Abstract

The steady increase in data center energy consumption, the growing energy supply crisis on a global scale, and concerns about climate change are bringing to the forefront the need for energy conservation and more rational use of energy. The increased energy consumption is due to the increased capacity of data processing and telecommunications (datacom) equipment, which contributes to the increased energy demand of the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems whose job it is to achieve and maintain the prescribed criteria for temperature, humidity and cleanliness in the rooms in which they are located. The average energy consumption of HVAC systems installed in data centers is about 31% of the total energy consumption in data centers. This paper explores opportunities to improve the energy efficiency of HVAC systems by integrating proven best solutions, focusing on mechanical cooling equipment and cooling distribution equipment, as parts of HVAC systems that are significant energy consumers.
