How do I implement heat reuse in my immersion-cooled datacenter?

Virtually all the heat generated by the IT is transferred into a single body of immersion fluid, which will be circulating through one of the sides of a liquid-liquid heat exchanger. The heat is transferred to a closed water loop circulating on the other side of the heat exchanger. This hot water can be used straight away for heat reuse applications if its temperature is high enough – depending on IT hardware selected and operating conditions – or it can go through a Heat Recovery Unit (HRU), which is a equipment designed to guarantee optimal energy recovery by adjusting the water temperature.

Depending on the availability requirements of your datacenter and the SLAs with the heat offtaker, a standard heat rejection system may be needed.
