Rack Thermal ManagementRack thermal management refers to the practice of controlling the temperature within a rack, or a group of racks, to ensure that the electronic devices or components that are stored in the rack are operating within their safe temperature range. Rack thermal management is an important part of maintaining the reliability and performance of electronic systems, as excessive heat can cause electronic components to fail or malfunction.
Rack thermal management typically involves a combination of different techniques and technologies, such as air conditioning, ventilation, and air flow management, to control the temperature within the rack. These techniques may be used individually or in combination, depending on the specific requirements and characteristics of the system. Rack thermal management may also involve the use of specialized equipment, such as fans, heat sinks, or thermostats, to control the temperature within the rack. Proper rack thermal management can help to prevent overheating and improve the reliability and performance of the electronic devices and components that are stored in the rack.
