Flow Modeling Solution for Data Center

Tridiagonal Solutions is glad to bring custom software for Data Center Airflow Modeling (CoolSim) in collaboration with its partner in the US, Applied Math Modeling Inc. The software helps facility managers and designers in improving cold air distribution in the data centers by helping them reduce the operation costs with reduced electricity consumption. The software is built on state of the art FLUENT CFD engine and uses latest in remote simulation to achieve the given tasks.

Thermal cooling of high-density data centers is a mission critical task. Shortcomings in a design can compromise the reliability of the facility, increase operational costs and shorten the life span of electronic equipment. CoolSim is customized software solution specifically for data centers which enables engineers and facility managers to investigate airflows and temperatures throughout a data center. With CoolSim solutions, you can visualize the complex airflow and thermal performance of your data center in order to design and optimize:

• Plenum airflow patterns
• Room airflow patterns
• Rack inlet temperatures
• Static pressure distribution
• Tile airflow distribution
• Short-circuiting airflow or recirculation from rack outlets to rack inlets
• Effects of equipment and layout changes
• Effects of various failure scenarios
• Effects of floor tile layout and design

CoolSim is outfitted with libraries of industry standard air conditioning equipments. This allows accurate representation of the air conditioning performance in a given data center. The typical investment needed in getting CoolSim is a few days of electricity bill and hence the RoI on CoolSim is very attractive.
