Abstract: A fluid immersion cooling system includes a fluid tank that contains a layer of a dual-phase coolant fluid and one or more layers of single-phase coolant fluids. The dual-phase and single-phase coolant fluids are immiscible, with the dual-phase coolant fluid having a lower boiling point and higher density than a single-phase coolant fluid. A substrate of an electronic system is submerged in the tank such that high heat-generating components are immersed at least in the layer of the dual-phase coolant fluid. Heat from the components is dissipated to the dual-phase coolant fluid to generate vapor bubbles of the dual-phase coolant fluid. The vapor bubbles rise to a layer of a single-phase coolant fluid that is above the layer of the dual-phase coolant fluid. The vapor bubbles condense to droplets of the dual-phase coolant fluid. The droplets fall down into the layer of the dual-phase coolant fluid.

Abstract: A fluid immersion cooling system has a fluid tank containing a hydrocarbon dielectric fluid as a coolant fluid. One or more components of an electronic system is immersed in the coolant fluid. A gas cylinder contains a non-flammable, compressed filling gas. The temperature of the coolant fluid is monitored during operation of the electronic system. The filling gas is released from the gas cylinder and into the fluid tank when the temperature of the coolant fluid rises to a trigger temperature that is set based on the flash point of the coolant fluid. The filling gas covers a surface of the coolant fluid to block oxygen from interacting with vapors of the coolant fluid to prevent combustion.
