Description

Liquid cooling monitoring method, system, device and computing equipment

[0001] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the China Patent Office on November 15, 2023, with application number 202311525622.1 and application name “Liquid Cooling Monitoring Method, System, Device and Computing Equipment”, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field

[0002] The embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of computing devices, and in particular to a liquid cooling monitoring method, system, device, and computing device. Background Art

[0003] Liquid cooling in data center computer rooms has become a mainstream trend, and server suppliers or users of liquid cooling monitoring systems are paying more and more attention to the energy efficiency level of liquid cooling monitoring systems.

[0004] Currently, server vendors typically provide the system's Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) to demonstrate the system's cooling efficiency to users. PUE = total cooling system energy consumption / energy consumption of Internet technology (IT) equipment. A PUE value greater than 1 and closer to 1 indicates lower energy consumption by non-IT equipment in the cooling system, indicating a higher cooling efficiency.

[0005] However, using PUE to reflect the liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency of the liquid cooling monitoring system has the following problems: on the one hand, the PUE calculation method is relatively complicated, and it is necessary to collect the energy consumption of various equipment and components in the liquid cooling monitoring system and calculate the PUE manually, which wastes a lot of manpower and time costs and leads to low efficiency; on the other hand, the use of PUE indicators cannot enable users of the liquid cooling monitoring system to monitor the liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency of the liquid cooling monitoring system intuitively and conveniently, resulting in a decline in the user experience of the liquid cooling monitoring system, and thus a decline in product competitiveness.

[0076] Currently, server vendors typically provide the PUE (Power Use Effective Date) of liquid cooling monitoring systems to demonstrate their energy efficiency to users. However, using PUE to reflect the energy efficiency of liquid cooling monitoring systems presents the following problems: First, the PUE calculation method is complex, requiring the collection of energy consumption data from various devices and components within the system and manual calculation of the PUE, which wastes significant manpower and time, resulting in low efficiency. Second, the PUE indicator prevents users from intuitively and conveniently monitoring the system's energy efficiency, leading to a reduced user experience and, in turn, a decline in product competitiveness.

The method can automatically calculate the first amount of heat absorbed, the first total power consumption, and the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio through the management device, reducing labor costs and time costs, and improving the efficiency of calculating liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency; the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio, the first amount of heat absorbed, and the first total power consumption of the liquid cooling monitoring system can also be visually displayed based on the first page in the management device, so that users of the liquid cooling monitoring system can more intuitively and conveniently monitor the liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency of the liquid cooling monitoring system, thereby improving the user experience of the liquid cooling monitoring system and thereby improving the product competitiveness of the service provider.

[0078] In order to facilitate the understanding of the liquid cooling monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application, first, with reference to FIG1 , the architecture of the liquid cooling monitoring system involved in the embodiment of the present application is introduced.

[0079] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the architecture of a liquid cooling monitoring system provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 1 , the liquid cooling monitoring system can be applied to a liquid-cooled data center computer room and can include a management device, multiple servers, and a liquid cooling distribution system.

[0080] Each server may include a server management system; a cooling distribution unit (CDU) may be provided in the liquid cooling distribution system, and a CDU management system may be integrated into the CDU; and the management device may include a data center management platform.

[0081] For any server, the server (or the server management system in the server) can be used to: obtain the total power consumption of the server at each moment, and send the total power consumption at each moment to the management device (or the data center management platform in the management device).

[0082] It should be noted that the liquid cooling monitoring system may include at least one server, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit the number of servers. For example, the server in the embodiment of the present application may be a cabinet server, which may include at least one node.

[0083] The liquid cooling distribution system (or the CDU management system in the liquid cooling distribution system) can be used to distribute liquid cooling media to the server, collect the first data of the liquid cooling distribution system at each moment, and send the first data at each moment to the management device (or the data center management platform in the management device). The first data can include at least: water outlet temperature, water inlet temperature and unit flow rate.

[0084] The liquid cooling distribution system further includes a first temperature sensor, a second temperature sensor, and a flow meter. The first temperature sensor is used to detect the outlet temperature of the liquid cooling distribution system, the second temperature sensor is used to detect the return temperature of the liquid cooling distribution system, and the flow meter is used to detect the unit flow rate of the liquid cooling distribution system.

[0085] The first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor and the flow meter can be arranged between the liquid cooling distribution system and the server. The first temperature sensor can be used to detect the water outlet temperature T1 (°C) of the secondary side pipeline of the liquid cooling distribution system; the second temperature sensor can be used to detect the return water temperature T2 (°C) of the secondary side pipeline of the liquid cooling distribution system; the flow meter can be used to detect the unit flow rate (L / min) of the secondary side pipeline of the liquid cooling distribution system.

[0086] The CDU can be connected to a first temperature sensor and a second temperature sensor via sensor cables, respectively, so that the CDU management system can periodically or in real time obtain the outlet and return temperatures of the liquid cooling distribution system through the first and second temperature sensors. The CDU can also communicate with a flow meter via an SNMP management interface to periodically or in real time obtain the unit flow rate of the liquid cooling distribution system.

[0087] The liquid cooling distribution system is connected to each server through an inlet pipe and a return pipe. The liquid cooling distribution system can control the flow of liquid cooling medium from the inlet pipe to each server. After absorbing the heat generated by each node in each server, it returns to the liquid cooling distribution system through the return pipe to provide liquid cooling heat dissipation function for each node in each server.

[0088] The management device is communicatively connected to each server and the liquid cooling distribution system. The management device (or a data center management platform in the management device) can be used to determine a first amount of heat absorbed by the liquid cooling monitoring system in a first time period based on first data at each moment sent by the liquid cooling distribution system, determine a first total power consumption of the server at the first moment from the total power consumption at each moment sent by the server, determine a liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio of the liquid cooling monitoring system based on the first amount of heat absorbed and the first total power consumption, and provide a first page; wherein the first time period includes the first moment, and the first page includes the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio.

[0089] The data center management platform in the management device can obtain the outlet temperature, inlet temperature, and unit flow rate of the liquid cooling distribution system from the CDU management system in real time or periodically via the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface. The data center management platform in the management device can also obtain the power consumption information of each server from the server management system in real time or periodically via interfaces such as Redfish, SNMP, and the Web User Interface (Web UI).

[0090] The following is an explanation of the method shown in the embodiment of the present application through specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following embodiments can exist independently or in combination with each other, and the same or similar contents will not be repeated in different embodiments.

[0091] FIG2 is a flow chart of a liquid cooling monitoring method provided in an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG2 , the method may include:

[0092] In an embodiment of the present application, the method can be applied to a computing device, which may be the management device shown in Figure 1. For example, the method can be implemented by the management device, or by a chip in the management device, or by a data center management platform in the management device.

[0093] S201: Determine a first amount of heat absorbed by a liquid cooling monitoring system in a first time period.

[0094] The first absorbed heat is the heat absorbed by the liquid cooling distribution system from the server in the first time period.

[0095] In a possible implementation, the first time period may be determined in the following manner: obtaining a time parameter input by a user; and determining the first time period according to the time parameter.

[0096] The user can input time parameters on the management page of the data center management platform of the management device, and the management device can flexibly determine the first time period based on the input time parameters.

[0097] Case 1: If the time parameter includes a start time and an end time, the first time period is determined according to the start time and the end time.

[0098] For example, if the start time is 9:00 and the end time is 10:00, the first time period is from 9:00 to 10:00.

[0099] In some examples, if the time parameter includes multiple start times and multiple end times, the multiple start times and multiple end times may be sorted in chronological order, and multiple first time periods may be determined according to the sorting result.

[0100] For example, the time parameters include: the first starting time 9:00, the second starting time 11:00, the third starting time 13:00, the first ending time 9:30, the second ending time 11:30, and the third ending time 13:30. After sorting, three first time periods can be determined: 9:00-9:30, 11:00-11:30, and 13:00-13:30.

[0101] Case 2: If the time parameters include a target time period and a target duration, then at least one first time period and a start time and an end time of the first time period are determined within the target time period according to the target duration.

[0102] For example, if the target time period is 8:00-12:00 and the target duration is 1 hour, four first time periods may be determined within the target time period, namely: 8:00-9:00, 9:00-10:00, 10:00-11:00, and 11:00-12:00.

[0103] Users of the liquid cooling monitoring system can set a target time period and target duration based on their needs. For example, the target duration can be 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes.

[0104] In some examples, a data center management platform in a management device can calculate the first absorbed heat of a liquid cooling monitoring system by building and training a computing model.

[0105] In some examples, the management device may further periodically determine the first time period based on a preset period and the most recent time when the first absorbed heat amount was obtained. The management device may determine the most recent time when the first absorbed heat amount was obtained as the start time of the first time period, determine the end time of the first time period based on the preset period, and determine the first time period based on the start time and the end time.

[0106] For example, assuming that the latest time of obtaining the first absorbed heat is 9:00 and the preset period is 30 minutes, the start time of the first time period is 9:00 and the end time of the first time period is 9:30, and the first time period is 9:00 to 9:30.

[0107] It should be noted that a possible implementation method for determining the first absorbed heat will be described in detail in the embodiment of FIG4 .

[0108] S202: Determine a first total power consumption of the server at a first moment.

[0109] The first time period may include a first moment. Optionally, the first moment may be a start moment of the first time period, or an end moment of the first time period; or the first moment may be any moment within the first time period.

[0110] It is understandable that the number of servers can be one or more, and the following uses multiple servers as an example. In one possible implementation, the first total power consumption can be obtained by: obtaining second data sent by each server (or server management system) according to the target time, the second data including the first power consumption of each server at the first time; and summing the first power consumption of each server at the first time to obtain the first total power consumption.

[0111] For example, there are four servers, and the second data corresponding to these four servers may be as shown in Table 1:

[0112] Table 1

[0113] According to Table 1, the first total power consumption may be 35+25+45+32=137 kilowatts.

[0114] S203: Determine a liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio of the liquid cooling monitoring system according to the first absorbed heat amount and the first total power consumption.

[0115] The management device can also determine the power saved by the liquid cooling monitoring system based on the first absorbed heat. The relationship between heat and power can be as follows: 1 kilowatt-hour (kW·h) = 3,600,000 joules (J), indicating that for every 3,600,000 J of heat absorbed, 1 kilowatt-hour of power can be saved.

[0116] In one possible implementation, the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio can be determined as follows: the first absorbed heat is converted according to a first conversion coefficient to obtain first intermediate data; the first intermediate data is divided by the length of the first time period to obtain second intermediate data; and the ratio of the second intermediate data to the first total power consumption is determined as the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio.

[0117] For example, the first absorbed heat is 165834000J, and the first conversion coefficient is 1 / 3600000 (kW·h) / J, then the first intermediate data is 165834000J×(1 / 3600000) (kW·h) / J=46.065kW·h; the length of the first time period is 0.5h, then the second intermediate data is 46.065kW·h÷0.5h=92.13kW; the first total power consumption is 111kw, then the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio = 92.13kW÷111kw=83%.

[0118] In one possible implementation, the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio can be determined as follows: multiply the first total power consumption and the length of the first time period to obtain first intermediate data; convert the first intermediate data according to a second conversion coefficient to obtain second intermediate data; and determine the ratio of the first absorbed heat to the second intermediate data as the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio.

[0119] For example, the first total power consumption is 111kw, and the length of the first time period is 0.5h, then: the first intermediate data = 111kw×0.5h=55.5kW·h; the preset conversion coefficient is: 1kW·h=3600000J, then the second intermediate data = 3600000J / (kW·h)×55.5kW·h=199800000J; the first absorbed heat is 165834000J, then the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio = 165834000J÷199800000J=83%.

[0120] S204: Provide a first page, where the first page includes a liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio.

[0121] The management device can provide the first page to the user, so that the user can monitor and manage the liquid cooling energy efficiency of the liquid cooling monitoring system based on the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio on the first page. The user can view the first page by logging into a website, for example, the user can log into the website corresponding to the data center management platform and view the first page on the website.

[0122] In one possible implementation, the first page may include a first display area and / or a second display area, wherein:

[0123] The first display area can be used to display the liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency parameters of the liquid cooling monitoring system.

[0124] The liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency parameter may include at least one of the following: a liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio, a first absorbed heat amount, and a first total power consumption.

[0125] Optionally, in some examples, the liquid cooling energy efficiency parameter may further include a second total power consumption and a cooling coefficient. The calculation process of the second total power consumption and the cooling coefficient will be described in detail in the embodiment of FIG5 .

[0126] In some examples, the liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency parameters may also include the cumulative absorbed heat of the liquid cooling distribution system and the total system power consumption of the liquid cooling monitoring system. The total system power consumption of the liquid cooling monitoring system may include the power consumption of all devices in the liquid cooling monitoring system.

[0127] The first display area may also display prompt information of at least one liquid cooling energy efficiency parameter. For example, the prompt information may be the generation time and parameter description information of the liquid cooling energy efficiency parameter.

[0128] The second display area can be used to display the liquid cooling heat dissipation data of the liquid cooling monitoring system within the target time period. The target time period may include at least one first time period, and the liquid cooling heat dissipation data may include the liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency parameters within at least one first time period.

[0129] The liquid cooling data can be presented in a variety of forms in the second display area.

[0130] For example, the liquid cooling data can be presented in the second display area in text form. The text-based liquid cooling data can be as follows:

[0131] First time period (9:00-9:30): first absorbed heat: 165834000J. At the first time 9:15, the first total power consumption is 111kw, and the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio is 83%;

[0132] The first time period (9:30-10:00): the first absorbed heat: 160,000,000 J. At the first moment 9:45, the first total power consumption was 107.1 kW, and the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio was 83%.

[0133] For example, the liquid cooling data may be presented in a table format in the second display area. For example, the liquid cooling data in a table format may be shown in the following table:

[0134] Table 2

[0135] For example, the liquid cooling data may also be presented in the second display area in the form of a bar graph, a line graph, or the like.

[0136] FIG3 is a schematic diagram of a first page provided by an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG3 , the first page may include a first display area and a second display area. In particular:

[0137] The first display area is used to display the liquid cooling heat dissipation energy efficiency parameters of the liquid cooling monitoring system. For example, in Figure 3, the first display area can display the first total power consumption, the total system power consumption of the liquid cooling monitoring system, the cumulative heat absorbed by the liquid cooling distribution system, and the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio.

[0138] The second display area is used to display the liquid cooling heat dissipation data of the liquid cooling monitoring system within the target time period. Exemplarily, the liquid cooling heat dissipation data can be the first heat absorption data of the liquid cooling distribution system within the target time period. The first heat absorption data can be presented in the form of a liquid cooling heat dissipation statistical curve chart, the horizontal axis of the liquid cooling heat dissipation statistical curve chart is time, and the vertical axis is the first heat absorption of the liquid cooling heat dissipation system. The data center management platform can determine multiple first time periods within the target period, and determine a first moment in each first time period; the data center management platform can obtain the first heat absorption of the liquid cooling heat dissipation system in each first time period; in any first time period, a first coordinate point is determined with the first moment as the horizontal axis and the first heat absorption in the first time period as the vertical axis; the first coordinate points in multiple first time periods are connected in sequence to generate the liquid cooling heat dissipation statistical curve.

[0139] The liquid cooling monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a management device, which is respectively connected to a server and a liquid cooling distribution system, and the liquid cooling distribution system can allocate liquid cooling medium to the server. The management device can automatically determine the first absorbed heat absorbed by the liquid cooling monitoring system from the server through the liquid cooling distribution system during a first time period; and determine the first total power consumption of the server at a first moment; and automatically determine the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio of the liquid cooling monitoring system based on the first absorbed heat and the first total power consumption, and provide a first page to display the liquid cooling heat dissipation ratio of the liquid cooling monitoring system to the user of the liquid cooling monitoring system through the first page.

[0140] 4 , a process of a possible implementation method for determining the first absorbed heat of the liquid cooling monitoring system in an embodiment of the present application is described.

[0141] FIG4 is a schematic diagram of a process for determining a first absorbed heat amount provided by an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG4 , the process may include:

[0142] In an embodiment of the present application, the method can be applied to a computing device, which may be the management device shown in Figure 1. For example, the method can be implemented by the management device, or by a chip in the management device, or by a data center management platform in the management device.

[0143] S401: Determine a first time period.

[0144] It should be noted that the specific execution process of S401 may refer to the specific execution process of determining the first time period in S201, and will not be described in detail here.

[0145] S402: Acquire first data of the liquid cooling distribution system at a second moment.

[0146] The first data may include: water outlet temperature, water return temperature and unit flow rate.

[0147] The first time period may include a second time. Optionally, the second time may be the start time of the first time period, or the end time of the first time period; or the second time may be any time within the first time period. Within the first time period, the first time period and the second time period may be the same or different.

[0148] The liquid cooling distribution system may periodically or in real time send the first data to the data center management platform in the management device via the CDU management system. Alternatively, the CDU management system in the liquid cooling distribution system may receive a data acquisition instruction sent by the management device via the data center management platform and return the first data to the data center management platform based on the data acquisition instruction.

[0149] Optionally, the management device may periodically or in real time receive the outlet temperature, return temperature, and unit flow rate at each moment from the liquid cooling distribution system, and store the received outlet temperature, return temperature, and unit flow rate at each moment in a local database. When the first absorbed heat amount needs to be calculated, the first data corresponding to the second moment is searched in the local database.

[0150] After obtaining the first data, the first absorbed heat amount may be determined according to the preset time duration and the first data. For the specific execution process, please refer to S403 to S406.

[0151] S403: Determine the temperature difference based on the water outlet temperature and the water return temperature.

[0152] The difference between the outlet temperature and the return temperature can be determined as the temperature difference.

[0153] For example, if the outlet temperature is 40°C and the return temperature is 48°C, the temperature difference is 8°C.

[0154] S404: Determine the total flow of the liquid cooling distribution system in the first time period according to the length of the first time period and the unit flow rate.

[0155] The total flow rate may be determined as the product of the length of the first time period and the unit flow rate.

[0156] For example, the length of the first time period is 30 minutes, and the unit flow rate is 200 liters / minute, then the total flow rate is 30×200=6000 liters.

[0157] S405: Determine the specific heat capacity and density of the liquid cooling medium in the liquid cooling pipeline.

[0158] The specific heat capacity and density of the liquid cooling medium may be preset parameters input by a user of the liquid cooling center.

[0159] The user of the liquid cooling monitoring system can directly enter the specific heat capacity and density of the liquid cooling medium on the parameter setting page of the data center management platform. For example, the liquid cooling medium in the liquid cooling pipeline can be 25% ethylene glycol working medium water, and the density of the 25% ethylene glycol working medium water can be set to 1030kg / m 3 , the specific heat capacity can be set to 3.75kJ / (kg·℃).

[0160] Users of the liquid cooling monitoring system can determine the specific heat capacity and density of the liquid cooling medium based on the design data of the liquid cooling pipeline. This data includes the liquid cooling medium, design temperature, and design pressure. Typically, once the liquid cooling medium, design temperature, and design pressure are determined, the specific heat capacity and density of the liquid cooling medium are also determined.

[0161] S406. Determine a first absorbed heat amount according to the specific heat capacity, density, total flow rate and temperature difference.

[0162] Optionally, the first absorbed heat satisfies the following formula: Q 吸 =CMΔT=C(ρV)ΔT=C(ρLt)(T2-T1)

[0163] Among them, Q 吸 is the first absorbed heat; C is the specific heat capacity of the liquid cooling medium; M is the mass of the liquid cooling medium; ΔT is the temperature difference between the outlet and the inlet of the liquid cooling pipeline; ρ is the density of the liquid cooling medium; V is the total flow rate of the liquid cooling medium; L is the unit flow rate of the liquid cooling pipeline; t is the length of the first time period; T2 is the return water temperature; T1 is the inlet temperature.

[0164] For example, the liquid cooling medium is 25% ethylene glycol water, and the density ρ is 1030 kg / m 3 , specific heat capacity C is 3.75kJ / (kg·℃), and the total flow rate V is 6000m 3 , the temperature difference is 8℃, then the first absorbed heat Q 吸 =1030×3.75×6000×8=185400000kJ.

[0165] In one possible implementation, the first data may further include a second total power consumption of the liquid cooling distribution system at the first moment. After determining the first absorbed heat, the liquid cooling monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further obtain a cooling coefficient of the liquid cooling distribution system.

[0166] 5 , the process of obtaining the cooling coefficient of the liquid cooling distribution system in the embodiment of the present application is described in detail.

[0167] FIG5 is a flow chart of a method for obtaining a cooling coefficient of a liquid cooling distribution system according to an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG5 , the method may include:

[0168] In an embodiment of the present application, the method can be applied to a computing device, which can be a management device of a data center as shown in Figure 1. For example, the method can be implemented by the management device, or by a chip in the management device, or by a data center management platform in the management device.

[0169] S501: Determine a first amount of heat absorbed by a liquid cooling monitoring system in a first time period.

[0170] It should be noted that the specific execution process of S501 can refer to the specific execution process of S201, and will not be repeated here.

[0171] S502: Obtain a second total power consumption of the liquid cooling distribution system at a first moment.

[0172] The liquid cooling distribution system can adopt the power consumption detection method or detection equipment in the related technology to obtain the second total power consumption of the liquid cooling distribution system at each moment. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the type of power consumption detection method or detection equipment.

[0173] S503: Determine a cooling coefficient of the liquid cooling distribution system according to the first absorbed heat and the second total power consumption.

[0174] Optionally, the cooling coefficient of the liquid cooling distribution system can be determined by: determining the first heat absorption power of the liquid cooling distribution system based on the first absorbed heat; and determining the ratio of the first heat absorption power to the second total power consumption as the cooling coefficient.

[0175] The first heat absorption power can be determined based on the first absorbed heat amount and the length of the first time period. For example, if the first absorbed heat amount is 3,600,000 J and the first time period is 10 minutes, since 1 kilowatt-hour (kW·h) = 3,600,000 joules (J), the first absorbed heat amount can be converted to 1 kilowatt-hour, and the first heat absorption power is 1 kW·h ÷ (10 / 60)h = 6 kW.

[0176] Optionally, the cooling coefficient can be calculated using the following formula:

[0177] Wherein, η' is the cooling coefficient; P' is the first heat absorption power; P CDU总功耗 Allocate the system's total power consumption for liquid cooling.

[0178] S504: Display the cooling coefficient.

[0179] The Coefficient of Performance (COP) reflects the energy conversion efficiency of a liquid cooling distribution system. A higher Coefficient of Performance (COP) indicates a higher energy efficiency level for the liquid cooling distribution system. A lower Coefficient of Performance (COP) indicates a lower energy efficiency level for the liquid cooling distribution system.

[0180] The liquid cooling monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application can also obtain the second total power consumption of the liquid cooling distribution system at the first moment after obtaining the first absorbed heat of the liquid cooling distribution system in the first time period, and automatically determine the cooling coefficient of the liquid cooling distribution system based on the first absorbed heat and the second total power consumption through the management device, and display the cooling coefficient on the first page, so that the user of the liquid cooling monitoring system can monitor the energy efficiency of the liquid cooling distribution system intuitively and conveniently, which is conducive to improving the user experience of the user of the liquid cooling monitoring system.
