Abstract

Disclosed is a system and method for optimizing cooling efficiency of a data center is disclosed. The system may comprise an importing module, a Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling module, a scope determination module, a metrics computation module, an identification module and a recommendation module. The importing module may be configured to import data associated to the data center. The CFD modeling module may be configured to leverage an external CFD Analysis tool in order to develop a CFD model of the data center. The scope determination module may be configured to determine a scope for optimizing the cooling efficiency of the data center. The metrics computation module may be configured to compute metrics based upon the data. The identification module may be configured to identify inefficiency and a cause producing the inefficiency. The recommendation module may be configured to facilitate optimizing cooling efficiency of the data center.
