<p>A data centre building (100) comprises a rack room (140) comprising a plurality of racks (143) housing computer servers, at least one cold aisle (144), and at least one hot aisle (145). The data centre building (100) comprises a first set of air circulating devices, provided external to the rack room for example in an air optimiser unit (111), for transporting cooling air (118) from a cold aisle (144) via a rack (143) into a hot aisle (145). One or more racks (143) optionally comprise a second set of air circulating devices for cooling the rack- mountable electronic components. The cooling power of the first set of air circulating devices is greater than the cooling power of the second set of air circulating devices (if present). The first set of air circulating devices is used as the primary means for transporting cooling air (118).</p> |
