Liquid cooling systems for data center servers are attracting increased interest, due to the improved energy efficiency and significant capital savings they offer. This presentation will introduce participants to an innovative liquid immersion cooling solution for data centers developed by LiquidCool Solutions in partnership with Engineered Fluids.
For many people, the term “liquid immersion cooling” conjures up images of large tanks with servers bathed in mineral oil or boiling two-phase fluid. LiquidCool Solutions has taken an entirely different approach that achieves all the benefits of other liquid immersion technologies without many of the operational challenges these approaches impose. While all liquid cooling technologies deliver improved cooling energy efficiency compared to air-cooling, LiquidCool systems provide additional benefits that other liquid cooling technologies can’t match. These enhanced benefits include:
- Compatibility with standard server racks
- Reduced weight compared to other liquid immersion cooling approaches
- Modular sealed rack systems that enable servers to be added or removed without exposing cooling fluid
- The ability to recover nearly 100% of server waste heat for effective reuse
- The ability to cool without chillers or evaporative cooling in almost any climate on earth
The key to achieving these benefits is LiquidCool Solutions’ patented Directed-Flow total immersion cooling technology combined with the use of Engineered Fluids’ ElectroCool Biodegradable Dielectric Coolant. Participants will learn how directed-flow immersion cooling works and how it enables LiquidCool systems to deliver its unique combination of excellent cooling performance, high energy efficiency, and adaptability.
Finally, the presentation will include an overview of current LiquidCool pilot data center installations and provide a vision of how data centers can leverage LiquidCool Solutions and Engineered Fluids’ technology to shrink data center size, simplify cooling infrastructure, and dramatically reduce capital expense and operating costs.
