Inquiry
Is it acceptable to use research on potential efficiencies of data center equipment, as published in an ASHRAE Journal article, to demonstrate the difference between baseline and design performance of a data center?
Ruling
The performance metrics in the article itself are based on models generated by authors to demonstrate "order of magnitude savings possible" and do not provide any confidence in the effectiveness of the measures listed. Efficiencies and energy savings should come from manufacturers\' documentation. Applicable internationally.
