Liquid Cooling Total Cost of Ownership calculation tool

In this webinar, Bill Kosik, PE, Senior Mechanical Engineer, and co-chair of the Total Cost of Ownership Calculator Activity Work Group, will explore the value of liquid cooling in data centers especially in applications and business models that use high performance and super computers.
 
With the development of technologies such as cloud computing, computers are becoming more powerful than ever before and require greater amounts of cooling. Therefore, one of key challenges facing the future of the data centre industry will be to optimize computer effectiveness while improving energy efficiency and reduce operating costs.
 
Knowing that facilities are an integral part in overall data center efficiency, especially with the rising rate of data consumption, we believe that organisations should embrace liquid cooling as a solution to improve overall efficiency.
 
We will also explore Total Cost of Ownership calculator as a tool that can help data center owners and operators to analyse inputs against outputs, demonstrating which variables have the most significant impacts, that can over time help data centers to improve their overall performance.
 
Total Cost of Ownership Calculator is a tool that came from the collaboration of members - working together to improve best practice in the sector. The tool generates conceptual results used for examining alternatives from a theoretical perspective and its purpose is to give users the ability to calculate the energy cost, ongoing maintenance expense, and capital cost of different combinations of data center cooling systems and IT cabinet types.
