the same compartment, operators can intuitively and quickly perform switching operations on specific power modules from the same height level on the front of the cabinet, greatly reducing the risk of misoperation. Furthermore, this arrangement, combined with the power supply compartment design below, ensures that each power supply and its corresponding control switch are physically aligned at a specific height, achieving the shortest electrical path connection in the vertical direction within a single cabinet. This not only effectively solves the problems of high difficulty and long length of copper busbar connections across cabinets caused by the lateral arrangement of circuit breakers and power equipment in existing technologies, but also directly reduces the risk of temperature rise and line losses during system operation by reducing the number of connection points.
[0054] According to embodiments of this disclosure, the centralized power supply device includes a plurality of cabinets arranged in parallel.
[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, multiple cabinets 400 can be arranged sequentially in a horizontal direction, wherein each cabinet 400 may include a busbar compartment 410, a circuit breaker compartment 420, a power supply compartment 430, and a power cable compartment 440 as described above. This enables a high-density data center deployment.
[0056] According to embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 6 As shown, a method for controlling a centralized power supply unit for a data center is also provided. Figure 6 shows a flowchart of a centralized power supply unit control method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The centralized power supply unit includes at least two power sources. Figure 6 As shown, method 600 includes: determining the device type of the power supply in the centralized power supply unit for supplying power to a downstream load, wherein the current power supply is any one of the at least two power supplies (step 610); and determining the operating parameters of the centralized power supply unit based on the determined device type, so as to operate the centralized power supply unit based on the operating parameters (step 620).
[0057] Through the embodiments of this disclosure, high flexibility and intelligent management of centralized power supply units are achieved by automatically identifying power supply equipment types and matching parameters. This allows for automatic adjustment of operating parameters based on the actual equipment installed in the power supply compartment, enabling seamless replacement and iterative upgrades of power supply equipment from different manufacturers and using different technologies.
[0058] According to some embodiments, the at least two power sources include an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and a high-voltage direct current transmission (HVDC). The operating parameters are matched to the power sources.
[0059] According to some embodiments, the operating parameters include at least one of the following: the voltage, power, and current of the target power supply.
[0060] According to some embodiments, the method further includes: in response to recognizing a switch in the device type of the power supply used to power a back-end load, re-determining the device type of the current power supply used to power a back-end load in the centralized power supply unit, so as to determine the operating parameters of the centralized power supply based on the re-determined device type.
[0061] For example, the operating parameters of a centralized power supply unit include, but are not limited to, current, voltage, and output power. When it is determined that a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is installed in the current power supply compartment, the operating parameters matching its power rating will be obtained based on the UPS's electrical characteristics, such as retrieving the set parameters or calling them from a preset database, for example, calculating its rated current under full load. If the power supply is replaced with HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) based on task requirements, its operating parameters will be recalculated and updated according to the characteristics of HVDC after identification to adapt to the current distribution in a DC power supply environment. In this way, without changing the physical connection structure, precise control and operational assurance of different physical power supply entities are achieved through adjusting the operating parameters.
[0062] According to embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 7 As shown, an apparatus 700 for controlling a centralized power supply unit for a data center is also provided. The centralized power supply unit includes at least two power supplies. The apparatus 700 includes: a determining unit 710 configured to determine the device type of the power supply in the centralized power supply unit used to supply power to back-end loads, wherein the current power supply is any one of the at least two power supplies; and a setting unit 720 configured to determine operating parameters of the centralized power supply unit based on the determined device type, so as to operate the centralized power supply unit based on the operating parameters.
[0063] Here, the operation of each of the aforementioned units 710-720 of the device 700 for controlling the centralized power supply unit for the data center is similar to the operation of steps 610-620 described above, and will not be repeated here.
[0064] The collection, storage, use, processing, transmission, provision, and disclosure of any type of information, such as user personal information, in this technical solution comply with relevant laws and regulations and do not violate public order and good morals.
[0065] According to embodiments of this disclosure, an electronic device, a readable storage medium, and a computer program product are also provided.
