Abstract: An enclosure forms a plurality of tiers vertically stacked in a longitudinal dimension. Each tier is a 1U modular computer system having a computer chassis configured for mounting in the multi-tiered support, and computer components that need cooling within the computer chassis. A cold plate is in thermal communication with at least one of the computer components, and convectively removes heat from that component using a liquid coolant. A heat exchanger dissipates heat from the liquid coolant, and provides liquid coolant back to the cold plate. An air mover within the chassis cools the heat exchanger, blows air across other components needing cooling, and removes heated air from the chassis. The air mover may extend substantially across the chassis, or it may blow crosswise from an outlet-ventilating direction.

Abstract: A primary power supply and a secondary power supply are operable to supply power to at least one electrical device. A power demand of the electrical device is determined, and an efficient operating point for the primary power supply is determined. One or more of the primary power supply and the secondary power supply are used to supply power to the electrical device based on whether the primary power supply operating at an efficient operating point is operable to meet the power demand of the at least one electrical device.

Abstract: An air conditioning unit may be controlled based on an index of performance designed to quantify re-circulation levels. For the air conditioning unit control, an index of performance set point is determined and the index of performance for a first iteration is measured. In addition, it is determined whether the measured index of performance for the first iteration equals or exceeds the index of performance set point. Moreover, a supply air temperature of the air conditioning unit is increased in response to the measured index of performance for the first iteration equaling or exceeding the index of performance set point.

Abstract: A device for reducing temperature variation in a plenum includes at least one pipe and a plurality of sumps containing a fluid operable to vary between a liquid state and a gaseous state depending upon a temperature of the fluid. The plurality of sumps are positioned at various locations within the plenum and the at least one pipe is in fluid communication with the plurality of sumps. In addition, the fluid, in the gaseous state, is caused to move through the at least one pipe and condense, thereby reducing the temperature at the location of the sump where the fluid was vaporized and thereby reducing temperature variation in the plenum.
