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...]
Hydraulic and Thermal Characteristics of a Double-Sided Cold Plate – Part 2
Tesla Tear Down, CFD Validation, and Machine Learning to Determine the Performance Limit This study investigates the hydraulic and thermal characteristics of the TESLA AUTOPILOT HW2.5 MODEL 3 Y, which features a double-sided cold plate with PCBs attached on both sides. We present a step-by-step teardown process of the unit, measuring internal dimensions, fin locations, … [Read more...]
Liquid Cooling Takes Center Stage at OpenCompute Summit 2024
OCP Global Summit started this week in San Jose and as to be expected, two topics are getting all the attention –AI Compute and Liquid Cooling. Apart from these two, co-packaged optics (CPO) is another topic that has garnered much interest this year at the summit. As for liquid cooling, the market adoption has been primarily in using facility water via coolant distribution … [Read more...]
Power Density In the Context of Two-Phase Immersion Cooling
Abstract Data centers face challenges in balancing space and power, with studies showing that when power density exceeds 7kW per rack, IT equipment space utilization drops to 50%. Traditional cooling methods are reaching limits due to increasing demands from deep learning and AI, necessitating more space. Two-phase immersion cooling offers simplicity and cost savings … [Read more...]
