Summary

To reduce the power consumption of the cooling system in the data center effectively, a prototype of the integrated cooling unit with rotary booster and compressor was developed, and the operating characteristics were tested comprehensively according to its cooling requirements throughout the year. A data center model reflecting the characteristics of energy consumption and environmental requirements was established, the energy consumption characteristics and influencing factors of the model data center when the integrated unit was used to meet its yearly cooling requirements in the typical climate zones in China were simulated by DeST software based on the measured characteristics of the integrated cooling unit. The results showed that compared with the traditional computer room air conditioner, the energy-saving ratio of the integrated system can be as high as 39.55% for the whole year, and the energy-saving effect is remarkable. The energy-saving potential of the integrated unit becomes more significant while the heat transfer coefficient of the envelope structure becomes larger, and the load rate of IT equipment and the annually-averaged ambient temperature lower.
