Considerations of Non-Conventional Liquid Cooling Immersion Technologies

Presentation with the following learning objectives:

  • Understand the basic implementation differences and thermal performance advantages of liquid cooled ITE. 
  • Describe the performance and density advantages of liquid cooled ITE and understand the trends in ITE highlighting the limitations of current cooling solutions as well as why liquid cooling is being implemented. 
  • Introduce the ASHRAE liquid cooling classes and the impact these classes have on the data center design.
  • Demonstrate liquid cooling using real world case studies to understand the advantages and challenges of implementing liquid cooling.
