Learn about the development of liquid cooling standards for high-density data centers in tropical climates through this 13-minute conference talk by Professor Poh Seng Lee from the National University of Singapore. Explore the critical need for advanced thermal management solutions as data centers face increasing power densities driven by AI workloads and the unique challenges posed by tropical environments. Discover how direct-to-chip and immersion cooling technologies are being adapted and standardized for deployment in hot, humid climates where traditional air cooling becomes insufficient. Examine the national effort to establish tropical-specific standards that can serve as global benchmarks for sustainable data center infrastructure. Gain insights into the intersection of mechanical engineering, energy efficiency, and policy development as they relate to next-generation cooling solutions. Understand the role of testbed facilities in validating cooling technologies and the importance of bridging academic research with industry implementation to create scalable, sustainable infrastructure solutions for the AI era.
