| Abstract |
With the advancement of technology, the density of IT equipment, heat load and power consumption continue to increase in high density internal-load dominated buildings as datacenters. To improve the HVAC system’s energy performance and efficiency, there is a need to find methods of using outside air. Through cooling tower control that is based on outside wet-bulb temperature, the water-side economizer made it possible to achieve a maximum energy performance improvement of about 16.6% over the basic chilled water system, whereas the air-side economizer, through control based on outdoor air enthalpy, made it possible to achieve about 42.4% improvement. |
