Different Cooling Approaches

Direct Liquid Cooling

How It Works: Direct Liquid Cooling (DLC) is a highly efficient solution designed for servers installed in racks. It utilizes cold plates attached to critical components like CPUs, GPUs, and memory to directly absorb heat. The system employs a hydrocarbon-based liquid in a closed loop to transfer heat, which is then dissipated or reused via air or a secondary cooling loop.

Key Benefits: Exceptional thermal efficiency, reducing risk of overheating in high-density environments. Its closed-loop design is easy to integrate and maintain, and its ability to reuse heat enhances sustainability and efficiency.

2-Phase Direct Liquid Cooling

How It Works: Two-phase direct liquid cooling is an ultra-high-performance cooling solution that uses a water-less dielectric fluorocarbon-based liquid. This advanced system leverages a phase change from liquid to vapor to efficiently absorb and dissipate heat, ensuring uniform heat distribution across components and eliminating hot spots.

Key Benefits: Superior thermal performance, enabling consistent and efficient heat management. The captured heat can be dissipated or reused via air or a secondary cooling loop, enhancing energy efficiency and sustainability.

Direct-to-Chip (D2C) Cooling

How It Works: Direct-to-chip cooling involves placing a cold plate directly onto the heat-generating components, such as CPUs or GPUs. Coolant is circulated through the cold plate, absorbing heat directly from the source and transferring it away.

Key Benefits: Highly efficient heat transfer, targeted cooling of critical components, and reduced risk of overheating.

Immersion Cooling

How It Works: Immersion cooling involves fully submerging servers in a dielectric liquid to absorb heat directly from all components. This innovative approach captures 100% of the heat generated by the hardware, offering an efficient and effective thermal management solution for high-performance computing environments.

Key Benefits: Enables denser server configurations while significantly reducing the need for mechanical cooling, leading to lower energy consumption. Additionally, the captured heat can be reused, enhancing sustainability, and overall operational efficiency.

Rear-Door/In-Row Heat Exchangers

How It Works: Rear-door heat exchangers are mounted on the back of server racks. As hot air exits the servers, it passes through the heat exchanger, where it is cooled by a liquid circulating through the unit. In-row heat exchangers pull air from the hot row and return cooled air to the row.

Key Benefits: Easy to retrofit into existing data centers, efficient use of space, and improved overall cooling performance.

Modular Datacenters

How It Works: Modular datacenters are prefabricated, self-contained units that integrate power, cooling, and networking to deliver full-scale computing capabilities in a compact footprint. Designed for fast deployment, they offer a flexible and scalable alternative to traditional facilities—ideal for remote sites, rapid growth scenarios, or space-constrained environments.

Key Benefits: Quick to deploy and easy to relocate or expand, modular datacenters reduce upfront construction time and cost. Their customizable design supports diverse workloads while minimizing operational disruption.
