The adsorber 300 includes a heat exchanger disposed within the adsorption chamber for providing cold or heat to the adsorbent within the adsorption chamber to cause the adsorbent to be adsorbed by and desorbed from the adsorbent within the adsorption chamber.

Exemplary adsorbents may include, but are not limited to, cooling water, cooling oil, and the like.

By way of example, the adsorbent may comprise one or more of the following: activated carbon, silica gel, metal organic frameworks (metal organic frameworks, MOF), activated alumina, and the like.

The adsorption refrigeration device 50 further includes a condenser 200, the condenser 200 includes a condensation chamber, the condensation chamber has an inlet end and an outlet end, the inlet end of the condensation chamber and the outlet end of the condensation chamber are both communicated with the condensation chamber, the inlet end of the condensation chamber is used for allowing the adsorbate to flow into the condensation chamber so as to make the adsorbate exothermically condense in the condensation chamber, and the outlet end of the condensation chamber is used for allowing the adsorbate condensed in the condensation chamber to flow out of the condensation chamber. The condenser 200 includes a cooling member disposed in the condensing chamber for absorbing heat from the adsorbate in the condensing chamber to exothermically condense the adsorbate in the condensing chamber.

The outlet end of the adsorption cavity is connected with the inlet end of the condensation cavity, so that the adsorbate desorbed in the adsorption cavity can flow into the condensation cavity for condensation.

By way of example, the cooling member may include heat exchange tubes or the like for passing a heat exchange medium therethrough.

The adsorption refrigeration device 50 further includes an evaporator 100, where the evaporator 100 includes an evaporation chamber, the evaporation chamber has an inlet end and an outlet end, the inlet end of the evaporation chamber and the outlet end of the evaporation chamber are both communicated with the evaporation chamber, the inlet end of the evaporation chamber is used for allowing the adsorbate to flow into the evaporation chamber, so that the adsorbate absorbs heat in the evaporation chamber and evaporates, and the outlet end of the evaporation chamber is used for allowing the adsorbate evaporated in the evaporation chamber to flow out of the evaporation chamber. The evaporator 100 includes a heat supply part provided in the evaporation chamber, and absorbs heat of the heat supply part when the liquid adsorbent in the evaporation chamber evaporates, so that the heat supply part can be used for cooling.

The outlet end of the condensing chamber is connected with the inlet end of the evaporating chamber, so that the adsorbate condensed by the condenser 200 can flow into the evaporating chamber for evaporation.

By way of example, the heat supply means may comprise heat exchange tubes or the like for the flow of a heat exchange medium.

The adsorber 300 may alternately supply a heating medium and a cooling medium into the heat exchanger to alternately heat and cool the adsorbent in the adsorption chamber, so that the adsorbent in the adsorption chamber may alternately desorb and adsorb, the desorbed adsorbent may flow into the condensation chamber from the adsorption chamber, the adsorbent flowing into the condensation chamber from the adsorption chamber may enter the evaporation chamber after being condensed into a liquid state by the condenser 200 in the condensation chamber, and the evaporator 100 may evaporate the liquid adsorbent in the evaporation chamber, thereby realizing refrigeration.

In addition, the heat exchanger is difficult to reinstall after being disassembled from the medium input pipe and the medium output pipe.

As shown in fig. 3, the inlet end of the heat exchanger 320 is connected to the outlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20, and the outlet end of the heat exchanger 320 is connected to the inlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20. So that the cooling liquid flowing out from the outlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20, which absorbs the heat generated by the heat generating device of the liquid cooling apparatus 20, can flow into the heat exchanger 320, the cooling liquid flowing into the heat exchanger 320 can be used to heat the adsorbate adsorbed by the adsorbent in the adsorption cavity 311 to desorb the adsorbate, that is, the cooling liquid from the liquid cooling apparatus 20 can be used as a heating medium for supplying heat to the adsorbate in the adsorption cavity 311 in the heat exchanger 320. After the cooling liquid from the liquid cooling device 20 flows out from the outlet end of the heat exchanger 320, the cooling liquid can flow back into the liquid cooling device 20 and be continuously used for taking away the heat generated by the heating device of the liquid cooling device 20.

The inlet end of the heat exchanger 320 is further connected to the outlet end of the cold source device 30, and the outlet end of the heat exchanger 320 is further connected to the inlet end of the cold source device 30, so that the medium having a relatively low temperature flowing out of the outlet end of the cold source device 30 can flow into the heat exchanger 320, and the medium flowing into the heat exchanger 320 can be used to cool the adsorbent in the adsorption chamber 311, so that the adsorbent is adsorbed by the adsorbent, that is, the medium from the cold source device 30 can be used as a cooling medium for cooling the adsorbent in the adsorption chamber 311 in the heat exchanger 320. After the medium from the cold source device 30 flows out of the heat exchanger 320, the medium may flow back to the cold source device 30 to dissipate heat.

When the adsorption refrigeration apparatus 50 includes two adsorbers 300, the inlet ends of the heat exchangers 320 of the two adsorbers 300 may be connected to the outlet end of the liquid cooling device 20 and the outlet end of the cold source device 30 through a first four-way reversing valve 510, where the first four-way reversing valve 510 is configured to communicate the inlet end of the heat exchanger 320 of one of the adsorbers 300 with the outlet end of the liquid cooling device 20 and communicate the inlet end of the heat exchanger 320 of the other adsorber 300 with the inlet end of the cold source device 30. The outlet ends of the heat exchangers 320 of the two adsorbers 300 may be connected to the inlet end of the liquid cooling device 20 and the inlet end of the cold source device 30 through a second four-way reversing valve 520, where the second four-way reversing valve 520 is used to communicate the outlet end of the heat exchanger 320 that communicates with the outlet end of the liquid cooling device 20 with the inlet end of the liquid cooling device 20, and communicate the outlet end of the heat exchanger 320 that communicates with the outlet end of the cold source device 30 with the inlet end of the cold source device 30.

The inlet end of the adsorption cavity 311 is connected with the outlet end of the evaporation cavity 110 through a first valve 610, and the first valve 610 is used for controlling the on-off of a flow path between the inlet end of the adsorption cavity 311 and the outlet end of the evaporation cavity 110. When the adsorber 300 performs adsorption, the first valve 610 may be opened to allow a flow path between the inlet end of the adsorption chamber 311 and the outlet end of the evaporation chamber 110 to communicate, so that the adsorbent flowing out of the outlet end of the evaporation chamber 110 may flow into the adsorption chamber 311 to be adsorbed by the adsorbent. The first valve 610 may be closed to shut off the flow path between the inlet end of the adsorption chamber 311 and the outlet end of the evaporation chamber 110 during desorption of the adsorber 300.

The outlet end of the adsorption cavity 311 is connected to the inlet end of the condensation cavity 210 through a second valve 620, and the second valve 620 is used for controlling the on-off of the flow path between the outlet end of the adsorption cavity 311 and the inlet end of the condensation cavity 210. When the adsorber 300 is desorbed, the second valve 620 may be opened to communicate the flow path between the outlet end of the adsorption chamber 311 and the inlet end of the condensation chamber 210, so that the adsorbent desorbed from the adsorption chamber 311 may flow into the condensation chamber 210 for condensation. The second valve 620 may be closed to shut off the flow path between the outlet end of the adsorption chamber 311 and the inlet end of the condensing chamber 210 during adsorption by the adsorber 300.

When the adsorption refrigeration device 50 includes a plurality of adsorbers 300, the inlet end of the adsorption chamber 311 of each adsorber 300 may be connected to the outlet end of the evaporation chamber 110 by a corresponding first valve 610, and the outlet end of the adsorption chamber 311 of each adsorber 300 may be connected to the inlet end of the condensation chamber 210 by a corresponding second valve 620. So as to achieve alternating adsorption and desorption of the plurality of adsorbers 300.

The flow channel in the heat supply part 120 is isolated from the evaporation cavity 110, and the evaporator 100 is used for exchanging heat between the medium in the heat supply part 120 and the adsorbate in the evaporation cavity 110, and absorbs heat in the medium in the heat supply part 120 when the liquid adsorbate in the evaporation cavity 110 evaporates. The heat supply part 120 has an inlet end and an outlet end, the inlet end of the heat supply part 120 is used for supplying heat to the adsorbate in the evaporation cavity 110 in the heat supply part 120 so that the medium for evaporating the adsorbate in the evaporation cavity 110 flows into the heat supply part 120, and the outlet end of the heat supply part 120 is used for supplying the medium after heat exchange with the adsorbate in the evaporation cavity 110 in the heat supply part 120 to flow out of the heat supply part 120. The evaporator 100 may be manufactured by passing a high-temperature or normal-temperature medium into the heat supply part 120. For example, the evaporator 100 may be made into cold water by supplying normal temperature water or high temperature water into the heat supply part 120.

For example, the heat supply part 120 may include a first heat exchange tube, and a surface of the first heat exchange tube may have first heat exchange fins.

For example, cold water produced by the evaporator 100 may be supplied to a cold source device 30, a cooling device, or other device or devices requiring cold to reduce energy consumption of the data center. Specifically, the outlet end of the heat supply part 120 may communicate with the inlet end of the cold source device 30, so that the low temperature medium made through the heat supply part 120 may be used to radiate heat of the medium flowing back to the cold source device 3030 after absorbing heat. For example, when the cold source device 30 is a cooling tower, the outlet end of the heat supply part 120 may be in communication with a water distributor of the cooling tower, and the low temperature medium made by the heat supply part 120 may flow to the water distributor of the cooling tower.

The flow passage in the cooling unit 220 is isolated from the condensing chamber 210, and the condenser 200 is used to exchange heat between the medium in the cooling unit 220 and the adsorbent in the condensing chamber 210.

The condenser 200 may remove heat from the adsorbate in the condensation chamber 210 by passing a medium having a lower temperature into the cooling member 220 to condense the adsorbate in the condensation chamber 210.

For example, the cooling member 220 may include a second heat exchange tube, and a surface of the second heat exchange tube may have second heat exchange fins.

In some possible embodiments, the outlet end of the cooling member 220 is in communication with the inlet end of the cold source device 30, and the inlet end of the cooling member 220 is connected to the outlet end of the heat exchanger 320, such that the outlet end of the heat exchanger 320 is connected to the inlet end of the cold source device 30 through the cooling member 220.

When the adsorber 300 is desorbed, the third valve 530 may be opened to communicate the inlet end of the first heat exchange component 321 with the outlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20, so that the cooling liquid flowing out of the liquid cooling apparatus 20 may flow into the first heat exchange component 321 to supply heat to the adsorbate in the adsorption cavity 311. When the adsorber 300 performs adsorption, the third valve 530 may be closed to block the flow path between the inlet end of the first heat exchange assembly 321 and the outlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20, so that the cooling liquid flowing out of the liquid cooling apparatus 20 cannot flow into the first heat exchange assembly 321, and the influence of the cooling liquid flowing out of the liquid cooling apparatus 20 flowing into the first heat exchange assembly 321 on the adsorption of the adsorbent in the adsorption cavity 311 is avoided.

When the adsorber 300 performs adsorption, the fourth valve 540 may be opened to communicate a flow path between the inlet end of the second heat exchange assembly 322 and the outlet end of the cold source device 30, so that the medium flowing out of the cold source device 30 may flow into the second heat exchange assembly 322 to cool the adsorbent in the adsorption cavity 311. When the adsorber 300 performs desorption, the fourth valve 540 may be closed, so that the flow path between the inlet end of the second heat exchange assembly 322 and the outlet end of the cold source device 30 is blocked, and the medium flowing out of the cold source device 30 cannot flow into the second heat exchange assembly 322, so as to avoid the influence of the medium flowing out of the cold source device 30 flowing into the second heat exchange assembly 322 on the desorption of the adsorbent in the adsorption cavity 311.

When the adsorber 300 is desorbed, the fifth valve 550 may be opened to communicate the outlet end of the first heat exchange component 321 with the inlet end of the liquid cooling device 20, so that the cooling liquid from the liquid cooling device 20 may flow back to the liquid cooling device 20 after exchanging heat with the adsorbate in the adsorption cavity 311 in the first heat exchange component 321. When the adsorber 300 performs adsorption, the fifth valve 550 may be closed to block the flow path between the outlet end of the first heat exchange assembly 321 and the inlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20, so that the cooling liquid is not easy to flow into the first heat exchange assembly 321 from the outlet end of the first heat exchange assembly 321, and further the adsorption of the adsorbate in the adsorption cavity 311 is affected.

The outlet end of the second heat exchange assembly 322 may be connected to the inlet end of the cold source device 30 through a sixth valve 560, and the sixth valve 560 is used to control the on-off of the flow path between the outlet end of the second heat exchange assembly 322 and the inlet end of the cold source device 30. When the adsorber 300 performs adsorption, the sixth valve 560 may be opened to communicate the flow path between the outlet end of the second heat exchange assembly 322 and the inlet end of the cold source device 30, so that the medium from the cold source device 30 may flow back to the cold source device 30 after exchanging heat with the adsorbate in the adsorption cavity 311 in the second heat exchange assembly 322. When the adsorber 300 performs desorption, the sixth valve 560 may be closed, so that the flow path between the outlet end of the second heat exchange component 322 and the inlet end of the cold source device 30 is blocked, and the medium is not easy to flow into the second heat exchange component 322 from the outlet end of the second heat exchange component 322, so as to affect the desorption of the adsorbate in the adsorption cavity 311.

In this way, when the adsorption device 300 alternately performs desorption and adsorption, the cooling liquid from the liquid cooling device 20 flows through the first heat exchange assembly 321 to supply heat to the adsorbate in the adsorption cavity 311, and the medium from the cold source device 30 flows through the second heat exchange assembly 322 to supply cold to the adsorbate in the adsorption cavity 311, so that the cooling liquid from the liquid cooling device 20 and the medium from the cold source device 30 are not easy to pollute each other.
