STANDALONE AND SCALABLE LIQUID COOLING MODULES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17971348 titled 'STANDALONE AND SCALABLE LIQUID COOLING MODULES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a modular system for cooling Information Technology (IT) components using both liquid and air cooling methods.

  • The first module contains at least one dry cooler that provides liquid cooling to liquid heat exchange devices.
  • The second module contains at least one liquid heat exchange device that cools the IT units in a facility.
  • The system can also supply cooling liquid to an air to liquid heat exchange device in the facility.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in data centers, server rooms, and other IT facilities to efficiently cool IT components.

Problems Solved

This system solves the problem of efficiently cooling IT components to prevent overheating and ensure optimal performance.

Benefits

The modular system provides a flexible and efficient cooling solution for IT components, improving their longevity and performance.

Potential Commercial Applications

This technology can be used by IT companies, data centers, and server hosting facilities to enhance the cooling systems of their IT infrastructure.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be traditional liquid cooling systems for IT components, which may not be as modular or efficient as the system described in the patent application.

Unanswered Questions

1. How does the modular system handle maintenance and repairs? 2. What is the estimated cost of implementing this cooling system compared to traditional methods?


Original Abstract Submitted

Multiple systems for providing liquid and air cooling for IT components is disclosed. The modular system for cooling Information Technology (IT) includes a first module with at least one dry cooler that supplies liquid cooling to at least one liquid heat exchange device, and a second module with at least one liquid heat exchange device that provides liquid cooling to a facility with one or more IT units. The modular system may also provide cooling liquid to an air to liquid heat exchange device of the facility.
