So how are data centers cooled with water now? Does the water cool coldplates directly?
Sort of, see for example the Rittal LCP system.
I've had only a couple of instances where cooling water was used. In
All current high-density rack systems need liquid cooling. I want to remind that a single rack may produce 10kW of heat or more.
the case of CDC mainframes, it was used to cool the condenser coils in the refrigeration units (located in the mainframe). I believe that Cray initially used the same guy that CDC used to fabricate the cooling tubing.
That is how todays rack systems work. Christian
