Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A container data center includes a container, a row of racks installed in the container, an air conditioner, and a heat insulation apparatus. A cool channel and a heat channel are defined at two opposite sides of the row of racks. The removable heat insulation apparatus divides the cool channel into a first space and a small second next to the racks, and maintains the cooled air in the second space. Cooled air from the air conditioner is fed into the second space air conditioner, flows through the racks to remove heat generated, and enters the heat channel.
