Meeting Unpredictability with Flexibility: The Modular Approach to Data Center Cooling
By Jacob Wolfe, Global Key Account Manager, Armstrong Fluid Technology
The task of achieving maximum energy efficiency for mission-critical cooling applications is never straightforward. In data centers, in particular, extreme scrutiny of environmental performance is constant, in a situation which demands maximum reliability and zero downtime.
With energy requirements increasing steeply, driven largely by AI, availability of power from the grid is a major issue with the potential to limit expansion, as is the need to secure the goodwill of stakeholders such as local planning authorities. These issues are magnified by commercial and technological factors, such as the need for adaptability and flexibility to address short equipment update cycles.

Heat exchangers - Design Basics and Choices For Optimizing Results
Heat exchangers are a crucial piece of any application that involves heat transfer. In residential buildings heat exchangers can be found in radiant floor applications, pools, or domestic drinking water applications. In commercial buildings, heat exchangers are used for free cooling applications, chiller and heater loops and district energy. In Industrial and Process applications, heat exchangers are found in areas such as steam plants transferring heat from steam to water. They are also used in the refrigeration cycle as evaporators and condensers in chillers to save space and improve efficiency.

Power Factor: Its Impact on Commercial Buildings and Remediation
Power factor is a measure of how effectively electrical power is being used by a system. It is defined as the ratio of real power (measured in kilowatts, kW) to apparent power (measured in kilovolt-amperes, kVA). Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Harmonics: Causes, Effects, and Remedies in Commercial Buildings
Harmonics are voltage or current waveforms that are distorted from their fundamental sinusoidal shape. They are multiples of the fundamental frequency (50 or 60 Hz) and are generated by non-linear electrical loads. These are loads that draw current in abrupt pulses rather than in a smooth sinusoidal manner. Common sources include:
