Mitigating Flow Maldistribution in Data Center Two-Phase Cooling Systems with Flow Restrictors
By Serdar Ozguc, Qingyang Wang, Akshith Narayanan, Richard W. Bonner III The Need for Two-Phase Cooling in Data Centers Power usage in data centers account for 1.8% of the overall electricity expenditure in the United States [1] and the cooling infrastructures make up 50% of the total energy consumption of the data centers [2]. Power consumption translates to high … [Read more...]
Choosing the Right Liquid Cooling Quick Disconnects — Key Considerations for Optimal Thermal Management
By Cameron Koller, Marketing Development Manager, Parker Hannifin Quick Coupling Division As technology evolves, one challenge remains constant: heat. Servers, supercomputers, and data centers generate massive amounts of heat, with power densities often reaching 10 to 20 kilowatts per rack and, in some cases, significantly exceeding 50 kW in high-performance computing … [Read more...]
