Abstract
A data center liquid cooling coolant distribution system design for multiple liquid cooled racks which are arranged in multiple rows. These rows of electronic racks are positioned spaced apart from each other to form an aisle. The data center system further includes a CDU to provide cooling liquid to the electronic racks to remove heat generated from the IT components of the electronic racks. The CDU includes a set of liquid supply and return lines coupled to room manifolds arranged within the aisle. The room manifolds are coupled to rack manifolds of each electronic rack. The rack manifolds of an electronic rack are adapted to receive a cooling liquid from the CDU via the room manifolds and to exchange the heat generated from the IT components of the electronic rack.
