Over the last few years and looking to the near future, the demand for data processing has soared exponentially at rates previously thought inconceivable. Goldman Sachs Research estimates that while data centres currently consume approximately 1-2% of the world’s overall power, this is expected to grow by 160% by the end of the decade, and 2022-2030 carbon emissions are predicted to double!
The potential risk of data centers becoming stranded assets due to their power-intensive nature. As data centers increasingly handle High-Performance Computing (HPC), facilities can be challenged when it comes to delivering the output demanded while balancing the economic viability with the needs of the environment.
Computational Fluid Dynamics has a very important role to play in data centers, but how does it work?
In this episode, we break down CFD with Subzero Engineering’s Gordon Johnson – the factors that need to be considered, it’s role in the data center, and the science behind it.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software can help data centers anticipate cooling failures and optimize energy efficiency. Gordon Johnson takes a closer look at this powerful data center tool.
As power and heat loads continue to rise in data centers, efficient cooling is becoming increasingly challenging, with cooling responsible for up to 40% of a data center’s total energy consumption. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software creates a 3D model or digital twin of the data center, providing a detailed understanding of the complex interactions between airflow, heat removal, and cooling systems, enabling operators to make informed decisions to reduce energy consumption and improve overall cooling efficiency.
