Abstract
A zettascale supercomputer may be configured using an array of servers organized in computer pods comprising 4-60 servers per pod. Each server includes computer modules immersed in a tank in which cooling water is flowing. Copper bus bars deliver power to each pod in a range of 4-180 MW. Cooling water is delivered to each pod in a range of 200-24,000 gallons per minute. Supercomputers having an operating power in a range of 4 MW-10 GW are described.
Claims17
A supercomputer comprising:
- at least one computer pod comprising an array of servers, the array of servers comprising 10-200 servers, each server in the array of servers comprising:
- a tank in which cooling water is capable of flowing;
- and
- a plurality of computer modules in the tank, each of the plurality of computer modules including a conformable water-impermeable coating that coats the entire module except for an opening at the top, wherein the water- impermeable coating of each of the plurality of computer modules comprises plasma-activated covalent bonds between a layer of the coating and the underlying respective computer module.
