TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of air conditioner power supply, and more particularly to a super capacitor standby power air conditioner system for a data center. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, digitization is widely integrated into various aspects of social production and life. With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, the power density of IT equipment is also rapidly increasing. IT servers have the characteristics of high heat density and heat sensitivity. The safety of the air conditioning system of a data center, which is the infrastructure of digital society development, is extremely important. The air conditioning system needs to operate uninterruptedly throughout the year. Once a fault occurs, it will cause huge economic losses. Therefore, there is a high requirement for the safety of the air conditioning system of a data center.
[0003] The power supply system of a data center usually includes double power supply, uninterruptible power supply system and diesel generator set. The air conditioning equipment and electronic information equipment are respectively powered by different uninterruptible power supply systems. The commonly used uninterruptible power supply system at present is UPS and battery pack. Although this mode effectively solves the emergency problem of power grid outage, the UPS is always online mode. During the process of power input and output, energy conversion through the rectifier and inverter of the UPS is caused, which causes certain energy loss. Long-time operation will cause overheating of the equipment, shorten the service life of the equipment and increase the safety hazard. Compared with other types of power supply systems, the price of this system is also high, and the volume is also large. It has high requirements for the environment and needs to build an independent storage space. The commonly used lithium battery, lead-acid battery and other batteries belong to chemical power supply. Although they have the characteristics of high energy density, they have low power density. For large power equipment such as air conditioners, the system capacity is large, the charging and discharging speed is slow, the service life is short, and the system safety requirement is high.
[0004] The super capacitor belongs to physical power supply and has the advantages of good energy storage timeliness, high power density, fast charging speed, long cycle life, safety and reliability, green environmental protection and other advantages. The super capacitor has the advantages of super-fast high-frequency charging and discharging capacity, service life of 1.5 million times / 10 years and wide temperature adaptation range of-40+65 DEG C. And the backup power supply mode is adopted. The super capacitor power supply is connected between the power grid and the load. When the power grid is powered, the air conditioning equipment is directly powered by the power grid, reducing the energy loss of the rectifier and inverter. When the power grid is powered off, the super capacitor power supply quickly switches to power the air conditioning equipment. In particular, with the rapid development of distributed air conditioning systems in data centers, the super capacitor is one of the important ways to solve the emergency power supply of data center air conditioning systems. Therefore, in order to solve the current urgent problems of data center air conditioning emergency power supply and new construction mode, to develop a super capacitor standby power air conditioner system with fast, super long life and low environmental requirements, safety and reliability is an important technical way to promote the development of data centers.
