CHALLENGE
Data Centers must ensure proper cooling of Information Technology and Telecommunications equipment and minimize costs. As data centers evolve the initial design may become inadequate to meet this need. Data Center professionals must understand the impact changes to the data center will have on air flow rates and temperature distribution in order to optimize rack layouts and cooling capacity.



SOLUTION
Through the use of CoolSolve’s Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling services, Data Center professionals will have the certainty they need to address the optimization of the data center layout and cooling capacity. CoolSolve will construct a 3D computer model of your data center and calculate the distribution of cooling air through perforated tiles, the airflow pattern in the data center and the corresponding temperature distribution. The CoolSolve team will lead collaborative sessions with the data center team to devise the best cooling strategy for your data center.

Models of future states will be developed which will provide the certainty of the outcomes of proposed changes.
