Data Center Design Guide – Book 2: Cooling: Specifying the requirements, cooling generation, cooling distribution, cooling efficiency, and fault tolerance for data centers

Master the fundamentals principles of Cooling and supercharge your data center career. Data Centers are a critical resource in the digital age. For many people, data center outages have tremendous impacts on day-to-day operations. For businesses, data center downtime can cause significant revenue losses. Hence data center designers need to be equipped with modern innovative techniques for designing reliable data center cooling systems. This book is a detailed discussion on designing data center cooling systems. You will be introduced into the world of cooling, understand how cooling occurs, and learn how cooling is distributed. You will have a firm grasp of data center cooling needs, capacity requirements, cooling efficiency, and redundant topologies. Who Should Read This Book I set out to write a book that would lay out the fundamentals of cooling in clear simple English to educate my younger self. This is the book I wish I had when I started designing data center cooling systems. If you are a newly minted cooling professional, a newbie data center designer, a member of a data center operations team, or even an experienced data center cooling systems designer, you will find this book a must-have. This book is also an excellent resource for anyone interested in any aspect of the subject of cooling. What You Will Learn This is the third book in the designing data center series. In this book you will learn about the following: SECTION ONE – Cooling Fundamentals The fundamentals of heat, humidity, and pressure Temperature and fluid flow rates Computational Fluid Dynamics SECTION TWO – Cooling Sources The refrigeration cycle How cooling capacity is provided for the data center The different types of cooling systems – air-cooled systems, water-cooled systems, glycol-cooled systems Air and Water Economization Alternative cooling sources SECTION THREE – Cooling Distribution How generated cooling is carried to the electrical loads The different elements in the cooling path SECTION FOUR – Determining the Need How to size cooling capacity for the data center The concept of ‘N’ The different levels of cooling redundancy SECTION FIVE – Energy Efficiency The critical need for energy efficiency The different Data Center Cooling Efficiency Metrics Cooling efficiency best practices SECTION SIX – Codes and Standards The different cooling codes and specifications applicable in your region The different data center standards SECTION SEVEN – The Ten-Step Framework A framework for designing a complete functional data center cooling system for the data center.
