Sloan Limited Partners Cool Sim Solutions

Cool-Sim Airflow Solution Program Summary

Maximizing Data Center Cooling Efficiency Through Cooling Capacity
Balancing

Three Keys to Increased Cooling Capacity:

Balanced Airflow
Managed Airflow
Quantifiable Solution Data

Build a Computer Fluid Dynamics (CFD) of your data center (complete with air-
balancing analysis)
Analysis based on mfg spec of each piece of equipment
Solution based on real time data i.e. exhaust out put, Liebert output reading
Compare side-to-side with engineered solution
Analyze the energy savings

PROGRAM INPUT

Data Center Room dimensions including room and supply plenum heights
Data Center layout – arrangement of CRACs, racks, tiles, etc.
CRAC – cooling specifications
Individual Server BTU output
Individual PDU output
Rack – Heat loads and airflow rates (CFM)
Tiles layout and specifications - % open

PROGRAM OUTPUT

Comprehensive Cooling Audit Report
Detailed airflow patterns in the plenum and room
Detailed thermal analysis showing air temperatures at rack inlets
Detection of “hot spots” in the room
Airflow distribution through the tiles
A detailed performances reports for CRACs, racks, and tiles.
Proposed solution effect to airflow and temperature
