Knowladge Base: Frequently Asked Questions

In immersion cooling, a liquid is used to transfer heat away from electronic components, such as CPUs or GPUs. The kinematic viscosity of the immersion cooling liquid is an important parameter because it affects the efficiency of heat transfer and the overall performance of the cooling system.

If you’re using immersion cooling to keep your servers and other high-performance computing (HPC) equipment cool, you’re already ahead of the game. Compared to traditional air or water cooling, immersion cooling is a highly efficient and effective method for dissipating heat from electronic components.

It is true that computers and other electronic devices ultimately convert all of the electrical energy they consume into heat. This is a consequence of the laws of thermodynamics, which dictate that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.

In a sense, you could say that immersion cooling creates an “intelligent electrical heater” because it effectively harnesses the heat generated by electronic components for useful purposes.

In traditional air cooling methods, the heat generated by electronic components is simply released into the environment, where it is dissipated and lost. This represents a significant waste of energy, as the heat has the potential to be used for other purposes.

With immersion cooling, the heat generated by electronic components is absorbed by a liquid coolant, which can then be used for various purposes such as space heating or industrial processes. This represents a more efficient use of the heat generated by electronic components and can help reduce overall energy consumption and environmental impact.

So in a way, immersion cooling does turn electronic components into “intelligent heaters” because it enables the capture and use of the heat they generate. However, it is important to note that this is not the primary purpose of immersion cooling, which is to efficiently remove heat from electronic components to prevent overheating and damage. The ability to repurpose the captured heat is an additional benefit of immersion cooling.

• Question: One of our customers asked us if he can install our product in swimming pool technical room with where chlorine smell is perceptible? Since our tank is not fully air tight question was if it might have any impac on the fluid itself or whether our fluid can absorbe chlorine from the air?

• Answear: Normally the concentration of chlorine in a swimming pool is approximately from 0,5 to 1,0 mg per litre. The chlorine smell is coming from Chloramines solved in the water and doesn’t influence the properties of our fluid.

TCO, or Total Cost of Ownership, is a term used to refer to the total costs associated with acquiring and using a product or benefit over its lifetime. This includes not only the initial purchase price of the product or benefit, but also any ongoing costs for maintenance, repairs, and replacement parts, as well as any indirect costs such as the opportunity cost of using the product or benefit.

TCO is often used to compare the costs of different products or benefits, or to evaluate the long-term financial implications of a particular purchase. By considering the TCO, businesses and individuals can make more informed decisions about which products or benefits will be the most cost-effective in the long run.

PUE, or Power Usage Effectiveness, is a metric that is used to measure the energy efficiency of a data center. It is calculated by dividing the total amount of energy used by the data center by the energy used by the computing equipment within the data center. A PUE of 1.0 would indicate that all of the energy used by the data center is used by the computing equipment, while a higher PUE would indicate that some of the energy is being used for other purposes, such as cooling or lighting. A lower PUE is desirable because it indicates that a data center is using energy efficiently and not wasting energy on non-computing tasks.

With our Immersion Cooling technology we allow You lower PUE to to unprecedented values ≤ 1.03

OPEX, or Operating Expenses, is a term used to refer to the ongoing costs of running a business. This includes expenses such as salaries, utilities, supplies, and other costs that are incurred on a regular basis in the course of operating a business. OPEX is in contrast to capital expenditure (CAPEX), which is the money that a company spends on acquiring or upgrading physical assets, such as property, buildings, or equipment. OPEX is typically an ongoing cost, while CAPEX is a one-time expense. The distinction between the two is important because they are often treated differently for financial reporting and tax purposes.

CAPEX, or Capital Expenditure, is a term used to refer to the money that a company spends on acquiring or upgrading physical assets such as property, buildings, or equipment. This is in contrast to operating expenses (OPEX), which are the ongoing costs of running a business, such as salaries, utilities, and supplies. CAPEX is typically a one-time expense, while OPEX is an ongoing cost. CAPEX is often used in the context of large, long-term investments that are expected to provide value to a company over many years, such as building a new factory or purchasing a new piece of equipment.

No, immersion cooling is not a new technology. It has been used in various industries for decades, primarily in the data center and server industries. It is becoming increasingly popular as a way to reduce energy costs and improve cooling efficiency.

But, let briefly talk about history and who was first.
