Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of cooling electronic equipment is disclosed and includes substantially continuously circulating ambient air across a plurality of rack-mounted electronic devices, monitoring the temperature of air in or around a group of devices in the plurality of rack-mounted electronic devices, and providing substantially cooler-than-ambient air to the group of devices when the monitored air temperatures rises above a set value.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of cooling electronic equipment, comprising: circulating ambient air directly from a workspace across a plurality of rack-mounted electronic devices located in a rack that is open to the workspace during ordinary operation; monitoring the temperature of the ambient air circulated across a group of devices in the plurality of rack-mounted electronic devices; and providing cooler-than-ambient air simultaneously with the ambient air to the group of…
