Power conversion device
A partition member is disposed in a space portion between a rear surface of a housing and outer surfaces of a plurality of units. A first partition portion is disposed in a boundary portion between two units adjacent to each other in a vertical direction and extends in a right-left direction. A second partition portion and a third partition portion each are connected to a corresponding one of both ends of the first partition portion in the right-left direction and extend toward the upper surface. Air discharged from a first unit group located above the first partition portion is guided to flow through a first air channel to the upper surface. Air discharged from a second unit group located below the first partition portion is guided to flow through a second air channel to the upper surface.
1. A power conversion device comprising:
a housing having a rectangular parallelepiped shape;
a plurality of units stacked in a vertical direction and accommodated in the housing;
a plurality of fan units disposed on an upper surface of the housing; and
a partition member disposed in a space portion provided between a rear surface of the housing and outer surfaces of the units, wherein
each of the units incorporates a fan that introduces air into a corresponding unit of the units and discharges the introduced air toward the space portion,
the partition member includes
a first partition portion disposed in a boundary portion between two units adjacent to each other in the vertical direction among the units, and extending in a right-left direction of the housing, and
a second partition portion and a third partition portion each connected to a corresponding one of both ends of the first partition portion in the right-left direction and extending toward the upper surface of the housing,
a first air channel and a second air channel defined by the partition member are provided in a space between an inner surface of the housing and the outer surfaces of the units,
air discharged from a first unit group located above the first partition portion is guided through the first air channel to the upper surface of the housing,
air discharged from a second unit group located below the first partition portion is guided through the second air channel to the upper surface of the housing, and
the fan units include
a first fan unit located at a downstream end of the first air channel, and
a second fan unit and a third fan unit each located at a downstream end of the second air channel.
2. The power conversion device according to claim 1 , wherein
the first air channel is defined by a space provided in the space portion and defined by the partition member, and
the second air channel is defined by a space provided in the space portion and outside the space defined by the partition member, and a space portion between a side surface of the housing and side surfaces of the units.
3. The power conversion device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first fan unit, the second fan unit, and the third fan unit includes a plurality of fans arranged side by side on the upper surface of the housing.
4. The power conversion device according to claim 1 , wherein
the first fan unit is disposed on the upper surface of the housing to be close to the rear surface of the housing with respect to the second fan unit and the third fan unit, and
the second fan unit and the third fan unit each are disposed on a corresponding one of both ends of the housing in the right-left direction on the upper surface of the housing.
5. The power conversion device according to claim 1 , wherein
each of the units includes
a front surface and a rear surface each provided with an air vent, and
the fan, and
the fan introduces air from the front surface of a corresponding unit of the units and discharges the air from the rear surface of the corresponding unit toward the space portion.
6. The power conversion device according to claim 1 , wherein
the power conversion device is an uninterruptible power supply device connected between an AC power supply and a load, and
the units include a plurality of uninterruptible power supply units connected in parallel between the AC power supply and the load.
7. The power conversion device according to claim 6 , wherein
each of the uninterruptible power supply units includes
a converter that converts AC power supplied from the AC power supply into DC power, and
an inverter that,
in a normal state in which AC power is supplied from the AC power supply, converts the DC power generated by the converter into AC power, and supplies the converted AC power to the load, and
in a power failure state in which supply of AC power from the AC power supply is stopped, converts DC power stored in a power storage device into AC power and supplies the converted AC power to the load.
