Abstract
A method of cooling a computer server that includes a plurality of server modules, and is positioned in an enclosed room, includes transferring heat generated by a server module of the plurality of server modules to a hot plate of a liquid cooling system. The liquid cooling system may be positioned within the server module, and the hot plate may have a surface exposed to the enclosed room. The method may also include positioning a cold plate of a room-level cooling system in thermal contact with the hot plate. The method may also include directing a cooling medium through the room-level cooling system to transfer heat from the hot plate to a cooling unit positioned outside the room.
