Description
Summary:With the rapid growth of IDC (Internet Data Center) construction, the energy consumption is also increasing gradually. It is extremely important to design a reasonable air distribution to reduce the energy consumption of IDC. The research object is an IDC Plant in Beijing. Airpak software is used to conduct DeST ( Building energy consumption analysis software) simulation of the air flow organization in IDC room. Under the same cooling load conditions, through the simulation of the three types of diffuse air supply, closed cold aisle and closed hot aisle in the IDC room, it is concluded that the air flow organization after the closed cold and hot aisle is excellent. The energy consumption analysis of the enclosure structure of the three air flow organizations of IDC room shows that the energy consumption of the closed cold aisle is lower than that of the closed hot aisle air-conditioning system.
