As AI workloads surge and rack densities skyrocket, liquid cooling is quickly becoming essential. But there’s more to it than choosing a cooling method—you’re also choosing the fluid itself. And that choice can mean the difference between operational efficiency and costly downtime.
In this whitepaper, Accelsius breaks down the hidden strengths and critical trade-offs behind the most popular liquid cooling fluids: single-phase direct-to-chip, two-phase immersion, and two-phase direct-to-chip. You’ll discover why water-based solutions come with high maintenance and risk, how designer immersion fluids rack up extreme costs, and why two-phase direct-to-chip offers a smarter, safer path forward.
If you’re evaluating liquid cooling for your data center—or just want to future-proof your strategy—this guide will arm you with the insights you need to choose wisely and cool confidently.
