Episode notes

AI is overheating data centers, and air cooling just can’t keep up. In this eye-opening conversation, Cosimo Pecchioli and Darren Burgess from BP’s Castrol Immersion Division pull back the curtain on the future of thermal management - and why liquid cooling is no longer optional. From AI workloads to hyperscalers, learn how industry giants are quietly deploying immersion cooling at scale, what it really takes to design a liquid-cooled system, and why ignoring this shift could lead to catastrophic failures. Key insights include: - Why air cooling is dead for AI and how hyperscalers are adopting liquid cooling - The real cost savings and efficiency gains of immersion technology - Challenges of scaling liquid cooling: fluid chemistry, maintenance, and hidden risks - How BP Castrol is innovating with additives to handle the next generation of AI chips - Why the industry must collaborate - and what happens when it doesn’t If your data center isn’t liquid-cooled, you’re already behind.
