  2. ACS Cold Plate Focus Focus group working on ACS Cold Plate Requirements • Technology Cooling System (TCS) fluid loop - Cooling loop from CDU through rack manifold and IT equipment and back • Provide information/education, classification, and minimal requirement for OCP • Authors: - Jessica Gullbrand, Intel - Nigel Gore, Iceotope - Elizabeth Langer, CPC https://docs.google.com/document/d/1f7supR2NAMiCMZVeT9mmS4-DogFta-cG_He8HRBWsM8/edit

  3. ACS Cold Plate Requirements Focus Technology Cooling System (TCS) Examples In-Rack CDU Row Level CDU Virtual CDU Use the Facility Cooling Liquid in TCS loop Figure by Intel, C. Winkel

  4. ACS Cold Plate Definition Hybrid Cooling – both liquid and air cooling • IT Equipment/Rack (with or without rear-door heat exchanger, RDHX) Full Liquid Cooling – all heat is rejected to liquid • Rack/IT Equipment (with or without RDHX)

  5. ACS Cold Plate Definition Cold Plates – Heat exchangers or heat sinks with internal tubing or channels to allow cooling liquid to flow through Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) – Circulates the cooling liquid to the IT equipment and transfer the heat to the facility cooling liquid Rack Manifold – Distributes cooling liquid within the rack Quick Disconnect Couplings – Disconnects the IT equipment or its components from the TCS loop for serviceability

  6. Cooling Liquid Considerations Cooling Liquids Included (Single- and Two-Phase Liquids): • Water with additives • Glycol based liquids • Dielectric liquids • Refrigerants Material compatibility required between wetted materials and cooling liquid What cooling liquids are covered/considered in DCF?

  7. Liquid Cooling Requirements Pressure Safety Requirements • The liquid cooling loop, its ingredients, and connections must be tested to the highest pressure of the safety standards: • The IEC 60950-1 For EU and US, this standard is outgoing and is expected to be withdrawn on December 20, 2020 in favor of the IEC 62368-1 standard. • The IEC 62368-1 is the new safety standardrequiring leak tests at 3x under normal operating pressure and 2x under abnormal and single fault conditions • ASME B31.3 “Process Piping” (2018) requires leak test at the 1.5x design pressurefor interconnecting piping • What pressure requirements are being considered by DCF? • Standards valid on facility level? On TCS level?

  8. Liquid Cooling Classifications IT Equipment Classifications • Hybrid Basic: CPU/GPU cold plates • Hybrid Intermediate: CPU/GPU & DIMMs cold plates • Hybrid Advanced: CPU/GPU & DIMMs & Additional (specify) cold plates • Full Liquid: cold plates on nearly all components

  9. Liquid Cooling Classifications Liquid Rack Classifications • Hybrid Liquid Cooled Ready Rack without RDHX* • Hybrid Liquid Cooled Ready Rack with RDHX* • Full Liquid Rack Cooling without RDHX* • Full Liquid Rack Cooling with RDHX* *RDHX = Read-Door Heat Exchanger

  10. Performance Metric

  11. Performance Metric PUE versus TUE for liquid cooling PUE = Power usage effectiveness TUE = Total PUE, “PUE” type metric ITUE = PUE for the IT equipment

  21. ACS Cold Plate Purpose Purpose: Generate an open specification and supporting documents focusing on standardization and definitions of liquid cooled solutions without preventing innovation Note: Cold Plate work stream is focusing on liquid cooled solutions using cold plates

  22. Liquid Cooling Requirements Certification Markings • Each liquid cooled technology needs to comply with all certification regulations, which are valid for the geographic location where the liquid cooled system is used. Different regions have different requirements. • Examples: • UL and FCC markings in the US • CE certification in Europe

  23. Cooling Liquid Considerations Water with Additives

  24. Cooling Liquid Considerations Glycol Based Liquids

  25. Cooling Liquid Considerations Dielectric Liquids

  26. Cooling Liquid Considerations Refrigerants
