Opportunity

Munters, renowned for their offerings in cooling technologies, is searching for cutting-edge solutions that leverage Digital Twin technology to model their products within Data Center Technologies. This initiative is rooted in our dedication to advancing optimized offerings for data center applications, providing excellent customer service and support, and always striving to improve efficiency, from product design to real-world operation.

Opportunity overview

We are eager to implement physics-based modeling capabilities to better understand the impact of environmental and data center operating conditions on our products’ performance, to better predict how the components within the products operate with given air flows and temperatures. We seek to collaborate with partners who use AI and machine learning to analyze and simulate the behavior of components under various conditions.

The component models should be customizable and allow for integration of vendor-specific performance data as well as actual operational data. The solution should allow for the simulation of a complete cooling unit, enabling detailed physics calculations and providing valuable insights into overall performance. This could enable future capabilities such as predictive analysis and anomaly detection.

By delivering insights into the system environment, these models will significantly enhance operational efficiency and reliability.

Opportunity with us

By integrating cutting-edge system simulation technology, we aim to enhance our product offerings and improve operational efficiency. This collaboration will also enable us to validate system designs, ensuring they meet our high standards and are adaptable to diverse contexts. For our potential partners, this translates to the opportunity to develop their solutions with Munters, achieving component, unit, and whole system simulation, fine tuning models, and growing alongside us.

Examples we're looking for

Physics-based modelling

Develop models of both common and proprietary HVAC components.  Quickly and accurately calculate performance (i.e. thermodynamics, psychrometrics, and energy consumption).

Predictive maintenance & development

The use of models to detect anomalies in products to anticipate problems faster. Provide insights for product development and operations.

Validation and optimization

Use manufacturer and real-world data to tune and validate models. Use models to evaluate simulated or real systems for performance estimation and efficiency optimization.
