Why Should You Care about Server Delta-T?
Understanding the baseline conditions of a data center is crucial for its sustainability journey. Server Delta-T, measuring the temperature rise of cooling air at the server inlet and exhaust, is a key metric impacting server reliability and energy efficiency. Maintaining an optimal Delta-T, typically in the range of 10 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit, ensures efficient cooling. Learn more about the benefits of measuring your server delta-T here.
Use Server Delta-T to Improve Cooling Efficiency
Server delta-T is a powerful indicator of your facility’s cooling performance, and yet it is rarely monitored. This article explores how measuring the server delta-T can determine how much cooling is required for the current IT Load, and how much is being wasted due to bypass and recirculation airflow.
