Case Study of Cold Aisle Construction in Saudi Arabia Data Center
Cold aisle containment improves cooling efficiency metrics significantly, enhancing SHI by over 0. Numerical analysis revealed critical hot spots due to hot air recirculation in the studied data center. Saudi Aramco's Exploration and Petroleum Engineering Computer Center (ECC) is a three-story data center built in 1982. Beyond a simple separation of flows via the creation of dedicated aisles, cold aisle containment allows for the containment of aisles for optimized cooling.
