The demand for AI, and increased data center capacity requirements has meant that traditional air-cooled server racked data centers are being superseded by Liquid Cooled Server racks. This new technology allows more server capacity within a similar footprint. However, testing these systems to replicate the Coolant Distribution Units (CDU), and / or the server racks has caused much debate within the industry. Something that Aggreko has recognized and designed a solution for to support this evolving market.
Recognizing the potential risks and to assess the effectiveness of their cooling infrastructure, our client asked us to conduct a series of liquid heat-load tests under real-world conditions, testing the hot loop cooling of their installation over a 12-week period. This rigorous testing process was essential in validating the system’s performance and ensuring that the installed infrastructure was operating to full capacity.
