AB - A fresh air-cooling plan is proposed to deal with high energy consumption in  a data center and continuous improvement of temperature resistance  performance in an IT equipment. The modularized data center, which is  designed to adopt outdoor fresh air-cooling method for reducing  temperature, can greatly reduce the energy consumption in data center.  Numerical approach to study on the distribution of flow field, temperature  field and velocity field is given using the CFD software. The results show  that the flow field distribution is uniform, and the temperature  distribution meets the requirements of the data center system. The numerical  results can be used for optimization of the modularized computer room.
