Horizontal Liquid Cooling Separator for Direct Server Connection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional liquid cooling water separators for servers are vertically arranged, complicating the mounting process and making it inconvenient to connect horizontally arranged blade servers directly, thus increasing workload and safety hazards.
Innovation Solution
A transversely arranged liquid cooling water separator with quick-connect ports and pipes, allowing direct connection to horizontally arranged devices, and featuring a transverse layout with quick-connect male and female connectors, pipe clamps, and mounting brackets for simplified assembly and reduced leakage hazards.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the liquid cooling water separator is vertically arranged, then the heat dissipation function is maintained, but the mounting process becomes complicated and the connection to horizontally arranged blade servers requires additional connecting pipes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the conventional vertical arrangement of the liquid cooling water separator to a horizontal arrangement. This inversion allows the separator to be directly connected to horizontally arranged blade servers without requiring additional vertical connecting pipes, thereby simplifying the mounting process and improving ease of operation while maintaining the heat dissipation function.
2Ease of operation
If the liquid cooling water separator is vertically arranged, then the heat dissipation function is maintained, but additional connecting pipes are required to connect horizontally arranged blade servers
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the conventional vertical arrangement to a horizontal arrangement, enabling direct connection between the separator and horizontally arranged blade servers. This eliminates the need for additional connecting pipes, thereby reducing potential water leakage points and improving system reliability while maintaining connection convenience.
3Productivity
If the liquid cooling water separator is vertically arranged, then the heat dissipation function is maintained, but the mounting workload increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the conventional vertical arrangement to a horizontal arrangement that matches the orientation of blade servers. This alignment eliminates the need for complex mounting steps and additional connecting pipes, thereby reducing mounting workload and improving mounting efficiency while maintaining the heat dissipation function.
