Growing server workload requirements and the adoption of blade technologies increases the importance of provisioning adequate power and cooling. Cooling Audit is a comprehensive assessment of cooling capability. It includes a gap analysis and a written report which are designed to highlight best practices as per ASHRAE TC 9.9. "Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments".
As power consumption and heat generation in the data center increase due to the trend toward higher computing densities, facility infrastructures often need to become more efficient. Server blade technologies and other high-density equipment configurations may also increase the complexity of providing adequate power and cooling. The Audit/Assessment Services help you gauge your readiness to meet these challenges and provide recommendations to assist you in improving the function and efficiency of your data center facilities.
The Audit Service supplements the Service with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling, which ENERGENIQ uses to model the probable effects of potential cooling improvements or the addition of new equipment to your facility. Optionally, offers Thermal Zone Mapping, an analysis that graphically represents the area influenced by each air-conditioning unit in your facility. This insight may help you more effectively locate mission-critical equipment in locations influenced by multiple air-conditioning units, potentially protecting customer from the effects of overheating due to mechanical failures.
ENERGENIQ has expert team and specialised equipment for performing Testing and audit services for air-conditioning system of an operational data center. This Audit/Assessment help client identify the single point of failures and health check of the cooling system as a pro-active approach to avoid any possible downtime.
