Manufacture impact

The manufacture impact of a rack server:

\[ \text{enclosure}_\text{manufacture}^\text{criteria} = \text{rack}_\text{manufacture}^\text{criteria} \]

The manufacture impact of a blade server:

\[ \text{enclosure}_\text{manufacture}^\text{criteria} = \text{blade}_\text{manufacture}^\text{criteria} + \frac{\text{blade_enclosure}_\text{manufacture}^\text{criteria}}{16} \]

Usage impact

Only power consumption is implemented. In most cases, enclosure doesn't consume electricity.
