儲氣模組及兩相浸入式冷卻系統 Gas storage module and two-phase immersion cooling system

本發明關於一種儲氣模組及兩相浸入式冷卻系統,尤指一種將半透膜與控制閥設置於儲氣裝置之儲氣模組及裝設有此儲氣模組之兩相浸入式冷卻系統。 The present invention relates to a gas storage module and a two-phase immersion cooling system, and in particular, to a gas storage module with a semipermeable membrane and a control valve installed in a gas storage device and a two-phase immersion cooling system equipped with the gas storage module. cooling system.

兩相浸入式冷卻系統係利用介電液以相變化的方式將熱量帶離電子元件。兩相浸入式冷卻系統中通常具有儲氣裝置,其中儲氣裝置可暫時容納含有介電液蒸氣、空氣與水蒸氣之混合氣體。然而,在儲存氣體時,儲氣裝置中會有部分空間用來存放混合氣體中不參與熱交換的空氣與水蒸氣,進而造成儲氣裝置之儲存空間的浪費。 Two-phase immersion cooling systems use a dielectric fluid to move heat away from electronic components through a phase change. Two-phase immersion cooling systems usually have a gas storage device, where the gas storage device can temporarily contain a mixed gas containing dielectric liquid vapor, air and water vapor. However, when storing gas, part of the space in the gas storage device is used to store air and water vapor in the mixed gas that do not participate in heat exchange, thus causing a waste of storage space in the gas storage device.

本發明提供一種將半透膜與控制閥設置於儲氣裝置之儲氣模組及裝設有此儲氣模組之兩相浸入式冷卻系統,以解決上述問題。 The present invention provides a gas storage module with a semipermeable membrane and a control valve installed in a gas storage device and a two-phase immersion cooling system equipped with the gas storage module to solve the above problems.

根據一實施例,本發明之儲氣模組包含一儲氣裝置、一控制閥以及至少一半透膜。儲氣裝置具有一頂板,且頂板具有複數個第一通孔。控制閥連接於頂板。至少一半透膜設置於頂板上且覆蓋複數個第一通孔。流入儲氣裝置之一混合氣體中的空氣與水蒸氣經由至少一半透膜排出至外界。 According to one embodiment, the gas storage module of the present invention includes a gas storage device, a control valve and at least a semipermeable membrane. The gas storage device has a top plate, and the top plate has a plurality of first through holes. The control valve is connected to the top plate. At least a semipermeable membrane is disposed on the top plate and covers a plurality of first through holes. The air and water vapor in the mixed gas flowing into the gas storage device are discharged to the outside through at least a semipermeable membrane.

根據另一實施例,本發明之兩相浸入式冷卻系統包含如上所述之儲氣模組、一冷凝器以及一冷卻槽。冷凝器連接於儲氣裝置。冷卻槽連接於冷凝器。 According to another embodiment, the two-phase immersion cooling system of the present invention includes the gas storage module as described above, a condenser and a cooling tank. The condenser is connected to the gas storage device. The cooling tank is connected to the condenser.

綜上所述,本發明係將半透膜與控制閥設置於儲氣裝置。因此,流入儲氣裝置之混合氣體中的空氣與水蒸氣即可經由半透膜排出至外界,而混合氣體中的介電液蒸氣會被限制於儲氣裝置內部。藉此,本發明即可減少儲氣裝置內的空氣與水蒸氣的量,提昇混合氣體內的介電液蒸氣濃度,增加介電液蒸氣的儲存效率。此外,由於介電液蒸氣之密度高於空氣與水蒸氣之密度,較多的空氣與水蒸氣會位於混合氣體上部。本發明可將控制閥設置於儲氣裝置上方的頂板,以降低經由控制閥排出至外界之介電液蒸氣的量,進而降低介電液的損耗。 To sum up, the present invention disposes the semipermeable membrane and the control valve in the gas storage device. Therefore, the air and water vapor in the mixed gas flowing into the gas storage device can be discharged to the outside through the semipermeable membrane, while the dielectric liquid vapor in the mixed gas will be restricted inside the gas storage device. Thereby, the present invention can reduce the amount of air and water vapor in the gas storage device, increase the concentration of dielectric liquid vapor in the mixed gas, and increase the storage efficiency of dielectric liquid vapor. In addition, since the density of dielectric liquid vapor is higher than that of air and water vapor, more air and water vapor will be located in the upper part of the mixed gas. The present invention can dispose the control valve on the top plate above the gas storage device to reduce the amount of dielectric liquid vapor discharged to the outside through the control valve, thereby reducing the loss of dielectric liquid.

Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a two-phase immersion cooling system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 is a perspective view of the gas storage module 10 in Figure 1. Figure 3 The figure is another perspective view of the gas storage module 10 in Figure 1, Figure 4 is a partial exploded view of the gas storage module 10 in Figure 3, and Figure 5 is the gas storage module 10 in Figure 1 Figure 6 is another schematic diagram of the gas storage module 10 in Figure 1, and Figure 7 is a functional block diagram of the two-phase immersion cooling system 1 in Figure 1.

如第1圖所示,兩相浸入式冷卻系統1包含一儲氣模組10、一冷凝器12以及一冷卻槽14,且儲氣模組10包含一儲氣裝置100。冷凝器12連接於儲氣裝置100,且冷卻槽14連接於冷凝器12。冷卻槽14儲存有低沸點之介電液140,電子元件(未繪示於圖中)可浸入介電液140中,介電液140在吸收電子元件產生的熱量後會蒸發為蒸氣。介電液蒸氣會與冷卻槽14內部空氣及水蒸氣混合為混合氣體。當冷卻槽14之壓力增加時,混合氣體會流入冷凝器12。冷凝器12可將混合氣體中的介電液蒸氣冷凝回收,以減少混合氣體體積,且降低介電液蒸氣的耗損。 As shown in FIG. 1 , the two-phase immersion cooling system 1 includes a gas storage module 10 , a condenser 12 and a cooling tank 14 , and the gas storage module 10 includes a gas storage device 100 . The condenser 12 is connected to the gas storage device 100 , and the cooling tank 14 is connected to the condenser 12 . The cooling tank 14 stores a dielectric liquid 140 with a low boiling point. Electronic components (not shown in the figure) can be immersed in the dielectric liquid 140. The dielectric liquid 140 will evaporate into vapor after absorbing the heat generated by the electronic components. The dielectric liquid vapor will be mixed with the air and water vapor inside the cooling tank 14 to form a mixed gas. When the pressure of the cooling tank 14 increases, the mixed gas will flow into the condenser 12 . The condenser 12 can condense and recover the dielectric liquid vapor in the mixed gas to reduce the volume of the mixed gas and reduce the loss of the dielectric liquid vapor.

如第2圖至第4圖所示,儲氣模組10另包含一控制閥102以及至少一半透膜104。此外,儲氣裝置100具有一頂板1000,且頂板1000具有複數個第一通孔1002。控制閥102連接於頂板1000。控制閥102可選擇性地使儲氣裝置100連通於外界或使儲氣裝置100與外界隔絕。在本實施例中,控制閥102可為電磁閥,但不以此為限。在本實施例中,儲氣模組10可包含二半透膜104,且頂板1000在控制閥102之相對二側可具有複數個第一通孔1002。半透膜104設置於頂板1000上且覆蓋複數個第一通孔1002。在本實施例中,半透膜104可以黏貼的方式固定於頂板1000上,但不以此為限。半透膜104可容許混合氣體中分子較小的空氣與水蒸氣通過,且可防止分子較大的介電液蒸氣通過。在本實施例中,半透膜104可為聚氨酯膜(polyurethane film,PU film)、3M Tegaderm防水透氣敷料(transparent film dressing)或其它類似薄膜,視實際應用而定。 As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 , the gas storage module 10 further includes a control valve 102 and at least a semipermeable membrane 104 . In addition, the gas storage device 100 has a top plate 1000, and the top plate 1000 has a plurality of first through holes 1002. The control valve 102 is connected to the top plate 1000 . The control valve 102 can selectively connect the gas storage device 100 to the outside world or isolate the gas storage device 100 from the outside world. In this embodiment, the control valve 102 may be a solenoid valve, but is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the gas storage module 10 may include two semipermeable membranes 104, and the top plate 1000 may have a plurality of first through holes 1002 on two opposite sides of the control valve 102. The semipermeable membrane 104 is disposed on the top plate 1000 and covers the plurality of first through holes 1002 . In this embodiment, the semipermeable membrane 104 can be fixed on the top plate 1000 in an adhesive manner, but is not limited to this. The semipermeable membrane 104 can allow air and water vapor with smaller molecules in the mixed gas to pass through, and can prevent dielectric liquid vapor with larger molecules from passing through. In this embodiment, the semipermeable film 104 can be a polyurethane film (PU film), 3M Tegaderm waterproof breathable dressing (transparent film) dressing) or other similar films, depending on the actual application.

當兩相浸入式冷卻系統1正常運作時,可控制控制閥102使儲氣裝置100與外界隔絕。此時,流入儲氣裝置100之混合氣體中的空氣與水蒸氣即可經由半透膜104排出至外界,而混合氣體中的介電液蒸氣會被限制於儲氣裝置100內部。藉此,本發明即可減少儲氣裝置100內的空氣與水蒸氣的量,提昇混合氣體內的介電液蒸氣濃度,增加介電液蒸氣的儲存效率。此外,當流入儲氣裝置100之混合氣體的量過多時,可控制控制閥102使儲氣裝置100連通於外界,以將多餘的混合氣體排出至外界,避免儲氣裝置100損壞。由於介電液蒸氣之密度高於空氣與水蒸氣之密度,較多的空氣與水蒸氣會位於混合氣體上部。本發明可將控制閥102設置於儲氣裝置100上方的頂板1000,以降低經由控制閥102排出至外界之介電液蒸氣的量,進而降低介電液的損耗。 When the two-phase immersion cooling system 1 is operating normally, the control valve 102 can be controlled to isolate the gas storage device 100 from the outside world. At this time, the air and water vapor in the mixed gas flowing into the gas storage device 100 can be discharged to the outside through the semipermeable membrane 104 , while the dielectric liquid vapor in the mixed gas will be restricted inside the gas storage device 100 . Thereby, the present invention can reduce the amount of air and water vapor in the gas storage device 100, increase the concentration of dielectric liquid vapor in the mixed gas, and increase the storage efficiency of dielectric liquid vapor. In addition, when the amount of mixed gas flowing into the gas storage device 100 is too much, the control valve 102 can be controlled to connect the gas storage device 100 to the outside world to discharge the excess mixed gas to the outside world to avoid damage to the gas storage device 100 . Since the density of dielectric liquid vapor is higher than that of air and water vapor, more air and water vapor will be located in the upper part of the mixed gas. In the present invention, the control valve 102 can be disposed on the top plate 1000 above the gas storage device 100 to reduce the amount of dielectric liquid vapor discharged to the outside through the control valve 102, thereby reducing the loss of the dielectric liquid.

如第1圖與第2圖所示,儲氣模組10可另包含一殼體106、一滑輪108、一配重塊110以及一牽引件112。在本實施例中,儲氣裝置100、控制閥102、半透膜104、滑輪108、配重塊110、牽引件112與冷凝器12皆可設置於殼體106中。在本實施例中,儲氣模組10可包含二滑輪108、二配重塊110以及二牽引件112,分別設置於儲氣裝置100之相對二側,但不以此為限。滑輪108連接於殼體106且位於儲氣裝置100上方。牽引件112環繞滑輪108,其中牽引件112之二端分別連接於儲氣裝置100之頂板1000與配重塊110。當混合氣體流入或排出儲氣裝置100時,配重塊110可經由牽引件112隨著頂板1000上下移動,以支撐頂板1000。此外,殼體106具有一外牆1060以及一內牆1062,其中外牆1060與內牆1062相對。配重塊110可位於外牆1060與內牆1062之間。當配重塊110上下移動時,外牆1060與內牆1062可限制配重塊110的橫向偏移。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the gas storage module 10 may further include a housing 106 , a pulley 108 , a counterweight 110 and a traction component 112 . In this embodiment, the gas storage device 100, the control valve 102, the semipermeable membrane 104, the pulley 108, the counterweight 110, the traction member 112 and the condenser 12 can all be disposed in the housing 106. In this embodiment, the gas storage module 10 may include two pulleys 108, two counterweights 110 and two traction members 112, which are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the gas storage device 100, but are not limited to this. The pulley 108 is connected to the housing 106 and located above the gas storage device 100 . The traction member 112 surrounds the pulley 108, and the two ends of the traction member 112 are respectively connected to the top plate 1000 and the counterweight 110 of the gas storage device 100. When the mixed gas flows into or out of the gas storage device 100, the counterweight 110 can move up and down along with the top plate 1000 via the traction member 112 to support the top plate 1000. In addition, the housing 106 has an outer wall 1060 and an inner wall 1062, wherein the outer wall 1060 is opposite to the inner wall 1062. Counterweight 110 may be located between exterior wall 1060 and interior wall 1062. When the counterweight 110 moves up and down, the outer wall 1060 and the inner wall 1062 can limit the lateral deflection of the counterweight 110 .

在本實施例中,儲氣裝置100可為風箱型。因此,當混合氣體流入儲氣裝置100時,頂板1000會上升,且配重塊110會下降。反之,當混合氣體排出儲 氣裝置100時,頂板1000會下降,且配重塊110會上升。如第5圖所示,當儲氣裝置100之體積最小時,配重塊110係位於最高位置P1。如第6圖所示,當儲氣裝置100之體積最大時,配重塊110係位於最低位置P2。 In this embodiment, the gas storage device 100 may be of bellows type. Therefore, when the mixed gas flows into the gas storage device 100, the top plate 1000 will rise and the counterweight 110 will fall. On the contrary, when the mixed gas is discharged from the storage When the device 100 is inflated, the top plate 1000 will drop and the counterweight 110 will rise. As shown in Figure 5, when the volume of the gas storage device 100 is the smallest, the counterweight 110 is located at the highest position P1. As shown in Figure 6, when the volume of the gas storage device 100 is the largest, the counterweight 110 is located at the lowest position P2.

如第5圖至第7圖所示,兩相浸入式冷卻系統1可另包含一控制器16,且儲氣模組10可另包含一感測模組114,其中感測模組114設置於殼體106中,且感測模組114與控制閥102電性連接於控制器16。感測模組114用以感測配重塊110是否超出一預定範圍R,其中預定範圍R由最高位置P1與最低位置P2界定。當配重塊110超出預定範圍R時,表示儲氣裝置100中已無空間容納更多氣體或已無氣體可供應冷卻槽14。此時,控制器16可開啟控制閥102使儲氣裝置100連通於外界,以排除多餘的氣體至外界或自外界吸入氣體,以維持冷卻槽14內的壓力。 另一方面,當配重塊110在預定範圍R內時,表示冷卻槽14內的壓力穩定。此時,控制器16可關閉控制閥102使儲氣裝置100與外界隔絕。 As shown in Figures 5 to 7, the two-phase immersion cooling system 1 may further include a controller 16, and the gas storage module 10 may further include a sensing module 114, wherein the sensing module 114 is disposed on In the housing 106 , the sensing module 114 and the control valve 102 are electrically connected to the controller 16 . The sensing module 114 is used to sense whether the counterweight 110 exceeds a predetermined range R, where the predetermined range R is defined by the highest position P1 and the lowest position P2. When the counterweight 110 exceeds the predetermined range R, it means that there is no space in the gas storage device 100 to accommodate more gas or there is no gas to supply to the cooling tank 14 . At this time, the controller 16 can open the control valve 102 to connect the gas storage device 100 to the outside world, so as to discharge excess gas to the outside world or suck in gas from the outside world to maintain the pressure in the cooling tank 14 . On the other hand, when the counterweight 110 is within the predetermined range R, it means that the pressure in the cooling tank 14 is stable. At this time, the controller 16 can close the control valve 102 to isolate the gas storage device 100 from the outside world.

在本實施例中,感測模組114可包含一第一發光元件1140、一第一光感測器1142、一第二發光元件1144以及一第二光感測器1146,其中第一光感測器1142相對第一發光元件1140設置,且第二光感測器1146相對第二發光元件1144設置。第一發光元件1140與第二發光元件1144可為發光二極體(Light Emitting Diode,LED),但不以此為限。第一發光元件1140、第一光感測器1142、第二發光元件1144與第二光感測器1146可設置於殼體106之外牆1060與內牆1062上,但不以此為限。此外,第一發光元件1140與第一光感測器1142可設置於對應最高位置P1之位置,且第二發光元件1144與第二光感測器1146可設置於對應最低位置P2之位置。 In this embodiment, the sensing module 114 may include a first light-emitting element 1140, a first light sensor 1142, a second light-emitting element 1144 and a second light sensor 1146, where the first light sensor The detector 1142 is disposed relative to the first light-emitting element 1140, and the second photo sensor 1146 is disposed relative to the second light-emitting element 1144. The first light-emitting element 1140 and the second light-emitting element 1144 may be light emitting diodes (LEDs), but are not limited thereto. The first light-emitting element 1140, the first light sensor 1142, the second light-emitting element 1144 and the second light sensor 1146 can be disposed on the outer wall 1060 and the inner wall 1062 of the housing 106, but are not limited thereto. In addition, the first light-emitting element 1140 and the first photo sensor 1142 may be disposed at a position corresponding to the highest position P1, and the second light-emitting element 1144 and the second photo sensor 1146 may be disposed at a position corresponding to the lowest position P2.

當兩相浸入式冷卻系統1啟動時,控制器16可先關閉控制閥102使儲氣裝置100與外界隔絕。同時,第一發光元件1140朝第一光感測器1142發出一第一光線,且第二發光元件1144朝第二光感測器1146發出一第二光線。如第5圖所 示,當配重塊110位於最高位置P1時,配重塊110係位於第一發光元件1140與第一光感測器1142之間,以遮擋第一發光元件1140發出之第一光線。另一方面,如第6圖所示,當配重塊110位於最低位置P2時,配重塊110係位於第二發光元件1144與第二光感測器1146之間,以遮擋第二發光元件1144發出之第二光線。當配重塊110位於最高位置P1或最低位置P2時,控制器16即會判斷配重塊110超出預定範圍R。接著,控制器16即會開啟控制閥102使儲氣裝置100連通於外界,以排除多餘的氣體至外界或自外界吸入氣體,以維持冷卻槽14內的壓力。反之,當配重塊110位於最高位置P1與最低位置P2之間時,控制器16即會判斷配重塊110在預定範圍R內。接著,控制器16即會關閉控制閥102使儲氣裝置100與外界隔絕。需說明的是,無論控制閥102開啟或關閉,在一段時間後,控制器16會再次判斷配重塊110是否超出預定範圍R,以決定控制閥102開啟或關閉。 When the two-phase immersion cooling system 1 is started, the controller 16 can first close the control valve 102 to isolate the gas storage device 100 from the outside world. At the same time, the first light-emitting element 1140 emits a first light toward the first light sensor 1142, and the second light-emitting element 1144 emits a second light toward the second light sensor 1146. As shown in Figure 5 It shows that when the counterweight 110 is at the highest position P1, the counterweight 110 is located between the first light-emitting element 1140 and the first light sensor 1142 to block the first light emitted by the first light-emitting element 1140. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 6 , when the counterweight 110 is located at the lowest position P2, the counterweight 110 is located between the second light-emitting element 1144 and the second light sensor 1146 to block the second light-emitting element. The second light emitted by 1144. When the counterweight 110 is located at the highest position P1 or the lowest position P2, the controller 16 determines that the counterweight 110 exceeds the predetermined range R. Then, the controller 16 will open the control valve 102 to connect the gas storage device 100 to the outside world, so as to discharge excess gas to the outside world or suck in gas from the outside world to maintain the pressure in the cooling tank 14 . On the contrary, when the counterweight 110 is located between the highest position P1 and the lowest position P2, the controller 16 determines that the counterweight 110 is within the predetermined range R. Then, the controller 16 will close the control valve 102 to isolate the gas storage device 100 from the outside world. It should be noted that no matter whether the control valve 102 is opened or closed, after a period of time, the controller 16 will again determine whether the counterweight 110 exceeds the predetermined range R to decide whether the control valve 102 is opened or closed.

如第8圖與第9圖所示,儲氣模組10'包含複數個半透膜104'。上述之儲氣模組10可以儲氣模組10'替換。在本實施例中,各半透膜104'分別覆蓋複數個第一通孔1002的其中之一。因此,各半透膜104'可單獨更換,進而降低維護成本。 在本實施例中,各半透膜104'可以黏貼的方式固定於頂板1000上,但不以此為限。各半透膜104'可容許混合氣體中分子較小的空氣與水蒸氣通過,且可防止分子較大的介電液蒸氣通過。在本實施例中,半透膜104'可為聚氨酯膜、3M Tegaderm防水透氣敷料或其它類似薄膜,視實際應用而定。 As shown in Figures 8 and 9, the gas storage module 10' includes a plurality of semi-permeable membranes 104'. The above-mentioned gas storage module 10 can be replaced by the gas storage module 10'. In this embodiment, each semipermeable membrane 104' covers one of the plurality of first through holes 1002 respectively. Therefore, each semipermeable membrane 104' can be replaced individually, thereby reducing maintenance costs. In this embodiment, each semipermeable membrane 104' can be fixed on the top plate 1000 in an adhesive manner, but is not limited to this. Each semipermeable membrane 104' can allow air and water vapor with smaller molecules in the mixed gas to pass through, and can prevent dielectric liquid vapor with larger molecules from passing through. In this embodiment, the semipermeable membrane 104' can be a polyurethane membrane, 3M Tegaderm waterproof breathable dressing, or other similar films, depending on the actual application.

The above-mentioned gas storage module 10 can be replaced by the gas storage module 10". In this embodiment, the gas storage module 10" can include two semipermeable membranes 104, four mesh structures 116 and two fixing members 118. Each fixing member 118 fixes the semipermeable membrane 104 and the two mesh structures 116 on the top plate 1000, and the semipermeable membrane 104 is sandwiched between the two mesh structures 116, as shown in Figure 12. At this time, the plurality of first through holes 1002 are aligned with the plurality of second through holes 1180 , and the semipermeable membrane 104 and the two mesh structures 116 cover the plurality of first through holes 1002 and the plurality of second through holes 1180 . In this embodiment, the fixing member 118 can be locked to the top plate 1000 by screws 120 to fix the semipermeable membrane 104 and the two mesh structures 116 between the top plate 1000 and the fixing member 118 . Through the above configuration, the deformation of the semipermeable membrane 104 can be further reduced, and the semipermeable membrane 104 can be prevented from being scratched due to contact with the fixing member 118 .

請參閱第13圖,第13圖為根據本發明另一實施例之儲氣模組10'''的立體圖。 Please refer to Figure 13, which is a perspective view of a gas storage module 10''' according to another embodiment of the present invention.

如第13圖所示,儲氣模組10'''與上述之儲氣模組10的主要不同之處在於,儲氣模組10'''之儲氣裝置100'為袋型。因此,當混合氣體流入儲氣裝置100'時,頂板1000會下降,且配重塊110會上升。反之,當混合氣體排出儲氣裝置100'時,頂板1000會上升,且配重塊110會下降。換言之,當儲氣裝置100'之體積最小時,該配重塊110會位於第5圖與第6圖所示之最低位置P2;當儲氣裝置100'之體積最大時,配重塊110位於會位於第5圖與第6圖所示之最高位置P1。上述之儲氣模組10可以儲氣模組10'''替換。此外,上述各實施例之半透膜的安裝方式亦適用於儲氣模組10''',在此不再贅述。 As shown in Figure 13, the main difference between the gas storage module 10''' and the above-mentioned gas storage module 10 is that the gas storage device 100' of the gas storage module 10'''' is a bag type. Therefore, when the mixed gas flows into the gas storage device 100', the top plate 1000 will drop and the counterweight 110 will rise. On the contrary, when the mixed gas is discharged from the gas storage device 100', the top plate 1000 will rise and the counterweight 110 will fall. In other words, when the volume of the gas storage device 100' is the smallest, the counterweight 110 will be located at the lowest position P2 shown in Figures 5 and 6; when the volume of the gas storage device 100' is the largest, the counterweight 110 will be at the lowest position P2 shown in Figures 5 and 6. It will be located at the highest position P1 shown in Figures 5 and 6. The above-mentioned gas storage module 10 can be replaced by the gas storage module 10''''. In addition, the installation method of the semipermeable membrane in each of the above embodiments is also applicable to the gas storage module 10''', and will not be described again here.

綜上所述,本發明係將半透膜與控制閥設置於儲氣裝置。因此,流入儲氣裝置之混合氣體中的空氣與水蒸氣即可經由半透膜排出至外界,而混合氣體中的介電液蒸氣會被限制於儲氣裝置內部。藉此,本發明即可減少儲氣裝置內的空氣與水蒸氣的量,提昇混合氣體內的介電液蒸氣濃度,增加介電液蒸氣的儲存效率。此外,由於介電液蒸氣之密度高於空氣與水蒸氣之密度,較多 的空氣與水蒸氣會位於混合氣體上部。本發明可將控制閥設置於儲氣裝置上方的頂板,以降低經由控制閥排出至外界之介電液蒸氣的量,進而降低介電液的損耗。 To sum up, the present invention disposes the semipermeable membrane and the control valve in the gas storage device. Therefore, the air and water vapor in the mixed gas flowing into the gas storage device can be discharged to the outside through the semipermeable membrane, while the dielectric liquid vapor in the mixed gas will be restricted inside the gas storage device. Thereby, the present invention can reduce the amount of air and water vapor in the gas storage device, increase the concentration of dielectric liquid vapor in the mixed gas, and increase the storage efficiency of dielectric liquid vapor. In addition, since the density of dielectric liquid vapor is higher than that of air and water vapor, more of air and water vapor will be located on top of the mixed gas. The present invention can dispose the control valve on the top plate above the gas storage device to reduce the amount of dielectric liquid vapor discharged to the outside through the control valve, thereby reducing the loss of dielectric liquid.
