Abstract:
A rack louver 120 controls an air flow of outside air external to an enclosure 10 taken into the enclosure 10, flowing from an inlet 20 to an outlet 30 in a rack 60. An outlet louver 130 controls an air flow of inside air internal to the enclosure 10 flowing out from the outlet 30 to outside the enclosure 10. A system control unit 150 adjusts motive power of a blowing unit 40, a degree of opening of the rack louver 120, and a degree of opening of the outlet louver 130 in accordance with an outside-air temperature measured by an outside-air temperature sensor 50 and electronic equipment power consumption measured by a power sensor 100. Consequently, electronic equipment in the rack can be cooled with higher energy efficiency while suppressing temperature rise in the electronic equipment.
