Abstract: A container is for housing a first data center and connecting to a heat exchanger. The container has an outer shell defining an inside and outside of the container. The outer shell has a first container inlet port for receiving a flowable heat transfer fluid from a heat exchanger and a first container outlet port for delivering the flowable heat transfer fluid to the heat exchanger. A means is for holding a first data center at a first location inside the container. A closed fluid flow channel fluidly connects the first container inlet port with the first container outlet port. At least a portion of the closed fluid flow channel is adjacent the first location such that a flowable heat transfer fluid can enter the container at the first container inlet port and extract heat from the first data center before exiting the container at the first container outlet port.

Abstract: A system is for cooling at least one computing device using water. The system has a body of water defining a first waterline and a structure at least partially submerged in the body of water. An internal volume of water defines a second waterline. At least one outlet drains water from the internal volume of water to the body of water. A container is at least partially submerged in the internal volume of water and has at least one computing device that generates heat in use. An inlet pipe has a pump to move water from the body of water to the internal volume of water. A flow path of water is provided across the container towards the at least one outlet. The second waterline is at a height above the first waterline to drive the flow path to provide cooling of the container and computing device therein.
