Oh, no ... they are back ...

Friday, November 9. 2007

They are back ... the watercooled IBM boxes. By the way: But energy efficent and water cooling doesn´t match ... when you have so much heat in your server you cant disipate with air, you don´t make efficient use of the power.

Mitchell noted that the company is set to unveil the IBM p575 “supercomputer” which uses the Power 6 processor. This model would be the company’s first water-cooled product. It would be showcased in the Supercomputing Conference from November 10 to 16

Es wäre an der Zeit solche System in den Heizungskreislauf zu integrieren. Heizen dank Rechenleistung. Das wäre doch mal was. Und wenn es im Winter doch mal kalt wird, einfach ein paar SETI@home Sessions nachlegen.

Also wenn ich mich da recht entsinne, hat doch die Blackbox auch Wasserkühlungen, oder?
Aber mal ganz ehrlich, eine Wasserkühlung in einem RZ ist eigentlich ganz praktisch. Du kannst mit Wasser relativ einfach die Räume heizen, mit Wärmetauschern Warmwasser für Tee+Kaffee erzeugen usw... Sowas mit Luft zu schaffen, ist schwierig.

Jedes Rechenzentrum ist letztlich wassergekuehlt. Bei der Blackbox sind zwischen den Racks waermetauscher, die mit wasser versorgt werden. Die Frage ist, ob Wasser in einen Rechner gehoert.

PS: Wärme Rückgewinnung geht auch mit herkoemmlicher Luftkühlung, du holst die Wärme nur an einer anderen Stelle raus ... die von dir angemerkten Pukte sind kein Grund für Wasserkühlung ...
