Current practices permit most computer rooms to use 75°F/24°C supply in the Cold Aisle, understanding that the only temperature that matters in a computer room is the air at the intake to the computer hardware. The Hot Aisle will be substantially warmer. space, IT space, cold aisle, hot aisle) will determine its usage environment. It is also helpful to know whether the equipment is in series with critical IT equipment (i. light g power panel) since this may influence the selection of the power equipm ion of data center. A dedicated section outlines a detailed procedure for assessing the overall cooling health of the data center and optimizing for maximum cooling. And like choosing between Marvel and DC, you must pick a side: Hot Aisle Containment (HAC) or Cold Aisle Containment (CAC). Typically, cold aisles face. Efficient airflow management in data centers relies heavily on proper Hot Aisle and Cold Aisle configurations.
