AI is driving rack power and thermal densities beyond the practical limits of conventional data center infrastructure.
This session examines how high-density AI deployments are reshaping both cooling and power architectures, from direct-to-chip liquid cooling and CDU integration to emerging 800 VDC distribution.
Using practical design experience and an illustrative 50 MW comparison, it explores hydraulic topology, electrical distribution, spatial planning, resilience, PUE and heat-reuse opportunities.
Key takeaways:
- Understand how AI rack densities reshape facility infrastructure.
- Integrate liquid cooling, hydraulics, electrical and spatial design from concept stage.
- Assess the implications of emerging 800 VDC architectures for high-density AI.
- Compare the energy impact of air, direct liquid and immersion cooling.
