Yes, it's not my research - a colleagues. He has some big vats of oil. It's a sureal experience to see servers just being oil-boarded (can i say that? :) ) and coming out ok!
- dig1 8y agoCooling via oil insulation isn't something new - it is used for years inside high voltage transformers to keep temperature stable. What kind of oil are you using?
- polvs 8y agoI'd love to discuss your research. We've been working low-profile during the last years doing a lot of R&D and experimenting with different fluids and components. Mineral oil is ok for experimentation, but for long term material compatibility and fire risk I wouldn't recommend it. FWIW I co-founded https://submer.com https://submer.com where we've developed an all-embedded computing immersion cooling solution that is virtually compatible with any kind of hardware (even fiber optics) and it's orders of magnitude more efficient than traditional data center cooling technologies.
