Abstract

This paper describes an integral management hierarchical structure for data center server room ventilation and IT equipment cooling based on multi-layer approach. The approach contains two hierarchical layers, the lower layer is responsible to assure the right cooling power of each server-rack avoiding overcooling and waste of energy. The upper layer is responsible to perform the tasks of optimization, supervision and coordination of all subsystems in the lower layer for holistic control. The approach aim is to make data centers more energy efficient, here we focus on proposing a general approach to improve the efficiency of their thermal cooling systems.
