Thermoelectric coolers, also referred to as Peltier coolers, offer a smaller, more efficient option to precisely cool or heat vital electronics in telecom enclosures, energy storage and battery backup cabinets.
Data centres (DCs) and telecommunication base stations (TBSs) are energy intensive with ∼40% of the energy consumption for cooling. Here, we provide a comprehensive review on recent research on energy-saving technologies for cooling DCs and TBSs, covering free-cooling, liquid-cooling, two-phase cooling and thermal energy storage based cooling.
3. Cooling methods and performance The cooling of DCs and TBSs is mainly achieved using computer room air conditioning (CRAC) units, which consists of a vapour compression refrigeration system for cooling and a cold/hot aisle layout (Fig. 3) (Nada et al., 2016).
However, the electrical enclosures that contain battery energy storage systems are often located outdoors and exposed to extreme temperatures, severe weather, humidity, dirt, and dust. Like most heat-sensitive electrical equipment, operation within hot and cold temperatures can, over time, reduce power output and longevity.
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) ensure a steady supply of lower-cost power for commercial and residential needs, decrease our collective dependency on fossil fuels, and reduce carbon emissions for a cleaner environment.
To maintain the indoor temperature of DCs or TBSs, the computer room air conditioning (CRAC) system and chilled-water system have been developed which are energy intensive (Borah et al., 2015) and contribute more carbon emissions.
Energy-saving cooling technologies, as environmentally friendly and low-cost cooling solution, have been developed low-carbon, energy-efficient and achieving sustainability (Cho et al., 2017). Such cooling technologies could be applied to DCs and TBSs since their servers and racks have similar layouts.
