IRS Data Center Cooling Could Save $3 Million
The Internal Revenue Service could save more than $3 million over four years by implementing better cooling techniques in two of its data centers, according to an auditor’s report released last month. IRS data centers in Memphis, Tenn. and Martinsburg, W.Va., currently suffer from inadequate design in several areas that is limiting their cooling abilities, according to a … [Read more...]
Data Centers Play Key Role in Transferring Medical Information
The issue of building new data centers and retrofitting or expansion of older ones to handle more sophisticated and increased amounts of medical data has become more critical as the Obama administration has announced that $975 million in grants will help states, doctors and hospitals move from paper to electronic record-keeping. Continuous power supply and proper cooling … [Read more...]
Energy Efficiency Reshapes Thermal Management Challenges
Electronic equipment manufacturers are increasingly more focused on achieving high efficiency levels for their circuit designs in response to global concerns about the impact on the environment. However, the thermal benefits of high efficiency circuit design are often offset by the heat generated due to the trend for more densely packed components. Factors such as limited … [Read more...]
