Immersion cooling is a relatively new process but very powerful in creating efficiency. Immersion cooling is a method of keeping electronic components cool by submerging them in a non-conductive liquid. Immersion cooling can be useful for:
One of the benefits of immersion cooling is the low power requirements. The immersion cooling system can achieve a power usage that is up to 10 times lower than traditional data center cooling methods. This is due to the fact that there is no need for fans or pumps in the system, which means that there is no air being moved around and no energy wasted on cooling the air.
Additionally, immersion cooling systems are very efficient at transferring heat away from the servers, allowing them to run cooler and longer. This results in less wear and tear on the hardware and a longer lifespan for the equipment.
How to Pick an Immersion Cooling Liquid
When choosing a liquid to use in immersion cooling, it is important to consider the specific needs of the system. Some factors to consider include the boiling point of the liquid, its toxicity, and its corrosiveness.
The boiling point of the immersion cooling liquid is important because it determines the maximum temperature that can be reached before the liquid boils away. Toxicity is also important to consider. Corrosiveness is another important factor, as some liquids can corrode metal surfaces over time.
