On this Sponsored DCR Interview, Jordan O’Brien speaks with Tony Fischels, Vice President of PowerOne, a division of Airsys, about what AI-driven energy density is doing to knowledge centre cooling – and why the business might have to rethink the way it measures effectivity.
Tony breaks down PowerOne’s two single-phase liquid cooling answer units (together with direct-to-chip) and introduces LiquidRack, a server-level spray cooling strategy that delivers coolant on to the chip (with no chilly plate). We additionally discover how transferring pumps and warmth exchangers nearer to the rack can simplify infrastructure, help legacy knowledge centres with restricted house, and assist cut back the ‘ancillary tools’ footprint as rack densities climb.
The dialog additionally covers why Airsys is selling Energy Compute Effectiveness (PCE) alongside Energy Utilization Effectiveness (PUE) – and the way a ‘thermal evolution path’ may assist operators design immediately whereas getting ready for tomorrow (together with potential two-phase options).
