Abstract: Techniques for mitigating loss of vaporized working fluid in a two-phase immersion cooling system may be implemented using one or more supplemental condensers that facilitate condensation of vaporized working fluid when the immersion tank is open, and one or more vapor collection points that are in fluid communication with at least one supplemental condenser. One or more fluid displacement devices may be configured to create suction pressure at the one or more vapor collection points. One or more vents may be positioned in the door. The one or more vents may be configured to permit movement of air from outside the immersion tank into an interior portion of the immersion tank without permitting loss of vaporized working fluid. A directional blowing device may be configured to blow a gaseous substance against a computing device in a downward direction as the computing device is being pulled upward out of the immersion tank.

Abstract: This description relates to removing CO2 from the air. One example includes a duct extending from an external environment to an internal environment and a fan configured to move air through the duct. The example also includes first and second CO2 removal assemblies configured to alternatively transition between CO2 adsorption mode and CO2 desorption mode so that one of either the first and second CO2 removal assemblies is in CO2 adsorption mode and receiving at least some of the air moving through the duct while the other of the first and second CO2 removal assemblies is not receiving air moving through the duct while CO2 is removed in desorption mode.

Abstract: A thermal management system includes a boiler tank and at least one heat-generating component positioned in the boiler tank.

The condenser is positioned between vapor return line and the liquid return line in the fluid communication.

Abstract: The disclosed technology is generally directed to vapor-air transition detection for two-phase liquid immersion cooling. In one example of the technology, a first device is cooled via two-phase liquid immersion cooling, such that the first device is submerged in a dielectric liquid in a system, and such that a boiling temperature of the dielectric liquid is a temperature that is suitable for keeping the first device cool. A portion of a first strip that is disposed in the system above the dielectric liquid is cooled. The first strip is composed of a thermo-conductive material. While the portion of the first strip is being cooled, via the first strip, a location of a vapor-air boundary in the system is determined based on a detected temperature along a length of the first strip.

Abstract: An immersion cooling system includes an immersion tank that is configured to retain dielectric working fluid and to hold a plurality of computing devices submerged in the dielectric working fluid. The immersion cooling system also includes a condenser that is configured to cause condensation of vaporized working fluid. The immersion cooling system also includes a subcooling heat exchanger that is in fluid communication with a coolant source. The coolant source provides coolant having a coolant temperature that is lower than a boiling point of the dielectric working fluid. The subcooling heat exchanger is positioned so that heat transfer can occur between the dielectric working fluid and the subcooling heat exchanger. The immersion cooling system also includes a control system that controls how much of the coolant flows into the subcooling heat exchanger based at least in part on a temperature of the dielectric working fluid.

Abstract: Techniques of deploying fuel cells in a facility are described herein. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying a location of the receptacle at the facility that the fuel cell is connected upon detecting the fuel connector of the second side of the carrier being coupled to a fuel port at a receptacle at the facility. The method can then include generating and storing, in a database, a fuel cell record indicating that the fuel cell is physically connected to the receptacle at the identified location in the facility and instructing a control device in the facility corresponding to the identified location to provide fuel to the fuel cell via the fuel port, the fuel connector, the connection between the first side and the second side of the carrier, and the fuel inlet of the fuel cell.

Abstract: The discussion relates to cooling computing devices and specifically to managing two-phase cooling. One example can include a two-phase liquid immersion tank containing heat generating components and a liquid phase of a coolant having a boiling point within an operating temperature range of the heat generating components. The example can also include a stratification chamber fluidly coupled to the liquid immersion tank and configured to at least partially separate a gas phase of the coolant from other gases. The example can further include a condenser chamber fluidly coupled to the stratification chamber and configured to receive the gas phase of the coolant and cause the gas phase of the coolant to phase change back into the liquid phase of the coolant.

Abstract: A motherboard assembly comprises a motherboard, a first computing component attached to the motherboard, and a coolant container attached to the motherboard. An air-cooled heat sink is attached to the coolant container. The coolant container, the heat sink, and the motherboard form a hermetically sealed enclosure that encompasses the first computing component and that is configured to retain dielectric working fluid covering the first computing component. The heat sink is positioned to condense vapors formed from boiling of the dielectric working fluid and to cause condensed dielectric working fluid to return to a pool of the dielectric working fluid that comprises the first computing component. The motherboard assembly additionally comprises a second computing component attached to the motherboard and positioned outside of the hermetically sealed enclosure.

Abstract: Cryogenic removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, or CryoDAC (Cryogenic Direct Air Capture), uses extremely low temperatures to convert atmospheric CO2 into a frozen solid while other components of air such as oxygen and nitrogen remain as gases. Air from the atmosphere is passed through a recuperative heat exchanger to cool the air to a temperature slightly above the deposition point of CO2. The cooled air is then passed over a deposition surface chilled to a temperature below the deposition point of CO2. Carbon dioxide in the air transitions from gas to solid form upon contact with the deposition surface. The frozen CO2 is collected and stored. The cold air with CO2 removed is passed back through the recuperative heat exchanger to cool incoming air and is then returned to the atmosphere. The deposition surface may be cooled by a cryogenic refrigerator.
