Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of indoor air cooling, in particular to a multistage refrigerating system for a data center machine room.
Background
According to analysis, global data centers account for around 1.62% of world energy usage in 2014. By 2017, this figure has risen above 3% (about 420 terawatts), and the emissions from data centers will also account for around 2% of the total greenhouse gas emissions. As many as 500 billion internet of things devices will be used globally by 2020, while other statistics show that there are likely to be over 1000 billion internet of things devices in the next five years. Worldwide, data centers are the largest users of global energy usage scale, rising from 0.9% in 2015 to 4.5% in 2025. This research indicates that data centers will become one of the largest energy consumers worldwide, exceeding energy consumption levels in many countries.
The traditional cooling system of the data center machine room generally adopts a mechanical refrigeration mode, namely, a compressor is utilized to do work, various types of refrigerants are used as carriers, and a large amount of heat generated by the data center machine room is transported to the outside from the inside of the data center machine room, so that the machine room is cooled. However, the energy efficiency ratio of the traditional mechanical refrigeration system is too low, a large amount of energy is consumed, and for a large-scale data center machine room, the cost is high, the refrigeration effect is not good, and the traditional mechanical refrigeration system is not the most economical choice.
Based on indirect evaporative cooling principle, utilize the cold volume of outdoor cold air self promptly, in addition the water evaporative cooling principle, carry out the cold volume transmission with its hot-air with the indoor higher temperature of data center computer lab through non-direct contact heat exchanger to realize the process of the interior hotter air cooling of data center computer lab, promptly acquire cold volume from natural environment, utilize outdoor cold air to cool down the data center computer lab. The data center machine room built in this way has better refrigeration effect and is more energy-saving. However, the application of the indirect evaporative cooling system is limited by the climate conditions of the application area, and the natural cold air can be utilized in a short time and with a low energy efficiency ratio all the year around due to the fact that the cold time all the year around is too short and the average air temperature is high in part of the area; in addition, the indirect evaporative cooling system cannot meet the requirement of uninterrupted refrigeration because cold air cannot be stored due to the fact that air is directly subjected to heat exchange to convey cold air, and therefore the application scene of the indirect evaporative cooling system is very limited. In summary, how to construct a system can further prolong the time of utilizing natural cold air, improve the energy efficiency ratio of the data center machine room, expand the application area of the indirect evaporative cooling system, and provide cold storage, so as to meet the requirement of uninterrupted refrigeration of the data center machine room on the basis of the indirect evaporative cooling technology, which is a problem to be solved.

In a particular example, the cold coil 41 of the pre-cooling chamber 4 is opened; the first spraying equipment 11 and the first air handling unit 12 of the first cooling chamber 1 are simultaneously started; and the second spraying device 31 and the second air handling unit 32 of the second cooling chamber 3 are also simultaneously turned on:
referring to the psychrometric chart shown in fig. 2, the vertical axis represents the wet bulb temperature t, the horizontal axis represents the relative humidity, the curve represents the equal relative humidity line, W0 represents the outdoor fresh air, W1 represents the outdoor fresh air after pre-cooling, W2 represents the first cool air, and W3 represents the second cool air.
In the prior art, only a single primary indirect evaporative cooling is performed, the outdoor fresh air W0 is subjected to primary indirect evaporative cooling to form cold fresh air W1 'to refrigerate a data center machine room, and the temperature of the cold fresh air W1' is between W1 and W2 but not reaches the temperature of W3.
In order to achieve a better refrigeration effect and enable the temperature which finally flows into a data center machine room to be lower and more stable, the outdoor fresh air W0 is subjected to equal-humidity cooling through the pre-cooling chamber 4, the absolute moisture content in the fresh air is unchanged through the process, but the temperature is reduced to be in a W1 state, and the pre-cooled outdoor fresh air is formed; the precooled outdoor fresh air is subjected to an equal-humidity cooling process of first indirect evaporative cooling through the first cooling chamber 1, and the precooled outdoor fresh air W1 is cooled to first cold air W2; the first cold air W2 is stored in the cold storage space 2 in a closed manner, then the first cold air W2 is subjected to an isenthalpic cooling process of direct evaporative cooling through the second cooling chamber 3, the first cold air W2 is cooled to the second cold air W3, and finally the data center machine room is refrigerated by utilizing the second cold air W3. The temperature of the state point of the second cold air W3 is between the wet bulb temperature (W2) and the dew point temperature of the state point W0, and the W3 temperature is usually 2-5 ℃ lower than the wet bulb temperature (W2) of the state point W0 according to different meteorological conditions in different areas.
After the constant-humidity cooling through one-time indirect evaporative cooling, the temperature of the new state point is generally more than 2-5 ℃ of the wet bulb temperature of the initial state point.
Compared with single indirect evaporative cooling equipment in the prior art, the multi-stage refrigeration system has the advantages that the temperature of the final state point is lowered by 4-10 ℃, and the change of the state point can enable the available natural cooling temperature point of the system to be raised by 4-10 ℃. The natural cooling temperature point of an original certain area is assumed to be the wet bulb temperature of 16 ℃, and after the system is applied, the natural cooling temperature point is increased to 20-26 ℃, so that the annual natural cooling time is greatly prolonged, the energy consumption of the system is reduced, and the annual energy efficiency ratio of the refrigeration system is improved. Taking the Beijing area as an example, if the natural cooling temperature point is increased by 7 ℃, 1800 hours of natural cooling time can be increased every year, and huge energy-saving benefit can be generated.
In addition, in the system of the invention, a huge closed heat insulation space, namely the cold accumulation space 2 is separately arranged, and the space stores a large amount of cold air at the W2 state point, so that the space can be used as the cold accumulation space of the data center machine room and meets the uninterrupted cold supply requirement of the data center machine room.
In a preferred embodiment, water in the second water pan 33 of the second cooling chamber 3 is introduced into the cold coil 41 through the water pump and the cold water pipe to pre-cool fresh air outdoors, so that the second cooling chamber 3 can not only cool the data center machine room through heat exchange by the heat exchange core of the second air handling unit 32, but also output cold water at a W2 state point, the cold water is introduced into the cold coil 41 of the pre-cooling chamber 4 through the water pump and the cold water pipe to cool the fresh air outdoors for pre-cooling, and the cold water can be mixed with water after passing through the cold coil 41 and used as spraying water for the first cooling chamber 1 and the second cooling chamber 3, thereby realizing recycling of the cooling water.
