Optimization of Data Center Cooling and Water Efficiency Part 5: From Heat Rejection to Heat Recovery

Optimization of Data Center Cooling and Water Efficiency Part 5: From Heat Rejection to Heat Recovery

For decades, data center cooling has been designed around one core assumption: heat is a problem to remove. Servers generate it, cooling systems collect it, and mechanical equipment rejects it to the atmosphere. That approach is essential for protecting uptime, but….

Optimization of Data Center Cooling and Water Efficiency Part 2:  Open Loop Cooling Towers

Heat rejection is the most consequential aspect of data center cooling design. Data centers are driven to optimize heat rejection to minimize, or even eliminate, their reliance on chillers. There is a wide range of both traditional and evolving solutions which we will explore as this series progresses. In this blog, we focus on heat-rejection via….
