Intelligent in-rack pump or compressor unit for datacenter cooling systems
摘要
說明書
In at least one embodiment, a two-phase fluid may only support cold plate usage and may not be available for immersive cooling. In at least one embodiment, each type of cold plate receives different two-phase fluid and secondary coolant from respective two-phase fluid cooling loops, or a secondary or other cooling loops interfacing with a primary cooling loop. In at least one embodiment, in situations where different fluids (such as coolants) are used with different coolant distribution units (CDUs) of different secondary loops, then a different cooling loops may be suited for a dual-cooling cold plate, along with a two-phase fluid cooling loop, so that different channels may be used for each of a two-phase fluid and for different secondary coolants. In at least one embodiment, any cold plate referenced herein is able to work above a dew point to prevent moisture formation, such as at above 20 degrees Fahrenheit, or above a determined ambient dew point.
In at least one embodiment, a dual-cooling cold plate 250 is adapted to receive a two types of fluids (such as a secondary coolant and a two-phase fluid) and to keep two types of fluids distinct from each other via their distinct ports 252, 272; 268, 262 and their distinct paths 264, 270, such as by distinct sections separated by gaskets and plates (such as in a gasket type cold plate). In at least one embodiment, each distinct path is a fluid path. In at least one embodiment, fluid (such as a two-phase fluid) from a two-phase fluid source and a secondary coolant may be provided simultaneously to address additional cooling requirements.
