| Abstract | Data Center efficiency is critical to successful operation of today’s large IT installations. The reduction of infrastructure energy use will allow an increase in IT carrying capacity and / or a reduction in operating costs. The cooling portion of the data center Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) can represent a significant cost and energy burden to the data center. The use of containment hardware (hot aisle, chimney, or cold aisle containment) is a good step in reducing the Data Center PUE; however the specifics of the implementation remains a challenge and some legacy controls strategies limit the efficacy of their use. The most typical control scheme in today’s data center is the return airflow temperature modulating a linked supply temperature and airflow. This control scheme is unsuitable for an advanced data center and limits the efficiency that can be gained with the containment strategy. But the optimal control scheme for a containment strategy remains a matter of discussion and debate. This paper reports on testing performed at our collaborative data center test lab facility in Munich, Germany where we have explored three different control designs for a containment strategy. The primary goal for energy savings in a containment strategy is to provide just enough cool air to the servers such that the server fans are satisfied without causing any recirculation to occur from the hot side of the containment. We investigated control based on temperature, pressure, and velocity measurements. The specifics of each are discussed as well as recommendations for choosing the appropriate controls. Practical considerations as well as system implementation recommendations are also shared. Each strategy can be made to work but the pressure control scenario provided the best level of control. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
