Indirect Economizer Thermosyphon Split-System

SyCool Split 250 kW Indirect Economizer Thermosyphon Split System

Munters SyCool Split provides an efficient cooling solution for new and retrofit installations where access to a suitable water supply may be limited, expensive or unreliable.

Advantages

  • Split system eliminates duct penetrations
  • No water consumption
  • High-efficiency economization
  • Factory-optimized controls

Figure 1The system nominal cooling capacity is 250 kW. Thermosyphon heat exchangers move heat from the data center to ambient through the evaporation of liquid refrigerant in the SyCool evaporator, and condensing of the same refrigerant in the SyCool condenser. The evaporator is connected to the condenser with refrigerant piping allowing up to 500′ of separation (see installation manual for specific fitting losses). As long as the condenser receives air cooler than the evaporator, heat is exchanged passively for “free  cooling” of the data center. A simplified version of the system is schematically shown in Figure 1, right.
The SyCool 250 thermal effectiveness is nominally 65%, which greatly exceeds that of competing refrigerant based economizer systems. For example, with air delivered to servers at 75°F and a 20°F delta T across the servers, SyCool achieves 100% free cooling  when the ambient dry bulb temperature is 62°F or lower (operating at 75% load). As ambient temperature rises, SyCool transitions from passive to active by staging/modulating compressors located in the condenser section. Data center heat is rejected by the  thermosyphon, passively or actively without the need for diverting valves, allowing seamless transition from economizer to active cooling. As the ambient temperature approaches the temperature from the servers, SyCool finally loses free cooling capacity. The  high heat exchange effectiveness coupled with the ability to economize simultaneously with active refrigeration, yields best-in-industry economizer capture efficiency.Munters SyCool Split 250 kW Indirect
