PRESSURE-ACTIVATED SERVER COOLING SYSTEM |
| 摘要 |
A pressure-activated server cooling system includes a server rack that houses one or more servers. The server rack has an interior plenum. A fan is coupled to the server rack that exhausts air from inside the plenum to outside the server rack. A differential pressure sensor collects pressure sensor data and a fan controller, which is operatively connected to the fan and the differential pressure sensor, activates the fan in response to the pressure sensor data. In some embodiments, the fan controller increases the speed of the fan when the pressure sensor data indicates greater than atmospheric pressure in the plenum. |
