Abstract
A liquid-cooled server chassis includes: a case; one or more liquid-cooling modules, each liquid-cooling module including a housing, a gas outlet valve, and a liquid return valve, wherein the gas outlet valve and the liquid return valve are opened during operation of the liquid-cooling module, and the liquid-cooling module accommodates a single server and is filled with coolant during operation; a connector configured to connect the liquid-cooling module to a power source; and a circulation portion including an gas outlet pipe, a liquid return pipe, a vapor processing part, and a liquid collecting part.
Claims15
A liquid-cooled server chassis, comprising:
- a case;
- one or more liquid-cooling modules, each liquid-cooling module comprising a housing, a gas outlet valve, and a liquid return valve, wherein the gas outlet valve and the liquid return valve are opened during operation of the liquid-cooling module, and the liquid-cooling module accommodates a single server and is filled with coolant during operation;
- a connector configured to connect the liquid-cooling modules to a power supply;
- and
- a circulation portion comprising a gas outlet pipe, a liquid return pipe, a vapor processing part, and a liquid collecting part,
- wherein:
- the gas outlet pipe is connected to the gas outlet valve of each liquid-cooling module and is configured to transfer gas from the liquid-cooling module to the vapor processing part;
- the liquid return pipe is connected to the liquid return valve of each liquid-cooling module and is configured to transfer liquid from the liquid collecting part to the liquid-cooling module;
- the vapor processing part is connected to the gas outlet pipe and includes a condenser, the condenser being configured to condense vapor into condensed liquid by cooling the vapor in the vapor processing part;
- and
- the liquid collecting part is disposed below the vapor processing part and connected to the liquid return pipe, and configured to collect the condensed liquid from the vapor processing part.
