Loved it. I'm part of the DDC division of an HVAC company, and I want to thank you for all the informative videos that keep me learning, but also helped me get the job. Currently I am working on a 1, 000, 000 sq ft data center project that is truly a feat of engineering. Love my job. Thanks, again.

In 2004 I worked in a sign shop that had been built to be a data center but which never took occupancy when the Dotcom bubble burst. The only climate control they had installed was a massive AC unit like these CRAC units, but which didn't have a controller. It was either on or off. In 20-30 minutes it dropped the temperature from about 85°F to 50-55°F. And while it was running it was deafening. But we only had to run it twice a day during the hottest part of the year.

I do this everyday this video is spot on great job you deserve my thumbs up

This video is particularly applicable to me.
Modern HPC clusters often have power consumption in the MW range and often uses liquid cooling for CPUs GPUs and RAM, these usually consist of a local liquid loop with a heat exchanger linked to a secondary loop fed from the building chilled water system.

I work at JLL in facilities management your videos are really helpful.

I've never subscribed to a channel so quickly, finally I've found some quality MechE content on YT.

Could you also do a series on semiconductor cleanroom engineering?

[jonathanhernandez]

Awesome video and very well put together. I currently work in constructing data centers and this video is perfect for anyone who wants to learn how this building gets cooled. I hope to see more videos coming from you explaining the electrical side such as how the power gets distributed from transformers to generators to Ups, PDU’s etc.

This is helpful for my architectural thesis, thanks.

I work on this stuff near daily, but I just started a month ago. This is very helpful!

[innocentnwachukwu]

This is an awesome video. Thank you so much for putting this together. It is very helpful.

Probably the coolest video on data center environmental design

[apokalypz]

Side note, if the CRAC unit is using chilled water then it's typically called a CRAH (computer room air handling) unit. This is due to not having the compressor or majority of the work to cool being actually IN the unit like it is with a CRAC unit. With CRAH's the compressor doing the most work is typically in the upstream chiller or heat rejection equipment of similar type and function.

very excellent video, I learn new things by watching

[richardwager]

Would be good to see a video on static transfer switches 👍🏻

[ryanellinger]

This is a cool video, but I work for a big commercial refrigeration and HVAC company in Arizona. I have never seen this. We do all the work for Century link in Arizona. They only use chillers or rtus. I’m not saying this doesn’t happen, but I think with all the bad airflow just use a chiller with multiple air handlers. Thanks for the video.

I just knew the hot isle containment.. 👍👍

[samuelfrondozojr.]

You have good application of Air conditioning systemapplied to all type of Area of location in a residential or commercial building.

What standard is used for hydrotesting of chilled water pipes?
