Dry coolers

Air-cooled coils that reject heat from water or glycol loops without routine evaporation.

Role in the thermal chain

Reject facility-loop heat to ambient air.

Dry coolers can pair effectively with warm-water liquid cooling. Engineers must model peak ambient temperature, approach, fan energy, sound, footprint, and freeze protection.

What does dry coolers do in a data center?

Reject facility-loop heat to ambient air. Dry coolers can pair effectively with warm-water liquid cooling. Engineers must model peak ambient temperature, approach, fan energy, sound, footprint, and freeze protection.

Which cooling architectures use dry coolers?

Dry coolers is commonly connected to Dry Cooling, Direct To Chip, Heat Reuse.

What should buyers ask when comparing dry coolers?

What capacity remains at the site's design dry-bulb temperature? Is adiabatic trim required and how much water would it consume? How are fan redundancy, sound, and coil cleaning handled?
