This growing demand has driven the development of more efficient cooling technologies, especially in key areas such as servers, supercomputers, electric vehicles, and 5G communication equipment.

[0003] Traditional air cooling technology relies on ambient air as a heat dissipation medium, and its efficiency is limited by the ambient temperature of the surrounding environment, and it is not sufficient to handle high heat output in compact or enclosed spaces.

This type of evaporative condenser has a high heat transfer coefficient and can achieve effective heat exchange under low temperature difference conditions, thereby significantly reducing energy consumption. Its structural design is compact and small in size, which effectively reduces heat loss, while reducing the demand for insulation materials and further optimizing overall energy efficiency. The plate-and-tube evaporative condenser is designed to be non-scaling and clogging and has a self-cleaning function, which reduces the need for regular cleaning and maintenance and reduces operating costs. The air-conditioning system has the characteristic of providing both cold air and cold water to the computer room of the intelligent computing center, minimizing the number of equipment while ensuring the low temperature requirements in the computer room.

[0028] (2) A surface cooler is provided at the air inlet of the direct evaporative cooling chiller I in the air conditioning system of the utility model. The air is first pre-cooled by the surface cooler and then enters the direct evaporative cooling chiller I. This design makes full use of cooling water to cool the fresh air, achieving energy saving and high efficiency. Compared with traditional refrigeration devices, the refrigeration device of the utility model can reduce energy consumption and further reduce the temperature of the cold water produced, which helps to reduce operating costs;

[0029] (3) The fan unit in the air conditioning system of the utility model can provide cold air and cold water for the intelligent computing center at the same time. When the ambient temperature is high, the compressor can be turned on to reduce the return air of the intelligent computing center to the required temperature; when the outdoor ambient temperature is low, the compressor can be turned off, and the cooling water in the water tank II and the filler II of the direct evaporative cooling chiller II are used for cooling.

Compared with traditional refrigeration devices, the refrigeration device of the utility model has higher heat exchange efficiency and lower energy consumption, which helps to reduce operating costs and improve the energy efficiency ratio of the equipment;

[0032] (6) The intelligent computing center computer room of the utility model air conditioning system adopts the lower floor to supply air and the upper roof grille to return air, which effectively replaces the indoor air. Due to the temperature difference, the indoor air refrigeration cycle can be spontaneously replaced under the action of density difference and temperature difference.

[0033] (7) The fresh air inlet of the air conditioning system of the utility model is on the same side of the unit. The fresh air from the air inlet on one side enters the compressor side to take away the heat of the condenser, and the fresh air from the fresh air inlet of the water machine unit on the other side enters the water machine side to produce cold water. The fresh air on both sides does not mix with each other, which greatly enhances the heat dissipation efficiency of the condenser and the efficiency of producing cold water on the water machine side.

[0061] In the direct expansion air-cooled / water-cooled composite air-conditioning system for liquid cooling of the intelligent computing center of the utility model, the evaporator and the compression refrigeration unit are arranged separately, so that the cooling effect is more significant.

[0062] The working principle of the direct expansion air-cooling / water-cooling composite air-conditioning system for liquid cooling of the intelligent computing center of the utility model is as follows:

[0063] The heat dissipation system of the utility model is divided into two modes according to the outdoor temperature:

[0064] (1) When the outdoor ambient temperature is low

[0065] exist Figure 1 In the fan unit 43 shown, when the compressor 9 stops running, the surface cooler Ⅰ7 and the wet film 4 can be used to cool the return air of the intelligent computing center room 45. When the pressure head of the heat exchange module 28 is insufficient, the fluorine pump 31 is turned on to provide power for the heat exchange module 28. Under the action of the fluorine pump 31, the refrigerant gas coming out of the heat exchange module 28 first enters the immersion liquid cooling cabinet 30 through the liquid cooling unit water supply pipe 35 to dissipate heat for the chip, and then flows back to the heat exchange module 28 through the liquid cooling unit drainage pipe 36 to complete the heat exchange, and the cycle is repeated continuously.

[0066] On the side of the water machine unit 44, the outside air passes through the fresh air inlet 13 of the water machine unit and is pre-cooled by the surface cooler II 14, and then enters the direct evaporative cooling chiller I 46 to produce cold water through the direct evaporative cooling principle. The produced cold water is pressurized and transported to the water distribution unit III 23 by the water pump III 20. The outside air leaves the direct evaporative cooling chiller I 46 and then enters the direct evaporative cooling chiller II 47 to produce cold water again and transports the cold water to the surface cooler I 7 and the heat exchange module 28 through the water pump IV 21. The outside air is finally discharged to the outside from the exhaust port II 26.

[0067] The airflow direction in the intelligent computing center room 45 is as follows Figure 1 In the intelligent computing center room 45, the airflow enters the intelligent computing center room 45 through the cold air channel 34 to exchange heat with the outer casing of the immersion liquid cooling cabinet 30 to take away the heat, and then transports it back to the fan unit 43 through the return air grille 33 and the fan V29, and repeats the cycle continuously.

[0068] (2) When the outdoor ambient temperature is high

[0069] exist Figure 1 In the fan unit 43 shown, when the compressor 9 is turned on, the surface cooler Ⅰ7, the wet film 4 and the evaporator 3 can be used to cool the return air of the intelligent computing center room 45. The fresh air entering the condenser 10 side through the fresh air inlet 8 flows through the condenser 10 to take away the heat of the condenser 10 and the hot air is discharged to the outside by the fan Ⅱ11 and the exhaust outlet Ⅰ12.

[0070] At the same time, when the pressure head of the refrigeration device is insufficient, the fluorine pump 31 is turned on to provide power for the device. Under the action of the fluorine pump 31, the refrigerant gas coming out of the heat exchange module 28 first enters the immersion liquid cooling cabinet 30 through the liquid cooling unit water supply pipe 35 to dissipate heat for the chip, and then flows back to the heat exchange module 28 through the liquid cooling unit drainage pipe 36 to complete the heat exchange, and the cycle is repeated continuously.

[0071] At the same time, the working process of the water machine unit 44 and the intelligent computing center room 45 is the same as when the outdoor ambient temperature is low, and cooling continues.

[0072] The utility model discloses a direct expansion air-cooling / water-cooling composite air-conditioning system for liquid cooling of the intelligent computing center, which minimizes energy consumption while ensuring the low temperature requirement in the computer room.

[0073] The direct expansion air-cooled / water-cooled composite air conditioning system for liquid cooling of the intelligent computing center of this utility model adopts a combination of liquid cooling and air cooling, aiming to utilize the high efficiency of liquid cooling and the economy of air cooling. This hybrid system can dynamically adjust the cooling strategy according to actual needs, for example, using air cooling under basic operating conditions and switching to liquid cooling under high load or high temperature conditions, thereby achieving the best balance between cost and efficiency.

[0074] Example 1
