Data Center: Direct-to-Chip Cooling Cooling systems that target components that are centers of heat production can more efficiently dissipate heat. That’s why direct-to-chip cooling is becoming an increasingly attractive cooling strategy in data centers. While direct-to-chip cooling can target servers’ hottest components, high cost and the risk of cooling system failure mean that this is not always the […]

Data Center Heat Reuse In most data centers, the fate of excess heat generated by servers and other equipment is pretty simple: The heat ends up being dissipated by some type of cooling system — such as chilled air or liquid cooling — and, ultimately, distributed into the surrounding environment. Data center heat reuse involves capturing and repurposing the […]
