Liquid cooling becomes essential for AI data centers

Rising power density of AI chips is driving data centers to adopt liquid cooling technology, with industry projections indicating a transition from air cooling to liquid cooling as AI chips approach 4,000 watts by 2029. This shift is essential for handling the concentrated heat output, with liquid cooling market projected to reach $7 billion by 2029 and two-phase direct liquid cooling gaining traction for future high-power hardware.
