Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooling device technology, and in particular to an energy-saving cooling control device for use in communication equipment rooms. Background Technology

[0002] As the core hub of digital infrastructure, communication equipment rooms face a sharp contradiction between the continuous high heat generated by the high-density operation of equipment and the energy efficiency constraints under the dual-carbon policy. Cooling systems account for a significant portion of the total energy consumption of communication equipment rooms. Traditional mechanical cooling solutions not only increase the PUE value but also result in high costs for precision air conditioning, raising concerns about operational economics. Existing mainstream technologies have significant bottlenecks: while hot and cold aisle isolation can reduce cooling waste, the enclosed structure poses fire hazards, and over-reliance on precision air conditioning can lead to delayed fault detection; natural cooling technology is significantly limited by geographical location, with limited effective utilization time throughout the year in high humidity or high temperature areas, and there are risks of air pollution and condensation; although liquid cooling technology has become a new direction due to its cooling efficiency far exceeding that of air, the complexity of the system and the cost of modification restrict its large-scale application.

The side of the fresh air unit 23 is connected to the side of the communication equipment room 1. The fresh air unit 23 is connected between the air inlet pipe 21 and the air outlet pipe 22. The end of the air outlet pipe 22 away from the fresh air unit 23 passes through the side wall of the communication equipment room 1 and is connected to the main air duct 31.

[0051] In the above optional embodiments, it should be noted that the side of the fresh air unit 23 is connected to the side of the communication equipment room 1 by screw connection or snap-fit ​​joint.

[0052] Optional, such as Figures 1 to 9As shown, the fresh air unit 23 includes a housing 231, a first fan 232, a filter assembly, a silencer 235, and a second fan 236.

[0055] The beneficial effects of the above optional embodiments are as follows: When the communication equipment room 1 needs cooling, the first fan 232 draws in outdoor air from the air inlet duct 21. The air first enters the filter assembly composed of the first filter screen 233, the second filter screen 234, and the third filter screen 237. The three layers of filters sequentially perform gradient purification of the air, which can effectively intercept dust, particulate matter, and impurities in the outdoor air, preventing pollutants from entering the equipment room and affecting equipment operation. The filtered clean air then enters the silencer 235 to ensure that the operation of the fresh air fan 23 will not cause acoustic interference to the stable operation of the equipment in the equipment room. Driven by the second fan 236, the treated air is sent into the machine room through the air outlet duct 22 to exchange heat with the hot air in the machine room, thereby removing the heat generated by the equipment operation and achieving a cooling effect. In addition, the heat dissipation grille 24 on the side of the housing 231 can help dissipate the heat generated by the operation of the fresh air unit 23 itself, and prevent the equipment from affecting its working efficiency due to heat accumulation. The entire process, through the orderly drive of the first fan 232 and the second fan 236, the purification guarantee of multi-stage filtration, the noise reduction treatment of the silencer 235, and the auxiliary heat dissipation of the heat dissipation grille 24, forms a complete air handling cycle.
