액체식 제습 냉각시스템의 냉각탑 성능 개선을 통한 데이터센터 에너지 절감 효과 분석

Abstract

This study proposes a cooling system that applies a liquid desiccant system to the free cooling system for data center cooling.While the free cooling system has the advantage of lower energy consumption than traditional cooling systems, it can sufferfrom performance degradation in hot and humid climates. The proposed system is a liquid desiccant based cooling systemapplied to the cooling tower, which improves the cooling tower's performance and efficiently saves cooling energy in hot andhumid climates. The proposed system uses lower cooling energy than the reference system, and as a result, it also helps reducepPUE compared to the reference system.
