Heat Exchangers for Today’s Immersion Cooling Systems
IT advancements and higher power and performance requirements have increased the amount of heat generated in data centers. To lower operating costs, immersion cooling utilizing heat exchangers has gained in popularity. Providing precise temperature control and bulk heat removal, this is also proved to be a more efficient cooling solution.
Heat Exchangers for Today’s Immersion Cooling Systems
Introduction
Increased server rack density has been greatly impacted by advancements in artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), machine learning, blockchain, cryptocurrency and the demand for increased computing power and performance requirements. This has contributed to an increase in the amount of heat generated in data centers. Traditional methods of air cooling have fallen short of meeting the thermal management requirements for the latest generation of servers, central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs).
About Thermoelectric Cooling
Thermoelectric Cooling Technology
Solid-state heat pumps have been in existence since the discovery of the Peltier effect in 1834. The devices became commercially available several decades ago with the development of advanced semiconductor thermocouple materials in combination with ceramics substrates. Thermoelectric coolers are solid-state heat pumps that require a heat exchanger to dissipate heat utilizing the Peltier Effect.
