In many data centers, water-cooled chillers are paired with an open- or closed-circuit cooling tower for heat rejection. Other options include dry coolers, hybrid fluid coolers, and adiabatic fluid coolers.
Building owners, facility managers, and HVAC design engineers convince themselves that pharmaceutical and mission critical installations are very sophisticated and more complex than many health care applications and certainly more challenging to engineer, operate, and maintain than commercial buildings. But, that’s not the case.
The edge is enabling us to expand our reach to a new range of systems, equipment, devices, and applications, providing relevant outcomes for operating and managing buildings.

DOE’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) will fund projects that seek to reduce the amount of energy data centers use for cooling to lower the operational carbon footprint associated with powering and cooling data centers.

Data centers and high-performance computing centers always require cooling and constantly reject heat. When built as stand-alone facilities, this heat is rejected, and any opportunity to recover it is lost.
