Investigation the air distribution from the ceiling and floor to the data center room and calculate the annual cost savings in electricity and carbon dioxide production in the optimal design

Today, due to the need for data centers, the issue of energy supply required by these centers is very important. Much of the energy consumed in data centers is related to the need for continuous cooling. Therefore, it is necessary to study air distribution, as one of the most important factors in energy saving, greenhouse gas production and increasing cooling. In this research, the data center has been simulated using Design Builder software (DB), and once the air has been distributed from the floor and once from the ceiling. This study was conducted in Mashhad over a period of one year and the results such as energy consumption, server room temperature, initial costs for each system and carbon dioxide emissions, which is one of the most destructive greenhouse gases, were compared. The simulation results showed that under exactly the same conditions with proper distribution of air in data centers can reduce room air temperature to increase room cooling and equipment, energy consumption, energy costs as well as greenhouse gas emissions and production costs. By using the floor air distribution plan, there is an average temperature reduction of 4.5 celsius degrees, 91.5 kWh of energy reduction, 55.5 kg of carbon dioxide emissions, and as a result, there is a $ 90.78 cost reduction compared to the roof air distribution plan per year.
