Abstract
A system and method for predicting the effect of a transient event on a data center. A method comprises receiving input data related to a data center that includes at least one equipment rack and at least one cooling provider, the input data including data center architecture information, building data, and operating data, generating, a model based at least in part on the input data and on a set of energy balance and heat exchange equations for the data center that account for removed and added heat and a thermal mass of the at least one equipment rack and a thermal mass of the at least one cooling provider, the model configured to predict at least one temperature in the data center during a transient event, and controlling a display device to display the at least one predicted temperature.
