Purpose: The Cooling section in Tower of Power is designed for early-stage proposal, capacity planning, and BOM estimation. It does not replace detailed HVAC or cooling system design.
- PUE Baseline: Uses Target PUE to estimate total facility overhead. This represents facility-level overhead, not specific cooling equipment power.
- Air / Liquid Estimate: Uses simplified thermal split (air vs liquid) and empirical electrical overhead ratios to estimate planning-level cooling power.
- Cooling Power Level: Represents electrical overhead ratio (fans, pumps, CDU auxiliaries). It is not COP, EER, or vendor efficiency.
- Manual Equipment Rows: Intended for vendor-aligned, equipment-specific power sizing. Overrides Auto Estimate.
Disclaimer: All cooling results are indicative estimates only. Final cooling system design must be validated by qualified cooling engineers and equipment vendors.
