INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND COOLING PERFORMANCE EVALUATION METHOD

摘要

A calculating unit calculates, using information indicating temperatures of a fluid mixture at individual locations across a space, heat quantities transferred to the fluid mixture at the individual locations. The fluid mixture is a blend of a plurality of fluids allowed to flow in by a plurality of cooling apparatuses. The calculating unit calculates heat quantities transferred to each of the fluids at the individual locations based on the heat quantities transferred to the fluid mixture at the individual locations, a velocity distribution of the fluid mixture, and flow rate distributions of the individual fluids. The calculating unit evaluates, using the heat quantities transferred to each of the fluids at the individual locations, the degree of contribution of each of the cooling apparatuses to cooling of an object disposed in the space.
