| Abstract |
The primary purpose of a computer room of data center and associated infrastructure is to support the operation of critical IT equipment. Over the years, IT is advancing at a rapid pace, resulting in relatively short product cycles and an the power density of IT equipment has been steadily increasing. All electrical equipment produces heat, which must be removed to prevent the equipment temperature from rising to an unacceptable level. High-density servers present a significant cooling changes. And there need to find best estimates of heat release for fully configured IT systems and a power density road map as well as work toward standardizing power and cooling of the equipment for seamless integration into the data center. This study presents two method for estimating power and cooling requirements and provides guidelines for determining the total heat load. |
