Abstract
Disclosed is a system for facilitating homogenized distribution of airflow, generated from one or more cooling units, in a data center. The virtual data center creation module for creating a virtual environment of the data center. The airflow channel determination module for dividing the architectural layout into one or more partitions to determine one or more airflow channels corresponding to each of the one or more partitions. The CRAC placement module for positioning the at least one cooling unit in an airflow channel, of the one or more airflow channels, in a manner such that the airflow moves in a streamline manner within the airflow channel. The vein determination module for determining position of each of a plurality of veins inside the airflow channel. The vein shape determination module for determining shape of each vein that facilitates the homogenized distribution of the airflow.
