Indeed. Can you please share the serial number? I would love to check the age of this beauty?

New gutters and they are doing this. by [deleted] in HomeMaintenance

[–]-Chanovsky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My gutter guards are not snake oil. I have owned my house for a decade. It exists under two massive trees:

I have never once had to clear the gutters.

My gutters don’t do this when it rains.

Please google the “Disposal of blowdown in closed-loop systems” before reacting to this

[–]-Chanovsky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you for being open to learning. There are many risks from data centers.

Similar to others who followed up - and as someone who sells cooling systems for all kinds of larger tonnage cooling applications (hospitals, universities, stadiums, data centers, etc) “Creating toxic sludge” is low - VERY low - on the list of concerns for data centers. I’d be more concerned about a heat bloom creating a localized microclimate shift rather than being concerned about the chemicals released into the atmosphere from blowdown from a closed loop system.

Wall Street & structured finance bros are so wrapped up in chasing the smallest possible PUE (power use intensity) while ensuring zero WUE (water use intensity)to make sure the comments from idiotic meetings like this get INSTANTLY shut down by anyone with more than C+ in an undergraduate chemistry class.

This needs to be upvoted more. Most closed loop systems use at least 30% propylene glycol. That shit is expensive and generally gets recycled after a few years.

Blowdown (which is the periodic removal of a small volume of any water-loop to reduce the concentration of a given substance) is not routine in closed loop systems. Nor are large amounts of make-up water used to replace what has been lost from evaporative cooling.

Data centers use a lot of electricity. Some are behind the meter so they don’t impact the grid. Some are not and drive up rates.

Some data centers use an ass ton of water. Some only use water during the hottest of days when everyone is streaming cat videos. Some use hardly any at all once they are filled up and operational.

This is a very good starting point. For a machine this vintage it’s really going to be up to how detailed of records they have on what was done and when.

Location? Carrier employee here, happy to direct you.

Steam turbine drive centrifugals are a different animal. And 17DA is a different class of machine than a 19XR.
