Estimate of Heat Produced by Option 61

[TaltosVT]

Hi all,

We're in the process of designing a new computer room for a new facility. In order to figure out our air conditioning requirements, I've been asked to come up with an estimate of how much heat a typical Option 61 might produce.

Anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, I found it in the Large System Planning & Engineering, NTP 553-3021-120 rev 1.0 Oct/2003. Page 171 and 2 gives a table of heat disipation per module; let me know if you don't have that NTP (It's on my SMERL disc, latest rev I think). I can try and cut/paste the info out of the PDF. Or, I can email you that page(s) out of the PDF if you'd like. Looks like most of the modules dissipate around 800 to 1200 BTU/hr. Hope this helps! -Matt

Thanks for the quick replies. I'll check my NTPs when I get back to the office.
