Figure 1 provides a historical perspective on the activities of the committee, dating back to its formation in 2004. The activities of TC 9.9 have spanned all aspects of data center design and operation. government, utilities, consultants, academia, and laboratories). facility owners, operators, and managers), and general interest (i.e. HVAC, DCIM, rack, and power solutions), users of datacom equipment (i.e. computing hardware, software, and services), producers of facility equipment (i.e.
The committee is represented by a wide range of disciplines within the datacom industry, including, producers of datacom equipment (i.e. Since its formation, TC 9.9 has grown to be one of the most active ASHRAE technical committees, and its largest, with roughly 400 members. Its mission is to be recognized by all areas of the datacom industry as the unbiased engineering leader in HVAC and an effective provider of technical datacom information. TC 9.9 was formed in response to the lack of effective information transfer between the building, HVAC, and IT industries. This article serves as a continuation of those articles in documenting the activities of TC 9.9 since then. This history was documented in articles by Roger Schmidt (2012) and Don Beaty (2005). This consortium evolved into ASHRAE Technical Committee 9.9 (TC 9.9). In 1999, a group of thermal engineers from different IT manufacturing companies formed a thermal management consortium.
Mechanical load component per ANSI / ASHRAE Standard 90.4 – 2016 is calculated by the sum of all cooling, fan, pump, and heat rejection annual energy use divided by the data center ITE energy (annualized MLC) or the sum of all cooling, fan, pump, and heat rejection design power divided by the data center ITE design power (design MLC).ĪSHRAE liquid cooling classes for liquid-cooled IT equipment
