The new Frontera supercomputer at the University of Texas combines several approaches to liquid cooling, including GPUs immersed in dielectric liquid coolant fluid, and x86 servers using direct water cooling to the processor.
Green Revolution Cooling
Founded in 2009, Green Revolution Cooling is leading the way in immersion cooling technology. Their waterless cooling system, CarnotJet, immerse servers in ElectroSafe coolant to efficiently cool servers without the need for additional fans or air conditioners. This technology has been utilized in high-density applications such as supercomputing, cryptocurrency mining, and edge computing.
