Cooling High-Power Density Data-Center Hardware: Thermal Design With SimScale
September 29, 2021
Submer Technologies’ proprietary SmartPod cooling solutions feature a liquid bath for cooling IT hardware. This novel approach capitalizes on the advantages that a liquid phase material has over gas-phase materials, such as air, for removing excess heat. Overall, this system can effectively cool server racks reducing cooling energy costs by up to 95% when compared to traditional air cooling.
To ensure the reliable operation of the components within the SmartPod, temperatures need to be consistently low. Submer leveraged high-fidelity engineering simulation in the cloud to develop the most efficient cooling solution.
In this webinar, our guest speaker from Submer shows how they used powerful CFD simulations with SimScale to model multiple design scenarios to de-risk overheating in critical components.
Founded in 2015, the company provides best-in-class solutions for HPC, hyper-scale, data centers, Edge, AI, DL, and blockchain applications. Together, Submer allows data centers around the world to harness the power of immersion cooling to reduce consumption, costs, and latency while simultaneously increasing deployment speed and computer density per sqm. Submer is committed to providing the industry with state-of-the-art technological solutions that are innovative and smart. Headquartered in Barcelona, with offices in Virginia and Palo Alto, California, Submer consists of an international team of engineering, technological and business experts. Learn more here.

“The SimScale platform has allowed us to develop and test scenarios including ventilation flow paths and understanding the dynamics between building fabric, airtightness, window natural ventilation design, and CO2 concentrations in various utilisation scenarios. The platform has given us quality, visually digestible output to inform decision-making and to compare results against our monitored data from our extensive post-occupancy studies. Working with SimScale has allowed us to study our learning spaces in a way we never have before. It has helped inform us on which design strategies may provide the biggest impact on performance. The visual outputs have real value, not just in terms of informing our decision-making, but potentially in communicating how classrooms can work and feel to clients and stakeholders.”
“When I started with SimScale, I knew from my previous experience how simulations are structured and work, but I had forgotten some details over the years. The great tutorials, documentation, and personal conversations with support have brought me up to date within 2 months of using SimScale. I am now well versed and use SimScale even with smaller problems to confirm my pre-calculations and to quickly compare design studies.”
SimScale is the world’s first production-ready SaaS application for simulation. By providing instant access to (CFD) and (FEA) to over 200,000 users, SimScale has moved high-fidelity physics simulation technology from a complex and cost-prohibitive desktop application to a user-friendly cloud application accessible via a subscription-based pricing model.
