  1. ASHRAE Technical Committee TC 9.9(Mission Critical Facilities, Technology Spaces, & Electronic Equipment / Systems)www.tc99.ashraetcs.org

  2. Different World’s of IT & Facilities Datacom Equipment (IT) – 2 to 5 years Building Cooling System – 10 to 25 years 5 x (2 to 5 years) = 10 to 25 years • Mismatch in refresh rate – multiple refreshes of datacom equipment during the lifecycle of a building cooling system • Building Industry pressured by concerns about; Over-design, Under-design, Stranded capacity • Ashrae Applications Handbook • Chapter 36 – Owning & Operating Cost • Table 3 Service Life – 10 to 35 years

  3. Bottomline • 2 Years in the IT industry can be a lifetime (full life cycle) • TC 9.9 must always consider that although 2 years borders on being a blip in the Institutional World, it is very significant in the IT World. • The industry is in dire needs of the information now; 2 years from now is a lifetime!!! • We must manage our resources & use all practical expediting means to publish unbiased material quickly

  4. Atmosphere ROOM RACK Drawer Card Module Heat Flow Path Chip Transistor The Challenge – Macro – Micro / Full Range Relative Scale Comparison – Rack to Room Assume a Rack at 5 to 10 square feet Assume a Room at 5,000 to 10,000 square feet Relative scale difference is 1,000 to 1

  5. ASHRAE Overview • ASHRAE (formed 1894) is non profit technical society; specializes in cooling. • ASHRAE has over 50,000 members & 2,000 technical committee members • ASHRAE focuses on maintaining an unbiased role within the industry • ASHRAE actively writes standards, guidelines, model codes, etc. • ASHRAE has over 100 standards / guidelines, almost 100 technical committees. Computer Room Air Conditioner (Circa 1970) Ice Cooled System (Circa 1890) General Electric Room Cooler (Circa 1932)

  6. ASHRAE - What is Commercialism? • Commercialism is inclusion of visual, written, or verbal references to ANY ORGANIZATION for the promotion or commercial advantage of that organization or the commercial disadvantage of a competing organization. • What is not allowed: • References to companies, universities, consulting firms, contracting agencies, research agencies, government agencies & government-sponsored agencies • Inclusions of tradenames, names of software, logos or other readily recognized identifiers related to the HVAC&R industry • Inference that ASHRAE approves or endorses any product, software or system for any reason, even if the product, software or system complies with an ASHRAE standard. • Copies of papers or portions, or other information SHALL NOT be made available at ASHRAE technical sessions, symposia, seminars, or forums.

  7. ASHRAE – Commercialism • Pipe Manufacturer – related to HVAC industry • Cover it up • Computer manufacturer logos. Is it a company related to HVAC industry? • If so, cover it up. • If not, cover it up. • could leave it if covering up is too difficult

  8. What’s an ASHRAE Technical Committee (TC)? • A group of volunteers who provide the Society with expertise in a specific field or subject (Manufacturers, Consultants, Researchers, Universities, Utilities, Regulators, Contractors, and Government). • Participate in 5 Areas • Standards • Handbooks • Program • Technical Activities • Review technical papers submitted to the Society • Advise Society on technical matters related to the TC’s expertise.
