[0016] Preferably, the data center further comprises an administration and auxiliary equipment container, in which at least one of a firefighting equipment, a low-voltage room, a central control room, and an office is provided.

[0017] With the above technical means, the IT device container and the air-cooling device container can be prefabricated in advance in the factory before the data center is built. That is, the server racks are assembled in the IT device container, and the air-cooling device is assembled in the air-cooling device container. When the data center is built, the above prefabricated IT device container and the air-cooling device container can be directly transported to the designated construction site, and the external air-cooling intake port of the air-cooling device container can be connected to the external IT exhaust port of the IT device container, the external air-cooling exhaust port of the air-cooling device container can be connected to the external IT intake port of the IT device container, and the IT cooling liquid inlet port and the IT cooling liquid outlet port can be connected to the corresponding cooling liquid supply device. The implementation of the IT device container and the air-cooling device container can be realized, so that the data center can be quickly and efficiently deployed and delivered, and the construction period can be shortened and the carbon dioxide emissions associated with the construction of the data center can be reduced.

[0018] In addition, in conventional technology, server racks and air-cooling devices (e.g., air conditioning cooling devices) are usually placed in a server room of a data center, and cooling is achieved by blowing air to the server racks using the air-cooling devices. However, when server racks and air-cooling devices are placed in the same space, the air-cooling devices occupy the installation space of the server racks, which reduces the installation density of the server racks and leads to a decrease in the number of server racks installed. There is a limit to the cooling effect of the air-cooling devices, and when the installation density of server racks increases and the number of server racks increases, the air-cooling devices cannot effectively cool the server racks. At this time, it becomes necessary to increase the power consumption of the air-cooling devices or increase the number of air-cooling devices, which leads to an increase in PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness).

[0019] In the present disclosure, first, the air-cooling device and the server racks are placed in different containers, i.e., the air-cooling device and the server racks are not stored in the same container, which prevents the air-cooling device from occupying the installation space of the server racks and allows more server racks to be placed in the IT device container, thereby achieving a high-density arrangement of the server racks.

[0020] Next, since the IT device container has not only an IT intake port and an IT exhaust port, but also an IT cooling liquid inlet port and an IT cooling liquid outlet port, liquid cooling and air cooling of the server rack can be achieved simultaneously in the process of cooling and dissipating heat from the server rack inside the IT device container.

[0021] Specifically, the low-temperature cooling liquid enters the cooling liquid inlet pipe from the IT cooling liquid inlet port and enters the server rack through the cooling liquid inlet pipe. After exchanging heat with the server in the server rack, the cooling liquid flows into the cooling liquid outlet pipe from the cooling liquid outlet of the server rack and flows out through the IT cooling liquid outlet port to carry the heat generated by the server to the outside of the IT device container. At the same time that the server is liquid-cooled by the cooling liquid, the air-cooling device in the air-cooling device container operates, and cold air flows into the IT device container from the air-cooling exhaust port of the air-cooling device container through the IT intake port of the IT device container. When the cold air passes through the server rack, it exchanges heat with the server rack and becomes hot air, and the hot air enters the duct, passes through the IT exhaust port and the air-cooling intake port in order, and flows back into the air-cooling device container. The hot air that flows back into the air-cooling device container is cooled by the air-cooling device, becomes cold air at a low temperature, and is blown again to the server rack to achieve air-cooling of the server. In this way, the cooling and heat dissipation of the server rack by both the above-mentioned air cooling and liquid cooling has higher cooling efficiency and better cooling effect, and more server racks can be placed in the IT device container, that is, a high-density server rack can be placed in the IT device container.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0026] Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for the purpose of explaining and interpreting the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0027] In this disclosure, unless stated to the contrary, "connected" means that corresponding devices may be directly or indirectly connected to each other, "butted" means that corresponding devices are directly connected to each other, "inside and outside" means inside or outside the contour of the corresponding structure or part, and "far and near" means far and near to the corresponding structure or part.

[0028] 1 to 15, in order to achieve the above object, the present disclosure provides a data center 1 including an IT device container 10 and an air-cooling device container 20. A server rack 11 is provided in the IT device container 10, and the IT device container 10 has an IT cooling liquid inlet port 12, an IT cooling liquid outlet port 13, an IT intake port 14, and an IT exhaust port 15. A cooling liquid inlet pipe 16 connecting the IT cooling liquid inlet port 12 and the cooling liquid inlet of the server rack 11, a cooling liquid outlet pipe 17 connecting the IT cooling liquid outlet port 13 and the cooling liquid outlet of the server rack 11, and a duct 180 connecting the IT exhaust port 15 and the exhaust port of the server rack 11 are provided in advance in the IT device container 10. The IT intake port 14 is connected to the inside of the IT device container 10, an air-cooling device 21 is provided in the air-cooling device container 20, the air-cooling device container 20 has an air-cooled intake port 22 and an air-cooled exhaust port 23, the air-cooled intake port 22 is butted against the IT exhaust port 15, and the air-cooled exhaust port 23 is butted against the IT intake port 14, and the air-cooling device 21 makes the temperature of the air flowing out from the air-cooled exhaust port 23 lower than the temperature of the air flowing in from the air-cooled intake port 22 in order to cool the air flowing in from the air-cooled intake port 22.

[0029] By using the above technical means, the IT device container 10 and the air-cooling device container 20 can be prefabricated in advance in a factory before the data center 1 is constructed. That is, the server racks 11 are accumulated in the IT device container 10, and the air-cooling device 21 is accumulated in the air-cooling device container 20. When constructing the data center 1, the above-mentioned prefabricated IT device container 10 and the air-cooling device container 20 can be directly transported to a designated construction site, the external air-cooled intake port 22 of the air-cooling device container 20 can be connected to the external IT exhaust port 15 of the IT device container 10, the external air-cooled exhaust port 23 of the air-cooling device container 20 can be connected to the external IT intake port 14 of the IT device container 10, and the IT cooling liquid inlet port 12 and the IT cooling liquid outlet port 13 can be connected to the corresponding cooling liquid supply device. This allows the implementation of the IT device container 10 and the air-cooling device container 20, which enables the data center 1 to be rapidly and efficiently deployed and delivered, thereby shortening the construction period and reducing the carbon dioxide emissions associated with the construction of the data center 1.

[0030] In addition, in conventional technology, server racks and air-cooling devices (e.g., air conditioning cooling devices) are usually placed in a server room of a data center, and cooling is achieved by blowing air to the server racks using the air-cooling devices. However, when server racks and air-cooling devices are placed in the same space, the air-cooling devices occupy the installation space of the server racks, which reduces the installation density of the server racks and leads to a decrease in the number of server racks installed. There is a limit to the cooling effect of the air-cooling devices, and when the installation density of server racks increases and the number of server racks increases, the air-cooling devices cannot effectively cool the server racks. At this time, it becomes necessary to increase the power consumption of the air-cooling devices or increase the number of air-cooling devices, which leads to an increase in PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness).

[0031] In the present disclosure, first, the air-cooling device 21 and the server rack 11 are placed in different containers, that is, the air-cooling device 21 and the server rack 11 are not accumulated in the same container, thereby preventing the air-cooling device 21 from occupying the installation space of the server rack 11, and making it possible to place more server racks 11 in the IT device container 10 and achieving a high-density arrangement of the server racks 11.

[0032] Next, since the IT device container 10 has not only an IT intake port 14 and an IT exhaust port 15, but also an IT cooling liquid inlet port 12 and an IT cooling liquid outlet port 13, liquid cooling and air cooling of the server rack 11 can be achieved simultaneously in the process of cooling and dissipating heat from the server rack 11 inside the IT device container 10.

[0033] Specifically, the low-temperature cooling liquid enters the cooling liquid inlet pipe 16 from the IT cooling liquid inlet port 12, and enters the server rack 11 through the cooling liquid inlet pipe 16. After exchanging heat with the server in the server rack 11, the cooling liquid flows into the cooling liquid outlet pipe 17 from the cooling liquid outlet of the server rack 11, and flows out through the IT cooling liquid outlet port 13, carrying the heat generated by the server to the outside of the IT device container 10. At the same time that the server is liquid-cooled by the cooling liquid, the air-cooling device 21 in the air-cooling device container 20 operates, and cold air flows into the IT device container 10 from the air-cooling exhaust port 23 of the air-cooling device container 20 through the IT intake port 14 of the IT device container 10. When the cold air passes through the server rack 11, it exchanges heat with the server rack 11 and becomes hot air, and the hot air enters 180, passes through the IT exhaust port 15 and the air-cooling intake port 22 in order, and flows back into the air-cooling device container 20. The hot air that has returned to the air-cooling device container 20 is cooled by the air-cooling device 21, becoming low-temperature cold air, which is then blown again onto the server racks 11 to achieve air-cooling of the servers. In this way, the cooling and heat dissipation of the server racks 11 by both the air cooling and liquid cooling described above has higher cooling efficiency and better cooling effect, and more server racks 11 can be placed in the IT device container 10, that is, server racks 11 can be placed at a higher density in the IT device container 10.

[0034] Here, the IT coolant inlet port 12 and the IT coolant outlet port 13 of the IT device container 10 may be connected to any coolant supplying device capable of providing low-temperature coolant. For example, the IT coolant inlet port 12 and the IT coolant outlet port 13 may be connected to a cooling tower, an air conditioning chiller, a cold water source, etc. In short, as long as low-temperature coolant can be provided, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to further reduce the cooling cost of the data center 1, the cooling liquid may be water, which is cheap, easy to replenish, and does not pollute the atmospheric environment in the process of heat exchange. Of course, the cooling liquid may be any other suitable cooling liquid (e.g., refrigerant). The present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0036] Preferably, in order to facilitate butting (i.e., direct connection) between the IT intake port 14 and the IT exhaust port 15 and the air-cooled intake port 22 and the air-cooled exhaust port 23 so as to improve the construction speed of the data center 1, the IT intake port 14 and the IT exhaust port 15 may be provided on the same side of the IT device container 10. The air-cooled intake port 22 and the air-cooled exhaust port 23 may also be provided on the same side of the air-cooling device container 20. In this way, it is possible to facilitate butting between the IT intake port 14 and the IT exhaust port 15 and the air-cooled intake port 22 and the air-cooled exhaust port 23.

[0037] The above air-cooling device 21 may be any air-cooling device capable of providing suitable cold air, for example, an air-conditioning cooling device. In an embodiment in which the air-cooling device is an air-conditioning cooling device, the air flowing in from the air-cooled intake port 22 may pass through an evaporator in the air-conditioning cooling device and exit from the air-cooled exhaust port 23. The low-temperature refrigerant in the evaporator may absorb the heat of the air flowing in from the air-cooled intake port 22 to lower the temperature of the air.

[0038] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figs. 1 to 4 and 7, the air-cooled equipment 21 may preferably include an air-liquid heat exchanger 210 and a fan 220. The air-cooled equipment container 20 has an air-cooled coolant inlet port 24 and an air-cooled coolant outlet port 25, and a heat exchange inlet pipe 26 connecting the air-cooled coolant inlet port 24 and the coolant inlet of the air-liquid heat exchanger 210, and a heat exchange outlet pipe 27 connecting the air-cooled coolant outlet port 25 and the coolant outlet of the air-liquid heat exchanger 210 are provided in advance in the air-cooled equipment container 20. The fan 220 is used to make the wind flowing in from the air-cooled intake port 22 pass through the air-liquid heat exchanger 210 and flow out from the air-cooled exhaust port 23. In the process of cooling the server rack 11, the coolant with a low temperature flows into the air-liquid heat exchanger 210. When the fan 220 is operated, the hot air flowing out from inside the IT device container 10 enters the air-cooled equipment container 20 through the air-cooled intake port 22 and is blown by the fan 220 to the air-liquid heat exchanger 210. Since the hot air exchanges heat with the cooling liquid in the air-liquid heat exchanger 210, the temperature of the hot air that absorbs the heat inside the IT device container 10 drops, and the air becomes low-temperature air, which is blown again from the air-cooled exhaust port 23 to the server racks 11 inside the IT device container 10, thereby realizing air cooling of the servers by continuing to cool the servers. The low-temperature cooling liquid that absorbs the heat from the servers becomes high-temperature cooling liquid and flows out from the air-cooled cooling liquid discharge port 25 of the air-cooled equipment container 20, realizing uninterrupted heat dissipation cooling of the servers.

[0039] Since the air-liquid heat exchanger 210, the fan 220, the heat exchange inlet pipe 26, and the heat exchange outlet pipe 27 are already assembled as the air-cooled equipment container 20 at the factory, there is no need to assemble the air-liquid heat exchanger 210, the fan 220, the heat exchange inlet pipe 26, and the heat exchange outlet pipe 27 at the construction site in the process of constructing the data center 1, and it is sufficient to connect the air-cooled coolant inlet port 24 and the air-cooled coolant outlet port 25 to a coolant supplying device (e.g., a cooling tower) for providing coolant to the air-liquid heat exchanger 210. This allows the data center 1 to be expanded flexibly and quickly.

[0040] Here, the present disclosure does not limit the coolant supply equipment connected to the air-cooled coolant inlet port 24 and the air-cooled coolant outlet port 25, as long as it is capable of providing low-temperature coolant to the air-liquid heat exchanger 210.

[0041] Preferably, the data center 1 may further include a heat dissipation device container 30, as shown in FIG. 8, which further improves the construction speed of the data center 1 in providing low-temperature cooling liquid to the air-liquid heat exchanger 210 and the server rack 11. A heat dissipation device 31 is provided in the heat dissipation device container 30, which has a heat dissipation cooling liquid inlet port 32 and a heat dissipation cooling liquid outlet port 33, and a heat dissipation pipe 34 is provided in advance in the heat dissipation device container 30 to connect the heat dissipation device 31, the heat dissipation cooling liquid inlet port 32, and the heat dissipation cooling liquid outlet port 33. The heat dissipation cooling liquid inlet port 32 is connected to the IT cooling liquid outlet port 13 and the air-cooled cooling liquid outlet port 25, and the heat dissipation cooling liquid outlet port 33 is connected to the IT cooling liquid inlet port 12 and the air-cooled cooling liquid inlet port 24. The heat dissipation device 31 is used to lower the temperature of the cooling liquid flowing out from the heat dissipation cooling liquid outlet port 33 to the temperature of the cooling liquid flowing in from the heat dissipation cooling liquid inlet port 32.

[0042] In this way, the high-temperature cooling liquid that has flowed through the server rack 11 and the high-temperature cooling liquid that flows out from the gas-liquid heat exchanger 210 enter the heat dissipation equipment 31 through the heat dissipation cooling liquid inlet port 32 of the heat dissipation equipment container 30, and the heat dissipation equipment 31 dissipates heat from the high-temperature cooling liquid to turn it into low-temperature cooling liquid, and then a portion of the low-temperature cooling liquid flows again into the server rack 11 through the heat dissipation cooling liquid outlet port 33 and the IT cooling liquid inlet port 12. The other portion of the low-temperature cooling liquid flows again into the gas-liquid heat exchanger 210 through the air-cooled cooling liquid inlet port 24 from the heat dissipation cooling liquid outlet port 33, thereby realizing uninterrupted cooling and heat dissipation of the server rack 11.

[0043] Since the heat dissipation equipment 31 is also built into the heat dissipation equipment container 30 during the manufacturing process at the factory, when the data center 1 is constructed, the heat dissipation equipment container 30 is directly transported to a designated construction site and directly connected to the IT device container 10 and the air-cooling device container 20. This allows for rapid deployment and delivery of the data center 1, shortens the construction period, and reduces the amount of carbon dioxide emissions associated with the construction of the data center 1.

[0044] The heat dissipation equipment 31 may be any equipment capable of lowering the coolant temperature and providing low-temperature coolant to the server racks 11 and the air-to-liquid heat exchanger 210. For example, the heat dissipation equipment 31 may include a cooling tower and / or a first air conditioning device 330.

[0045] In an embodiment in which the heat dissipation device 31 includes a cooling tower, the cooling tower may be an open cooling tower 310, a closed cooling tower 320, a natural ventilation cooling tower, a mechanical ventilation cooling tower, a mixed ventilation cooling tower, a wet cooling tower, a dry cooling tower, a dry-wet cooling tower, or the like. The present disclosure does not limit the specific type, number, size, shape, or the like of the cooling tower. A cooling tower is a device that releases absorbed heat into the atmosphere to lower the temperature of the cooling liquid. The cooling principle of the cooling tower is that when the cooling liquid contacts the airflow, cold heat exchange is performed, steam is generated, the steam is evaporated to remove heat, and evaporation heat dissipation, convection heat transfer, radiation heat transfer, and the like are achieved, thereby lowering the water temperature. In the case where a low-temperature cooling liquid is provided to the server rack 11 and the gas-liquid heat exchanger 210 by the cooling tower, the installation of the cooling tower contributes to reducing the total energy consumption of the data center, thereby lowering the PUE of the data center, and thus reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Furthermore, since the cooling temperature of the cooling tower is related to the wet bulb temperature of the environment in which the cooling tower is located, rather than the dry bulb temperature (i.e., the ambient temperature) of the environment in which the cooling tower is located, and the wet bulb temperature in most regions of the world can meet the requirements for the temperature of the cooling liquid flowing out of the cooling tower's cooling liquid outlet, the data center cooling system of the present disclosure can be less subject to the constraints of the local ambient temperature and can be applied to most regions of the world.

[0046] For an embodiment in which the heat dissipation device 31 includes a first air conditioning device 330, the first air conditioning device 330 may include a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and a heat exchanger that are sequentially connected in series. The coolant inlet and coolant outlet of the heat exchanger are connected to the heat dissipation coolant inlet port 32 and the heat dissipation coolant outlet port 33, respectively. In this way, the low-temperature refrigerant after throttling and decompression of the expansion valve flows into the heat exchanger, exchanges heat with the coolant in the heat exchanger, and absorbs heat from the coolant to lower the temperature. The coolant with the lowered temperature flows out from the heat dissipation coolant outlet port 33 and flows to the server rack 11 and the air-liquid heat exchanger 210.

[0047] It should be understood that in an embodiment in which the heat dissipation equipment 31 includes a cooling tower and / or a first air conditioning unit 330, depending on the current temperature or cooling needs of the server rack 11, the cold of the coolant flowing to the server rack 11 and the air-liquid heat exchanger 210 can be selected to be provided by the cooling tower, or the first air conditioning unit 330, or both the cooling tower and the first air conditioning unit 330 jointly.

[0048] In an embodiment in which the cooling tower is an open-type cooling tower 310, the data center 1 may preferably further include a hydraulic facility container 40. As shown in FIG. 9, a first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400, a first pump 401 and a second pump 402 are provided in the hydraulic equipment container 40, and the hydraulic equipment container 40 has a first hydraulic cooling liquid inlet port 41, a second hydraulic cooling liquid inlet port 42, a first hydraulic cooling liquid discharge port 43 and a second hydraulic cooling liquid discharge port 44. A first pipe 45 connecting the first cooling liquid inlet of the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 and the first hydraulic cooling liquid inlet port 41, a second pipe 46 connecting the first cooling liquid outlet of the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 and the first hydraulic cooling liquid discharge port 43, a third pipe 47 connecting the second cooling liquid inlet of the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 and the second hydraulic cooling liquid inlet port 42, and a fourth pipe 48 connecting the second cooling liquid outlet of the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 and the second hydraulic cooling liquid discharge port 44 are provided in advance in the hydraulic equipment container 40. The first hydraulic coolant inlet port 41 is connected to the heat dissipation coolant outlet port 33, the first hydraulic coolant outlet port 43 is connected to the heat dissipation coolant inlet port 32, the second hydraulic coolant inlet port 42 is abutted with the IT coolant outlet port 13 and the air-cooled coolant outlet port 25, and the second hydraulic coolant outlet port 44 is abutted with the IT coolant inlet port 12 and the air-cooled coolant inlet port 24. The first pump 401 is provided in the first pipe 45 and / or the second pipe 46, and the second pump 402 is provided in the third pipe 47 and / or the fourth pipe 48.

[0049] In the open-type cooling tower 310, during operation, the coolant is exposed to the external environment, which affects its cleanliness, so that the coolant with low cleanliness enters the server rack 11. The first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 is provided in the above-mentioned hydraulic equipment container 40. In this way, when the cooling tower is the open-type cooling tower 310, the low-temperature coolant flows from the heat-dissipating coolant discharge port 33 into the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 through the first hydraulic coolant inlet port 41, and flows back into the open-type cooling tower 310 through the first coolant outlet of the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 through the heat-dissipating coolant inlet port 32. At the same time, the high-temperature coolant flowing out from the coolant outlet of the server rack 11 and the coolant outlet of the air-liquid heat exchanger 210 flows into the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 through the IT coolant discharge port 13 and the air-cooled coolant discharge port 25, respectively, through the second hydraulic coolant inlet port 42. The high-temperature cooling liquid flowing into the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 exchanges heat with the low-temperature cooling liquid in the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400, and then flows from the second water-use cooling liquid discharge port 44 into the IT device container 10 through the IT cooling liquid inlet port 12 and into the air-cooling device container 20 through the air-cooling cooling liquid inlet port 24, respectively. The low-temperature cooling liquid flowing out of the open-type cooling tower 310 exchanges heat with the high-temperature cooling liquid, and then becomes high-temperature cooling liquid, which flows back to the open-type cooling tower 310 through the heat-dissipating cooling liquid inlet port 32 again, and releases heat to the atmosphere. In other words, by providing the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400, it is possible to prevent the low-purity cooling liquid flowing out of the open-type cooling tower 310 from directly flowing into the server rack 11 and the air-liquid heat exchanger 210, and to avoid any impact on the server rack 11 and the air-liquid heat exchanger 210.

[0050] During the above-mentioned circulating heat exchange, the first pump 401 provides a driving force to the flow of the cooling liquid between the open cooling tower 310 and the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400, so that the cooling liquid can circulate between the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 and the open cooling tower 310. The second pump 402 provides a driving force to the flow of the cooling liquid between the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400, the server rack 11, and the gas-liquid heat exchanger 210, so that the cooling liquid can circulate between the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400, the server rack 11, and the gas-liquid heat exchanger 210.

[0051] Here, by adjusting the rotation speeds of the first pump 401 and the second pump 402, it is possible to meet the cooling and heat dissipation needs of the server rack 11. Specifically, when the heat dissipation needs of the server rack 11 increase, the rotation speeds of the first pump 401 and the second pump 402 can be adjusted to be high accordingly. In this way, the amount of cooling liquid per unit time that exchanges heat with the server rack 11 is increased, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency with the server rack 11. When the heat dissipation demand of the server rack 11 is reduced, the rotation speeds of the first pump 401 and the second pump 402 can be adjusted to be low accordingly, thereby meeting the heat dissipation needs of the server rack 11 and reducing the energy consumption of the first pump 401 and the second pump 402. The number of the first pump 401, the second pump 402, and the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 may be one or more, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0052] Furthermore, when specifically realizing the butting of the above-mentioned second hydraulic coolant inlet port 42 with the IT coolant discharge port 13 and the air-cooled coolant discharge port 25, and the butting of the second hydraulic coolant discharge port 44 with the IT coolant inlet port 12 and the air-cooled coolant inlet port 24, the second hydraulic coolant inlet port 42 and the second hydraulic coolant discharge port 44 may be three-way ports, which makes it easy to directly butt the second hydraulic coolant inlet port 42 with the IT coolant discharge port 13 and the air-cooled coolant discharge port 25, and makes it easy to directly butt the second hydraulic coolant discharge port 44 with the IT coolant inlet port 12 and the air-cooled coolant inlet port 24.

[0053] In an embodiment in which the cooling tower is a closed cooling tower 320, preferably, as shown in FIG. 10, the data center 1 may further include a hydraulic equipment container 40. A pump 50 is provided in the hydraulic equipment container 40, which has a hydraulic coolant inlet port 51 and a hydraulic coolant outlet port 52, and a fifth pipe 49 is provided in advance in the hydraulic equipment container 40 to connect the pump 50 to the hydraulic coolant inlet port 51 and the hydraulic coolant outlet port 52. The hydraulic coolant inlet port 51 is connected to the heat dissipation coolant outlet port 33, and the hydraulic coolant outlet port 52 is butted against the IT coolant inlet port 12 and the air-cooled coolant inlet port 24. In this way, in the process of cooling the server rack 11, the pump 50 provides power to the coolant, so that the coolant flowing out of the hydraulic coolant outlet port 52 can flow to the IT coolant inlet port 12 and the air-cooled coolant inlet port 24. Since the closed cooling tower 320 is completely sealed while the temperature of the cooling liquid is decreasing, the cooling liquid is not easily contaminated by foreign matter, and the cooling liquid has a high degree of cleanliness. The cooling liquid flowing out of the closed cooling tower 320 can directly flow into the server rack 11 and the gas-liquid heat exchanger 210.

[0054] In the embodiment in which the hydraulic facility container 40 is provided, the pump 50 or the first liquid-liquid heat exchanger 400 is assembled in advance as the hydraulic facility container 40 at a factory. When constructing the data center 1, the hydraulic facility container 40 may be connected to the IT device container 10, the air-cooling device container 20, and the heat dissipation device container 30.

[0055] Further, preferably, a cold distribution unit may be provided within the IT device container 10. As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 6, the cold distribution unit includes a second liquid-liquid heat exchanger 19, the cooling inlet pipe 16 includes a first sub-cooling inlet pipe 161 and a second sub-cooling inlet pipe 162, the cooling outlet pipe 17 includes a first sub-cooling outlet pipe 171 and a second sub-cooling outlet pipe 172, and the first sub-cooling inlet pipe 161 is connected between the IT coolant inlet port 12 and the first coolant inlet of the second liquid-liquid heat exchanger 19. The second sub-cooling inlet pipe 162 connects the first coolant outlet of the second liquid-liquid heat exchanger 19 and the coolant inlet of the server rack 11, the first sub-cooling outlet pipe 171 connects the IT coolant discharge port 13 and the second coolant outlet of the second liquid-liquid heat exchanger 19, and the second sub-cooling outlet pipe 172 connects the second coolant inlet of the second liquid-liquid heat exchanger 19 and the coolant outlet of the server rack 11.

[0056] By disposing the second liquid-liquid heat exchanger 19, the cooling liquid flowing out from the heat dissipation device 31 does not directly flow into the inside of the server rack 11. Therefore, the operating environment of the server rack 11 is not polluted, and the operating environment of the server rack 11 can be protected.

[0057] In addition, since the server rack 11 has high requirements for the cleanliness of the cooling liquid, the cold and heat distribution unit may preferably further include at least one of a filtering device, a sterilizing device, and a scale removing device. The filtering device, the sterilizing device, and the scale removing device may be provided in the second sub-cooling liquid inlet pipe 162. By providing the filtering device, the sterilizing device, and the scale removing device in the second sub-cooling liquid inlet pipe 162, the cleanliness of the cooling water circulating in the server rack 11 can be improved, and the blockage and flow failure of the cooling water in the pipe can be avoided or reduced, thereby further improving the heat dissipation efficiency and effect of the server rack 11.

[0058] 6, there may be a plurality of server racks 11. By connecting a plurality of server racks 11 in parallel with each other, the cooling liquid flowing out of the second sub-cooling liquid inlet pipe 162 can be divided into a plurality of flows and flow to different server racks 11.

[0059] Furthermore, when there are multiple server racks 11, the exhaust port of one server rack 11 is provided opposite the exhaust port of the other server rack 11, and the exhaust ports of these server racks 11 are positioned between the air inlets of the two server racks 11, making it easy to arrange the duct 180 connected to the exhaust ports of the server racks 11.

[0060] 6, the IT device container 10 may have a smoke exhaust port 181. By providing the smoke exhaust port 181, in the event of a fire, the smoke and heat generated in the IT device container 10 can be exhausted to the outside through the smoke exhaust port 181, forming a negative pressure in the fire area and preventing the smoke from spreading to other areas.

[0061] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the supply of power to devices such as the server rack 11, the power distribution equipment container 60, the substation equipment container 70, etc. may be prefabricated in a factory.

[0062] In one embodiment, the data center further includes a power distribution cabinet 183 in the IT device container 10, the IT device container 10 has an IT electrical input connection port 182, and a first cable 1820 connecting the IT electrical input connection port 182 and the power distribution cabinet 183 is provided in advance in the IT device container 10. The data center further includes a power distribution equipment container 60 and a substation equipment container 70, and a power distribution equipment 600 is provided in the power distribution equipment container 60, the power distribution equipment container 60 has a first power distribution input connection port 61 and a power distribution output connection port 63, and a second cable connecting the power distribution equipment 600 to the first power distribution input connection port 61 and the power distribution output connection port 63 is provided in advance in the power distribution equipment container 60. A substation equipment 700 is provided in a substation equipment container 70, which has a substation input connection port 701 and a substation output connection port 702. A third cable is provided in advance in the substation equipment container 70 to connect the substation equipment 700 to the substation input connection port 701 and the substation output connection port 702. The first distribution input connection port 61 is connected to a utility grid, the distribution output connection port 63 is connected to the substation input connection port 701, and the substation output connection port 702 is connected to the IT electricity input connection port 182. The utility grid is connected to the first distribution input connection port 61 of the distribution equipment container 60, and current is introduced into the distribution equipment 600 via the second cable and is led out from the distribution output connection port 63 via the second cable, and the distribution output connection port 63 is connected to the substation input connection port 701.

[0063] In this way, the current supplied from the utility grid is distributed by the power distribution equipment 600, flows into the substation equipment 700, is stepped down by the substation equipment 700, and then flows into the IT device container 10 via the substation output connection port 702 and the IT electrical input connection port 182, thereby realizing power supply to the server rack 11.

[0064] Since the power distribution equipment 600 and the power substation equipment 700 are prefabricated in advance as the power distribution equipment container 60 and the power substation equipment container 70 in a factory, when constructing the data center 1, the power supply arrangement can be completed simply by establishing the electrical connections between the power distribution equipment container 60, the power substation equipment container 70, and the equipment that requires power supply (e.g., the IT device container 10), thereby significantly shortening the installation time of the data center 1.

[0065] In an embodiment in which there are multiple IT device containers 10, multiple substation output connections 702 may be formed in the substation equipment container 70. It can be understood that each IT device container 10 can be connected to a corresponding substation output connection 702.

[0066] Preferably, the above-mentioned power distribution equipment 600 may include a medium voltage power distribution cabinet. The above-mentioned power transformation equipment 700 may include a transformer, a UPS, a battery, a power distribution cabinet, etc.

[0067] Furthermore, in order to allow the data center 1 to operate normally even when the utility grid is disconnected, the data center 1 may preferably further include a power standby equipment container 80. As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 13, a generator 81 is provided in the power standby equipment container 80, the power standby equipment container 80 has a power standby output connection port 82, and a fourth cable connecting the generator 81 and the power standby output connection port 82 is provided in advance in the power standby equipment container 80. The power distribution equipment container 60 has a second power distribution input connection port 62, the second cable connects the second power distribution input connection port 62 and the power distribution equipment 600, and the power standby output connection port 82 is connected to the second power distribution input connection port 62. When the utility grid is disconnected, the power standby equipment container 80 is employed to supply power to each power-using device in the data center 1. Specifically, the generator 81 in the power standby equipment container 80 generates power and transmits the generated current to the power standby output connection port 82 via the fourth cable. Since the second distribution input connection port 62 is connected to the reserve power output connection port 82, the power generated by the generator 81 can be transmitted through the second cable into the distribution equipment 600 and output to each power-using device (e.g., the IT device container 10) by the substation equipment 700.

[0068] Preferably, as shown in Fig. 4 and Fig. 14, the data center 1 may include a network equipment container 90. A network cabinet, an array power distribution cabinet, and a second air conditioning device are provided in advance in the network equipment container 90, the network equipment container 90 has a network electrical input connection port 91, and a fifth cable is provided in advance in the network equipment container 90 for connecting the array power distribution cabinet, the network cabinet, the second air conditioning device, and the network electrical input connection port 91, and the network electrical input connection port 91 is connected to the transformer output connection port 702. This makes it possible to realize power supply to power-using devices such as the network cabinet, the array power distribution cabinet, and the second air conditioning device in the network equipment container 90.

[0069] 4, the heat dissipation equipment container 30 may be provided with a heat dissipation electricity input connection port 300. The heat dissipation electricity input connection port 300 may be connected to a transformer output connection port 702 to supply electrical energy to the cooling tower. The hydraulic equipment container 40 may be provided with a hydraulic electricity input connection port 410, which may be connected to a transformer output connection port 702 to supply electrical energy to the first pump 401 and the second pump 402. The air-cooling device container 20 may be provided with an air-cooling electricity input connection port 28, which is connected to a transformer output connection port 702 to supply electrical energy to the fan 220 in the air-cooling equipment container 20.

[0070] 4 and 15, the data center 1 further includes a management and auxiliary equipment container 100, in which at least one of a firefighting equipment 101, a low-voltage room 102, a central control room 103, and an office 104 is provided. Similarly, the management and auxiliary equipment container 100 further includes a management electricity input connection port 105, which may be connected to a transformer output connection port 702 to realize power supply to the management and auxiliary equipment container 100.

[0071] By the above technical means, the present disclosure integrates the server rack 11 as an IT device container 10, the equipment required for cooling the server rack 11 as an air-cooling equipment container 20, a water facility container 40, and a heat dissipation equipment container 30, the equipment for supplying power as a power distribution equipment container 60, a substation equipment container 70, and a power reserve equipment container 80, and the equipment for providing a network as a network equipment container 90, etc., so that when constructing a data center 1, the construction of the data center 1 can be completed simply by connecting and mounting each container, thereby realizing rapid and flexible deployment of the data center 1, shortening the construction period, shortening the delivery time, and reducing the carbon dioxide emissions associated with the construction of the data center 1. In the process of arranging each container of the data center 1, as shown in FIG. 5, each container can be combined in any appropriate manner. For example, as shown in Fig. 5, the IT device container 10 may be multiple, and the multiple IT device containers 10 may be arranged in a row, the air-cooling equipment container 20, the water equipment container 40, and the heat dissipation equipment container 30 are located on one side of the multiple IT device containers 10, the power distribution equipment container 60, the substation equipment container 70, the power backup equipment container 80, and the management and support equipment container 100 are located on the other side of the multiple IT device containers 10, and the network equipment container 90 is located on both ends of the multiple IT device containers 10, and the air-cooling equipment container 20, the water equipment container 40, and the IT device container 10 are directly butted against each other, thereby reducing the installation area. Furthermore, the substation equipment container 70 may be arranged closer to the IT device container 10 than the power distribution equipment container 60, the power backup equipment container 80, and the management and support equipment container 100 in order to facilitate power supply to the server rack 11 in the IT device container 10. The management and auxiliary equipment container 100 may be located between the substation equipment container 70 and the distribution equipment container 60, the power reserve equipment container 80 and the management and auxiliary equipment container 100 to facilitate management by an administrator of the IT device container 10, the substation equipment container 70, the distribution equipment container 60, the power reserve equipment container 80 and the management and auxiliary equipment container 100.
