How liquid cooling is redefining data center efficiency beyond PUE

|
By Christopher Leonard, Thomas Humphrey, Greg Alexander
| Data Center Dynamics
For years, efficiency was measured one way. It worked until AI changed the equation. Traditional efficiency metrics don't tell the full story. Liquid cooling is becoming the default for AI infrastructure, but the way we measure efficiency requires tracking data center efficiency metrics beyond Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), which only captures energy overhead. AI demands a different question: How much compute does that energy actually produce?

Data center rack densities are rapidly increasing to support high-density AI workloads and high-performance computing (HPC). As a result, the data center power architecture is changing, with 800VDC (direct current) emerging as the new standard for rack power to support these workloads. Alongside this shift, the cooling implications of 800VDC architecture are becoming a critical consideration.

With AI factories pushing power densities beyond traditional infrastructure limits, it has never been more important for data centers to have reliable power and effective cooling. Without them, GPUs cannot deliver full performance. Processors are generating significantly more heat than traditional workloads, requiring advanced liquid cooling systems and methods for effective thermal management.
