Abstract: (974 Views) |
A data center is a place where a large group of computer servers and network equipment are assembled using infrastructure and communication facilities for computing and hosting a large collection of data. In other words, the data center is the location of a large number of computer servers that perform computing, storage, and data transfer work together without interruption. The buildings of most of these centers have advanced security systems, ventilation system, fire extinguishing system and electricity distribution system, which are equipped with emergency power system [1] and diesel generator. The implementation of a data center is generally based on a large network of processing and storage resources. Since heat dissipation in rack servers is constantly increasing, it is important to properly design the air conditioning system in the data center to prevent the destruction of devices due to high heat. More than half of the energy consumption of a typical data center is spent on physical infrastructure. In this study, in order to optimize energy consumption in data centers and increase efficiency, first temperature indicators are introduced and then implemented on simulated models. At the end, the optimal model is introduced.
