Economizer Modes of Data Center Cooling

In certain climates, some cooling systems can save over 70% in annual cooling energy costs by operating in economizer mode, corresponding to over 15% reduction in annualized PUE.

This paper provides terminology and definitions for the various types of economizer modes and compares their performance against key data center attributes.
