Description

  The present invention provides a computer room air-conditioning blower system in which an underfloor air-conditioning system is provided and a rack for accommodating computers, and the hot air remaining in the upper part of the indoor space is moved to the air-conditioner suction port The present invention relates to an exhaust heat transfer device system, and an air conditioning system including the air conditioning blowing device system and the exhaust heat transfer device system.

  FIG. 11 is a perspective view of a conventional server room employing an underfloor air conditioning system as an air conditioning system. In a large-scale server room where a large number of large computers and servers are installed, there are many cases where a double-structure floor 11 is employed so that wiring 25 to server equipment can be performed. In a server room having such a double structure floor 11, an air supply chamber 23 is formed under the floor, cold air from the air conditioner 21 is supplied to the air supply chamber 23, and this cold air is provided on the floor surface. The room is air-conditioned (cooled) by being discharged into the indoor space 15 through a large number of small air outlets 11a, and the hot air generated from the server rack 17 is naturally flowed along the ceiling 13 to the air inlet 21a of the air conditioner 21. Many return so-called underfloor air-conditioning systems.

  In a server room that employs such an underfloor air conditioning system, the number of wirings to the server equipment routed into the air supply chamber 23 increases due to the progress of highly integrated systems. As a result of stacking, the flow path in the air supply chamber is narrowed, the cold air from the air conditioner is shut off, and the cold air cannot be blown out uniformly from the floor surface of the entire server room as expected at the time of building design Has occurred. In such a case, generally, in the vicinity of the air conditioner 21, the cool air blows out better than the air outlets on the floor surface, so that the room temperature becomes low. On the other hand, when leaving the air conditioner 21, the cold air from the floor air outlets becomes stagnant and the temperature becomes high. turn into.

  As another problem, due to an increase in the amount of heat generated by server equipment in recent years, it is not sufficient to simply blow out cold air from the floor, and local concentration of heat and uneven distribution of heat load occur in some areas of the room. There are also problems.

  Yet another problem is that when hot air is exhausted from the rack on which the server is mounted, an air flow upward from the top of the rack is strongly blown, but this air current disturbs the natural flow of hot air along the server room ceiling. The operation of returning to the air inlet of the air conditioner may not be performed satisfactorily. Conventionally, such a problem has been addressed by lowering the set temperature of the air conditioner or increasing the number of air conditioners.

  As another countermeasure, it has been proposed to suppress a short circuit in which hot air returns directly to the server by providing a guide for guiding the hot air discharged from the server to the air inlet of the air conditioner (see, for example, Patent Document 1). ). As a countermeasure against this short circuit, there is also a proposal to suppress by providing an air curtain generating unit on the upper surface of the rack (for example, see Patent Document 2).

  As another countermeasure, there is also a proposal for reducing local concentration and uneven thermal load by directly blowing cool air in an air supply chamber to a high-temperature part in a room using a duct (see, for example, Patent Document 3). . Furthermore, as an air conditioning system using a duct, a chamber that distributes the cold air supplied from the air conditioning unit to a plurality of air outlets is provided, and a blower motor damper that can change the air volume from the air outlets is provided in this chamber. A method has been proposed in which environmental information such as the above is detected and controlled to finely air-condition each area (see, for example, Patent Document 4).

  Furthermore, as another technique, a blowout device that blows air toward the indoor high-temperature part is provided, and by ensuring the amount of air blown to the indoor high-temperature part, a predetermined indoor space can be obtained without relying on means such as direct air cooling by duct piping. There is also a proposal to suppress the temperature rise.

  However, in the air conditioning system proposed in Patent Document 1, hot air is guided by a guide that covers the entire server group and sucks hot air discharged from each server and guides it to the air inlet of the air conditioner. Therefore, it is necessary to align the surfaces where the exhaust vents are formed on the server side (equal height), and it is difficult to install in a server room where servers of various specifications are mixed, and installation of large-scale guides is required. Since it is necessary, there is a problem that the equipment cost is high.

  Moreover, in the conventional air conditioning system proposed in Patent Document 2, when the exhaust heat from the server staying near the ceiling of the server room is guided to the air inlet of the air conditioner, it is guided only by the suction force of the air conditioner. Therefore, there is a problem that the room temperature rises around the ceiling.

  Furthermore, in the method of directly supplying the cool air in the supply chamber of Patent Document 3 to the indoor high temperature section using the duct, the cool air can be surely blown to the equipment that generates heat, and the local concentration and heat load in the server room can be obtained. While uneven distribution can be reduced, since duct piping is required for each device, there is a problem that equipment costs are required. Moreover, since this apparatus alone cannot return the hot air from the server staying near the top of the server room to the air conditioner suction port, there is a problem that the thermal environment in the upper part of the room may not be improved.

  Moreover, in the system which detects environmental information, such as the temperature of an air-conditioning area proposed by patent document 4, and controls the amount of cold air supplied from an air-conditioning unit from several blower outlets which can control air volume, and performs air conditioning Although individual control for each area is possible, there is a problem that equipment cost is required because duct piping is required for each device. In addition, if this system is used to control the air conditioning from the underfloor air-conditioning system under floor air conditioning system, it is difficult to individually control the damper because there are blowout holes in the entire floor surface. When a blower that controls the rotational speed by detecting the static pressure signal and the passing wind speed is installed on the air conditioning unit side, the static pressure at all outlets will increase, so individual control for each area There is a problem that cannot be done.

  Furthermore, in the method in which each blowing device, which is the last mentioned method, detects the temperature and operates, the air conditioning balance of the entire room is broken, and the temperature in the area where the blowing device is not installed may rise. There are problems such as that there is a problem, and that this blowout device alone is insufficient to return the hot air staying near the top of the server room to the air inlet of the air conditioner, so that the thermal environment in the upper part of the room cannot be improved.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is not necessary to lower the set temperature of the air conditioner more than necessary, and it is blown into the indoor space without the need for equipment such as duct piping.

Embodiment 4 FIG.
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a server room employing the air conditioning system of Embodiment 4 of the exhaust heat transfer apparatus system according to the present invention. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, an exhaust heat transfer device 50 is provided above the indoor space 15 that is air-conditioned by the air conditioner 21. The exhaust heat transfer device 50 moves the hot air staying near the ceiling 13 to the suction port 21 a of the air conditioner 21.

  In the server room, the rack 17 on which the server is mounted exhausts the internal hot air upward or backward in order to lower the temperature in the rack. In the present embodiment, an operation of efficiently returning the hot air discharged from the rack 17 to the suction port 21a of the air conditioner 21 is performed. The exhaust heat transfer device 50 is installed on the ceiling 13 at a position away from the air conditioner 21 among the ceilings 13 of the passage portion surrounded by the rack groups so as to be sandwiched between adjacent rack group rows.

  If the installation height of the exhaust heat transfer device 50 is installed 0.5 m above the upper surface of the rack 17, the temperature rise near the rack 17 can be most effectively suppressed. At this time, the air flow F generated by the exhaust heat transfer device 50 is formed from the region where the hot air stays in the upper part of the passage space toward the suction port 21a of the air conditioner 21. Then, the blowout wind speed is adjusted so that the airflow wind speed in the vicinity of the suction port 21a of the air conditioner 21 that is the destination is 0.5 m / s to 1.0 m / s in a state where there is no influence of disturbance.

  If the airflow at the destination is weak, one or more airflows are provided between the first exhaust heat transfer device 50 provided at a position away from the air conditioner 21 and the suction port 21a of the air conditioner 21. A stand exhaust heat transfer device 50 is installed so that airflow of a predetermined strength can be formed.

  In this way, by installing the exhaust heat transfer device 50 in the vicinity of the ceiling 13 near the rack 17 in a passage where the influence of the exhaust heat flow from the rack 17 is small, the air remaining in the vicinity of the rack 17 is removed from the air conditioner. It is possible to efficiently return to the 21 suction ports 21a. As a result, it is possible to suppress a shortcut in which hot air flows back to the server, and it is also possible to suppress a short circuit of cool air in which the cool air of the air conditioner 21 returns directly to the air conditioner 21. Driving is possible.

Embodiment 5. FIG.
In addition to the exhaust heat transfer device system of the fourth embodiment, the exhaust heat transfer device system of the present embodiment includes a temperature detection unit (not shown) that is provided at a position away from the air conditioner 21 and detects the temperature, and this temperature. A control device (transport control unit) that performs ON-OFF control of the exhaust heat transport device 50 based on the output of the detection unit is provided. The control device (conveyance control unit) is one or a plurality of waste heat transfer devices installed in an arbitrary target area only when the temperature measured by the temperature detection unit becomes a certain value or more. 50 operations are performed. This is because the air conditioner 21 is not in operation, but when the temperature measured by the temperature detector is above a certain level, it is determined that the air-conditioning air current has short-circuited in the vicinity where the air conditioner 21 is installed. In addition, although the air conditioner 21 is operating, if the temperature measured by the temperature detection unit is equal to or higher than a certain level, it can be determined that the heat generated from the rack 17 on which the server is mounted has increased. On the other hand, by returning the hot air from the rack 17 on which the server is mounted to the suction port 21a of the air conditioner 21, the air conditioning efficiency is improved. In this way, it is possible to operate more efficiently by determining the air conditioning status from the indoor temperature and operating the exhaust heat transfer device 50 accordingly.

I am trying to carry it. Although the hot air inside the rack 17 is blown upward from the upper part of the rack 17 on which the server is mounted, the exhaust heat transfer device 50B is arranged at regular intervals so as to overcome this blown hot air. The hot air staying with the ceiling is forcibly returned to the air inlet 21a of the air conditioner 21. The exhaust heat transfer device 50B may be attached after the rack 17 is installed in the server room, or may be installed in the rack 17 when the rack is manufactured and installed in the server room as a rack with an exhaust heat transfer device.
