راهنمای حرارتی برای محیط‌های پردازش داده

This book 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 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. Content: Front Matter • Preface to the Third Edition • Table of Contents 1. Introduction 2. Environmental Guidelines for Air-Cooled Equipment 3. Environmental Guidelines for Liquid-Cooled Equipment 4. Facility Temperature and Humidity Measurement 5. Equipment Placement and Airflow Patterns 6. Equipment Manufacturers' Heat and Airflow Reporting Appendices • References and Bibliography 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 third edition of Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments breaks new ground through the addition of new data center classes enabling near full-time use of free cooling techniques in the vast majority of the world's climates"-- Provided by publisher
