Abstract
Data centers present unique noise modeling challenges due to the scale of equipment needed to meet cooling and backup power demands. Three-dimensional environmental noise modeling software that is based on ISO 9613-2 "Attenuation of sound during propagation outdoors" offers a range of modeling techniques. While more detailed modeling techniques may offer more accuracy in the near field, they also increase model calculation run times. Additionally, manufacturer sound emissions data often more closely align with simplified modeling techniques. This evaluation reviews common data center noise sources, reviews the range of manufacturer noise emissions data typically available for such sources, and compares noise modeling techniques with reference to on-site observations.
