Description

Outdoor edge server

Technical Field

A Server (Server) is a high-performance computer that provides various services in a network environment. Its primary functions include receiving, processing and responding to requests from clients, and providing files, databases, applications and communications services to network users.

Server cooling is a critical issue in data centers and high performance computing environments. With the improvement of server performance and the increase of integration level, the heat dissipation requirement is also increasing. Two heat dissipation modes of air cooling heat dissipation and liquid cooling heat dissipation mainly exist today. Air cooling heat dissipation is relatively low in cost and mature in technology, but air cooling heat dissipation efficiency is limited, and is not suitable for being particularly used in a high-density server environment or a case needing complete sealing, and liquid cooling heat dissipation absorbs and transfers heat through a liquid medium (such as water or cooling liquid), wherein cold plate type liquid cooling and immersed liquid cooling are two common liquid cooling schemes.

With the development of technologies such as the internet of things, 5G, intelligent transportation and the like, edge computing is becoming an important means for processing massive data and reducing network delay. Edge servers, as core devices for edge computing, need to be deployed in a variety of outdoor environments. However, factors such as high temperature, dust and humidity in the outdoor environment pose serious challenges to the stable operation of the server. The existing air cooling heat dissipation system has low heat dissipation efficiency in a high-temperature environment, and cannot meet the requirement of a sealing protection level, while the traditional liquid cooling heat dissipation system has large volume and inconvenient deployment.
