Data center cooling solutions refer to a series of
technical means and equipment adopted to ensure the normal operation of
internal equipment in data centers and prevent performance degradation or
damage caused by overheating. These solutions aim to effectively control the
temperature, humidity, and airflow in the data center, providing a suitable
operating environment for servers, storage devices, and other critical equipment.
Introduction to Subdivision Types
|
Air-based Cooling
|
-
Natural cooling: Utilizing external environmental
temperature to reduce the temperature inside the data center through natural
convection or radiation. This method is suitable for areas with low external
temperatures and moderate humidity.
-
Forced air cooling: By using fans, air
conditioning, and other equipment to forcibly circulate air, heat is taken
away from the interior of the data center. This method has a lower cost but
higher energy consumption and may have limited effectiveness in high-density
data centers.
|
|
Air-based Cooling
|
-
Direct liquid cooling: Circulate the coolant
directly into the server and reduce the temperature through heat exchange
between the liquid and server components. This method has high heat
dissipation efficiency, but high equipment and maintenance costs.
-
Indirect liquid cooling: The coolant circulates
externally and exchanges heat with the air inside the data center through a
heat exchanger, thereby reducing the air temperature. This method has a lower
cost compared to direct liquid cooling, but slightly lower heat dissipation
efficiency.

In 2023, the market share of air-based cooling and liquid-based cooling
segments was 43.51% and 56.49%, respectively.
