Abstract

As the national digitization process accelerates, the number and energy consumption of data centers are increasing year by year. Want to reduce the PUE of the data center. It is correct to start from the perspective of optimizing the energy consumption of air conditioning system operation. In this paper, a predictive optimization control method that is different from previous real-time optimization control is proposed. Predict, optimize, control and adjust the operating parameters of the air conditioning water system in the data center. At the same time, it solves the energy saving problem of the air conditioning system and the lag problem of previous adjustments. Predictive optimization control has broad prospects in research on operation optimization of data center air conditioning water systems.
