Density → cooling regime

Map rack power density to the cooling technology it forces — air, rear-door heat exchanger, or direct-to-chip liquid — with floor-space and airflow implications.

Density → cooling regime

Direct-to-chip liquid (DLC)

Cold plates on the accelerators — the mainstream AI-rack regime (NVL72 ≈ 120+ kW). Bands are approximate (air ≲30 kW · rear-door ≲50 · direct-to-chip ≲130 · immersion beyond) → Ch 5.4.
