Immersed Liquid Cooling Energy Storage

What is immersion cooling?

Since the first discovery of immersion cooling in the 19th century for usage in transformers until now, it has been developed rapidly for various applications in the latest technology. Initially, the method of immersion cooling with mineral oil only focuses on maintaining electronic components’ temperature to prevent overheating .

Can immersion cooling improve China's Energy Security?

Its operation marks a successful application of immersion cooling technology in new-type energy storage projects and is expected to contribute to China's energy security and stabilization and its green and low-carbon development. Developed by China Southern Power Grid (CSG), the plant has a capacity of 70 megawatts/140 megawatt-hours.

What is immersion cooling with mineral oil?

Initially, the method of immersion cooling with mineral oil only focuses on maintaining electronic components’ temperature to prevent overheating . However, current immersion cooling functions to save energy.

Why should a data center use immersion cooling?

The heat captured by the dielectric immersion liquid directly allows less efficient room air conditioning systems to be turned down or even shut down . The use of immersion cooling in the data center does not need to add a chiller and without adding a raised floor so that it saves energy and construction costs .

Is immersion cooling a viable alternative to traditional cooling methods?

Immersion cooling technology was concluded to be feasible and superior to traditional techniques as a cooling method to save energy which is supported by several advantages:

What is liquid cooling technology?

Liquid cooling technology improves the efficiency of data centers and enables heat to be reused , . It is possible to provide electricity to a large capacity chiller using an immersion cooling system in particular .
