Several transportable datacenters are described. The transportable datacenters include transport systems allowing them to be transported between an assembly location and an operating location. The transportable datacenters also include a ventilation system for cooling processors positioned in racks in the datacenters. The ventilation system draws cold air from the environment, through processor bays containing the processors and then exhausts the air back to the environment.

Systems and methods for cooling a mobile datacenter are disclosed. In at least one embodiment, a cooling loop is located on a mobile unit and includes at least one cold plate within a pod on a mobile unit and includes a dry cooler external to a pod on a mobile unit so as to enable coolant to be provided to a cold plate and to enable such coolant to be provided to a dry cooler for removal of heat from at least one computing device to an ambient environment.

According to one embodiment, a data center air cooling system includes a first information technology (IT) room and a second IT room, each with electronic racks with one or more pieces of IT equipment. The system includes an air cooling unit that provides cooling air into an air chamber, which supplies the cooling air to the first IT room. The system includes an air duct system that supplies the cooling air from the air chamber to the second IT room and returns warmed air from the first IT room and the second IT room to the air cooling unit. The system includes several louvers that are each arranged to open and close independently and in different combinational modes to create several airflow management modes for cooling pieces of IT equipment in the first IT room, in the second IT room, or a combination thereof.

The present invention includes a lateral support member for a server computer constructed to permit advantageous airflow. The present invention can be operated to shunt organized airflow into multiple computer cases and/or organized airflow from multiple computer cases to a dedicated heat reservoir.

A heat-radiation apparatus includes a housing and a plurality of heat-radiation modules which are aligned in a vertically-slanted manner with a predetermined inclination angle to a vertical line in the housing. A plurality of heat-radiation modules includes a plurality of heat exchangers which is aligned together in parallel and equipped with a plurality of fans to parallelize axial lines thereof with each other. In a manufacturing method of the heat-radiation apparatus, the number of heat-radiation modules is adjusted according to a radiation amount which is determined in advance.

Described herein is an air handling unit that includes canopies for compressor fans and exhaust fans located on a top thereof, which canopies provide for noise abatement and a canopy to assist in keeping precipitation out. The canopies further include louvers that can be controlled to provide for even further noise abatement and precipitation control.

A software-defined infrastructure can identify and remediate an airflow deficiency scenario on a rack device. A rack device manager can be configured to discover rack devices and create a representation of their physical locations. The rack device manager can also be configured to periodically retrieve airflow metrics of the rack devices to calculate an estimated airflow for each rack device. The rack device manager can use the estimated airflows and the airflow metrics to generate a rack device classifier for each rack device. Using these rack device classifiers, the rack device manager can detect when rack devices are experiencing airflow deficiencies and attempt to automatically remediate such deficiencies.

This invention describes the use of pre-packaged air shipping containers for delivery of edge data center equipment. The containers are capable of rapid deployment and positioning at the edge data center delivery site to minimize time between the order of equipment and deployment of a functioning edge data center. The containers allow for easy access, and rapid repair/replacement of modular edge data center equipment.

A modular data center system includes an upper module including a roller assembly attached to a frame of the upper module, the roller assembly configured to engage at least a portion of a rail assembly attached to a structure of a data center building; and a lower module attachable to the upper module and configured to suspend above a floor of a human-occupiable workspace of the data center that supports a plurality of racks including a plurality of heat-generating electronic devices, the lower module including a power support assembly configured to provide electrical power to the plurality of heat-generating electronic devices.

A heat exchange system includes a heat-absorbing substance such as Liquid Natural Gas (LNG), a heat dissipation apparatus, a water storage tank, a heat exchanger, and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is coupled between the LNG and the water storage tank. The heat exchanger is coupled between the heat dissipation apparatus and the water storage tank. The heat exchanger transfers heat of the heat dissipation apparatus to water of the water storage tank to lose heat to the heat exchanger, and the heat exchanger transfers heat of the water to the LNG.
