 As far as data center infrastructure level is concerned, DCSG Simulator is calculates the power and cooling schema of data center equipment with respect to their performance. User is able to take into account a wide variety of mechanical and electrical devices like: transformers, power distribution units, power supply, cabling, computer room air conditioning units and chiller plant. For each of them a numerous factors can be defined, including device capacity and efficiency, load operating points. These data can be derived from a generic list as well as from the information given by particular manufacturers. There is a wide range of pre-defined models, but user can easily extend them or create a new ones.
 
-To perform an IT simulation, it is possible to extend the data center infrastructure by putting IT devices into that data center. That enables detailed simulation of the energy efficiency of devices across a specified time period. 
+To perform the IT simulation, it is possible to extend the data center infrastructure by putting IT devices into that data center. That enables detailed simulation of the energy efficiency of devices across a specified time period. 
 In this case performance of each piece of equipment (facility and IT) within a data center is determined by a combination of factors, including workload, data center conditions, the manufacturer's specifications of the machine's components and the way in which the machine is utilized based on its provisioned IT load. 
-IT is possible to bind the operational characteristics, proper to the particular geographic locations, with the simulation process. These characteristics may include temperature profile as well as the power cost that vary depending on the time and place. The output of this simulation is a set of energy and cost data representing the IT device and data center energy consumption, capital and operational costs.
