The Unmatched Performance of 2-Phase Immersion Cooling
Complete 2-Phase Immersion Cooling for Hyperscale, Edge and High Performance Computing, and Cryptocurrency Mining
Cooling the Next Generation of Computing
High performance computing (HPC) and data-intensive technology applications like machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), crypto mining, and high-definition video processing use servers and chips that produce too much heat for air cooling to be practical or efficient.
The Passive 2-Phase Immersion Cooling Cycle
2-Phase Immersion Cooling Explained
- Electronics are completely immersed in dielectric (non-conductive) fluid with no need for bulky heat sinks or fans
- Chip temperatures rise until the fluid boils
- Phase 1 of heat transfer occurs as the hot vapor rises
- Phase 2 occurs as the vapor condenses on a specialized coil
- Condensed fluid falls back into the tank as droplets, beginning the cycle again
- The phase change of boiling leads to automatic convection and higher heat rejection capacity
- The cooling process is entirely passive, with no pumps or moving parts required to reject IT heat
