Shumate Engineering Unveils Revolutionary Cooling Design for Data Centers
Shumate Engineering introduces a hybrid-dry adiabatic cooling design that significantly reduces power and water consumption in data centers, addressing the critical challenges of energy use and environmental sustainability in the booming data center industry.

Shumate Engineering has launched a patent-pending Hybrid-Dry/Adiabatic-Cooling (HDAC) design, marking a significant advancement for the data center industry. This innovative solution reduces power usage by half and water consumption by over 90% compared to traditional cooling systems, offering a sustainable and cost-effective alternative for data center operators.
The HDAC design was presented at AFCOM’s Data Center World conference, where it received widespread acclaim for its potential to address the dual challenges of energy efficiency and water conservation. With the data center industry facing unprecedented demand due to the rise of artificial intelligence and cloud computing, Shumate Engineering's solution comes at a critical time.
Test results from the Baltimore Aircoil Company's facility confirmed the HDAC system's ability to maintain optimal cooling temperatures under various conditions, further validating its efficiency and reliability. This breakthrough not only promises to reduce operational costs but also aligns with global sustainability goals, making it a pivotal development for the future of data center infrastructure.
