Abstract
Recently, Free cooling system usage has increased at many buildings in intermediate and winter season. Free cooling system is used to reduce the energy consumption of refrigeration in that season. Free cooling system is refrigeration system using cooled water. In general, this system is applied with the building having refrigeration load at all time such as a data center. In this study, energy consumption of a data center taking free cooling system in Ulsan was evaluated by the software HYSYS. the main result is as in the following : free cooling system is effective from January to April and from November to December. In case of Ulsna in 2013, using free coolng system is able to spend refrigeration energy of about 15% less than existing system. According to this result, it is appropriated that free cooling system is used in building having refrigeration load at all time such as data center.
