SIDE-COOLED MODULAR DATA CENTER
A modular data center includes a cooling module with a cooling module enclosure and a first cooling unit housed within the cooling module enclosure. The cooling module enclosure includes a first interface side wall with a first cooling module supply opening that receives a first portion of cooling air from the first cooling unit. The center further includes a data module with a data module enclosure for housing data equipment. The data module enclosure includes a second interface side wall with a first data module supply opening that receives the first portion of cooling air from the first cooling module supply opening such that the first portion of cooling air flows into the data module enclosure and removes heat from the data equipment.
Composite Cooling System and Data Center
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.

ASSISTANCE APPARATUS, ASSISTANCE METHOD, AND PROGRAM
An assistance apparatus according to the disclosure generates monitor area data on the basis of dimension data of rack rows that are each constituted by a plurality of racks and that are arranged in a first direction in a three-dimensional space, the dimension data including the length of each rack row in the first direction and the height thereof in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, interval data that includes an interval, in a third direction, between the rack rows adjacent to each other in the third direction, the third direction being perpendicular to the first and second directions, field-of-view angle data that includes the field-of-view angle of each temperature sensor, and temperature sensor position data that indicates certain temperature sensor positions; and includes a display control unit that displays monitor coverage information on a display device on the basis of the monitor area data.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR THERMAL MANAGEMENT IN UTILITY SCALE POWER INVERTERS
A power electronics system comprising a environmentally sealed electronics compartment for housing power electronics equipment is provided. The system includes a plenum within the sealed electronic compartment for circulating air. A first liquid cooling loop is configured to cool air flowing through the plenum. A second liquid cooling loop configured to directly cool the power electronics equipment. The system includes a controller configured to independently control the flow rate of the first liquid cooling loop and the second liquid cooling loop.
Mobile platform thermal management systems and methods
A system for cooling a plurality of electrical equipment components inside a mobile platform may include at least one manifold and a plurality of flexible tubing ducts. The manifold may have an outlet, and a plurality of inlet tubing connections in fluid communication with the outlet. The outlet may be coupled to an interface of a cooling system of the platform by exhaust tubing. Each of the flexible tubing ducts may have a proximal end and a distal end. Each proximal end may be selectively connectable to the inlet tubing connections. Each distal end may have an air intake port that is alternatively positionable in two or more thermal dissipation zones of the electrical equipment components for permitting an exhaust profile inside the platform to the interface to be reconfigured based at least in part on respective positions of the electrical equipment components.
Closed cold pool system
A closed cold pool system is disclosed. The closed cold pool system may include a first closing assembly, a cabinet assembly and a second closing assembly. The first closing assembly is provided on a front side of the cabinet assembly to form a first closed cold aisle, and the second closing assembly is provided on a rear side of the cabinet assembly to form a second closed cold aisle. The cabinet assembly may include a power distribution cabinet, an in-row air conditioner and a main device unit that are provided side by side. The in-row air conditioner may include a front air supply opening, a rear air supply opening and a top air return opening. The front air supply opening is communicated with the first closed cold aisle, and the rear air supply opening is communicated with the second closed cold aisle.
Ventilation control apparatus and method
An environmental control system for a telecom shelter integrates with a native HVAC system for exchanging interior air in a conditioned space in a machine room, telecom enclosure, or other closed machine environment by forcing or directing cooler outside air to replace interior air without active refrigeration by the native HVAC system. Primary cooling and heating of the conditioned space in the enclosure is performed by an exchange system and control logic that identifies, based on sensory input, when outside air exchange is more efficient than native AC (Air Conditioner) operation. The native AC system is suppressed or inhibited, and primary environmental control performed by fan driven exchange of outside air with air in the enclosure. Sensors and timers identify appropriate periods to defer control to the native AC system for cooling demand in excess of outside air exchange capability, and also identify ongoing suppression, or “takeback” of cooling control from the native system when erroneous, erratic or mistaken operation results in excessive or insufficient cooling, resulting from such factors as equipment failure, operator error, and environmental/disaster occurrences.
Highly Integrated Mobile Energy Storage System
A highly integrated mobile energy storage system is provided, which includes a container and battery racks. The battery racks are arranged in two rows along a length direction of the container, and the two rows of the battery racks are arranged back to back. For each of the two rows of battery racks, a maintenance door is arranged at a wall of the container close to the row of battery racks. In a case that a battery rack needs to be maintained, it is just required to open the maintenance door to maintain the battery rack. Since the two rows of battery racks are arranged back to back, no maintenance passage is required, thereby reducing a floor space along a width direction of the container, thus reducing the floor space of the system.
