Patent number: 10701832Abstract: Techniques that facilitate two-phase liquid cooling electronics are provided. In one example, a server system comprises a two-phase cooling system and an air moving system. The two-phase cooling system reduces a first temperature of a first electronic component in the server system using a pump that circulates a coolant refrigerant through a two-phase refrigerant loop associated with the first electronic component, where first electronic component satisfies a first defined criterion. The air moving system reduces a second temperature of a second electronic component in the server system using one or more fans associated with the second electronic component, where the second electronic component satisfies a second defined criterion.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2019Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Timothy Joseph Chainer, Pritish Ranjan Parida, Mark Delorman Schultz
