Description

漏液检测的装置、方法和计算机设备
本申请要求于2021年9月30日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为CN202111166698.0、发明名称为“漏液检测的装置、方法和计算机设备”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及计算机技术领域,尤其涉及一种漏液检测的装置、方法和计算机设备。
背景技术
云计算、大数据、人工智能(artificial intelligent,AI)等技术的普及促使高密度计算形态的兴起,而随着服务器性能的不断提升,服务器的功耗也大幅增长。因此,液冷技术逐渐成为高密,高性能服务器实现设备散热的主要手段。
采用液冷技术散热的服务器中设置有填充冷却液的液冷管道,通过与液冷管道连接的泵使得液冷管道中冷却液在液冷管道中循环流动,将服务器中器件产生的热量传导至冷夜液中,再通过与液冷管道连接的制冷装置对冷却液进行冷却,进而完成服务器中器件的散热。但是,上述方案中液冷管道随着使用年限的增加会出现老化问题,液冷管道中冷却液存在泄漏的问题,泄漏的冷却液滴落在器件上会导致器件故障。现有技术中,通常使用水浸绳传感器检测液冷管道是否出现漏液,具体是将水浸绳传感器缠绕在液冷管道的外部,当出现冷却液泄漏时,水浸绳传感器可以发出告警。但是,水浸绳传感器的方案仅能检测漏液问题,泄漏的冷却液仍有滴落在器件表面导致器件故障的问题,因此,如何提供一种更安全的漏液检测方法成为亟待解决的技术问题。

具体实施方式
本申请实施例提供了一种漏液检测的装置和漏液检测的方法,该漏液检测的装置能够在液冷装置的漏液溢出到电子元件13之前检测到漏液的发生,提升了电子元件13的安全性。
为了更全面的理解本申请,下面具体描述本申请中所描述的技术方案的设计思路:
本申请提出一种漏液检测的装置,该装置包括:套管21、导流装置(22,27)和漏液检测电路25。该装置用于为由第一液冷管11和液冷板12组成的液冷装置进行漏液检测,其中该液冷装置用于为电子元件13降温。本申请利用了冷却液导电的特性,在漏液检测电路25上设置开路区域35,当装置出现漏液问题时,由套管21和导流装置(22,27)将漏出的冷却液导流至开路区域35,漏液检测电路25根据对开路区域的电压监测获知该开路区域有无电压,确定开路区域是否导通,从而确定是否出现漏液。本申请中提到的冷却液均为导电液体,常见的包括自来水和不同浓度的盐水等。
套管21套设于第一液冷管11外部,该第一液冷管11一端与液冷板12连通。当液冷管11发生漏液时,第一漏液被套管21接住,从套管21的一端溢出,经由第一导流装置22流至漏液检测电路25,漏液检测电路25导通,漏液检测电路25获知液冷装置发生漏液。为了提升方案的安全性,该套管21会尽量增加包裹第一液冷管11的区域大小,这样该套管21的一端就会接近甚至在第一液冷管11与液冷板12的连接处与液冷板12接触。由于第一漏液可能发生在第一液冷管11外套设套管21的区域,也有可能出现在第一液冷管11与液冷板12相接处,但是由于在实际应用中,套管21的一端接近液冷板12,导致对这两种情况下的漏液可以使用在相同位置设置第一导流装置的方式对漏出的冷却液进行导流。本方案将在第一液冷管11上漏出的冷却液统称第一漏液,使用第一导流装置22对第一漏液进行导流。
根据导流位置不同以及液冷板12的设计不同,导流装置(22,27)分为第一导流装置22和第二导流装置27。其中,第一导流装置22用于为第一液冷管11漏出的和/或第一液冷管11和液冷板12连接处漏出的第一漏液导流,第一导流装置22设于第一液冷管11和 液冷板12相接处的下方,并且可以根据需要设有一定角度,第一导流装置22一端连接漏液检测电路25,这样一来在漏液检测装置设计的时候可以通过调节该角度来调节漏液检测电路25在第一漏液和/或第二漏液出现时的检测效率。当液冷板12为设有接水盘122的液冷板12时,该液冷板12在接水盘122上还设有漏液出口1222。第二导流装置27设置在液冷板12和漏液检测电路25之间,第二导流装置27一端与漏液检测电路25连接,另一端位于液冷板12的漏液出口1222下方盛接液冷板12的漏液,该第二导流装置也可以根据需要设有一定的角度。当液冷板12发生漏液时,由于重力的作用,漏液会落入液冷板12的接水盘122中,第二导流装置27将漏液从该接水盘导流至漏液检测电路25,漏液检测电路25导通,从而漏液检测电路25获知液冷装置发生漏液。需要说明的是,本申请提到的导流均为通过一定的结构限定液体的流动路径,至于流动是如何产生的,并不做具体的限定。在实际的应用中,可能是由于导流盘(22,27)设置了倾斜,使第一漏液和第二漏液在导流盘中流动。可选的,也可以是由于液体积累到一定程度沿着设定的流动路径不断延伸。此处的讲解是为了帮助理解零部件的具体使用方式,方案的实施方式请参照具体的实施例中的解释。
基于以上的思路,下面对本申请提出的技术方案进行具体的介绍;
示例地,图1为本申请提供的一种漏液检测的装置的结构示意图。首先,结合图1对本申请实施例中的液冷装置进行简单的介绍,为了便于说明,该示意图仅展现了与本申请实施例有关的部分。
其中,该第一液冷管11一端与液冷板12中设置的液冷接头121连通,液冷板12设置在电子元件13的上方,电子元件13设置于印制电路板(printed circuit board,PCB)26,液冷板12可以与电子元件13直接接触或通过导电材料间接接触,以便将电子元件13产生的热量传导至液冷板12的第二液冷管中的冷却液中。通常情况下,冷却液由于压缩机的作用在第一液冷管11和液冷板12的第二液冷管中流动,并在流动的过程中直接或间接与电子元件13进行热传递,以降低电子元件13的温度,达到制冷的目的。需要说明的是,此处的导热介质不做限定,可以为空气或硅胶等具有一定导热性质的材质。
下面结合图1对本申请实施例提供的一种漏液检测的装置进行介绍。本申请实施例提供的液检测装置包括第一液冷管11、液冷板12、套管21、导流装置(22,27)和漏液检测电路25,其中漏液检测电路25包括导通点(23,24,28,29),导通点(23,24,28,29)设置在漏液检测电路25的开路区域。
首先,可以在第一液冷管11外设置套管21,由于在应用中该套管21会尽量增加包裹第一液冷管11的区域大小,这样该套管21的一端就会接近甚至在第一液冷管11与液冷板12的连接处与液冷板12接触。第一导流装置22设置于第一液冷管11与液冷板12的相接处下方,即可盛接第一液冷管11在各个区域发生的第一漏液。第一导流装置22另一端与第一导通点23连接,第一导通点23与检测控制电路中的电源电压(voltage drain drain,VDD)31连接,第二导通点24与检测控制电路中的模拟数字转换器(analog to digital converter,ADC)32连接。
示例地,图2为本申请提供的一种漏液检测电路示意图,其中第一导通点23和第二导通点24为位于漏液检测电路25的开路区域35的导线上的露铜点,其中第一导通点23与 检测控制电路中的VDD31连接,第二导通点24与检测控制电路中的ADC32连接,ADC32通过两线制串行总线(inter-integrated circuit,I2C)33与微控制单元(micro control unit,MCU)34相连。其中,MCU34用于在获知液冷装置漏液时,执行预设动作。
当第一液冷管11外设套管21的区域发生漏液时,第一漏液被套管21存储,并从套管21的一端流出至第一导流装置22,若第一导流装置22设置有一定角度,使第一导流装置22靠近第一导通点23的一端低于位于第一液冷管11和液冷板12相接处。则第一漏液受重力作用沿着第一导流装置22流至第一导通点23,第一漏液在第一导通点23累积到一定程度时受到液体表面张力的影响,扩散至第二导通点24,漏液将第一导通点23和第二导通点24连通,漏液检测电路25通过对VDD31和ADC32间的电压监测获知VDD21和ADC32之间产生电压,从而得知液冷装置漏液。漏液检测电路25在获知液冷装置漏液后可以执行预设动作,例如:在获知液冷装置漏液后告警。或在获知液冷装置漏液后为本设备内的电路板进行断电操作。或在获知液冷装置漏液后反馈信号给控制终端,使控制终端可以暂停该液冷装置的工作等。
当第一液冷管11和液冷板12相接处发生漏液时,第一漏液下落至第一导流装置22,若第一导流装置22为水平设置。则第一漏液不断积累,并且扩散直至从第一导流装置22扩散至第一导通点23,第一漏液在第一导通点23累积到一定程度时受到液体表面张力的影响,扩散至第二导通点24,漏液将第一导通点23和第二导通点24连通,漏液检测电路25通过对VDD31和ADC32间的电压监测获知VDD21和ADC32之间产生电压,从而得知液冷装置漏液。第一导流装置22为水平时,由于漏液需要积累到一定量才会扩散至第一导通点23,故第一导流装置22设置合适的角度可以明显提升漏液检测的效率。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例仅为漏液检测电路的实现提供了一种具体的电路,在实际应用中,漏液检测电路的具体布局和设计不做限制。
通过前述第一漏液出现时,第一导流装置22是否设置角度对漏液检测效率的影响,可以明显获知本申请中,套管21和水平面的夹角设置会影响本申请的漏液检测效率。由此提出,由于第一液冷管11可以通过设置不同的形态和角度来影响套管21的状态。由于对本申请的漏液检测效率产生实质影响的为套管21的状态,此处仅对套管21的状态进行讨论,套管21在第一液冷管11发生漏液时,该套管21的状态可能为如下列举的三种情况中的任一种:
情况一:套管21中点到电子元件13的垂直距离大于套管21两端到电子元件13的垂直距离,在这种情况下,当第一液冷管11发生漏液时,第一漏液受到重力作用,从套管21的两端流出,第一导流装置22将该第一漏液导流至第一导通点23,液体积累到一定程度后,液体的表面张力不足以支撑液滴,漏液扩散至第二导通点24,漏液将第一导通点23和第二导通点24导通,漏液检测电路25通过对VDD31和ADC32间的电压监测获知VDD31和ADC32之间产生电压,进而获知液冷装置漏液。
情况二:套管21中点到电子元件13的垂直距离小于套管21两端到电子元件13的垂直距离,在这种情况下,当第一液冷管11漏液发生时,漏液受到重力作用,向套管21中点聚集,当液面高度与套管21一端口齐平时,漏液开始从套管21的该端口溢出,第一导流装置22将漏液导流至第一导通点23,液体积累到一定程度后,液体的表面张力不足以 支撑液滴,漏液扩散至第二导通点24,漏液将第一导通点23和第二导通点24导通,漏液检测电路25通过对VDD31和ADC32间的电压监测,获知VDD31和ADC32之间产生电压,进而获知液冷装置漏液。
情况三:套管21为一条直线管,该套管21的一端到电子元件13的垂直距离高于该套管21的另一端,当第一液冷管11漏液发声时,漏液受重力影响,从该套管21到电子元件13垂直距离较近的一端漏出,第一导流装置22将漏液导流至第一导通点23,液体积累到一定程度后,液体的表面张力不足以支撑液滴,漏液扩散至第二导通点24,漏液将第一导通点23和第二导通点24导通,漏液检测电路25通过对VDD31和ADC32间的电压监测,获知VDD31和ADC32之间产生电压,进而获知液冷装置漏液。
以上三种情况各有优点,情况一可以加快漏液从套管21溢出的速度,可以尽快检测到漏液的发生,从而提升处理异常的效率。情况二可以使漏液聚集到一定程度后再从套管21溢出,可以在保证PCB26安全的基础上,尽量延长从漏液发生到漏液从套管21端口溢出的时间,使得电路可以在漏液发生但并不严重的时候可以正常运行。情况三可以通过两端的高度差,使得漏液稳定的向一端聚集,通过合理的设计可以减少导流装置的设置,减少对PCB26上空间的占用。
此外,液冷装置中的液冷板12有多种设计,该液冷板12的具体形态请参照图3,为本申请提供的一种液冷板的结构示意图,图3提供的液冷板12为一个包括液冷接头121、固定螺丝123、弹簧124和基板125的结构,其中固定螺丝123穿过弹簧124通过螺纹连接的方式与PCB26板相接。弹簧124的一端与固定螺丝123连接,弹簧124的另一端与基板125连接。
可选的,液冷板12还可以为基于前述图3中展示的液冷板12增置接水盘122的液冷板12,该液冷板12的具体形态请参照图4,为本申请提供的另一种液冷板12的结构示意图,该液冷板12设置有接水盘122,根据PCB26的设计中液冷板到漏液检测电路的距离,对应有不同的漏液引流方案,下面将阐述液冷板12到漏液检测电路25有一定的距离的情况:
本申请实施例中,图4提供的液冷板12为一个包括液冷接头121,接水盘122和固定螺丝123和弹簧124的结构,其中接水盘122设有围边1221和漏液出口1222,围边1221用于限制漏液溢出至PCB26,漏液出口1222用于将漏液从接水盘122中释放。固定螺丝123穿过弹簧124通过螺纹连接的方式与PCB26板相接。弹簧124的一端与固定螺丝123连接,弹簧124的另一端与接水盘122连接。
需要注意的是,不含有接水盘122的液冷板12有多种形态,前述图3仅为其中的一种可能的方式。
可选的,漏液检测装置还包括第二导流装置27,第二导流装置27与液冷板12的漏液出口125连接,第二导流装置27另一端与第一导通点28连接,第一导通点23与漏液检测电路25中的VDD31连接。第二导通点29与漏液检测电路25中的ADC32连接。当液冷板12漏液时,漏液经由液冷板12的接水盘122流经第二导流装置27,流至第一导通点28,漏液累积到一定程度时受到液体表面张力的影响,扩散至第二导通点29,漏液将第一导通点28和第二导通点29连通,漏液检测电路25通过对VDD31和ADC32间的电压监测获 知电压发生波动,进而获知液冷装置漏液。
可选的,PCB26的设计还有液冷板12位于漏液检测电路25上方的情况:
请参阅图5,为本申请提供的另一种漏液检测的装置的结构示意图,图5展示了由于PCB26的设计不同,液冷板12位于漏液检测电路25的上方,第一导通点28位于液冷板12的漏液出口1221下方,第一导通点28与漏液检测电路25中的VDD31连接。第二导通点29与漏液检测电路25中的ADC32连接。当液冷板12漏液时,漏液经由液冷板12的接水盘122从漏液出口1221流至第一导通点28,漏液累积到一定程度时受到液体表面张力的影响,扩散至第二导通点29,漏液将第一导通点23和第二导通点24连通,漏液检测电路25通过对VDD31和ADC32间的电压监测获知电压发生波动,进而获知液冷装置漏液。
需要说明的是,前述方案中的第一导通点23和第一导通点28虽然都与漏液检测电路25中的VDD31相连,但实质上并不存在相互依赖的关系,第一导通点23也可以在第一导通点28不存在的情况下直接与VDD31相连。第二导通点24和第二导通点29同理,第二导通点24可以在第二导通点29不存在的情况下,直接与ADC32相连。
需要说明的是,由于液冷板12自身的生产方式多为一体成型,在实际应用中,漏液鲜有发生在液冷板12本身,液冷板12的漏液多发生在液冷板12与第一液冷管11的接口处,本申请实施例仅提供了一种最优选择,本申请实施例对液冷板12的具体形态不做限制。
由于在实际应用中,导通点有多种形态可以实现本申请实施例中的功能,此处提供一些可能性以供参考,请参考图6,为本申请提供的一种导通点形状示意图,图中列举了几种较常见的形状。下面参照该示意图对不同形态的导通点加以介绍:
实际应用中,导通点为PCB26走线到板子表层并露铜,该导通点的露铜外形可以有多种形态,包括但不限于PCB26走线231、焊盘232、过孔233、螺旋曲线234等。在列举的导通点四种形态中,以螺旋曲线234在实际应用中的表现较为突出。该螺旋曲线234可以使两个导通点更加接近,并且其曲线的形状使得更少的液体就能将两个导通点连接起来,提升了侦测漏液检测的效率。在应用中为了避免氧化导致的失效,导通点表面还可以做印锡或镀金等处理。从安全性的角度加以考量,以上各种形态的相邻两个导通点之间的露铜间距为2mil以上可以起到防湿尘短路的作用,导通点的露铜最小宽度为2mil可以起到防止腐蚀开路的作用。
需要说明的是,导通点的具体形态不做限制,此处仅为方案的实施提供一些可选项。
本申请实施例中,在第一液冷管11外包裹套管21并设置第一导流装置22将从套管21溢出的漏液导流至漏液检测电路25,能够在液冷装置的漏液溢出到电子元件13之前检测到漏液的发生,提升了漏液检测方案的安全性。
在实际应用中,漏液检测电路25和电子元件13可以部署于同一PCB26,也可以分别部署在两块不同的PCB26上并由导线连接。
在实际的应用中,为了进一步提升了方案的安全性,以及检测控制电路的可移植性,在进行PCB26设计时,电子工程师也会将实现功能的电路板和检测控制电路分开。
下面请参考图7,为本申请提供的另一种漏液检测的装置的结构示意图,图7介绍了检测控制电路和电子元件13部署于不同PCB26的情况。
本申请实施例提供的漏液检测的装置中包括液冷装置,液冷装置包括第一液冷管11和 液冷板12,第一液冷管11一端通液口与液冷板12的通液口连接,液冷板12设置于电子元件13的上方。
本申请实施例中,漏液检测装置还包括:套管21、第一导流装置22和漏液检测电路25,其中套管21包裹第一液冷管11,第一导流装置22一端位于套管21靠近液冷板12一端的端口下方与套管21连接,第一导流装置22另一端与第一导通点23连接,第一导通点23与漏液检测电路25中的VDD31相连,第二导通点24与漏液检测电路25中的ADC32相连,漏液检测电路25和上述电子元件13所在的PCB26分离,漏液检测电路25通过导线或排线与导通点连通。当第一液冷管11漏液时,漏液经由套管21流经第一导流装置22,流至第一导通点23,漏液累积到一定程度时受到液体表面张力的影响,扩散至第二导通点24,漏液将第一导通点23和第二导通点24连通,漏液检测电路25通过对VDD31和ADC32间的电压监测获知电压发生波动,从而得知液冷装置漏液。漏液检测电路25在获知液冷装置漏液后可以执行预设动作,具体的预设动作内容此处不做限定。
本申请实施例中,通过将检测控制电路和电子元件13所在的功能性电路分别设置于两个PCB26板上,进一步提升了方案的安全性,以及检测控制电路的可移植性。
上面对本申请实施例中的漏液检测装置进行了描述,下面对本申请实施例中的漏液检测的方法进行描述:
请参考图8,为本申请提供的一种漏液检测的方法的流程图,图8介绍了漏液发生时,液冷服务器漏液检测电路25导通,获知漏液检测装置漏液,漏液检测电路25获知漏液检测装置漏液后,执行预设动作。
801、液冷服务器获取第一电压。
液冷服务器内,漏液检测电路25的ADC302认为ADC302和VDD31中间设置有电阻,该ADC302不断获取该电阻上的电压,也即为ADC302和VDD31之间的第一电压。未发生漏液时,ADC302与VDD31之间为断路,第一电压为0;当漏液发生时,ADC302与VDD31之间为短路,第一电压非0。
802、第一电压非0时,液冷服务器获取漏液发生信号。
由于第一电压为0时,对应的ADC302与VDD31之间为断路,表示漏液未发生;第一电压非0时,对应的ADC302与VDD31之间为短路,表示漏液发生。ADC302在获取到第一电压非0,向液冷服务器的控制电路发送漏液发生信号,进而液冷服务器会获取到漏液发生信号。
803、液冷服务器根据漏液发生信号执行预设动作。
在获知漏液发生后,液冷服务器根据漏液发生信号执行在控制系统中有开发人员预设动作。具体的,预设动作可以是在获取漏液发生信号后告警;也可以是在获取漏液发生信号后为本设备进行断电操作;也可以是在获取漏液发生信号后告警;还可以是在获取漏液发生信号后反馈信号给对液冷装置的开关进行控制的控制终端,该控制终端可以暂停该液冷装置的工作等,该控制终端可以为设置有液冷装置开关程序的处理器,具体此处不做限制。
需要注意的是,这里的预设动作仅为举例,具体情况下的操作,此处不做限定。
本申请实施例中,通过获取第一电压,第一电压为零时,获取漏液发生信号,液冷服 务器根据漏液发生信号执行预设动作,提升了漏液检测的方法的可实现性。
