AI cooling – The new digital world
The digital world is rapidly expanding, and data centers are at the forefront. With the ever-increasing demands of AI, high density computing and cloud computing, data centers are seeing unprecedented levels of heat generation. The cooling demands of this high performing computing (HPC) is in its infancy, with predictions that the HPC data center cooling market will soar from a 2024 value assessment of 17 billion dollars to 86 billion by 2033.
The impact of climate change on our planet is undeniable, and so we desperately need a data center cooling solution that is efficient whilst having a minimal impact on the environment. When it comes to the new digital world, air cooling is not the solution; air cooling will always have a purpose, as it’s a simple and cost-effective method of cooling medium to low density racks. However, as the rack densities increase, so must the cooling medium. This makes liquid cooling an effective solution, with its innovative technology, reduction in carbon footprints, maintenance requirements and operational costs, even in the most challenging ambient conditions.
Why would data center operators install liquid cooling?
- Liquid cooling systems are best suited to high density environments
- It significantly reduces energy waste and water consumption (with the closed loop system), making liquid cooling sustainable
- It offers higher thermal efficiency to graphic processing units (GPU) and direct-to-chip cooling
- Optimised energy utilisation with industry low PUE, ensuring maximum operational efficiency
