This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design of computer rooms and telecommunications facilities is different in fundamental ways from the design of facilities used primarily for human occupancy. ASHRAE has not, until now, published a basic reference text to provide an overview of the special design needs of datacom facilities. As the power density of datacom equipment continues to increase, this need has grown more severe. This book covers basic design considerations for data and communications equipment centers. The book is divided into two parts. Part I, Datacom Facility Basics, includes chapters on datacom design criteria (temperature, temperature rate of change, relative humidity, dew point, and filtration), HVAC load, computer room cooling (including both air and liquid cooling), and air distribution. Part II of the book, Other Considerations, includes chapters on ancillary spaces (battery plants, emergency generator rooms, burn-in rooms and test labs, and spare parts rooms), contamination, acoustical noise emissions, structural and seismic design and testing, fire detection and suppression, commissioning, availability and redundancy, and energy efficiency. This book does not cover electrical or electronic systems design and distribution. The primary changes for this second edition center on the updated thermal envelope and relate to the recommended temperatures at the inlets of the equipment operating in datacom facilities. This book is the third in the ASHRAE Datacom Series, authored by ASHRAE Technical Committee 9.9, Mission Critical Facilities, Technology Spaces and Electronic Equipment. This series provides comprehensive treatment of datacom cooling and related subjects.
Download or read book Liquid Cooling Guidelines for Datacom Equipment Centers written by and published by Ashrae. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dual unitsData center IT equipment today is predominantly air cooled. However, with rack heat loads steadily climbing, the ability for many data centers to deliver either adequate airflow rates or sufficient chilled air is now being stretched to the limit. These trends in the heat load generated from IT equipment can have detrimental side effects, such as decresed equipment availability, wasted floor space, and inefficient cooling system operation. This situation is creating a need for implementing liquid cooling solutions. The overall goals of the liquid implementations include aspects such as trasferring as much waste heat to the facility liquid cooling loop as possible, reducing the overall volume of airflow needed by the racks, and reducing processor temperatures such that increased compute performance can be achieved.This book on liquid cooling is divided into six chapters and includes definitions for liquid and air cooling as it applies to the IT equipment, describing the various liquid loops that can exist in a building that houses a data center. It also provides the reader an overview of the chilled-water and condenser water systems and an overview of datacom equipment cooling options. The book also bridges the liquid cooling systems by providing guidelines on the interface requirements between the chilled-water system and the technology cooling system and outlines the requirements of those liquid-cooled systems that attach to a datacom electronics rack and are implemented to aid in data center thermal management.This book is the fourth in a series of datacom books published by ASHRAE and authored by TC 9.9, Mission Critical Facilities, Technology Spaces, and Electronic Equipment.

This book was released on 2012-09-20 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercial buildings account for a huge percentage of power consumption today, and data centers play a major role in that. Businesses are spending an increasingly large portion of their IT budgets on maintenance, power and cooling. In 2006 alone, for every dollar spent worldwide on new servers, another 50 cents was spent on energy to power and cool them. Data centers account for about 5% of most companies' utility bills. As data processing requirements and energy prices continue to rise, it becomes increasingly important to plan, build and monitor data center facilities for maximum efficiency and effectiveness. The Datacom Series CD, 3rd Edition, now includes all ten datacom publications and is fully searchable and printable.

Download or read book Smarter Data Centers Achieving Greater Efficiency written by Mike Ebbers and published by IBM Redbooks. This book was released on 2011-10-21 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we move towards becoming a smarter planet and the world becomes more instrumented, interconnected, and intelligent, the demands for data center resources are increasing rapidly. Smaller and more densely packed servers providing greater amounts of computing power can substantially increase power and cooling needs, while growing data volumes necessitate larger storage and network bandwidth capacities. Environmental and regulatory requirements can introduce additional limits on carbon emissions and water consumption. To satisfy these demands while keeping costs in check, our data centers need to be smarter as well. Comprehensive views of data center inventories, operational and environmental conditions, and consumption across multiple capacity types that span both facilities and IT are required. You can achieve greater efficiency using hardware, software, services, and design both in facilities and IT, but you need a comprehensive data center strategy to tie them together and thus obtain a complete picture of your data center environments. This IBM® RedpaperTM publication discusses important considerations when creating and implementing your smarter data center strategy. Notable techniques, best practices, and technological advances that can become critical components of success are included, along with methods for bringing them together to gain in-depth knowledge of data center operations. With such insight comes increased resiliency, rapid responsiveness, profitable access to detailed analytics, and reliable planning for the future. Although not all-inclusive, this document provides a guide to getting started, points you to additional sources of information, and suggests ways IBM can partner with you in your pursuit of a smarter data center.

Download or read book Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments written by ASHRAE (Firm) and published by Ashrae. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is often a mismatch of IT equipment environmental requirements with adjacent equipment requirements or with facility operating conditions and therefore a strong need to find common solutions and standard practices that facilitate IT equipment interchangeability while preserving industry innovation. Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments provides a framework for improved alignment between IT equipment hardware manufacturers (including manufacturers of computers, servers, and storage products), data center designers, and facility operators and managers. This guide covers five primary areas: equipment operating environment guidelines for air-cooled equipment (six classes are defined), environmental guidelines for liquid-cooled equipment (five classes are defined), facility temperature and humidity measurement (to evaluate data center health), equipment placement and airflow patterns (a hot-aisle/cold-aisle layout is recommended), and equipment manufacturers' heat load and airflow requirements reporting. In reaction to the industry trend of increased energy efficiency for data center operation, this third edition of Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments provides groundbreaking, vendor-neutral information that will empower data center designers, operators, and managers to better determine the impact of varying design and operation parameters. This book is the first in the ASHRAE Datacom Series, authored by ASHRAE Technical Committee 9.9, Mission Critical Facilities, Technology Spaces and Electronic Equipment. This series provides comprehensive treatment of datacom cooling and related subjects.
