Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analysis for Predicting the Airflow in a Data Centre 

Journal Title: TEM JOURNAL - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 3

Abstract

This paper studies the high density data centre with 266.4 m2 area, and it focuses on defining the heat profile of the centre, as well as on the airflow in the centre. To this purpose, the necessary measurements in the data centre have been taken, and a detailed model in the computational fluid dynamics program package PHOENICS has been elaborated. The model simulations yielded the fields of temperature, velocity and pressure throughout the center, as well as the complete image of the airflow in the center.The results helped to detect the weak points and to draw conclusions regarding upgrading the defined working conditions in the data-com equipment.
