These levels can be achieved with normal cable exits from the rack and with a
small amount of hot air bypass at the base of the door (small amounts of hot air
might escape from the rack without being cooled by the door).
Water temperatures below 18°C (64.4°F) can be used only if the system that is
supplying the water is able to measure the room dew point conditions and is able
to automatically adjust the water temperature.
Another example of performance data is shown in Figure 20 for identical
conditions as in Figure 19, except reflecting a 20 kW heat load. Because of the
lower heat load, a specific level of cooling can be achieved with warmer water, a
lower flow rate, or both.
