Abstract: The invention discloses an air conditioner terminal device (100), an air conditioning apparatus and a data center (1000), wherein the air conditioner terminal device (100) comprises an air passage (101) communicating from an air suction port (11) to an air discharge port (21), a heat exchanger (12) and a variable-speed fan (22) which forces air in the air passage (101) to flow towards the air discharge port (21) from the air suction port (11) are installed in the air passage (101), and both the air suction port (11) and the air discharge port (21) are open downwardly. Therefore, air circulation can be improved and refrigerating capacity of the air conditioner terminal device can be increased.

Abstract: This invention provides a temperature and humidity independent control air conditioning system, comprising a high temperature cooling unit, a low temperature cooling unit, a humidity processing unit, and an indoor unit, wherein the coolant with a first temperature provided by the high temperature cooling unit flows into the indoor unit and then its temperature becomes a second temperature; the coolant with a third temperature provided by the low temperature cooling unit flows into the humidity processing unit; the coolant with the second temperature is divided to the low temperature cooling unit. With this invention, temperature and humidity independent control can be realized with high efficiency.

Abstract: A system and method for conditioning air within an air handling system of a building is provided. The building has a hot water source and a cold water source. The conditioning system includes at least one heating-cooling unit connected to the air handling system, a primary water storage device, at least one heat pump, and a controller. The heating-cooling unit, which includes at least one chilled beam, is operable to transfer heat into or out of air passing within the air handling system of the building. The primary water storage device is operable to store a volume of water within a predetermined temperature range. The primary water storage device is in communication with the hot water source and the cold water source. The heat pump is connected to the primary water storage device and the chilled beam. The controller is adapted to selectively drive the heat pump to transfer heat between the primary water storage device and the chilled beam.

Abstract: A thermally managed solar cell system includes a photovoltaic cell for generating electricity and heat. The system includes a housing, a base, and a heat removal device. The housing surrounds the solar cell system and has an open, rear portion. The base is positionable in the open portion of the housing and supports the photovoltaic cell. The base is also thermally conductive and spreads heat generated from the photovoltaic cell. The heat removal device and the base act as a single unit with the heat removal device being coupled to the base to remove the heat from the base.

Abstract: An integrated solar cell system applies energy created by a solar cell module. The integration system includes a solar cell module, a low-grade heat recovery means, and a process system. The low-grade heat recovery means recovers waste heat from the solar cell module and connects the solar cell module to the process system. The process system is powered at least partially by thermal energy derived from waste heat generated by the solar cell module.
