2. Methodology
 1. Create “Smart-aisle containment system” utilizing
racks and in-line A/C units to dramatically reduce
cooling footprint from 600 square feet to 60 square
feet, a reduction of 90%.
 2. Implement two networked precision cooling units to
circulate airflow directly at data center equipment and
regulate temperature as needed per rack mounted
temperature sensors.

3. Initial design
The example below illustrates the original design
Original design
Original cooling footprint was
600 sq. ft., huge wasted space.

4. Revised design
The example below illustrates the revised design
New design
New cooling footprint design is 60 sq. ft.,
equals 90% reduction from original design.

5. Benefits of redesigned cooling system
 Cost Savings: TBD after service commencement date
 Operations and Maintenance: Reduced monthly and
annual cooling costs due to 90% smaller cooling
footprint.
 Efficiency: Controlled thermodynamics and contained
area provide higher efficiency cooling and lower
operating costs. Benefits of fiber optic integrity
