面向算电协同的数据中心算力-冷力全栈调度与控制

Full-stack scheduling and control of computing and cooling resources in data centers for computing–electricity synergy

  • 摘要: 针对高密度数据中心算力调度与冷却调控存在多时间尺度强耦合、协同优化难度大的问题,提出一种基于模型预测控制(model predictive control,MPC)的算力–冷力全栈协同的双层优化方法。该方法构建包含服务器产热、冷却回路及关键换热部件的多物理场耦合仿真系统,其策略上层以小时级进行日前经济调度,综合考虑分时电价与室外温度,生成最优的服务器功耗负载率与机房入口冷却流量参考轨迹;下层以分钟级进行滚动优化,实时调节冷却执行机构与负载分配跟踪参考值并确保芯片温度安全。仿真结果表明,该策略可在保障任务完成与设备安全的前提下,使数据中心平均电源使用效率(power usage effectiveness,PUE)由1.18降至1.14,总成本降低13.3%;进一步引入服务等级协议违约率(service level agreement violation,SLAV)作为多目标优化要素后,在能耗仅增加0.42%的条件下,使任务违约率降低了34%,有效提升了数据中心能效、经济性与服务质量。

     

    Abstract: To address the challenges of strong multi-timescale coupling and complex coordination between computing workload scheduling and cooling control in high-density data centers, a bi-level full-stack synergistic optimization method for computing and cooling resources is proposed based on model predictive control (MPC). The approach leverages a multi-physics coupled simulation system that integrates key components including server heat generation, cooling loops, and heat exchange components. The framework employs a hierarchical control architecture: the upper layer performs day-ahead economic dispatch at an hourly timescale, generating optimal reference trajectories for server power load ratio and inlet cooling flow rate by jointly considering time-of-use electricity pricing and outdoor temperature; the lower layer executes minute-level rolling optimization to dynamically adjust cooling actuators and load allocation, ensuring precise tracking of references while maintaining chip temperature safety. The simulation results show that, while guaranteeing task completion and equipment safety, the proposed strategy reduces the average power usage effectiveness (PUE) of the data center from 1.18 to 1.14 and lowers total operational cost by 13.3%. Furthermore, when the service level agreement violation (SLAV) rate, which is defined as the proportion of tasks failing to meet their deadline, is incorporated as an additional objective in the multi-objective optimization, the average violation rate is reduced by 34% with only a 0.42% increase in energy consumption. These results confirm that the proposed framework effectively enhances the energy efficiency, economic performance, and quality of service of data centers.
