When designing a computer room layout, cooling is one of the most important variables to consider.
A popular and cost-effective method of containing heat produced by IT equipment is through a passive hot air chimney. The chimney is fastened to the top-rear of the cabinet and directs hot air from the cabinet into a ducted plenum (lowered T-bar ceiling). The main purpose of the chimney is to prevent the hot air from mixing with the cool air entering the front of the cabinets.
Preventing hot air from mixing with cold air is important as it can increase your cooling efficiencies and eliminate the need for additional cooling. In some applications, the chimney can eliminate the demand on the facility CRAC or CRAH units resulting in significant operating costs.
