Oils STILL ain't Oils
In this article, we explore the world of immersion fluids used in cooling systems. Optimal performance, heat transfer efficiency, and system longevity hinge upon the selection of the most suitable immersion fluid. Attributes like high thermal conductivity, low viscosity, and exceptional dielectric properties are non-negotiable in ensuring effective heat removal. As discussed in a previous article (Oils ain't Oils | LinkedIn), there are two methods in deploying immersion cooling, being single-
Oils ain't Oils
If you are Australian, and over 40, you might remember this as a nostalgic catchphrase from the 80's and 90's, advertising motor oil made by Castrol. While typically referred to as Oil, immersion cooling uses dielectric fluids to cool IT load - a non-corrosive, non-conductive liquid and either non-flammable or very high flashpoint, that has the viscosity of a mineral or baby oil. Types of Immersion Cooling Single-phase and two-phase immersion cooling are two different approaches to cooling e
GPU's: What are they, where did they come from, why do I need one for AI?
The history of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) is a fascinating journey that begins with their humble origins as tools for enhancing 3D graphics in video games. These early GPUs (then called 3D accelerators) such as the 3dfx Voodoo2 released in 1998, laid the foundation for what would become a transformative force in computing technology. Early Beginnings and Gaming Acceleration In the late 1990s, the gaming industry was on the cusp of a revolution. The demand for more realistic and immersive
