End-to-End Modeling and Optimization Package for Data Center Cooling
This package is an outcome of our data center project sponsored by the DOE. See this research page for more information.
- Modelica models package for data center cooling systems
4 system models and 30+ component models for data center cooling systems have been released in the DOE’s Modelica Buildings library (V5.0.0): Buildings.Applications.DataCenters.
- ISAT-FFD model for data center airflow management
ISAT-FFD is a reduced order model trained by FFD simulations that can be used for fast predictions of airflow in the building.
- Integrated model of data center airflow management and cooling systems
The integrated model that couples Modelica cooling system model with ISAT-FFD for airflow mangement, which can be regarded as an alternated detailed room model in Modelica Building library.
