Abstract
This document specifies the cooling efficiency ratio (CER) as a key performance indicator (KPI) for quantifying the efficient use of energy to control the temperature of spaces within a data centre (DC).
This document:
a)ÌýÌýÌý defines the CER of a DC;
b)ÌýÌýÌý describes the relationship of this KPI to a DC’s infrastructure, information technology equipment and information technology operations;
c)ÌýÌýÌý defines the measurement, the calculation and the reporting of the parameter; and
d)ÌýÌýÌý provides information on the correct interpretation of the CER.
´¡²Ô²Ô±ð³æÌý´¡ describes the correlation of the CER and other KPIs.
´¡²Ô²Ô±ð³æÌýµþ provides examples of the usage of the CER.
´¡²Ô²Ô±ð³æÌý°ä introduces the parameters that affect the CER.
´¡²Ô²Ô±ð³æÌý¶Ù describes requirements and recommendations for derivatives of KPIs associated with the CER.
This document is not applicable to cooling systems that are not powered by electricity (e.g. heat-driven absorption chillers).
