狮城有约 | 绿色无限：数据中心的高效制冷
一年到头 24 小时无休的数据中心，不仅疯狂吞噬电力，也造成大量碳排放。为保证服务器不会因过热而发生故障，冷却设备耗费的电力占总耗电量的约 40%。普通数据中心每年的电费都是千万元。 南大属下红点智能科技就掌握未来管理趋势，结合数码孪生和人工智能科技，锁定热点，及时为数据中心推荐精准有效的降温参数设置。 采访部分从 3:44 开始 红点智能科技产品总监何瑞圣解释：“数字孪生就是把一个实体的建筑物或者构造，把它变成一个在网络世界虚拟世界的一个三维模型。数据中心上架或者下架的动作，他想知道会导致什么风险，都可以通过数字孪生系统做一个模拟。” 以人工智能的软件监控，能够有效帮助数据中心规避风险，并尽可能达到最高效的能源使用率。 而另一间为服务器制冷的公司 KoolLogix，主打硬件设施。拥有数十年制冷技术经验的团队，将自然界的水循环系统搬到了制冷设备中。服务器后方的制冷剂不断汽化带走机器产生的热量，气体经过外部冷水降温，再液化回到液体状态，继续吸收热能，循环往复。 两家企业都已经在东南亚等区域国家施展拳脚，与更多数据中心合作和试验，不断完善和提升自己的技术。
