GRC Awarded Spot on ‘Top 25 Data Center Tech Companies’ List by CIO Applications Magazine

CIO Applications magazine has named Green Revolution Cooling as one of the Top 25
Data Center Companies – 2017 by CIO Applications Magazine.

AUSTIN, TX – November 23, 2017 – Green Revolution Cooling (GRC) was recently awarded a spot on CIO Application’s annual “Top 25 DataCenter Tech Companies” list. The companies chosen to be included have proven capable of providing data center solutions that help clients build a competitive advantage and transform their businesses. CIO Applications interviewed GRC CEO, Peter Poulin, for an article accompanying the list. Below is an excerpt from the article in the November edition of CIO Applications:

Increasingly powerful applications are putting new demands on data centers (the Cloud, IoT, Cryptocurrency mining, AI, ML, and VR to name a few), high-performance servers are consuming more power and more cooling capacity. Conventional cooling systems are having difficulty keeping up. Modifications to these systems have increased complexity, increased cost, extended the time to install, and made maintenance and operations more costly. These market dynamics run counter to organizational efforts to reduce the cost of IT. By radically simplifying how servers in a data center are cooled, Green Revolution Cooling (GRC) is providing IT organizations with an alternative that materially reduces data center build and operation costs, reduces the time required to expand capacity, and makes ongoing system maintenance easy.

For the last eight years, GRC has been implementing this new wave of innovation in data centers across the world. Immersion cooling is revolutionizing the way data centers are designed, constructed, and Press Release operated. “As a result, GRC enables IT firms to stay focused on IT, without worrying about the required infrastructure that supports it,” says Peter Poulin, the company’s CEO.

The key behind GRC’s flagship product—the CarnotJet System’s real efficiency is the liquid, called Electrosafe – a product that has 1,200 times the heat capacity of air. Not only is this an extremely efficient means of cooling servers, by immersing the computers in this non-conductive dielectric fluid enables the data center to eliminate server fans that consume 10-20 percent of the power. “The power reduction in removing the fans exceeds by a multiple, the power required for our cooling system,” says Poulin. To minimize the complexity, GRC has only three moving parts in the infrastructure, which do not require chillers, airflow engineering to identify and mitigate hotspots, or humidity controls.

The full article is available on the CIO Applications website and in the November 2017 issue of CIO Applications Magazine.

Liquid Immersion Cooling from Green Revolution Cooling helps Tokyo Institute of Technology Achieve Top Honors at Green500 Three Years in a Row

The latest Green500 list of most efficient supercomputers in the world was announced during the SC15 conference in Austin, Texas. For the third consecutive year, the Green Revolution Cooling-powered Tsubame-KFC supercomputer at Tokyo Institute of Technology has achieved top honors, this year ranking as the most efficient commercially available setup, and second overall.

AUSTIN, TX – December 2, 2015 – The results for the latest edition of the Green500 list of the most efficient supercomputers were announced during the SC15 (Supercomputing 2015) conference held in Green Revolution Cooling’s (GRC), hometown of Austin, Texas, last week. Tokyo Institute of Technology’s Tsubame-KFC super computer, running in Green Revolution Cooling’s oil immersion cooling system came out ahead of a number of past winners as the most efficient commercially available solution, and the second most efficient supercomputer overall. This is the third year in a row in which the system has received top honors on the list, previously being ranked #1 in November 2013, and June 2014.

“This is truly a great win for us, as one of our systems has steadily remained among the most efficient supercomputers for three years in a row. This is unheard of in the highly competitive and fast-changing world of HPC. Tokyo Institute of Technology is a banner customer and we will continue to work with them to break more records,” said Christiaan Best, CEO and Founder of Green Revolution Cooling. Both in November of 2013 and June 2014, the Tsubame-KFC (Kepler Fluid Cooling) system achieved the No.1 ranking on the Green500, also becoming the first supercomputer to break the 4 PFLOPs/W mark, ahead of its nearest competitor by over 20%. In this year’s edition, both of the top systems were immersion cooled, truly
exemplifying the power and efficiency of this method of cooling. While the Tsubame was cooled by Green Revolution Cooling’s mineral oil based ElectroSafe coolant, the RIKEN system was cooled with a 3M Fluorinert fluid in a custom cooling solution.

A recent white paper by Toshio Endo, Akira Nukada, and Satoshi Matsuoka of TI Tech, describes why the Tokyo Institute of Technology chose the GRC solution for the Tsubame-KFC and how the technology played a crucial part in helping TI Tech achieve record breaking efficiency:

“Ahead of overview of TSUBAME-KFC’s cooling technology with warm liquid (oil) submersion, we discuss the cooling methodologies; While submersion cooling has been deployed in the past in machines such as the Cray-2, the Florinate coolant utilized was extremely expensive, and moreover evaporated at low temperature of 56 degrees Celsius, and in fact the vapor was collected to be re-condensed, requiring airtight packaging.”

The complete white paper can be accessed on Green Revolution Cooling’s website at grcooling.com/learning-center/tsubame-kfc-immersion-cooled-greenest-supercomputer/.
