You need to get the total btu's your room is generating. Add the max
wattage from all devices in the room and multiply by 3.5 to get the
btu's your equipment is generating. Give this to your a/c vendor to find
the right system for your room.

 

If really want to get into a finer level of detail, there are
multipliers to calculate the btu's for the square footage of the room,
lights, windows,...

APC has an online calculator that knows the power requirements of a
variety of equipment. Assume that watts in = watts out in heat.

Anyone know of an online tool that I can input the type of equipment I
have in my server room to determine how much kilowatts of heat they are
generating? I am trying to find what size AC I need to keep my room cool
when building AC is off.

 

Thanks,

 

James
