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 covers a surface of the coolant fluid to block oxygen from interacting with vapors of the coolant fluid to prevent combustion.
