A server for wisdom high-speed railway data center
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of electronic communication equipment, and particularly relates to a server for an intelligent high-speed rail data center.
Background
The high-speed rail is short for the electrified high-speed railway, and the running speed of a locomotive in the railway system can reach more than 200 km/h. The running speed of the high-speed rail is very fast, so the safety is the problem which is considered by people primarily, the environment needs to be monitored in real time in the running process of the high-speed rail, and the stable running of a railway system is ensured by adjusting according to environmental factors and the running condition of a locomotive. A large amount of data needs to be processed in the running process of the high-speed railway, so the server of the high-speed railway control center has relatively high operation performance; meanwhile, the safety and stability of the data center are guaranteed, and faults are avoided.
The server is a device which bears computing services, responds to service requests and has the capability of guaranteeing the services. The server is constructed to include a processor, a hard disk, a memory, a system bus, etc., similar to a general-purpose computer architecture, but requires high processing power, stability, reliability, security, scalability, manageability, etc., due to the need to provide highly reliable services. In the operation process of the server, a large amount of heat is generated by the chip and the parts, the temperature of the chip is increased due to the heat, the performance of the chip is reduced due to high temperature, and the service life of the server is seriously reduced even. Therefore, how to effectively dissipate heat of the device becomes an important measure for improving service performance and safety.
The conventional server heat dissipation system comprises air cooling heat dissipation and liquid cooling heat dissipation, and the air cooling heat dissipation takes away heat locally generated by equipment in a mode that a fan rotates to increase air convection, so that the heat dissipation and cooling effects are achieved. But in the place that equipment density is higher, the space is narrow and small, the effect of this kind of heat dissipation mode can greatly reduced. The liquid cooling heat dissipation is to replace the heat dissipation fins in the air cooling heat dissipation device with heat pipes, then fill the heat conduction medium in the heat pipes, and make the heat conduction medium flow through the circulating pump, thereby achieving the effects of absorbing heat and increasing the heat dissipation area. However, the heat dissipation method has the safety risks of heat conducting medium leakage, equipment pollution or damage, and the daily maintenance cost is higher, so that the heat dissipation method is less applied to the conventional server equipment.
Based on the above contents, it can be found that the stability, safety and stability of air-cooled heat dissipation are high, but the noise is high during working, the heat dissipation efficiency is relatively low, and the application scene is limited; the radiating efficiency of liquid cooling is higher, can be applied to the narrow and small place in space, but the security is lower. If a novel heat dissipation system can be developed, the defects of the heat dissipation mode are overcome, and the operational performance and the safety of the server are greatly improved.

In order to achieve the purpose, the invention is realized by the following technical scheme:

two ends of a heat conduction pipe in the tower type component are communicated with the current conversion component through a drainage pipe, the single current conversion component is simultaneously connected with one or more tower type components, the current conversion component is positioned outside a cabinet of the server and comprises a circulating pump, a condensation pipe, a refrigerator and a replenisher, the circulating pump and the condensation pipe form a closed circulating pipeline through the drainage pipe and the heat conduction pipe, the condensation pipe is spiral, and the condensation pipe is positioned in the refrigerator; a heat-conducting medium is arranged in the storage tank connected with the replenisher, and is extracted or filled into the circulating pipeline from the replenisher through the inlet and outlet valves;
and the tower component and the current conversion component are electrically connected with a control module of the heat dissipation system.
Preferably, the number of the heat conduction pipes is more than four; two adjacent heat conduction pipes are led out from the heat conduction seat, and when the heat conduction pipes penetrate through the second heat dissipation fins, the vertical parts in the second heat dissipation fins are sequentially and inwardly deviated, so that the vertical parts of the heat conduction pipes are positioned on different planes, and gaps are formed between the adjacent heat conduction pipes.
Preferably, the heat exchanging fan is disposed on a side surface of the second heat dissipating fin opposite to the U-shaped opening of the heat conducting pipe, and the circulating airflow formed by the heat exchanging fan passes through the second heat dissipating fin at the U-shaped opening of the heat conducting pipe.
The heat conduction pipes are distributed according to the special mode, so that the effect of the heat exchange fan for accelerating air convection can be improved; the blocking of the gaps in the second heat dissipation fins by the heat conduction pipes is avoided.
Preferably, an opening is formed in the center of the first heat dissipation fin on the heat conduction seat, a temperature sensor is arranged in the opening, and the temperature sensor is electrically connected with a control module of the heat dissipation system.
Preferably, a pressure gauge is arranged in the circulating pipeline formed by the heat conduction pipe and the current conversion component, and the pressure gauge is used for detecting the pressure of the heat conduction medium in the circulating pipeline; the pressure gauge is electrically connected with the control module.
Preferably, the refrigerator is formed by connecting a compressor, a condenser, a restrictor and an evaporator in sequence to form a vapor compression refrigeration system, and the refrigerant used in the refrigerator is an environment-friendly refrigerant R407.
Preferably, the heat pipe and the heat conducting seat are made of copper metal, and the first radiating fins and the second radiating fins are made of copper or aluminum metal; the drainage tube is made of flexible material high polymer material.
The first heat dissipation fins and the second heat dissipation fins can be made of aluminum metal besides copper metal, and the cost is properly reduced in consideration of the heat conduction performance. The drainage tube and the current conversion component are mainly located outside the cabinet of the server, so that the drainage tube is suitable for being produced by utilizing flexible materials, and the drainage tube is convenient to arrange and store.
Preferably, the heat-conducting medium is pure water, methanol or silicone oil. The heat-conducting medium needs to be a material which has good heat-conducting efficiency, higher specific heat capacity, lower freezing point and no corrosion effect, and other media meeting the conditions can be selected besides the materials.
When the heat dissipation system in the server is installed, the tower type component is installed on the surfaces of a CPU chip, a north bridge chip and other high-heating components, the heat conducting seat is attached to the surfaces of the chips, the chips are tightly combined by using heat conducting grease, then the chips are fixed by using a fastener or other fasteners, and the tower type component is electrically connected with the control module by using related cables after the heat dissipation system is installed; and then, the heat conduction pipe at the top of the tower type component is communicated with the current conversion component by utilizing the drainage pipe to form a closed heat conduction medium circulation pipeline. When connecting, the same current converting component can be connected with a plurality of tower components. And then the current conversion component is electrically connected with the control module through a related cable.
When the system is used, the temperature sensor in the tower-type component can detect the temperature of the heat conducting seat directly contacted with the chip in real time, so that the temperature of the chip is determined; when the temperature of the chip is relatively low, the current conversion component stops working, the heat exchange fan in the tower component runs, on one hand, heat generated by the chip is conducted to the first radiating fins through the heat conducting seat, and the heat can be rapidly dissipated due to the high surface area of the first radiating fins; on the other hand, heat can also be transferred to the second radiating fins through the heat conduction pipes, the heat exchange fans on the side surfaces of the second radiating fins can accelerate convection of air, and airflow quickly passes through gaps of the second radiating fins, so that the heat on the second radiating fins is taken away more quickly; eventually lowering the temperature of the chip.
If meet chip power too big, the unable rapid loss's of heat situation, the part of changing the current this moment starts, and the operation through the refrigerator reduces heat-conducting medium's in with the condenser pipe temperature rapidly, then the operation of rethread circulating pump carries tower part's heat pipe with low temperature heat-conducting medium, and the high temperature heat-conducting medium after absorbing the heat in the heat pipe circulates to the condenser pipe in and cools down simultaneously, through such circulation effect, promotes tower part's cooling effect. In the operation process, the pressure gauge can detect the pressure of the heat-conducting medium in the circulating pipeline, and when the pipeline leaks to cause the pressure of the heat-conducting medium to be too low, early warning can be carried out. If a moderate pressure change occurs due to expansion and contraction of the heat transfer medium, the filling or extraction of the heat transfer medium may be performed by the replenisher. In addition, in the operation process, in order to further reduce the risk of leakage of the heat-conducting medium, the heat-conducting medium in the circulating pipeline can be pumped out and stored in the storage tank under the condition that the heat dissipation performance is improved without using a converter component.
The invention has the following beneficial effects:
the cooling system in the server is more efficient, and can provide a better temperature environment for the operation of the server, so that the performance of the server is improved.
The heat dissipation system is only suitable for the tower type component to dissipate heat in a low-temperature state through the comprehensive application of the liquid cooling component and the air cooling component, and simultaneously, the current conversion component is started in a high-temperature state, so that the heat dissipation performance of the tower type component is improved by using the liquid cooling system. In the system, the converter component and the tower component are designed in a split manner, and the liquid heat-conducting medium cannot enter a server cabinet under the state that the tower component works independently; only when the converter component is needed to operate and heat dissipation is assisted, the heat-conducting medium enters the server cabinet; and even if the heat-conducting medium enters the cabinet, the heat-conducting medium only circulates in the sealed heat-conducting pipe, so that the system has little risk of leakage and damage to a server mainboard or a chip.
In addition, due to the adoption of a split design, a tower type component does not need to be provided with a related structure for liquid cooling circulation, so that the tower type component has smaller size specification, is applied to a rack type server with narrow space, and has better compatibility of a heat dissipation system.
In the invention, in order to further improve the safety of the current conversion component, the circulating pipeline is also provided with the pressure gauge for monitoring the pressure of the heat-conducting medium in the circulating pipeline in real time, so that the fault that the heat-conducting medium leaks due to pipeline damage is prevented, and the pressure of the heat-conducting medium in the circulating pipeline can be relieved or pressurized under the condition that the pressure of the heat-conducting medium in the circulating pipeline changes due to expansion caused by heat and contraction caused by cold.
The tower-type component is equivalent to an air-cooling heat dissipation device in a traditional heat dissipation system, and in order to improve the heat dissipation performance of the component and enable the component to be more effectively fused with a current conversion component, the structure of the component is improved, the structure and the arrangement mode of a heat conduction pipe are changed, and a group of heat dissipation fins are added, so that the air-cooling heat dissipation effect is better, and the double heat dissipation mode and the comprehensive heat dissipation mode of air cooling and liquid cooling can be realized.

The more the heat conduction pipes 12 are, the better the heat conduction and radiation efficiency is, but the more the heat conduction pipes 12 are, the more the heat conduction pipes influence the convection of air, and in the embodiment, the heat conduction pipes 12 are arranged according to the special mode, so that the effect of the heat exchange fan 15 on accelerating the convection of air can be improved; the heat conduction pipe 12 is prevented from blocking the gap in the second heat dissipation fins 14.
