As AI and high-density compute requirements push racks well beyond traditional power envelopes, pumped two-phase cooling is moving from lab concept to real deployments. As these systems transition into production environments, attention is shifting toward the practical details that determine long-term performance and reliability. This episode explores how tubing and hose assemblies, responsible for carrying refrigerant between manifolds and cold plates, play a critical role in charge stability, flow distribution, uptime, and serviceability, without requiring a complete rethink of rack architecture. Join this episode to discuss:

  • How two-phase cooling changes rack layouts and fluid conveyance design considerations
  • How tubing and connection sizing, including internal diameter and length, impact flow stability and performance
  • Why low-permeation tubing is essential for maintaining long-term refrigerant charge stability
  • Best practices for tubing design, specification, and integration, including routing, bend radius, and avoiding kinks or traps
