Abstract
(type = abstract)
In this study, the ability of a cooling system to remove heat from a data center is investigated. The governing equations with given boundary conditions are solved numerically using ANSYS Fluent 2020R1 which was validated via comparison with the benchmark problem of natural convection in a square cavity. The number of fans present in each server, the hot aisle width, the ceiling height, and the use of hot aisle containment was varied in order to determine their influence on how well the data center was cooled. The server racks are modeled as porous media and the temperatures at key location are used to determine various thermal metrics which allows for an investigation of the changes at both the room and rack level.
