RED Engineering designed a state-of-the-art rooftop plant for a Tier III 40,000 ft2 data center
2 PagesWhen RED Engineering designed a state-of-the-art rooftop plant for a Tier III 40,000 ft 2 data center, they used the Virtual Facility (VF) to predictively simulate the impact on the facility’s operating conditions. As a result of doing so, they were able to safely instigate a significant redesign that safeguarded the cooling plant’s performance in extreme weather conditions. App Note: The Virtual Facility for a Consultant As the data center industry moves towards reducing PUE (power usage efficiency) and saving energy costs, attention has turned to the cooling plant. With up to 40% of the data center’s energy consumed by the cooling infrastructure, there are significant savings to be realized with the latest technology advances in cooling systems and design techniques.
