Hot Aisle Versus Cold Aisle Containment
Hot aisle containment system (HACS) or cold aisle containment system (CACS) can be installed in new or existing data centers, in conjunction with internal or external cooling systems, and either on raised‐floor systems or hard‐floor (overhead) systems. Passive ducts directly from racks (chimney) are considered a special case of HACS. HACS and CACS impact data center operations as follows: (1) affect personnel working conditions inside the data center or inside the containment system; (2) impact ride‐through time for cooling system and data center temperatures in the event of cooling system failure or cooling system power loss; (3) impact conditions for peripheral equipment in the data center outside any of the HAC or CAC zones; and (4) impact economizer operation time periods during cooler outside ambient temperatures.
