Abstract

A computer-implemented method controls liquid cooling of a direct injection liquid-cooled (DL) rack information handling system (RIHS). The method includes receiving, at a liquid cooling control subsystem, an incoming cooling liquid supply flow rate corresponding to an incoming cooling liquid supply being supplied to the DL RIHS. A maximum flow rate cap is calculated for each of the LC nodes. The maximum flow rate cap is transmitted to a controller for each of the LC nodes. The controller triggers each of the LC nodes to adjust the associated flow rate for that LC node to correspond to the received maximum flow rate cap for that node.
