A system for managing distribution of a cooling medium includes a sensor configured to detect a condition, a first agent configured to receive the detected condition and to determine whether a characteristic of the cooling medium controlled via a first actuator is to be manipulated based upon the detected condition. The system also includes a second agent configured to receive at least one of the detected condition and the flow manipulation determination of the first actuator and to determine whether a characteristic of the cooling medium controlled by a second actuator is to be manipulated based upon the at least one of the detected condition and the characteristic manipulation determination of the first actuator.

In a method of managing a structure having an infrastructure system, a plurality of candidate components configured to provide redundancy to the infrastructure system are identified. Reliability levels of the structure are evaluated with a plurality of different combinations of candidate components. In addition, the structure is managed based upon the evaluated reliability levels.

In a method of estimating a replacement cost associated with an existing technology performed by a processor, one or more costs associated with implementing the existing technology are obtained, in which the one or more costs include an environmental cost and a utility cost associated with implementing the existing technology. In addition, an existing net benefit of continuing implementation of the existing technology based upon the obtained one or more costs are calculated.
摘要:
In a method for controlling temperature using a sensor network, the sensors of the sensor network are commissioned and one of a plurality of control schemes for operating a primary actuator configured to vary temperatures of the sensors based upon energy utilization requirements of the plurality of control schemes is selected. In addition, the selected one of the plurality of control schemes is implemented to vary the temperatures detected by the sensors.
摘要:
A cooling system including a housing forming a cooling chamber containing the component submerged in a pool of alcohol, oil or glycerine, a sprayer configured to spray water at the component through the oil or glycerine, and a heat exchanger configured to cool the oil or glycerine. A control system receives heat-generation information from temperature sensors on water-impingement regions of the component, and controls the spraying in response to this information. A pump pumps the oil or glycerine from a lower portion of the cooling chamber to the heat exchanger. A sprayer inlet draws water from an upper portion of the cooling chamber, or from a lower portion of a reservoir connected to the heat exchanger. Oil or glycerine is passed from a portion of the heat exchanger reservoir back to the cooling chamber, and water passes from an upper portion of the reservoir to the sprayer. Alternatively, the oil or glycerine could be replaced with helium.

In a method of operating an air conditioning unit to reduce moisture varying operations, psychrometric chart data is accessed. In addition, a constraint is set on the relationship between the temperature of air supplied by the air conditioning unit and the relative humidity of the air supplied based upon information contained in the psychrometric chart data. The air conditioning unit is controlled based upon the constraint to thereby reduce moisture varying operations of the air conditioning unit.
摘要:
A computer system comprising a plurality of electronic components disposed within a chassis. The electronic components generate a cooling load of at least 50 CFM at 2 inches of water or greater. An air mover is disposed within said chassis and is operable to generate airflow of at least 50 CFM at 2 inches of water or greater. An air distribution system is coupled to the air mover and is operable to distribute the airflow to the plurality of electronic components.
摘要:
A method for data connectivity in a room with a robotic device. In the method, at least one condition is detected with a plurality of sensors and the detected at least one condition is communicated from the sensors to associated access points. One or more of the access points are selected and the robotic device is maneuvered to a location in a vicinity of one or more of the selected access points. The detected at least one condition is communicated from one or more of the selected access points to the robotic device. In addition, the robotic device is maneuvered to a location in a vicinity of a base station and the detected at least one condition is communicated from the robotic device to the base station.
摘要:
A referencing scheme provides a thermal interface between a heat sink and chips within a MultiChip Module (MCM). The referencing scheme comprises a heat sink with a support ring that penetrates a trough formed within a substrate of the MCM. A thermal transfer medium positioned between the heat sink and the chips forms a thermal interface having a low thermal resistance. This cools the chips and ensures reliable operation of the MCM. The trough is filled with a curable adhesive, securing the heat sink to the substrate of the MCM.
