The return air area defines a return air damper and an air outlet, and the installation area defines an air inlet damper and an air outlet damper. The installation area includes a fan control unit, a humidity control unit and an electronic device.

Warmed air generated by the electronic device partly flows to the return air area through the return air damper, and the cold air and the warmed air are mixed. The mixed air is configured to dissipate heat for the electronic device, and the humidity in the data center is reduced.

Abstract: A cooling system includes a first temperature sensor, a pump, a first controller, and a first filtering device. The first temperature sensor senses a temperature of an external water source and outputs a first temperature value. The pump pumps the water from the external water source.

The controller receives the first detection signal to activate the base to heighten the container, until the first detection signal ceases or the base is at a highest point.

Abstract: A data center includes a container with a raised floor defining a number of openings, and a server system received in the container. The server system includes a rack and a number of servers received in the rack at different heights. Cooling air is released by a cooling device. A number of pressurizing fans are arranged under the raised floor aligned with the openings to drive the cooling air to flow upwards through the openings. A number of temperature sensors are mounted to the rack to sense temperatures of air flowing out of the servers. The temperatures sensed by the temperature sensors are transmitted to a computing unit. According to the temperatures, the computing unit adjusts the speeds of the pressurizing fans to make the cooling air within the container be better distributed for evenly cooling the servers.
