Cooling and Airflow in a Bank Data Center
For QNB’s operations and data center in Istanbul, Alkazar carried out CFD consultancy. High-density white space, uninterruptible power systems and transformer/generator rooms create a significant heat load.
Hot/cold aisle separation, CRAC/CRAH air distribution and cooling redundancy require heat management in the equipment rooms to be resolved through CFD.
