  • Patent number: 11805626
    Abstract: A heat exchanger for removing heat from a server cabinet, wherein the heat exchanger is disposed within the server cabinet and behind at least one server in the server cabinet, the heat exchanger including an upstream surface facing the at least one server, the upstream surface receiving air heated by the at least one server, wherein the air enters the heat exchanger in a generally horizontal direction, the heat exchanger having a fluid inlet for receiving a working fluid, and a fluid outlet for discharging the working fluid, wherein the working fluid cools the air entering the heat exchanger, and the heat exchanger having a downstream surface that discharges air cooled by the heat exchanger, wherein the air cooled by the heat exchanger exits the heat exchanger in a generally vertical direction.

  • Patent number: 11737238
    Abstract: A cooling system configured to remove heat from a chimney of a server cabinet. The chimney has an extending portion extending above the server rack including a chimney heat exchanger in the extending portion above the server rack. The chimney heat exchanger has a fluid inlet for receiving a working fluid and a fluid outlet for discharging the working fluid. The chimney heat exchanger also has an upstream surface receiving warm waste heat generated by one or more servers and a downstream surface that discharges cooled air cooled by the chimney heat exchanger. The server rack may be accessed through the chimney without requiring movement of the chimney heat exchanger.

  • Patent number: 11570936
    Abstract: A cooling system configured to remove heat from a chimney of a server cabinet. The system includes a first heat exchanger unit in the chimney of the server cabinet. The first heat exchanger has a fluid inlet for receiving a working fluid and a fluid outlet for discharging the working fluid. The first heat exchanger also has an upstream surface receiving waste heat generated by one or more servers and a downstream surface that discharges air cooled by the first heat exchanger. The upstream surface is generally perpendicular to the downstream surface.
