As IT infrastructure grows more dense and CPUs and GPUs generate increasing heat loads, traditional air cooling is struggling to keep pace, driving demand for high-density server cooling solutions. This Top Tips article explores essential considerations to meet modern thermal challenges by evaluating today’s most effective cooling strategies, including liquid and two-phase cooling systems.
This piece breaks down critical considerations such as maintenance requirements, risk tolerance, long-term efficiency, and environmental impact, giving decision-makers the insight to choose a solution that aligns with their performance goals and sustainability priorities. For example, dielectric refrigerants, which are non-conductive and non-corrosive, offer a safer alternative to water-based fluids, reducing risk while maintaining cooling reliability. Two-phase cooling, which harnesses the physics of phase change, provides energy-efficient heat management for high-density deployments while driving down operational costs.
Accelsius’ insightful guide also underscores the importance of designing scalable cooling systems that accommodate GPUs and other high-power components to ensure solutions remain effective as processing power and rack density grow. Whether revamping current deployments or future proofing for what comes next, data center professionals can apply this actionable guidance to navigate the complexities of next-generation data center cooling and make informed choices that align with both performance goals and sustainability initiatives.
