Background

At present, the energy efficiency indexes of some old data centers do not meet the national standard, and the energy efficiency indexes are mainly because the air flow organization in the data centers is unscientific and cold channels or hot channels in cabinets are not closed, so that the heat dissipation efficiency is low, and the energy consumption ratio of refrigeration air conditioners is too large. However, the scale, the cabinet distribution mode and the like of some existing old data centers are greatly different, so that the field conditions cannot meet the standardized transformation, and the cost is too high if the data centers are transformed in a large scale.

Therefore, currently, only a series of modifications can be made to the cabinet, so that the heat generated by the cabinet can be rapidly dissipated. And the existing mature scheme for modifying the local hot spot of the cabinet in the market is divided into two schemes.

The other is to install an air exhaust unit additionally, and the air exhaust unit is installed on the upper part of the back plate additionally, so that hot air in the cabinet is extracted, air flow is reorganized, and the air flow is guided into a smoke exhaust pipeline, thereby the cold and hot channels are divided, and the purpose of improving the heat dissipation efficiency is achieved.

However, both the air supply unit and the air exhaust unit have problems. For the modification scheme of the additionally arranged air supply unit, the overall airflow organization of the machine room is influenced, so that the problem of local hot spots is solved, and the overall airflow organization of the machine room is disturbed, so that the overall heat dissipation effect is influenced. For the transformation scheme of installing the air exhaust unit additionally, the air exhaust unit is installed additionally on the back door of the cabinet in a cabinet back plate form, and the air exhaust unit has larger self weight, so the transformation scheme of installing the air exhaust unit additionally can demand the bearing capacity of the cabinet, and the common cabinet can hardly meet the bearing requirement. In addition, for two transformation schemes, the air supply unit and the air exhaust unit need to be additionally distributed, so that the transformation process difficulty is increased, and the increase of energy consumption can be brought.

Therefore, by using the transformation scheme, the heat dissipation efficiency of the cabinet cannot be effectively improved, so that the energy consumption in the data center is reduced.

The embodiment of the utility model provides a cabinet backplate passive heat abstractor and rack, this backplate passive heat abstractor set up on rack 1 for dispel the heat to rack 1, with the temperature that reduces rack 1.

Referring to fig. 1, the back panel passive heat dissipation device may include a back panel 2, a heat dissipation channel, and a flow guiding element, where the back panel 2 is disposed at the back of the cabinet 1, and the back panel 2 is a closed plate structure, and after being mounted at the back of the cabinet 1, the back of the cabinet 1 may be closed, so that the back panel 2 and the back of the cabinet 1 form a space.

In addition, the heat dissipation channel is arranged at the top of the cabinet 1 and communicated with the space. The flow guide element is arranged in the space and is used for guiding the airflow which is led to the back plate 2 to the direction of the heat dissipation channel.

Because the cabinet 1 is internally provided with the fan, the cabinet 1 is cooled to a certain degree by the fan, and when the fan operates, the fan can form rear air outlet towards the back of the cabinet 1, when the airflow blowing towards the back plate 2 reaches the position of the flow guide element, the flow guide element can change the flow direction of the airflow, so that the airflow flows towards the heat dissipation channel, and the airflow flows out from the position of the heat dissipation channel, thereby forming the airflow organization of the cabinet 1 which discharges the air backwards and discharges the air upwards. Through this kind of mode, can organize the air current again to the inside of rack 1 to make the cold and hot passageway in the rack 1 cut apart, make the quick emission of heat of rack 1, improved the radiating efficiency, reduce the energy resource consumption of rack 1.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the flow guiding element is an air deflector 3, the air deflector 3 has an arc shape, and the air deflector 3 has a first end 31 and a second end 32, wherein the first end 31 faces the front of the cabinet 1, i.e. the direction away from the back panel 2, and the second end 32 faces the direction of the heat dissipation channel. In this way, after having blown the air flow towards the air deflector 3, the air flow can enter from the first end 31 of the air deflector 3 and move along the air deflector 3 and then exit from the second end 32 of the air deflector 3, while due to the second end 32 of the air deflector 3 facing the direction of the heat dissipation channel, the air flow finally moves towards the direction of the heat dissipation channel and is discharged from the heat dissipation channel.

The air guide plate 3 may have other shapes as long as the air flow blown toward the back plate 2 can be guided in the direction of the heat dissipation path. If the air deflector 3 is designed as an inclined plane, it can be realized that the air flow blowing towards the back plate 2 is directed towards the heat dissipation channel.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the air deflector 3 has a plurality of air deflectors 3, and the plurality of air deflectors 3 are sequentially spaced from bottom to top in the space formed by the back panel 2 and the cabinet 1.

Therefore, each air deflector 3 can be set in a plurality of staggered arrangements in the space formed by the back panel 2 and the cabinet 1, as long as the air deflector 3 above can not block the air deflector 3 below from guiding the air to the heat dissipation channel, and the air deflector can guide the air blown to the back panel 2 to the heat dissipation channel.

It should be further noted that the number of the air deflectors 3 can be set according to the actual situation of the cabinet 1, if the cabinet 1 belongs to the small cabinet 1, the number of the air deflectors 3 can be relatively reduced, and if the cabinet 1 is large, the number of the air deflectors 3 can be relatively increased, so as to ensure the good heat dissipation effect. In addition, the load-bearing capacity of the cabinet 1 and other conditions need to be judged, so that the number of the air deflectors 3 is determined.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the backplane passive heat sink further comprises a positioning element for fixing the air deflectors 3 in the space formed by the backplane 2 and the cabinet 1, so that each air deflector 3 can be fixed to a designated position by using the positioning element.
