The inlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 communicates with the outlet end of the cold source device 30 so that a low-temperature medium output from the cold source device 30 may flow into the second heat exchanger 410 to cool the adsorbate in the second chamber 420.

When one of the adsorption process of the second adsorbent in the second chamber 420 and the desorption process of the first adsorbent in the first chamber 320 is completed, the coolant treatment system may be switched from the first state to the second state.
When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, the inlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 is in communication with the outlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20, so that the coolant flowing out of the liquid cooling apparatus 20 can flow into the second heat exchanger 410 to supply heat to the adsorbate in the second chamber 420.

In the refrigerating process of the evaporator 100, the heat desorbed by the adsorbents absorbed by the first adsorbent and the second adsorbent comes from the cooling liquid in the liquid cooling device 20, which absorbs the heat generated by the heating device, so that the heat in the cooling liquid flowing out of the liquid cooling device can be recycled, the heat recovery efficiency of the data center can be improved, and the waste of energy sources in the data center can be reduced.

The low temperature medium may be made by introducing a high temperature or normal temperature medium into the tenth heat exchange flow passage 120. For example, cold water may be produced by supplying normal-temperature water or high-temperature water into the tenth heat exchange flow passage 120.
For example, cold air, cold water, etc. produced by the evaporator 100 may be used for a cooling device of a data center, etc. that requires cold energy, to reduce energy consumption of the data center. Specifically, in some examples where a fan blowing air toward the first heat exchanging flow passage 110 is provided at the evaporator 100, cool air produced by the evaporator 100 and the fan may be blown into the machine room 10 to lower the temperature in the machine room 10, and thus heat generated in the machine room 10 may be taken away. That is, the cooling air made by the evaporator 100 may be utilized to cool the machine room 10. In some examples where the evaporator 100 includes the tenth heat exchange flow passage 120, the tenth heat exchange flow passage 120 may be in communication with the cold source device 30, and the low temperature medium made of the evaporator 100 may be used to dissipate heat from the medium flowing back to the cold source device 30 after absorbing the heat.

In this way, the utilization rate of the low-temperature medium flowing out of the cold source device 30 is high, and the number of the auxiliary devices such as the pipelines in the data center and the use amount of the medium for cooling in the data center can be reduced.
When the coolant treatment system includes the second reversing device 800, the inlet end of the seventh heat exchange flow passage 220 is connected to the second reversing device 800, so that the second reversing device 800 is connected to the inlet end of the cold source apparatus 30 through the seventh heat exchange flow passage 220.

In this way, the first driving device 900 may provide the power for flowing the adsorbate in the second heat exchange channel 210 to the first heat exchange channel 110, and may make the arrangement of the evaporator 100, the condenser 200, the first adsorber 300, and the second adsorber 400 flexible. In addition, the circulating flow of the adsorbent between the first heat exchange flow passage 110 and the second heat exchange flow passage 210 is also relatively stable.
By way of example, the first drive 900 may include, but is not limited to, a drive pump, a throttle valve, and the like.

In some examples, the evaporator 100 and the condenser 200 may be disposed side by side in a horizontal direction, and the evaporator 100 and the condenser 200 may be disposed below the first adsorber 300 and the second adsorber 400, and the adsorbent may circulate between the second heat exchange flow passage 210, the first heat exchange flow passage 110, the first chamber 320, and the second chamber 420 (see fig. 2) under the driving of the first driving device 900.
In other examples, the condenser 200 is disposed above the first adsorber 300 and the second adsorber 400, and the evaporator 100 is disposed below the first adsorber 300 and the second adsorber 400. In this way, after the adsorbate in the first heat exchange flow channel 110 evaporates, the adsorbate can flow into the first chamber 320 or the second chamber 420 under the action of self-elevating force, after the adsorbate adsorbed on the first adsorbate and the second adsorbate is heated and evaporated, the adsorbate can flow into the second heat exchange flow channel 210 under the action of self-elevating force, and after the adsorbate in the second heat exchange flow channel 210 condenses, the adsorbate can flow into the first heat exchange flow channel 110 under the action of self-elevating force, so that the circulation flow of the adsorbate between the first heat exchange flow channel 110 and the second heat exchange flow channel 210 can be realized.

When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, the inlet end of the first heat exchanger 310 is in communication with the output end of the second driving device 60, so that the inlet end of the first heat exchanger 310 is in communication with the outlet end of the cold source device 30 through the second driving device 60.
In this way, the second driving device 60 can provide power for flowing the medium in the cold source device 30 to the first heat exchanger 310 and the second heat exchanger 410, so that the medium flowing out of the cold source device 30 can flow in a stable and circulating manner.
By way of example, the second drive 60 may include, but is not limited to, a drive pump, a throttle valve, and the like.
When the cooling fluid treatment system comprises the first reversing device 700, the output end of the second driving device 60 is connected to the first reversing device 700, so that the first reversing device 700 is used for being connected to the outlet end of the cold source device 30 through the second driving device 60, and the second driving device 60 is used for enabling the medium in the cold source device 30 to flow to the first reversing device 700. The first reversing device 700 is used to communicate the inlet end of the first heat exchanger 310 with the outlet end of the cold source device 30 through the second driving device 60, or to communicate the inlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 with the outlet end of the cold source device 30 through the second driving device 60. Specifically, the first reversing device 700 communicates the inlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 with the output end of the second driving device 60 when the coolant treatment system is in the first state. When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, the first reversing device 700 communicates the inlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 with the output end of the second driving device 60.
In some possible embodiments, the data center further includes a coolant distribution device 40 (coolant distribution units, CDU), the coolant distribution device 40 including an eighth heat exchange flow path 41, the coolant distribution device 40 operable to dissipate heat from coolant within the eighth heat exchange flow path 41. The eighth heat exchange flow channel 41 has an inlet end and an outlet end, the inlet end of the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41 is used for allowing the cooling liquid to flow into the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41 so as to radiate the cooling liquid in the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41, and the outlet end of the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41 is used for allowing the cooling liquid radiated in the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41 to flow out of the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41.
The outlet end of the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41 is communicated with the inlet end of the liquid cooling device 20, and the inlet end of the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41 is connected with the outlet end of the first heat exchanger 310 and the outlet end of the second heat exchanger 410, so that the outlet end of the first heat exchanger 310 and the outlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 are connected with the inlet end of the liquid cooling device 20 through the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41. When the cooling liquid treatment system is in the first state, the outlet end of the first heat exchanger 310 is communicated with the inlet end of the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41, so that the outlet end of the first heat exchanger 310 is communicated with the inlet end of the liquid cooling device 20 through the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41. When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, the outlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 is in communication with the inlet end of the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41, so that the outlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 is in communication with the inlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20 through the eighth heat exchange flow channel 41.
In this way, after the cooling liquid flowing out from the liquid cooling device 20 exchanges heat through the first heat exchanger 310 or the second heat exchanger 410, the cooling liquid can enter the cooling liquid distribution device 40 to further dissipate heat, so that the temperature of the cooling liquid flowing back to the liquid cooling device 20 meets the requirement of the liquid inlet temperature of the liquid cooling device 20.
By way of example, the coolant treatment system may include a coolant distribution device 40.
For example, the coolant treatment system may not include the coolant distribution device 40, and the coolant distribution device 40 may be independent of the coolant treatment system.
For example, a fan blowing air toward the cooling liquid distribution device 40 may be provided at the cooling liquid distribution device 40, and heat radiating fins may be provided on the outer wall of the eighth heat exchanging channel 41 so that the cooling liquid in the eighth heat exchanging channel 41 may release heat.

Specifically, the second reversing device 800 communicates the outlet end of the first heat exchanger 310 with the inlet end of the eighth heat exchange flow passage 41 when the coolant treatment system is in the first state. When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, the second reversing device 800 communicates the outlet end of the second heat exchanger 410 with the inlet end of the eighth heat exchange flow passage 41.

In some possible embodiments, the first reversing device 700 includes a first four-way reversing valve 710. The first four-way reversing valve 710 includes a first port 711, a second port 712, a third port 713, and a fourth port 714, the first port 711 being in communication with an inlet end of the first heat exchanger 310, the second port 712 being in communication with an inlet end of the second heat exchanger 410, the third port 713 being for communication with an outlet end of the cold source device 30, and the fourth port 714 being for communication with an outlet end of the liquid cooling device 20.

When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, the first four-way reversing valve 710 communicates the first port 711 with the third port 713, and the second port 712 with the fourth port 714.
Thus, the first reversing device 700 has a simpler structure and is more convenient to control.

The second four-way selector valve 810 is used to communicate the fifth port 811 with the seventh port 813, the sixth port 812 with the eighth port 814, or to communicate the fifth port 811 with the eighth port 814, and the sixth port 812 with the seventh port 813. When the coolant treatment system is in the first state, the second four-way selector valve 810 communicates the fifth port 811 with the eighth port 814 and the sixth port 812 with the seventh port 813. When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, the second four-way selector valve 810 communicates the fifth port 811 with the seventh port 813 and the sixth port 812 with the eighth port 814.
Thus, the second reversing device 800 has a simpler structure and is more convenient to control.
In an example in which the outlet end of the seventh heat exchange flow passage 220 communicates with the inlet end of the cold source apparatus 30, the seventh port 813 may communicate with the inlet end of the seventh heat exchange flow passage 220 such that the seventh port 813 may be used to communicate with the inlet end of the cold source apparatus 30 through the seventh heat exchange flow passage 220.
In the example in which the inlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20 communicates with the outlet end of the eighth heat exchanging channel 41, the eighth port 814 is for communicating with the inlet end of the eighth heat exchanging channel 41, so that the eighth port 814 can be for communicating with the inlet end of the liquid cooling apparatus 20 through the eighth heat exchanging channel 41.
In the example where the first reversing device 700 includes the first four-way reversing valve 710 and the second reversing device 800 includes the second four-way reversing valve 810, the cooling liquid flowing out of the liquid cooling apparatus 20 and the medium flowing out of the cold source apparatus 30 may be the same medium, for example, both may be water.
In some examples where the first reversing device 700 includes a first four-way reversing valve 710 and the second reversing device 800 includes a second four-way reversing valve 810, the first four-way reversing valve 710 and the second four-way reversing valve 810 may be fixedly disposed above the first adsorber 300 and the second adsorber 400. (see FIG. 2)

The outlet end of the tenth valve 520 communicates with the inlet end of the second chamber 420, and the inlet end of the tenth valve 520 communicates with the outlet end of the first heat exchange flow passage 110.
When the coolant treatment system is in the first state, that is, when the second adsorber 400 adsorbs and the first adsorber 300 desorbs, the ninth valve 510 may be closed and the tenth valve 520 may be opened, so that the adsorbent flowing out of the first heat exchange flow passage 110 may enter the second chamber 420 and be adsorbed by the second adsorbent. When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, that is, the first adsorber 300 is adsorbing and the second adsorber 400 is desorbing, the ninth valve 510 may be opened and the tenth valve 520 may be closed, so that the adsorbent flowing out of the first heat exchange flow passage 110 may enter the first chamber 320 to be adsorbed by the first adsorbent.
By providing a ninth valve 510 and a tenth valve 520 to control the reversing, control of the inlet end of the first chamber 320 and the inlet end of the second chamber 420 may be more flexible. For example, in some specific scenarios, the ninth valve 510 and the tenth valve 520 are closed or opened simultaneously, or after one of the ninth valve 510 and the tenth valve 520 is completely closed or completely opened, the other of the ninth valve 510 and the tenth valve 520 is opened or closed.

When the coolant treatment system is in the second state, that is, when the first adsorber 300 performs adsorption and the second adsorber 400 performs desorption, the eleventh valve 610 may be closed and the twelfth valve 620 may be opened, so that the adsorbent desorbed from the second adsorbent may flow from the second chamber 420 into the second heat exchange flow channel 210.
By providing the eleventh valve 610 and the twelfth valve 620 to control the reversing, the control of the outlet end of the first chamber 320 and the outlet end of the second chamber 420 may be made more flexible. For example, in certain circumstances, the eleventh valve 610 and the twelfth valve 620 may be closed or opened simultaneously, or one of the eleventh valve 610 and the twelfth valve 620 may be fully closed or fully opened before the other of the eleventh valve 610 and the twelfth valve 620 is opened or closed.
If the ninth valve 510, the tenth valve 520, the eleventh valve 610 and the twelfth valve 620 are provided, if the first adsorber 300 fails, the ninth valve 510 and the eleventh valve 610 may be closed simultaneously to isolate the first adsorber 300 for maintenance or the like of the first adsorber 300. If the second adsorber 400 fails, the tenth valve 520 and the twelfth valve 620 may be closed simultaneously to isolate the second adsorber 400 for maintenance or the like of the second adsorber 400.

Specifically, the first three-way reversing valve communicates the port connecting the inlet end of the second chamber 420 with the port connecting the outlet end of the first heat exchange flow passage 110 when the coolant treatment system is in the first state. The first three-way reversing valve communicates a port connected to the inlet end of the first chamber 320 with a port connected to the outlet end of the first heat exchange flow passage 110 when the coolant treatment system is in the second state.
Thus, the structure of the third reversing device 500 is simpler and the control is more convenient.
The fourth reversing device 600 may include a second three-way reversing valve, where three ports of the second three-way reversing valve are respectively communicated with the outlet end of the first chamber 320, the outlet end of the second chamber 420 and the inlet end of the second heat exchange flow channel 210, and the outlet and inlet ends of the first chamber 320 and the inlet end of the second heat exchange flow channel 210 may be communicated by controlling the on-off of the flow path between the three ports of the second three-way reversing valve, or the outlet end of the second chamber 420 and the inlet end of the second heat exchange flow channel 210. Specifically, the second three-way reversing valve communicates a port connected to the outlet end of the first chamber 320 with a port connected to the inlet end of the second heat exchange flow path 210 when the coolant treatment system is in the first state. In the second state of the coolant treatment system, the second three-way reversing valve communicates the port connected to the outlet end of the second chamber 420 with the port connected to the inlet end of the first heat exchange flow passage 110. Thus, the fourth reversing device 600 can be simpler in structure and more convenient to control.
