WATCH NOW cooling will become the preferred and necessary solution for data centres to cope with AI clusters effectively . This is due to traditional air-cooling systems becoming less efficient for high-density setups .
“ Here Direct-to-Chip liquid cooling , where a cooling fluid is circulated through the servers to absorb and dissipate heat , is quickly gaining popularity as a more effective way to handle the concentrated heat generated by AI clusters ,” he adds .
“ Compared with air cooling , liquid ooling provides many benefits for data centres . From improved processor reliability and performance to space savings with higher rack densities to more thermal inertia with water in piping , liquid cooling increases energy efficiency , improves power utilisation , and reduces water usage .”
