Before adopting such innovative cooling solutions, data center operators need to examine their existing cooling infrastructure and determine opportunities for energy savings

在采用创新的冷却解决方案之前，数据中心运营商需要检查其现有的制冷基础设施来确定节能的机会。

The rows of servers that make up a data center generate massive amounts of heat. If the equipment gets too hot, it shuts down to protect itself, causing data center failure – a nightmare for all concerned.

数据中心中成排的服务器运行会产生大量热量。如果环境过热，服务器会启动自我保护停机，如果数据中心故障，这对所有与之相关的人来说都是一场噩梦。Current data center trends show a significant increase in high-performance computing to support artificial intelligence, machine learning and similar applications. At the same time, advanced processor design is increasing chip densities, like with GPU processors. In extreme cases, we're seeing 30-60kW racks housing ultra-high performance and high-powered servers.

当前的数据中心行业趋势显示，用以支持人工智能、机器学习和类似应用的高性能计算显著增加。同时，先进的处理器设计正在增加芯片密度，例如GPU处理器。在极端的情况下，我们看到容纳超高性能和高功率服务器的30-60kW机架出现。

These demands by Big Data, Internet of Things and edge computing are driving up data center heat density, leading to increased risk for outages if not carefully managed.

大数据，物联网和边缘计算正在推高数据中心的功率密度，如果管理不当，系统宕机的风险也在增加。

This situation has created a need for innovative approaches to thermal management, including radical moves like liquid cooling. In fact, direct liquid cooling at the chip - meaning the processor or other components are partially or fully immersed in a liquid for heat dissipation - is becoming a viable solution. Another area of innovation in thermal management is extreme water-free cooling, which is an increasingly popular alternative to traditional chilled water.

这种情况引领制冷方案的创新，甚至出现了液体冷却这样的激进方案。事实上，芯片级直接液体冷却(意味着处理器或其他组件部分或全部浸入某种液体中散热)正在成为一种可行的解决方案。另一个制冷的创新领域是完全无水冷却，这是一种越来越受欢迎的传统冷冻水替代方案。

Before adopting such innovative cooling solutions, data center operators need to examine their existing cooling infrastructure and determine opportunities for energy savings. By viewing real-time energy consumption and collecting historical energy consumption patterns, experts can provide the best assessment to cut down on energy spending. The overall objective is to be able to optimize the cooling capacity and manage the airflow within the data center.

在采用如此创新的冷却解决方案之前，数据中心运营商需要检查其现有的制冷基础设施来确定节能的机会。通过实时查看能源消耗并收集历史能源消耗模型，专家可以提供最佳评估，以减少能源消耗。总体目标是能够优化数据中心内的制冷能力和气流管理。Here are five steps towards achieving a highly efficient data center.以下是实现高效数据中心的五个步骤。

Step One: Make an early move on optimization

第一步：提前规划数据监测系统

Each area of the data center facility must be assessed by a data center professional. Key areas to be measured include lighting, cooling, power distribution units, other servers, processors, server power supply, UPS, storage, communication equipment and switchgear and transformers.

数据中心设施的每个区域都必须由数据中心专业人员进行评估。关键区域需要测量的系统包括照明、制冷、配电装置、其他服务器、处理器、服务器供电、UPS、存储、通信设备以及开关设备和变压器。

Step Two: Measure the data

第二步：数据测量

The information gathered from the assessment in Step One will be analyzed by the data center professional, including percent of IT capacity, power metering, precision air conditioning unit (PACU) redundancy and hot/cold aisle configuration.

收集和评估第一步收集的机房信息，包括IT容量百分比、功率计量、精密空调机组(PACU)冗余和冷热通道的配置。

The analysis will give a professional review of the data center performance.

从专业角度评估出数据中心各系统的指标水平。

Step Three: Analyze the facts

第三步：系统分析

Here are key areas that can be addressed to reduce energy costs:以下是可实现降低能源成本的关键领域：

· Metering and verification - metering/monitoring provides base line pPUE (mechanical Power Usage Effectiveness) of "before and after" the optimization process; it also provides real time and historical kWH consumption.

计量并验证-计量/监测提供优化过程"前后"的基准pPUE(机械用电效率)；它还提供实时和历史用电量。

· Air flow management (Under the floor, within the rack, hot and cold aisle configuration, return air)

气流管理(地板下、机架内、冷热通道的配置、回风)·

Computer Room Air Conditioning unit optimization – recommissioning of CRAC units, controlling air temperature and recalibrating sensors

计算机房空调机组优化-CRAC机组的重新调试、控制气流温度和重新校准传感器·

Identifying hot spots – Utilizing thermal scanning to identify and eliminate hot air intake

识别热点-利用热扫描识别并消除(服务器的)室内热点

Step Four: Improve the data center design

第四步：改进设计

Some basic actions to be taken, that will contribute to energy savings and data center efficiency include:

下面几个基本措施将有助于节省能源和提升数据中心的效率，其中包括：

· Identify different stress points.

确定不同的应力点。

· Consider different air flow management as needed (ie. containment, intelligent controls and economization)

根据需要考虑不同的气流组织形式(如密闭通道、智能控制和节约化)。· Regulate temperature (hot aisle/cold aisle rack arrangement and sealing cooling gaps on the data center floor)

调节温度(热通道/冷通道机架布置和密封数据中心地板的冷却间隙)。

Step Five: Enjoy the results

第五步：验证结果

The optimization process detailed above will ensure that the results are what was anticipated based on budget, requirements and expectations.

以上详细的优化过程将确保优化结果是基于预算、要求和期望的预期结果。

Multiple benchmarks have consistently shown that the actions detailed above have delivered significant energy savings between 30 percent and 50 percent on cooling costs and reduced 50 overall facility power costs by between 10 percent and 25 percent.

多个基准测试表明，上述详细措施如果实施到位，节能效果会非常明显，制冷系统将节省了30%至50%的成本，对于占运维成本50%的电力系统，其成本将降低10%~25%。
