A 40-ton EnerSys® battery bank with enough power to carry the maximum load for 17 minutes is available for rare catastrophic situations. It’s highly unlikely, however, that the batteries ever will be used because microturbines are renowned for their high reliability and low maintenance. Extreme Efficiency Through Integration of Multiple Technologies The Green Data Center achieves its renowned energy savings and efficiency through the integration of several advanced technologies, many of which have never been used together in a data center setting. The 12 Capstone microturbines and the trigeneration system are a hallmark of the innovative onsite technologies. IBM was a major partner in the project and provided US$5 million in design services, support, and equipment, such as “cooling doors” that use chilled water to cool each server rack independent of its neighbors. This reduces cooling and energy costs. Two 150-ton Thermax® absorption chillers onsite convert exhaust heat from the microturbines into energy that chills water used to cool the racks and the entire building. A Cain Industries heat exchanger can be used at the same time as the chiller to produce hot water to heat peripheral areas of the data center and the building next door. The system also employs free cooling when the temperature outside is low. A heat exchanger is used to produce chilled water directly from a cooling tower on the roof. IBM also provided computer equipment that operates from a direct current (DC) powered distribution system, thus eliminating traditional power loss associated when converting alternating current (AC) electricity from the utility to DC to power servers. Validus® DC Systems supplied the project with high-voltage DC equipment, including AC-DC rectifiers. Thermax® absorption chillers. Twelve Capstone C65 Hybrid UPS microturbines are installed in Syracuse University’s Green Data Center. The center is designed to use 50 percent less energy than traditional data centers. 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA • 91311 • 866.422.7786 • 818.734.5300 • www.capstoneturbine.com ©2010 Capstone Turbine Corporation.
