  • Patent number: 9706689
    Abstract: A data center has a room having a cold aisle and a hot aisle and a plurality of electronic components disposed between the cold and hot aisles. At least one air-to-liquid heat exchanger is disposed between the hot and cold aisles. At least one first fan circulates air in the room at a first flow rate. The at least one first fan circulates air through the at least one air-to-liquid heat exchanger from the hot aisle to the cold aisle. An air supply system is fluidly connected to the room. The air supply system includes an air filter, and a second fan supplying air from outside the room to the room at a second flow rate. The second flow rate is lower than the first flow rate. A data center cooling system and a data center having the data center cooling system are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 6550506
    Abstract: A boom assembly for a delimber having an operator boom with first and second ends and a connector boom having first and second ends. Pivot means pivotably connect the second end of the operator boom to the first end of the connector boom, the connector boom aligned with the operator boom. A delimber boom, having a delimbing head at one end, is mounted near the one end to the connector boom at its second end. The delimber boom extends rearwardly from the connector boom and at a slight angle, when the boom assembly is viewed from above, to the connector boom. The delimbing head is mounted on the bottom of the delimber boom and the boom assembly includes at least two butt plates, each movably mounted on the bottom of the delimber boom. The butt plates are spaced apart longitudinally and spaced from the delimbing head toward the other end of the delimber boom.
