In the Fall of 2008, Applied Math Modeling Inc., the UNH Data Center, and students from the UNH Mechanical Engi-neering Program collaborated on a project to improve the design and thermal efficiency of the UNH Data Center. This article reviews the procedure and results from this joint effort. Download pdf version.
The placement of computer equipment in a new or existing data center is not always obvious. In many cases, common sense placements will give rise to equipment hot spots resulting from inadequate airflow, even though there might be enough total cooling capacity in the room. CoolSim is an excellent tool for predicting the impact of placement decisions prior to implmentation. In this article the use of CoolSim to identify and correct poor equipment placement is reviewed.
