Abstract
A two-phase liquid immersion cooling system is described in which heat generating computer components cause a dielectric fluid in its liquid phase to vaporize. The dielectric vapor is then condensed back into a liquid phase and used to cool the computer components. Using a pressure controlled vessel and pressure controller, the disclosed system may be operated at less than ambient pressure. By controlling the pressure at which the system operates, the user may influence the temperature at which the dielectric fluid vaporizes and thereby achieve increased performance from a given computer component. Utilizing robotic arms and slot-in computing components, a self-healing computing system may be created.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- a tank configured to hold thermally conductive, condensable dielectric fluid;
- a pressure controller to reduce or increase an interior pressure of the tank;
- a rack at least partially submerged within the dielectric fluid;
- a condenser for condensing a gas phase of the dielectric fluid;
- a robot configured to move a chassis within the rack;
- and
- a sump area;
- a pump;
- and
- a filter;
- wherein the pump is configured to remove the dielectric fluid from the sump area and pass the dielectric fluid through the filter before delivering the dielectric fluid to a bath portion of the tank.
