Data centre cooling systems like chilled water, which use heated water to cool air delivered in by air handlers (CRAHs), are frequently employed in mid- to large-sized data centers. In some part of the building, a chiller plant provides water.
Cooler air is injected into the space to replace the warm air that has been removed from the data centre. One of numerous methods, including venting hot air outside and then bringing outside air inside, chilling it, and circulating it throughout the facility, are generally used to accomplish this.
The Canada Data centre water-cooled chiller system market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
In an effort to lower costs for businesses, manage data ethically, and assist them in lowering their carbon footprint, OVHcloud introduced a novel hybrid fluid cooling strategy for cooling its data center. While most data center utilize fans to circulate cool air, liquid cooling uses water or other dielectric liquids like transformer oil, perfluoroalkanes, or purified water to absorb and dissipate heat. Water is far more effective at transferring heat away than air is.
Both immersion cooling and liquid cooling are used in the hybrid OVHcloud cooling system. It comprises of a passive natural single phase immersion cooling system and a direct-to-chip water cooling system, both of which are housed in racks that were created especially for it and can accommodate up to 48 servers, each in their own individual enclosure.
An electronic device or IT component, or even entire servers and storage devices, are immersed in a thermally conductive but electrically insulating dielectric liquid or coolant as part of the thermal management approach known as immersion cooling.
More than simply central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs), the fluid in the tank cools all of the server’s IT hardware. The efficiency of any component not being cooled by OVHcloud water cooling systems is improved since the fluid basically replaces the air that would have been circulating in OVHcloud racks.
The new “passive rack design” eliminates pumps and fans from the rack, which means there is no electricity usage for cooling at the rack level.
