Integrated Engineering Architecture Focus
The model treats liquid cooling as one subsystem in a broader standards-driven engineering chain.
Thermal-Hydraulic Engineering Chain
The sizing model follows end-to-end heat transport: chip load capture, coolant transport, pumping duty, CDU losses, and rejection path energy. This prevents underestimating total cooling parasitics.
Chip Heat
GPU/CPU thermal load
Cold Plate
Capture ratio tuning
CDU Loop
Flow, head, pump duty
Heat Rejection
COP and climate effects
Compliance
Standards score fusion
Advanced Modeling Dimensions
Calculator outputs include:
- Thermal capture, coolant flow, and pumping power.
- CDU sizing under N, N+1, and 2N configurations.
- Composite PUE, WUE, annual energy, and OPEX.
- Cross-standard alignment score with weighted grading.
High-Fidelity Engineering Calculator
Use this model for detailed scenario comparison before final validation with licensed engineering teams.
Design Inputs
Operational mode hides lab-only coefficient tuning and keeps field-operational parameters visible.
Input Quality Guardrails
Awaiting Model Run- Run model to evaluate assumption quality and operational realism checks.
Calibration Mode (Telemetry Fit)
Not CalibratedInput measured telemetry to calibrate model coefficients. Minimum 2 measured KPI targets required.
Telemetry CSV Import
IdleAuto-map CSV columns to calibration KPIs (`pue`, `cop`, `annual_energy_gwh`, `net_opex`, `carbon`, `pump_kw`) and optional operational inputs.
Calibration idle. Provide telemetry targets and run calibration.
The model estimates thermodynamic and economic behavior using engineering assumptions for early-stage design screening. Note: "Liquid Supply/Return Temp" are coolant loop values, different from supply-air setpoint in DAHU/in-row systems.
