Data Center Heat Recovery [EXT]/ DCF Project
mark.dansie@...
Hello Kevin, Steve, Steve, Jens , Noel
This is a really good discussion and it would be great if you would all consider (and any others in the OCP community) to join us and collaborate in the data center facility project on this subject. We have two workstreams ACS Harmonization and the revision of the ‘Colo Facility Guidelines for the Deployment of OCP Racks’ where we’re intending to create and publish guidelines for heat recovery heat re-use.
If you’re not already on the DCF mailing list please join here https://ocp-all.groups.io/g/OCP-DCF
Also during our next DCF project call on June 17th we’ll be discussing the progress of both of these workstreams.
Kind regards,

Dr Struckmeier – Quick scan of WP looks very informative. Appears you have data addressing
Would be very interested in
Kind Regards & Keep Safe

Don and Steve very good points, Heat recovery and sustainablity is our focus since I founded Cloud&Heat in 2011. We have 19 locations with servers with heat recovery, most of them for heating purposes of adjacent buildings. The original idea was that this makes particular sense for decentralized edge data centers in urban areas and cities. We found that the key is to achive high temperatures in water of 60°C (140F) and beyond to get the transistion from waste head to a valuable resource. This requires quite careful heat exchanger design and flow rate control. However we also found that the optimum temperature for chips and CPU largly varies on the internal structure and semiconductor properties like leakage current vs. low voltage operation. One of our anchor projects is a datacenter in the heart of the financial district of the city of Frankfurt. We completely refurbished the former European Central Bank data center into a complete water cooled data center providing warm water to the skyscraper heating infrastructure. If you are interested in more technical information and energy savings you might check out our white paper: Looking forward towards further discussions, Jens -- Dr. Jens Struckmeier CTO/Founder Cloud&Heat Technologies GmbH #futureofcompute We build the most energy efficient data centers.
