Energy Reduction and Efficient Cooling Systems for Data Centers

Abstract

To provide efficient cooling systems for Data Centers in order to make energy reduction is vital. A Google search on ”Efficient Cooling Systems for Data Centers” returns approximately 3.3 million pages, which turns synthesizing such a subject in a real adventure. The paper includes general information on data centers and a detailed description of the proposed energy recovery system. Additionally, a novel design is developed using the absorption chiller and alternative renewable energy, including solar energy. The conclusions highlight the efficiency of the system and comparison to the classical solutions. The study develops the analytical model of an energy recovery system for the cooling of a data center using renewable energy resources. The cooling system consists of an absorption chiller, driven by the thermal energy recovered from the Data Center components and additional extra solar energy.
