Description

Technical Field

[0002] A load bank is an electrical load device that typically applies power to a power source and converts or dissipates power. Its function is to simulate a real-world load on a power source, using its energy output to test, support, or protect the power supply. Because real-world loads are distributed, unpredictable, and random, load banks need to provide a wide range of operating characteristics and controllable capacity. Load banks are often used in conjunction with generator sets, battery systems, UPS systems, inverters, etc., as test units to test these devices.

[0003] Currently, rack-mounted resistive load cells all have their output power adjusted manually, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the load box uses resistive heating tubes with different power ratings configured in its internal circuits. Each circuit is equipped with a circuit breaker or contactor or other switching device for switching control, thereby enabling the operation or deactivation of the resistive heating tube and thus adjusting the power of the entire load box.

[0004] Currently, rack-mounted resistive load banks have the following shortcomings: different power combinations can be achieved by switching on and off heating devices (including electric heating tubes and PTC heaters) with different power. Although the initial power can be adjusted and selected, the accuracy is poor. The power adjustment range of most resistive load banks is in the 500W range, which cannot achieve more precise power setting. Utility Model Content

[0017] This utility model also provides a rack-mounted load cell, including the aforementioned load simulation circuit, and also includes a housing, wherein the load simulation circuit is located inside the housing.

[0018] The advantages provided by this utility model are:

[0019] (1) In the power module of the load simulation circuit of this utility model, the heating tube and the transistor are connected in series. The transistor is connected to the main control circuit through the IGBT drive circuit. The duty cycle adjustment range of the transistor is from 0 to 1. Taking the rated power of the heating tube as 2kW as an example, the output power adjustment range of the heating tube is from 0 to 2kW.

[0020] (2) This utility model arranges a temperature sensing element near the heating tube.

[0021] (3) By setting up a temperature sampling circuit, this utility model can collect the temperature inside the load box and perform temperature compensation on the actual working resistance of the heating tube.

[0022] (4) This utility model sets up an air volume setting and display module for inputting the set air volume value. The main control circuit inputs a control signal to the fan speed control circuit according to the signal duty cycle to realize air volume adjustment. This can solve the problem in the prior art that the fans are running at full speed, resulting in an unstable temperature difference between the inlet and outlet air of the equipment, and cannot simulate the working conditions of actual computer room servers and other equipment.

[0023] (5) By setting up an indicator circuit and an alarm circuit, this utility model can easily indicate the operating status of the system. When the system power supply is normal and the system is working normally, the indicator circuit will work. When the system has low voltage or excessive power deviation, the alarm circuit will work, thereby improving the safety of the load box operation. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model are described clearly and completely below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0044] Explanation of relevant terms:

[0045] Rack-mount load cell: A load cell that meets the external dimensions and structural requirements of a standard 19-inch rack mount.

[0046] Constant power: refers to constant output power, that is, the electrical energy consumed by the equipment remains constant despite changes in external conditions.

[0047] Duty cycle: refers to the proportion of the time the circuit is powered on relative to the total time within a pulse cycle.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a load simulation circuit, including a rectifier circuit 10, a shunt 20, a power module 30, a fan module 40, and a control and drive circuit 50. The power module 30 includes at least one heating element and at least one transistor. (See reference...) Figure 5 The control and drive circuit 50 includes a main control circuit 51, a voltage signal processing circuit 52, a current signal processing circuit 53, a power setting and display module 54, and at least one IGBT drive circuit 55. The input terminal of the rectifier circuit 10 is connected to an external power supply. The negative output terminal of the rectifier circuit 10 is connected in series with the shunt 20 and then connected to the emitter of the transistor. The positive output terminal of the rectifier circuit 10 is connected in series with the heating element and then connected to the collector of the transistor. The base of the transistor is connected to the main control circuit 51 through the IGBT drive circuit 55. The positive output terminal of the rectifier circuit 10 is connected to the main control circuit 51 through the voltage signal processing circuit 52. The two ends of the shunt 20 are connected to the main control circuit 51 through the current signal processing circuit 53. The fan module 40 is connected between the rectifier circuit 10 and the main control circuit 50. The power setting and display module 54 is connected to the main control circuit 51.

[0049] Existing load analog circuits adjust power by switching on a resistor, which limits the accuracy of power adjustment to the minimum power that can be applied to a single resistor. This is constrained by the number of branches in the load, and most resistive load boxes on the market have a power adjustment range of 500W or 1000W, with very few at 100W. However, they still suffer from a large power range and cannot automatically adjust the power according to changes in the input power supply.

[0050] In this utility model, the power module of the load simulation circuit has a heating element connected in series with a transistor. The transistor is connected to the main control circuit through an IGBT drive circuit. The duty cycle of the transistor can be adjusted from 0 to 1. Taking the rated power of the heating element as 2kW as an example, the output power of the heating element can be adjusted from 0 to 2kW. According to the load size of the object under test (such as a data center), multiple heating elements are connected in parallel in the power module. When three heating elements are connected in parallel and each heating element has a rated power of 2kW, the load simulation circuit can achieve power adjustment from 0 to 6kW, solving the problem of large power range in existing load boxes and realizing high-precision power adjustment of the load box.

[0051] The power setting and display module 54 of this invention is used to input the set power value. The main control circuit 51 collects the voltage and current of the external power supply and calculates the rated power value. Based on the set power value and the rated power value, it calculates the signal duty cycle and outputs a PWM wave. This PWM wave is then used by the IGBT drive circuit 55 to control the transistor's on / off state, dynamically adjusting the actual output power of the load simulation circuit to maintain consistency with the set power value. The signal duty cycle is calculated as: Set power value / Rated power value. By adjusting the ratio of the load's on-time to the total on-time, the output power of the load simulation circuit is made equal to the set power. For example, when the required output power of the load simulation circuit is 100% of the rated power, the set power equals the rated power, and the ratio is 1, meaning the load simulation circuit's resistor is always on. In this case, the output power of the load simulation circuit equals the rated power. When the output power of the load simulation circuit is required to be 50% of the rated power, the power is set to 50% of the rated power, and the proportion is 0.5. That is, the resistance of the load simulation circuit is only 50% applied per unit time. At this time, the output power of the load simulation circuit is equal to 50% of the rated power. The other proportions are similar. This utility model adjusts the power by adjusting the proportion, i.e., the time parameter. The main control circuit has high precision in time control compared to... Figure 1 This invention achieves different power combinations by switching heating devices with different power levels, and its power regulation accuracy is very high.

[0052] The main control circuit 51 collects the current from the external power supply to fine-tune the signal duty cycle. When the deviation between the rated power value and the set power value exceeds a set threshold, the main control circuit 51 calculates the current power value based on the collected current and fine-tunes the signal duty cycle according to the magnitude of the current power value and the rated power value. If the current power value is greater than the rated power value, the signal duty cycle is fine-tuned to decrease; if the current power value is less than the rated power value, the signal duty cycle is fine-tuned to increase, until the deviation between the rated power value and the set power value is within the set threshold range. This invention considers that the heating element will slightly change with temperature and usage time, thus affecting power accuracy. By collecting the current signal, calculating the current system power, comparing it with the set power, and then fine-tuning the duty cycle, it achieves closed-loop control of the output power, further improving the accuracy of power regulation in rack-mounted load cells.

[0053] The input terminal of rectifier circuit 10 is connected to an external power supply to rectify the external input voltage and output it. It supports AC220V and DC270V input, with a minimum power of 8kW. A bridge rectifier module with a heat sink is selected, model MDQ100A.

[0054] The input terminal of shunt 20 is connected to the output terminal of rectifier circuit 10, and the output terminal of shunt 20 is connected to the emitter of transistor. The shunt is connected to main control circuit 51 through current signal processing circuit 53 to collect current signals in the line and input them to main control circuit 51. The shunt is a 30A / 75mV high-precision shunt, model FL-2.

[0055] Continue reading Figure 2 and Figure 3 The power module 30 also includes at least one DC contactor and at least one temperature sensing element. The control and drive circuit 50 also includes a relay control circuit 56. The DC contactor is connected between the positive output of the rectifier circuit 10 and the heating element. The control port of the DC contactor is connected to the main control circuit 51 through the relay control circuit 56. The temperature sensing element is close to the heating element to measure the temperature of the heating element and inputs the temperature signal into the main control circuit 51 through the relay control circuit 56. When the temperature of the heating element measured by the temperature sensing element exceeds the set threshold, which may cause the heating element to burn out, the main control circuit 51 controls the relay control circuit 56 to output a drive signal, controls the DC contactor to open, disconnects the circuit where the heating element is located, and stops working, thus protecting the heating element.

[0056] The number of heating elements in the power module is determined based on the load of the object under test (such as a data center). When multiple heating elements are selected, they are connected in parallel, and each branch of the heating element is connected to a DC contactor and a transistor. Each heating element has a temperature sensing element nearby. In this embodiment, three heating elements are connected in parallel: the first heating element, the second heating element, and the third heating element. Each heating element is a dry-burning electric heating element with a rated power of 2kW. One end of the first DC contactor, one end of the second DC contactor, and one end of the third DC contactor are connected together and then connected to the output terminal of the rectifier circuit. The other end of the first DC contactor is connected in series with the first heating element and then connected to the collector of the first transistor. The other end of the second DC contactor is connected in series with the second heating element and then connected to the collector of the second transistor. The other end of the third DC contactor is connected in series with the third heating element and then connected to the collector of the third transistor. The bases of the first, second, and third transistors are respectively connected to the input terminals of the IGBT drive circuit. The output terminal of the IGBT drive circuit is connected to the main control circuit. The control ports of the first, second, and third DC contactors are all connected to the output terminals of the relay control circuit. The input terminal of the control circuit is connected to the main control circuit. By controlling the conduction time of the first, second, and third transistors, the load bank can be adjusted from 0 to 6 kW.

The thirty-first, thirty-second, and thirty-third pins of the microcontroller are connected to the IGBT drive circuit 55, and the forty-fourth pin is connected to the output of the power setting and display module 54. The main control chip has an AD port and multiple IO output ports, has high integration, and can easily acquire analog and digital signals of the system and output PWM signals and control signals.

[0077] Working principle: such as Figure 18 As shown, the modules and components are rationally arranged within the load cell to form a rack-mount load cell. The overall dimensions of the chassis are 430mm (width) × 177.8mm (height) × 550mm (depth), accommodating 19-inch rack mounting. The chassis is made of sheet metal and finished in black. Multiple load cells can be arranged within the same rack, and the power and airflow of each load cell can be set to improve the overall power consumption of the rack.

[0078] This utility model rack-mount load cell can be used for testing and verification in data centers, aging tests of UPS power supplies, and full-load tests of power distribution cabinets. Here, we take the testing and verification in a data center as an example to introduce the working principle of this utility model rack-mount load cell. Before testing, the load cell is installed in a cabinet in the data center. Then, the power cord of the load cell is inserted into the PDU socket of the cabinet to connect the load cell to the power supply system of the data center.

[0079] During the test, the power and airflow values ​​were set according to the pre-compiled test specifications, and the load cell was started. The set power and airflow values ​​were input to the main control chip of the main control circuit. The main control chip of this invention uses a microcontroller. The microcontroller collects the voltage and current signals of the external power supply based on the set power and airflow values, and calculates the rated power value of the load cell. The set power value is divided by the rated power value to obtain the signal duty cycle. The microcontroller outputs a PWM wave based on the signal duty cycle value, which controls the conduction or cutoff of the transistor through the IGBT drive circuit, adjusting the ratio of the load input time to the total time, so that the output power of the load cell is equal to the set power value. This achieves dynamic adjustment of the actual output power of the load cell and keeps it consistent with the set power value. The load cell of this invention has the characteristic of consuming constant electrical energy and converting it all into heat.

[0080] Depending on the mode switch selection, the microcontroller identifies whether the input signal is DC or AC. When the input signal is DC, the mode switch selects DC, and after the microcontroller recognizes the signal, the system's rated power equals (voltage value * voltage value) / (loop resistance). When the system input is AC, the mode switch selects AC, and after the microcontroller recognizes the signal, the system's rated power equals (voltage value * voltage value) / (loop resistance * 2). The loop resistance is equal to the total resistance of multiple heating elements connected in parallel.

[0081] The rack-mount load cell uses sampling and control technology to automatically adjust the load cell power to a set power based on changes in the external input power, achieving closed-loop power control. Furthermore, by adjusting the fan speed, the air intake of the device is made equal to the set air volume value, thereby achieving automatic adjustment of the load cell power and air volume.

[0082] This utility model is used for testing and verification in data centers. As an electrical device, it is installed in the server rack in the data center and connected to the power supply system via cables. During the testing of the equipment and lines, it can effectively overcome the influence of changes in the voltage at the power source, maintain a constant output power, and ensure the smooth progress of the test. Furthermore, by adjusting the airflow, it can accurately match the airflow data of the server in the later stage, realize the accurate simulation of the test scenario, and ensure the accuracy and validity of the test data.
