摘要:

云计算和大数据时代对高密度存储服务器的需求越来越大。由于温度对电子元器件的性能和寿命有很大的影响,而高密度存储服务器的功率密度更大,故必须对其进行合理的热设计,以确保服务器工作时的温度在合理可控范围内。介绍了高密度存储服务器的结构,以及散热风道、散热器、风扇等关键散热部件的热设计方法。热设计整体方案采用吸风式的强迫风冷散热方式;基于Flotherm热仿真软件对整机系统进行了仿真优化;在35℃实际应用环境下对产品样机进行了热测试。测试结果表明,该热设计方案满足热设计要求。

Abstract:

Big data and cloud computing applications have a booming demand for high density storage servers by  in recent years. Since temperature has a great influence on the performance and lifecycle of electronic components, and high density storage servers have higher power density, desired cooling solution design is in great need, so the servers can work at a proper temperature. We introduce a thermal design method for high density storage servers, in which the forced air cooling method is adopted. The thermal simulation software Flotherm is used to guarantee the cooling effect. We construct an engineering project and test the proposal under 35℃ ambient temperature. The results show that this solution can meet the thermal design requirements.
