ShareFree cooling for data center.

Type of article: Article, Case study
Summary
Six years ago, using outdoor air in cold climates for data centers was limited. Although free cooling from outdoor cold air, or air-side economization, is as old as civilization, data centers have been reluctant to adopt this technology. This may be because outdoor cold air is naturally dry, and when it picks up heat in data center spaces, its relative humidity drops to levels where humidification is needed to protect the IT equipment from static electricity.
