Abstract
A data processing equipment structure includes a plurality of sidewalls and a ceiling panel, which, together, define an enclosed space. The structure further includes at least one equipment enclosure and at least one cooling unit arranged in side-to-side relationship in a row within the enclosed space. At least one separation panel divides the enclosed space into a front plenum at a front side of the row and a rear plenum at a rear side of the row. Cool air in the front plenum is isolated from heated exhaust air in the rear plenum.
Claims8
A data processing equipment structure comprising:
- at least one equipment enclosure and at least one in-line cooling unit arranged in side-to-side relationship in a row;
- and
- an overhead duct in fluid communication with, and structurally coupled with, the at least one equipment enclosure and the at least one in-line cooling unit;
- wherein the at least one in-line cooling unit is adapted to draw air from an exterior of the data processing equipment structure for cooling;
- and
- wherein the overhead duct is adapted to direct the cooled air from the at least one in-line cooling unit to the at least one equipment enclosure for cooling electronic equipment.
A data processing equipment structure comprising:
- at least one equipment enclosure and at least one in-line cooling unit arranged in side-to-side relationship in a row;
- and
- a duct in fluid communication with, and structurally coupled with, each of the at least one equipment enclosure and the at least one in-line cooling unit, the duct being arranged underneath the at least one equipment enclosure and the at least one in-line cooling unit;
- wherein the duct is adapted to direct heated exhaust air from the at least one equipment enclosure to the at least one in-line cooling unit for cooling before being reintroduced to a supply of cool air outside of the data processing equipment structure.
