Overview:
All electrical equipment produces heat, which must be removed to prevent the equipment temperature from rising to an unacceptable level. Most Information Technology equipment and other equipment found in a data center or network room is air-cooled. Sizing a cooling system requires an understanding of the amount
of heat produced by the equipment contained in the enclosed space, along with the heat produced by the other heat sources typically encountered. This document describes how to estimate heat output from Information Technology equipment and other devices in a data center such as UPS, for purposes of sizing air conditioning systems. A number of common conversion factors and design guideline values are also included.
