Designing with liquid-immersion cooling systems

摘要

In simple thermodynamic terms, heat transfer is the exchange of thermal energy from a system at a high temperature to one at lower temperature. In a data center, the information technology equipment (ITE) is the system at the higher temperature. The objective is to maintain the ITE at an acceptable temperature by transferring thermal energy in the most effective and efficient way, usually by expending the least amount of mechanical work.
