Carries out the energy saving research and analysis of the outdoor air conditioning system in Harbin. Taking a large data center as an example, calculates the energy saving amount. The results indicate that comparing with the conventional air conditioning system, the outdoor air conditioning system can save 756 547 kWh electricity for the data center, and the period of static investment payback is 3.18 years. Analyses and calculates the energy saving amount of 11 representative cities in five climatic zones, providing a reference for  data centers in other regions using the outdoor air conditioning system for energy saving.
