A cooling assembly for cooling server racks includes a server rack enclosure sub-assembly that includes at least one panel member defining a volume for receiving one or more server racks having a front portion and a rear portion, at least one of the panel members is a rear panel member; at least one frame member defines an opening for receiving the rear portion of the server racks to form a hot space between the rear panel member and the combination of the frame member and the rear portion of the server racks; a cooling sub-assembly disposed in thermal communication with the hot space to cool at least one server supported in the server rack and including a chassis receiving at least one heat exchange member for exchanging heat between a refrigerant fluid flowing through the heat exchange member and fluid flowing through the hot space heated by the server.

Disclosed is a server rack system within an enclosed building and a process for directing air through a server facility. Air is channeled within a server rack assembly and then through a closed loop back again into the server rack assembly. Impediments may control the degree of airflow availability.

Data center mechanical infrastructure is incrementally deployed and commissioned to support incremental changes in computing capacity in a data center while mitigating interaction between infrastructure being commissioned and installed computer systems. Incremental mechanical infrastructure commissioning can be concurrent with incremental electrical infrastructure commissioning and includes operating mechanical infrastructure to remove heat generated as a result of operating electrical infrastructure to support simulated electrical loads as part of electrical infrastructure commissioning. Incremental mechanical infrastructure deployment can be based on the power support capacity provided by incrementally deployed electrical infrastructure. Incremental infrastructure deployment can include partitioning a space in which incremental mechanical infrastructure is configured to provide cooling, so that heat generation and removal in the space, based on commissioning the incremental mechanical infrastructure, is isolated electrical and cooling support provided to electrical loads located in a remainder of the data center.

A data center provides containment walls of an operation technology (OT) interior compartment, such as a meet me room, positioned between cold and hot aisles in an information technology (IT compartment. The OT interior compartment limits air flow so that IT components outside of the OT interior compartment receive sufficient supply air for moderating or cooling a temperature of the IT components. Pressure differential is measured on an exterior and interior of door(s) to the OT interior compartment. Air flow regulation device(s) are positioned in a supply air passage to the OT interior compartment and/or in a return air passage out of the OT interior compartment are controlled to limit the pressure differential between an exterior and interior of the containment wall. Limiting the pressure differential ensures that door(s) facing the cold aisle are not difficult to open and door(s) facing the hot aisle are not difficult to close.

A cryptocurrency mining furnace is provided. The cryptocurrency mining furnace comprises a furnace housing having an air flow path extending from a housing air inlet downstream to a housing air outlet; and at least three separate mining computers. Each mining computer is positioned in the furnace housing in the air flow path upstream of the housing air outlet and includes at least one cryptocurrency mining board. The cryptocurrency mining furnace also comprises a transformer positioned in the furnace housing upstream of the mining computers and downstream of the housing air inlet, the transformer electrically connected to each of the mining computers to power each of the mining computers; and a principal fan positioned in the furnace housing in the air flow path downstream of the transformer and upstream of the mining computers to induce air flow along the air flow path through the transformer and each of the mining computers.

A device may monitor an intake temperature of an air flow through an air intake of a building that includes a ventilation system for temperature control of a first region of the building, a liquid cooling system for temperature control of equipment that is within a second region of the building, and a heat exchanger that is thermally coupled to the ventilation system and the liquid cooling system. The device may determine that the intake temperature is below a threshold temperature. The device may control the ventilation system to cause the air flow to cool a water flow of the liquid cooling system via the heat exchanger to produce a cooled water flow. The device may control the liquid cooling system to cause the cooled water flow of the liquid cooling system to bypass a chiller system of the liquid cooling system to reduce power consumption by the chiller system.

A module modular containment system for isolating and cooling racks of information handling systems in a facility comprises a plurality of vertical panels coupled to a top panel to isolate the rack from room air and a heat exchanger coupled to a facility water feed that supplies water at a water temperature greater than the room air temperature. Heated air exiting the rack passes through the heat exchanger to transfer heat to the water such that the air is cooled to the first air temperature. An air conditioning system and the modular containment system can operate independently to cool the room air to a lower air temperature for the comfort of people in the facility and to cool information handling systems based on operating parameters of the information handling systems.

Example heating and cooling systems for edge data centers are disclosed herein. A system disclosed herein includes a subterranean vault to be disposed at least partially below ground level an of environment, an edge data center in the subterranean vault, and a geothermal heat pump system to regulate a temperature of ambient air in the subterranean vault.

This application provides a composite cooling system. The composite cooling system includes an indoor air duct and an outdoor air duct that are independent of each other. The indoor air duct and the outdoor air duct intersect in a heat exchange area of the composite cooling system. A first-stage heat exchanger core, a second-stage heat exchanger core, and a first side air duct are disposed in the heat exchange area. The heat exchange area is constructed as a part of the outdoor air duct. The first-stage heat exchanger core, the first side air duct, and the second-stage heat exchanger core are sequentially arranged along a flow direction of the outdoor air duct. An inner cavity of the first-stage heat exchanger core and an inner cavity of the second-stage heat exchanger core each are further constructed as a part of the indoor air duct.

Systems and methods for cooling a datacenter are disclosed. In at least one embodiment, a peripheral cooling unit (PCU) is to be located at a periphery of a datacenter, so that it can suction air from a hot aisle that is between at least two rows of racks and can cool at least one part of such air using a primary coolant, with at least one part of cooled air to be circulated to such racks, and with a primary coolant to cool secondary coolant that is to be distributed to at least one cold plate.
