Immersion optical report

MIDAS Immersion Cooling was asked to examine the performance of switches with optical interfaces while submerged in mineral oil coolant.
Immersion testing was performed with a Cisco 3508xl optical aggregation switch and Cisco WS- G5484 1000BASE-SX GBICs. AdTran and HP switches were used to provide interconnections to the servers used in the test.

Test Setup
The test setup is shown below. Three test environments were used:
1. Direct connection between servers.
2. Servers connected through switch network, all switches in air.
3. Servers connected through switch network, with the 3508Gxl immersed in coolant.

Dell Poweredge R610 efficiency comparison

Data of test shows the Dell PowerEdge R610 uses up to 62% less power and up to 19 degrees cooler (Celsius) when running in the Midas XCI™ environment over a traditional air-cooled data center.

A comparison of data center liquid cooling technologies

The purpose of this white paper is to provide information about current alternative technologies available for data center equipment cooling. With the proliferation of data centers and the ever increasing density of “processors” or “chips,” traditional computer room air conditioning systems (CRAC) will not be able to adequately and cost-effectively handle future cooling requirements. Therefore, liquid cooling is becoming an attractive alternative to traditional CRACs. The three liquid cooling technologies evaluated in this paper are two-phase immersion cooling, liquid to the chip, and single-phase immersion cooling

Immersion cooling density as a driver of savings

adriandevpd — Fri, 05 May 2023 23:18:40 +0000

In the Data Center industry, higher density server racks are becoming increasingly more common due to more powerful chips. About 15 years ago, a typical data center would be built to support 4-5 kW per rack. Data centers built about 10 years ago were built for densities between 8-10kW.

Today the majority of Data Centers still report server densities below 10kW, although some newer data centers are able to handle as much as 20 to 25 kW per rack.
Higher densities normally mean higher efficiencies as less space and equipment are necessary to perform the same job. However, the biggest challenge facing higher densities are cooling.

MIDAS XCI immersion cooling technology: over 1200 times better.

Dielectric coolant thermal properties comparison vs. air

What if we can change the air?

We know air is a terrible heat conductor, this is the reason why many of our heat transfer processes use water instead. Water is one of the best heat conductors available. Of course, this is problematic as water and electronics do not mix. Therefore, we use the next best thing: dielectric coolants.

Immersion cooling PUE

Use case of an Immersion Cooling Commercial Data Center.

This paper will quantify the Power Usage Efficiency of an Immersion Cooling Data Center. Power usage effectiveness (PUE) is the most common metric used today to describe a data center energy efficiency.

The rapid growth of edge computing is being driven by new classes of digital growth that require local processing, i.e., where the data set is too large and/or the application is too latency sensitive to be transmitted back to a centralized cloud server.

Digital Growth Areas

Growth in edge computing can be attributed to expanding and emerging applications, including: Online shopping, 5G, Internet of things (IoT), Blockchain, Artificial intelligence (AI), Remote learning, Streaming (i.e., videos, video conferencing), Telemedicine.

This technical bulletin has been written to highlight the environmental and reliability challenges of small edge data centers
