| Abstract: | As a well-developed city, the commercial activities are increasing rapidly in Hong Kong, a small but sufficiency server room is become essentially needed for each individually commercial sector. A huge number of increased in small server rooms play an equal importance role on the energy saving issues compare to the large in scale and well-researched data centres. Thus, this study will focus on how to adopt the well-researched data on the large-scale data centre down to the small scale of small server room to develop a high-efficiency cooling system and benefit on the energy saving in overall buildings. This study will mainly focus on optimising the design of air-to-air indirect heat exchange system in an economical way to a small server cooling facilities to obtain maximum energy recovery during the winter season. Determine the saving potential and life cycle by integrates the air-to-air indirect heat exchange system to the existing commercial server cooling system. Study the efficiency, feasibility, and economy of indirect heat exchange system installed in a real case of server consoles cooling system and determine whether indirect heat exchange system has higher efficiency. |
