Abstract
A method for cooling electronic equipment. The method including propagating air through a first electronic component of the electronic equipment into a first enclosed area, where propagating the air through the first electronic component cools the first electronic component, circulating a refrigerant in a cooling loop, where the cooling loop comprises a heat exchanger, and propagating the air out of the first enclosed area by passing through the heat exchanger into a second enclosed area, where the air is cooled by passing through the heat exchanger.
