INITIAL DESIGN: TEMPERATURES IN ROOM
In this image it is observed that the upper racks (at 2.3 m height) are getting air withtemperature higher than 25ºC this means, a design modification is required.

INITIAL DESIGN: TEMPERATURES IN ROOM
In this image it is observed that the temperatures in the corridor ends is higher than desired.This requires the application of corrective measures.

INITIAL DESIGN: TEMPERATURES IN ROOM
It is possible to carry out a very detailed zone analysis, in this present case we willanalyze the separate room. There are 4 racks equivalent power installed equipment.

INITIAL DESIGN: VELOCITIES IN ROOM
The velocity distribution in the hallways shows the still areas.Then, it is possible to know which racks would have greater ventilation problems.

Optimized design: • An homogeneous distribution of the flows is sought.• Avoid mixing of hot air in the cold corridors.

OPTIMIZED DESIGN: TEMPERATURES IN ROOM
We can see that the temperatures reached in the cold corridors have improved to aheight of 1 m.

Here, we can see that the critical zones do not receive hot air.

The air flow through the new vents is more uniform and the pressure loss is reduced.

OPTIMIZED DESIGN: VELOCITIES IN ROOM
With the new design, the velocities of the air jets are smaller.

In this view, we can see how the ventilation return is running (improved velocity distribution).

CONCLUSIONS
The use of CFD software tools helps to:
– Detailed analysis of the ventilation systems designs, before the installations aremade.
– It makes possible to see the consequences, of any modification in the ventilationssystems.
– Finding the locations with potential risk and worse ventilation.
– Design optimization to reach PUE improvement.
– Extraordinary scenario modelling and anticipate the measures needed to minimizethe impact.
– Complex geometry modelization, that other softwares can not analyze.
– Prevent big economic losses, because the correct ventilation system designs is notcorrectly done.
