AC Vs. DC Power Distribution for Data Centers
sponsored by APC by Schneider Electric
|
|
In this paper, you'll learn why high-efficiency AC will likely emerge as the dominant choice for data center power distribution. Topics covered include:
- A review of the characteristics, features, and limitation of AC and DC distribution
- A mathematical model of the efficiency of two different AC distribution systems and three different DC distribution systems for different operating conditions
- Why many of the DC benefits are unfounded or exaggerated
