The flue offers engineers the opportunity to design out potential problems during construction, alongside its essential use for owners and operators when uptime is threatened.
The need for cooling capacity is increasing globally. An expanding population and an ever-growing dependence on data increases the need for process cooling, centralized space cooling, and data center cooling. Meanwhile, in many places, water scarcity is a massive issue.
Single compressors are available from 20 to 40 tons of refrigeration and larger capacities are available in manifolded configurations to offer enhanced system design flexibility.
The two-and-a-half-day conference drew 240 building industry professionals
September 26, 2023
In conjunction with the conference, the 2023 LowDown Showdown modeling team competition had teams of architects, engineers, designers, and energy modelers working together to create building designs that solve real-world efficiency challenges.
Data center and commercial real estate stakeholders are recognizing and responding to calls for social responsibility, sound corporate governance, and environmental sustainability.
While most data centers use air-cooled chillers that have free cooling coils to benefit from lower ambient conditions, air-cooled, magnetic bearing centrifugal chillers can operate at inverted conditions and provide free cooling without the need for additional coils.
