If you caught our earlier post today featuring Google’s Bill Weihl, you know there are many issues related to having an energy efficient datacenter. Thermal management is part of that as well. So while you might have the best heat sink and system cooling design, that heat still has to be dealt with once it comes out of the system. At ATS we think about heat transfer from chip to datacenter. In our latest white paper on this topic we cover what an adaptive cooling approach might look like for a datacenter. We use a sample 4 MW center with 100 racks of servers for our exercise and consider what needs to be considered in order to develop such an adaptive cooling solution to the thermal management of a datacenter.
