US Patent:
20100223085, Sep 2, 2010
Filed:
Feb 27, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/395556
Inventors:
David Thomas Gauthier - Seattle WA, US
Scott Thomas Seaton - Kirkland WA, US
Allan Joseph Wenzel - Seattle WA, US
Cheerei Cheng - Newcastle WA, US
Brian Clark Andersen - Kent WA, US
Daniel Gerard Costello - Redmond WA, US

Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06Q 50/00
G06F 1/28
G05D 23/19
G06F 1/30
G06Q 10/00
A62C 39/00
US Classification:
705 8, 700286, 700278, 700297, 700287, 169 60
Abstract:
In one example, a data center may be built in modular components that may be pre-manufactured and separately deployable. Each modular component may provide functionality such as server capacity, cooling capacity, fire protection, resistance to electrical failure. Some components may be added to the data center by connecting them to the center's utility spine, and others may be added by connecting them to other components. The spine itself may be a modular component, so that spine capacity can be expanded or contracted by adding or removing spine modules. The various components may implement functions that are part of standards for various levels of reliability for data centers. Thus, the reliability level that a data center meets may be increased or decreased to fit the circumstances by adding or removing components.

Data Center Docking Station And Cartridge

US Patent:
20130163185, Jun 27, 2013
Filed:
Dec 21, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/334021
Inventors:
Stephan W. Gilges - Seattle WA, US
Christian L. Belady - Mercer Island WA, US
David Thomas Gauthier - Seattle WA, US
Mark E. Shaw - Sammamish WA, US
Steven Solomon - Bellevue WA, US
Assignee:
MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 1/16
B23P 6/00
US Classification:
36167941, 2940208
Abstract:
A data center may be built from docking stations, and from removable and replaceable IT cartridges. In one example, a docking station is built that provides cooling capability, and other support capability, for IT equipment. An IT cartridge is coupled to the docking station, thereby allowing the IT equipment in the cartridge to receive cooling and other support from the docking station, without the cartridge having any cooling infrastructure (or without having a substantial cooling infrastructure). Since IT equipment may have a shorter useful life than cooling equipment (or other non-IT equipment), when the IT equipment has reached the end of its useful life, the IT cartridge can be retired, and replaced with a new IT cartridge, thereby allowing the longer-lived equipment in the docking station to be easily reused with new IT equipment.

Systems And Methods For Immersion-Cooled Datacenters

US Patent:
20220361378, Nov 10, 2022
Filed:
May 5, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/308739
Inventors:
- Redmond WA, US
Stephan Wayne GILGES - Seattle WA, US
Eric C. PETERSON - Woodinville WA, US
Sean Michael JAMES - Olympia WA, US
Christian L. BELADY - Mercer Island WA, US
Marcus Felipe FONTOURA - Medina WA, US
Ioannis MANOUSAKIS - Redmond WA, US
Bharath RAMAKRISHNAN - Bellevue WA, US
International Classification:
H05K 7/20
Abstract:
A thermal management system for cooling electronic devices includes an immersion cooling system, a vapor buffer tank, and a liquid buffer tank. The immersion cooling system includes an immersion tank defining an immersion chamber, a working fluid in the immersion chamber, and a condenser. A liquid portion of the working fluid defines an immersion bath in the immersion chamber and a vapor portion defines a headspace above the immersion bath in the immersion chamber. The condenser condenses the vapor portion of the working fluid to the liquid portion of the working fluid. The vapor buffer tank is in fluid communication with the headspace, and a vapor valve selectively allows fluid communication between the vapor buffer tank and the headspace. The liquid buffer tank is in fluid communication with the immersion chamber, and a liquid valve selectively allows fluid communication between the liquid buffer tank and the immersion chamber.

Gas Distribution System Within Temperature Differentiated Environments

US Patent:
20160004263, Jan 7, 2016
Filed:
Jul 2, 2014
Appl. No.:
14/322909
Inventors:
- Redmond WA, US
Christian L. Belady - Mercer Island WA, US
Stephan W. Gilges - Seattle WA, US
Sriram Sankar - Kirkland WA, US
John Siegler - Carnation WA, US
Brian Andersen - Kent WA, US

J Darrin Schroeder - San Antonio TX, US
International Classification:
G05D 23/00
E04B 9/00
E04B 5/48
Abstract:
Electrical power is provided to power consuming, heat-exhausting devices by multiple gas-fueled electrical power sources located near such devices. Exhaust heat from such devices is utilized as intake cooling air for the gas-fueled power sources, thereby excluding them from cooling capacity requirements. The gas piping delivering gas to gas-fueled power sources is positioned so as to be within hot aisles comprising exhaust heat. The gas piping is located up high for lighter than air gasses and near the floor for heavier than air gasses, with leak detection located nearby. Additionally, gas piping is externally coated with material that visually indicates a leak. By locating gas piping in the hot aisle, exhausted heat increases temperature and, thereby, pressure of the gas, resulting in more efficient gas distribution through the piping and preventing valve freezing. Furthermore, the gas piping is located after potential ignition sources in the airstream.
