Escalating computing capabilities and shrinking chip packages are leading to corresponding increases in server and rack power densities. Cooling the new higher-powered racks is a serious challenge to system designers and data center managers. In the past, designers tried such methods as cabinets with better airflow configurations, adding central air conditioning systems, raising floors and using cold-aisle and hot-aisle layouts. Today, engineers are turning their attention to water-cooled techniques and refrigeration technology to solve cabinet overheating problems.
