With the expansion of hospital data centers comes the need for more precise cooling equipment, which is designed to keep the data safe through critical temperature, humidity, and air quality control.
Sun-drenched rooms can make for happy residents, but large glass windows also bring higher air conditioning bills. Now a microfluidic circulatory system for windows developed by researchers could save energy and cut cooling costs significantly while letting in just as much sunlight.
A new book from ASHRAE, “District Cooling Guide,” provides design guidance for all major aspects of district cooling systems, including guidance on central chiller plants, chilled-water distribution systems, and consumer interconnection.
When mechanical engineers, installers, architects, and building owners have the rare luxury of designing a new facility specifically to meet or exceed energy efficiency and indoor comfort needs, big dreams become a reality.
The global market for cooling towers is projected to reach $2.6 billion by the year 2018, driven by improving economic conditions and more stringent environmental regulations, according to new report by Global Industry Analysts Inc.
The 2012 Kühl room air conditioner with optional Wi-Fi control is a room cooling solution that can help simplify building operations management and curtail energy consumption in dorms, apartments, commercial, and industrial facilities. Facilities management personnel can remotely control units.
Added to the line of flexible indoor systems, the EZ-Fit air conditioner is a modular cooling system designed to overcome the problems of replacing old air conditioning systems without site demolition or the need of special lifting or rigging equipment. Each module ships in three manageable sections.
SPX Corp. announced that its Thermal Equipment and Services segment has been awarded a contract to supply an air-cooled condenser (ACC) for a new 1.3 GW natural gas-fired, combined cycle power plant.
After facing a slow winter where much of the nation saw above-average temperatures and mild weather, contractors are gearing up for a busy summer season. To help them prepare, The NEWS introduces the latest cooling equipment available for the upcoming summer season.
Polargy, a leading provider of hot- and cold-aisle data center containment solutions, announced that it is partnering with ASM Modular Systems, a leading raised-access flooring company in North America, to provide a complementary set of data center airflow solutions.
