HP debuts water cooling system
The Modular Cooling System attaches to the side of an HP rack of computing gear, providing a sealed chamber of cooled air separated from the rest of a data centre, said Paul Perez, VP of storage, networking and infrastructure for HP’s Industry Standard Server group.
The system lets a rack consume as much as 30 kilowatts of power – about three times what would be possible otherwise – without posing problems to a data centre’s cooling systems, Perez said. However, the cooling system also requires a connection to an external chilled-water system to cool its water.
