Intelligent in-rack pump or compressor unit for datacenter cooling systems
摘要
說明書
In at least one embodiment, electronic features of provided flow controllers receive control signals and assert control over mechanical features. In at least one embodiment, electronic features of provided flow controllers may be actuators or other electronic parts of other similar electromechanical features. In at least one embodiment, flow pumps may be used as flow controllers. In at least one embodiment, impellers, pistons, or bellows may be mechanical features, and an electronic motor and circuitry form electronic features of provided flow controllers.
In at least one embodiment, circuitry of provided flow controllers may include processors, memories, switches, sensors, and other components, altogether forming electronic features of provided flow controllers. In at least one embodiment, provided ports 252, 262, 272, 268 of provided flow controllers are adapted to either allow entry or to allow egress of an immersive fluid. In at least one embodiment, flow controllers 280 (capable of acting as an expansion valve) may be associated with fluid lines 276 (also 256, 274) that enable entry and egress of a two-phase fluid (such as a refrigerant or engineered fluid) to a cold plate 210B. In at least one embodiment, other flow controllers may be similarly associated with coolant lines 210, 216, 212 (also 266, 258) to enable entry and egress of a secondary coolant to a cold plate 210B.
