Thermal Time Shifting: Decreasing Data Center Cooling Costs with Phase-Change Materials.
IEEE Internet Computing(2017)
摘要
As data centers increase in size and computational capacity, their growth comes at a cost: an increasing thermal load that must be removed to prevent overheating. Here, the authors propose using phase-change materials (PCMs) to shape a data center's thermal load, absorbing and releasing heat when it's advantageous. They evaluate three important opportunities for cost savings. They find that in a d...
