Defining Free Cooling Extending the hours of operating in free cooling mode greatly reduces a site s energy consumption and in turn the operational costs Direct and Indirect Air Free Cooling Potential cooling within ASHREA A1 Envelope Adiabatic Heat Rejection to Atmosphere Maximising atmospheric wet bulb temperature to allow extended hours free cooling. Ocean Water Cooling Often via local district cooling schemes Geothermal Cooling Systems Aquifer Thermal Energy Store (ATES) River or Canal Water Cooling Using a body of water to reject data centre heat 15 / TelecityGroup *Map from the Green Grid Cold Aisle supply temperature = Dry bulb 27 ºC Dew Point 15 ºC
DOCK WATER COOLING 16 / TelecityGroup
Dock Water Suitability Investigate water temperature and quality at positions/depths in the Dock Investigate factors that influence the dock temperature and heat rejection ability Determine the effect of the Data Centre on the Dock Water is this Sustainable? 17 / TelecityGroup
Dock Water Suitability The depth of water intake needs to be a compromise between higher performance and water quality risks Salinity starts to increase below 6m (increased risk of corrosion) Water quality at depths below 6m will decrease due to suspended solids (lower heat transfer efficiency) However, the deeper the water intake, the cooler the temperature (more hours free cooling) Averaged Readings: 29th May 2013 18 / TelecityGroup
Dock Water Annual Temperature The current water temperature profile shows the dock temperature below 17 ºC for more than 75% of the year. This can be used to provide all the required cooling to the data centre (full free cooling ) Partial free cooling can be realised up to 22 ºC dock water, which covers the remainder of the year, subject to a maximum discharge temperature (compressor cooling at part load) Dock temperature influenced by solar radiation (days 180-210 longest solar days) rather than just ambient air temperature 19 / TelecityGroup
Dock Water Annual Temperature Cumulative Annual Temperature Distribution Free Cooling 20 / TelecityGroup Partial Free Cooling Full Mechanical Cooling
Surface Temperature Study Heat is rejected into the dock and then dissipated at the surface to atmosphere Contribution of additional future Telecity sites also included to assess impact Wind intensity, solar radiation and the level of shading included in the thermal model. Results with 10MW Total heat input 21 / TelecityGroup
Temperature Effect on Dock Volume Environmental Quality Standards (EQS) allow an average temperature increase in the dock water body of 3.5 ºC Even with 18 MW discharged into the dock, the average temperature increase would be below 3.0 ºC At present, the Environment Agency have committed to allow up to 15MW discharge into this body of dock water 22 / TelecityGroup
Temperature Effect on Dock Volume The use of the dock as a long term model - To assess sustainability of DWC across the life of the data centre - Assessing total discharge heat over time - Future climate change and environmental impacts on dock water temperature 23 / TelecityGroup
Discharge Plume Study The diagram shows the affect on the dispersion of discharge water temperature at a discharge angle of 30. EQS permits a maximum allowable discharge temperature of 27 ºC Increases heat dissipation into the body of water and causes a lower surface temperature, Introduces a heating effect at the intake Creates a larger thermal curtain across the dock Relative Temperature 24 / TelecityGroup
Discharge Plume Study Avoids the potential for discharge / intake mixing This model ensures the plume velocity does not create a warm water curtain that may prevent fish / organisms migrating throughout the dock Relative Temperature 25 / TelecityGroup
Actual Dock Water Cooling Scheme Telecity Sites at the side of Millwall Inner Dock:DC1: Glengall Bridge Future IT Capacity 4.4 MW DC2: Harbour Exchange 8-9 Future IT Capacity 4.4 MW Energy Cost Comparison: Air Cooled Chiller scheme To Air Cooled Chiller scheme with Dock Water Cooling (DW C) 26 / TelecityGroup
Dock Water Cooling Scheme The intake is at a depth of 6m and discharge is at 3m to avoid warmer water mixing (maximises free cooling) The dock water system is separated from the data centre cooling water by plate heat exchangers The intake has a self cleaning screen to prevent large debris from entering the system and to keep the filters clear 27 / TelecityGroup
Self-Cleaning Intake Screen Intake screen designed to protect dock circuit (pumps, heat exchangers etc) from becoming clogged by debris and foreign materials The screen is kept clean by the continuously rotating jets (using pump pressure through the return line), that sweeps away the debris from the screen 28 / TelecityGroup
PUE Comparison With the reduction in electrical consumption between these systems = Reduced annualised PUE DW C Scheme Annualised PUE < 1.21 compared to Air Cooled Chiller Annualised PUE >1.45 Reduced carbon footprint and significant savings can be realised by the data centre and their customers 29 / TelecityGroup
Total Cost Comparison To use the dock water, abstraction fees per volume are paid to the Canal & River Trust. To help maintain and improve British waterways and associated environment When the dock water usage and license costs are included in the analysis, the saving is more than 350,000 pe 30 / TelecityGroup
