Abstract

A modular data center is disclosed. The modular data center may have a plurality of unit structures arranged generally parallel to one another. A plurality of supports may be used for supporting the unit structures elevationally above a floor, and wherein adjacent ones of the unit structures form hot aisles therebetween through which hot air generated from data center components may be channeled. Each unit structure may form an elongated structure having a frame structure, a roof panel supported by the frame structure, and a ceiling panel. The unit structures may be used to channel cold air to the data center components and hot air from the hot aisles out from the unit structures.
