Specifically, the indoor cooling module 10 is disposed inside the container, and the pump cabinet module 20 and the outdoor heat dissipation module 30 are disposed outside the container. The indoor cooling module 10 may be, for example, an evaporator, and is configured to evaporate a liquid refrigerant to generate a gaseous refrigerant, and the liquid refrigerant takes away heat in the IT cabinet and surrounding air during evaporation, so as to dissipate heat from the IT cabinet. The pump cabinet module 20 may be, for example, an air pump, and is configured to pressurize the gaseous refrigerant generated by the indoor refrigeration module 10, and the pressurized gaseous refrigerant is transmitted to the outdoor heat dissipation module 30, and the outdoor heat dissipation module 30 may be, for example, a condenser, and is configured to condense the pressurized gaseous refrigerant to generate a liquid refrigerant, where the heat is dissipated during the condensation of the gaseous refrigerant, and the obtained liquid refrigerant is transmitted to the indoor refrigeration module 10 to continue to evaporate and absorb heat. Therefore, the refrigerant absorbs heat and radiates heat in the internal and external circulation of the container, and plays a good refrigeration role in the container data center.
