Quicklime SensorCFD AI Software Module

Quicklime's sensorCFD AI combines Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation with live environmental sensor data and embedded AI analytics — giving data center operators more than just an airflow visualization. It automatically interprets the results and delivers clear, actionable guidance on improving cooling efficiency and operational performance.

By modeling how air moves through racks, containment systems, and cooling infrastructure, sensorCFD AI detects issues like hot spots, cold air bypass, recirculation, and uneven cooling — then explains the root cause and recommends a fix.

Why it matters: Traditional CFD software typically requires a dedicated specialist. sensorCFD AI brings that same analytical power natively into Quicklime, putting CFD-driven insight directly in the hands of your operations team — no specialist required.

Build your digital twin. An integrated CAD-based modeling tool lets you lay out your data center — starting with a containment pod or rack row — then add key parameters like rack power load, inlet/outlet temperatures, CRAH/CRAC supply and return temps, and airflow rates. Quicklime's simulation engine calculates airflow and temperature distribution across your facility, and the AI reviews the results to surface anomalies and generate an operational report.

What the AI catches:

• Racks receiving too much or too little cooling airflow
• The true cause behind hot spots (not just where they are)
• Cold air bypassing racks and returning to the cooling system unused
• Over-provisioned or poorly balanced CRAH/CRAC units
• Opportunities for energy efficiency gains of up to 10%
