In data center construction and operations, the cooling system determines almost everything — from equipment layout and energy efficiency to long-term maintenance costs. Whether you’re upgrading an existing facility or building a new AI computing center, selecting the right cooling solution requires a comprehensive evaluation of actual loads, physical conditions, and energy efficiency goals. Key Factors to Consider When [...]
Comprehensive Guide to Rack Cooling in Data Centers With the rapid growth of AI, high-performance computing (HPC), and cloud services, data center power density is rising faster than ever before. As server performance increases, so does the amount of heat they generate — and thermal management has become a critical factor affecting both the stability and energy efficiency of [...]
With the rapid rise of artificial intelligence in recent years, data center cooling demands have surged dramatically. Traditional air-cooling systems are increasingly challenged by high thermal densities, while liquid cooling, with its superior heat transfer efficiency and energy performance, is emerging as a critical trend for the future of data centers. However, before implementing liquid cooling, enterprises must conduct [...]
In today’s era of “computing closer to the user,” data is no longer confined to large, distant data centers. To meet the growing demand for low latency, high reliability, and flexible deployment, micro data centers (MDC) have emerged as a key enabler of edge computing. They integrate the core functions of traditional data centers into a highly compact, plug-and-play [...]
With the continuous growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High-Performance Computing (HPC), data centers are expanding rapidly. According to the Uptime Institute 2024 Global Data Center Survey, nearly two-thirds of data centers have increased their rack power density over the past three years. As rack heat densities rise, operators are seeking more efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly cooling solutions, [...]
Direct-to-Chip Liquid Cooling (D2C) is a high-efficiency thermal management technology that removes heat directly from chip surfaces. It is specifically designed to meet the demanding cooling requirements of High-Performance Computing (HPC), Artificial Intelligence (AI) training clusters, and ultra-high-density servers. According to Grand View Research (2024), the global D2C market is valued at approximately $1.96 billion and is projected to [...]
In recent years, the rapid development of artificial intelligence and large-scale models has made data centers indispensable. As heat density continues to rise, energy efficiency has become an increasingly pressing issue. According to a 2023 report by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), U.S. data centers already consume about 4.4% of national electricity, and this proportion is projected to [...]
With the explosive growth of global data and enterprises’ urgent demand for flexible and scalable IT infrastructure, traditional data centers face a series of challenges, including long deployment cycles, high capital expenditure, limited space, and complex operations. According to IDC, global data is expected to reach 175 ZB by 2025, more than five times the volume in 2020. [...]
Rear Door Heat Exchanger (RDHx) is a high-efficiency cooling device mounted on the rear door of a server cabinet. It removes the heat generated by servers through chilled water circulation. Unlike traditional cooling methods that rely on room-level air conditioners (CRAC or CRAH), RDHx is a cabinet-level precision cooling solution that enables source-level heat removal and localized cooling, thereby [...]
In the world of data centers, power stability is the lifeline. Even a one-minute outage can mean business interruption, contract breaches, or long-term damage to brand reputation. According to the Uptime Institute 2024 Global Data Center Survey, one in five major outages results in losses of more than $1 million (including both direct and indirect losses). The UPS (Uninterruptible [...]
