Tank for cooling of computing devices using liquid immersion

A cooling tank for cooling computing devices comprising:

• a container comprising at least four side walls each comprising an external surface, the side walls defining a cooling space, the side walls further defining at least four container edges wherein the container edges are substantially perpendicular to a container base and comprise at least one mounting brackets, each of the at least one mounting brackets comprising at least one first mounting structure, wherein the cooling tank further comprises a racking system configured to support the computing devices within the cooling space;
• and
• a plurality of supporting structures, each supporting structure comprising a set of reinforcing members in contact with the external surface of the at least four side walls, wherein each of the plurality of supporting structures is configured to extend substantially around an outer perimeter of the container defined by the side walls parallel to the container base;
• wherein each reinforcing member comprises at least one second mating structure configured to interface with the at least one first mounting structure;
• and
• wherein the reinforcing members substantially resist deflection of the container walls when the container contains liquid coolant.

A cooling tank for cooling computing devices, the cooling tank comprising:

• a container configured to receive coolant in a cavity of the container, the container comprising a bottom panel and a plurality of side walls extending from the bottom panel, wherein two of the side walls are oppositely disposed;
• a separation panel disposed within the container, the separation panel connected to:
• (i) the oppositely disposed side walls;
• and (ii) the bottom panel;
• to divide the container cavity into a cooling space and a return space;
• a perforated panel disposed towards the bottom panel of the container and connected to:
• (i) the oppositely disposed side walls;
• and (ii) the separation panel;
• to partition an inlet space from the cooling space;
• a racking system configured to support the computing devices within the cooling space;
• a coolant inlet conduit configured to release the coolant into the inlet space;
• a coolant outlet conduit disposed within the return space and extending out of the container;
• wherein perforations defined in the perforated panel are configured to allow passage of the coolant from the inlet space into the cooling space to cool the computing devices therein;
• and
• wherein a top portion of the separation panel is disposed further from the bottom panel compared to an inlet of the coolant outlet conduit.
