SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMMERSION-COOLED DATACENTERS
A thermal management system includes a server computer and a shell defining an immersion chamber. The shell contacts the server computer along a bottom side and lateral walls of the chamber, and the immersion chamber has an opening on a top side. The shell is connected to the server computer and a portion of the server computer defines at least a portion of the immersion chamber.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMMERSION-COOLED COMPUTERS
An immersion cooling thermal management system includes a heat duct thermally coupled to a heat-generating electronic component. The heat duct has an inlet at a first longitudinal end of a channel and an outlet at an opposite second longitudinal end of the channel. The heat-generating electronic component is thermally coupled with the channel longitudinally between the inlet and the outlet. The outlet of the channel is higher than the inlet relative to a direction of gravity.
MULTIPLE PHASE MULTIPLE SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
A multiple phase cooling system is described for an electronic rack, a cluster of servers, and for a data centers. An inlet of a 3-way flow control valve (FCV) is coupled to a main coolant source. A first outlet of the FCV is coupled to a single-phase cooling system and a second outlet of the FCV is coupled to a two-phase cooling system. The FCV is configured to adjust an amount of coolant between the single-phase cooling system and the two-phase cooling system. Upon detecting a rise in vapor pressure in a return line of the two-phase cooling system, the FCV can be adjusted to direct more coolant to the two-phase cooling system and less coolant to the single-phase system. The FCV can continuously monitor the vapor pressure and adjust the amount of coolant to each cooling system accordingly.
Cooling arrangement having primary and secondary cooling devices for cooling an electronic device
A cooling arrangement for an electronic device comprises a primary cooling device and a secondary cooling device. The primary cooling device includes a fluidic input line receiving a cooling fluid from a cooling fluid source and a fluidic output line returning the cooling fluid toward a drain. The primary cooling device is thermally connected to the electronic device, receives the cooling fluid from the fluidic input line and transfers heat from the electronic device to the cooling fluid before returning the cooling fluid via the fluidic output line. A flow detection device monitors a flow of the cooling fluid in the primary cooling device. The secondary cooling device is thermally connected to the electronic device. A processor activates the secondary cooling device to absorb and dissipate heat from the electronic device when the flow detection device detects a lack of flow of the cooling fluid in the primary cooling device.
Mist cooling for computer systems
A computer system includes a mist cooling system. The mist cooling system suspended droplets of dielectric fluid in air to form a mist and conveys the mist to heat producing components of the computer system. The liquid droplets of the mist wet the heat producing components and remove waste heat as part of a phase change from a liquid phase to a vapor phase. Vaporized dielectric fluid is condensed via a heat exchanger in a chassis of the computer system and is returned to a reservoir for use in generating mist.
