Heat Capture
Capturing the heat effectively enables the chips underneath the coldplates to function effectively under 100% load.
Today’s coldplates capture heat not only from the processors, but also surrounding components including high-bandwidth memory, voltage regulators.
Through CoolITs leadership in the HPC market, proven, delpoyed solutions have been developed that capture 100% of the heat dissipated by electronics in a server. Going forward, these solutions will become more critical as the heat from other components rises to keep up with the high-TDP chips.
Heat Transportation
The next challenge is transporting this heat effectively and efficiently from the servers and racks to the CDUs. Flow path optimisation is critical here, as high-pressure drops can result in temperature delta’s that negatively impact performance.
CoolIT’s teams of engineers use simulation tools to optimise flow path geometry throughout the loops, manifolds and TCS piping in turn this ensures consistent temperature control across the racks and rows in a complete system. Fluid connections, such as quick disconnects, are also a critical aspect of every fluid network and must be designed and installed to ensure zero-leaks.
Heat Rejection
The final aspect of any DLC system involves rejecting the heat into the ambient air, or more typically into the facility water system. Efficient heat exchange is critical to this process and must be delivered in a compact space to minimise the space occupied by a CDU.
CoolIT has shown leadership in the design of heat rejection systems, refining them to reflect both the high cost of the ITE they are cooling and the precision of the components, notably the coldplates within the TCS system. Today, CoolIT designs include accumulators, filters and reservoirs to compliment and streamline overall operation of the CDU.
Integration & Intelligence
In addition to heat rejection CDUs also provide the intelligent controls behind operating every DLC system as the other components are all passive. CDUs feature an array of sensors and valves that monitor and control the operation.
CoolIT designs solutions that intelligently balance thermal loads in real time and provide data that can be connected to building management systems giving owners and operators clear visibility over how their liquid cooling systems are operating.
