ABSTRACT:
A cooling solution is provided for a modular data center. The modular data center includes a plurality of racks, each of the racks having a front face and a back face, wherein the plurality of racks is arranged in a first row and a second row, such that the back faces of racks of the first row are facing the second row, and the back faces of the racks of the second row are facing the first row, a first end panel coupled between a first rack of the first row and a first rack of the second row, the first end panel having a bottom edge and a tope edge, a second end panel coupled between a second rack of the first row and a second rack of the second row, the second end panel having a top edge and a bottom edge, and a roof panel coupled between the top edge of the first panel and the top edge of the second panel. Cooling equipment within at least one of the equipment racks draws hot air from between the rows of racks and delivers cooled air out of the front face of one of the racks.
