Solution Guide

Types of Liquid Cooling

Direct To Chip

Liquid passes directly on the surface of a chip and draws heat away. The liquid is then cooled through a liquid to liquid heat exchanger, either contained within the rack or externally.

Immersive Cooling

The entire system is immersed in a liquid which cools all components. The warm liquid is then chilled and brought back into the tank.

Rear Door Heat Exchanger

The rear door of a rack contains several fans that draw hot air away from the servers and cool the air before the air is returned to the data centre. The cooling liquid is then chilled externally to the door.

Benefits of Differing Liquid Cooling Options

Method of Cooling	Direct To Chip	Immersion	Rear Door Heat Exchanger
Primary Benefit	Range of Servers can be used	Most Efficient	Least Disruptive
Secondary Benefit	Lower fan speed, noise	Lowest/No Noise	Can be installed later

Liquid cooling is becoming a critical technology that will be needed as CPUs and GPUs run faster and hotter. Removing the heat generated by the latest generation of CPUs and GPUs reduces compute jitter and reduces OPEX for data center operators. While there is an initial upfront investment, the savings over the life of a server or storage system will exceed the original costs. Next-generation processors are expected to consume even more power and produce more heat than today's high-end processors. As HPC and AI move into mainstream corporate workloads, Liquid Cooling solutions will play an even more significant role in adopting these new technologies.

Liquid Cooling Key Components

Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU)

Supermicro CDU contains 1+1 redundant hot-swappable pump systems that circulated the coolant to cold plates cooling down CPUs and GPUs heat. The CDU cooling capacity is up to 100kW enabling extremely high rack densities.

CPU/GPU Cold Plate

Cold plates are placed on top of CPUs and GPUs to cool down chips efficiently by letting coolant flowing through micro channels in the cold plate.

Coolant Distribution Manifold (CDM)

CDM are the distribution pipes that supply coolant to each server and collect the hotter coolant back to the CDU.

Rack-Scale Liquid Cooling Solutions: Superior Cooling, Density, and Sustainability

Supermicro liquid cooling solution can reduce OPEX by up to 40%, and allow data centers to run more efficiently with lower PUE. Supermicro has proven liquid cooling deployments at scale and enables data centers operators to deploy the latest and most performance CPUs and GPUs.
