The formulation of coolant in high performance servers differs depending on the cooling method and specific requirements; however, these coolants are typically classified into two categories.
- Water-Based Coolants: Closed-Loop systems frequently employ these types of coolants, which are a combination of water and other compounds. These coolants are favored for their safety and high thermal conductivity in indirect cooling systems.
- Dielectric Fluids: Immersion cooling fluids are electrically non-conductive, enabling servers to be directly submerged in the coolant. They are specifically designed to optimize heat transfer without endangering electronic components.
In order to prevent and reduce foam that can impede heat transfer and result in inefficiencies,
both of these fluids typically contain additives such as anti-foaming agents. Other additives safeguard surfaces from corrosion and wear, while all-important stabilizers mitigate thermal and oxidative degradation under what can be extreme operating conditions. The ideal combination of base liquid and additives is contingent on the cooling requirements, environmental impact considerations, and system design.
Regular high performance server coolant testing picks up issues in time to maintain the integrity of the coolant and prevent damage. To get started with coolant analysis , oil analysis, and/or training visit https://testoil.com/company/contact-us/; call 216-251-2510; or email sales@testoil.com.
