- Steering Commitee Representative is Steve Mills
High performance computing has used liquid cooling for many years. These solutions have proven to be cost effective and efficient at heat extraction. With the growth of 5G, IoT, VR, CDN, and latency sensitive applications, data centers are being constructed in regions of the globe where cooling becomes quite a challenge. Increased power density also introduces cooling challenges. In these cases liquid cooling, and specifically warm water cooling, becomes an effective alternative for heat extraction.
Scope
The Cooling Environments Project will focus its efforts in 5 functional areas of the data center:
- Cold Plate
- Advanced Cooling Facilities
- Immersion
- Door Heat Exchanger
- Heat Reuse
- Hardware Management for LC workstream
