Abstract

According to one aspect, embodiments described herein provide a system and a method for modeling airflow. In one example, the system comprises a memory and a controller coupled to the memory, the controller configured to receive data related to equipment including at least two of a group comprising a cooling consumer and a cooling provider, compute at least one quantity of airflow between an inlet and an outlet associated with the equipment, generate a representation of at least one airflow path between the outlet and the inlet having a cross-sectional area proportional to the at least one quantity of airflow, and display the representation of the at least one airflow path in a cooling model.
