Liquid Cooling in Datacenters

Posted by Armstrong Fluid Technology on Aug 29, 2024 8:30:28 AM

 

As datacenter cooling technology evolves, liquid cooling is emerging as a viable solution to address the growing cooling challenges. The impact of heat on datacenter performance is significant. Excessive heat can cause equipment failures or reduced performance, and in extreme case could lead to a system shutdown. Cooling systems ensure that equipment operates within the recommended temperature range, preventing overheating and extending the lifespan of the equipment.

Water Hammer

Posted by Armstrong Fluid Technology on Jul 16, 2024 4:01:05 AM

What is the main cause of water hammer?

In commercial plumbing installations, which often incorporate large diameter pipework and pumped systems, water hammer can be a single destructive event that occurs when a pressure wave rapidly propagates through the pipework. The magnitude of the incident and the reflected pressure waves can sometimes exceed the rated operating pressures of components within the plumbing system. Surges can typically exceed 1.5 times the normal system operating pressure.

The Role of Pumps in an HVAC System

Posted by Armstrong Fluid Technology on Jun 7, 2024 4:58:51 AM

Pumps are essential components in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems, playing a crucial role in maintaining optimal temperature levels and ensuring efficient operation. These pumps are responsible for circulating the system fluid, facilitating the transfer of heat and enabling the cooling process.  By continuously moving the fluid, pumps help transfer heat from the indoor environment to the outside, thereby maintaining comfortable temperatures indoors.

Case Study: Caribbean Resort

Posted by Armstrong Fluid Technology on May 21, 2024 8:26:17 AM

In 2018, the HVAC system at a popular holiday resort suffered a series of failures and leaks, resulting in frequent downtime. An initial review determined that the existing pumps were the cause and had to be replaced. The review also noted that the pumps were oversized, which affected system efficiency. With the resort occupancy rates near 95% for most of the year, HVAC performance and reliability are crucial, so managers decided to go ahead with an upgrade.

Flip The Script

Posted by Armstrong Fluid Technology on Apr 22, 2024 12:09:34 AM

 

 

April 22nd is designated as Earth Day. We spend the day (and perhaps a few days on either side) thinking more carefully about the environment and our impact on it. We make commitments around the many ways the years ahead will be different. How we can change. How we can consume less. How we can be more responsible. How we can reduce our carbon footprint, and purchase carbon credits to erase the rest.
