A method of controlling a direct evaporative cooling unit includes predicting water consumption and energy consumption of the direct evaporative cooling unit based on possible supply air temperatures of the direct evaporative cooling unit, selecting a target supply air temperature based on an optimization of an objective function, the objective function comprising the water consumption and energy consumption, and controlling the direct evaporative cooling unit in accordance with the target supply air temperature.

Direct evaporative cooling system for data center with fan and water optimization

An immersion cooling system includes an electronic component, a thermally conductive dielectric liquid, and a tank defining a tank interior configured to receive the electronic component and the thermally conductive dielectric liquid for cooling the electronic component. The immersion cooling system also includes a wall positioned external to the tank to coordinate with the tank to define an overflow gap extending between the tank and the wall. The overflow gap is configured to receive an overflow of the thermally conductive dielectric liquid from the tank interior.

An air conditioner includes an air flow path configured to direct an air flow in a direction. The air conditioner also includes an evaporative cooling membrane panel disposed within the air flow path and including a face disposed at an oblique angle relative to the direction. The face is defined by microporous fibers of the evaporative cooling membrane panel. Each microporous fiber is configured to receive liquid in a fluid flow path of the microporous fiber such that the air flow over the microporous fiber generates a vapor. Each microporous fiber is also configured to release the vapor into the air flow via pores of the microporous fiber.

Membrane-contactor-based air conditioner

A liquid immersion cooling system includes a tank defining a tank interior configured to receive electronic components (e.g., servers) and a thermally conductive dielectric liquid to cool the electronic components. The liquid immersion cooling system also includes a power shelf external to the tank interior, where the power shelf includes a converter configured to receive an alternating current (AC) power supply and convert the AC power supply to a direct current (DC) power supply. The liquid immersion cooling system also includes a DC bus configured to route the DC power supply from the power shelf, into the tank interior, and to the electronic components.

An air conditioning system includes one or more evaporative cooling units. For example, an evaporative cooling unit of the air conditioning system includes a first V-shaped portion of a winding of microporous hollow fibers that are configured to receive a liquid, and a second V-shaped portion of the winding of microporous hollow fibers that are configured to receive the liquid, where the second V-shaped portion is coupled to the first V-shaped portion, and an internal cavity is disposed between the first V-shaped portion and the second V-shaped portion.

Shape of an evaporative cooling unit

An air conditioning system includes evaporative cooling units, each evaporative cooling unit including a first V-shaped portion of a winding of microporous hollow fibers that are configured to receive a liquid, and a second V-shaped portion of the winding of microporous hollow fibers that are configured to receive the liquid, where the second V-shaped portion is coupled to the first V-shaped portion, and an internal cavity is disposed between the first V-shaped portion and the second V-shaped portion. The air conditioning system also includes a plumbing assembly configured to supply the liquid to the plurality of evaporative cooling units. The air conditioning system also includes a controller configured to control the plumbing assembly to change a flow rate of the liquid, or to block the liquid from at least one evaporative cooling unit of the plurality of evaporative cooling units.
