The demand for advanced computing power, particularly for AI supernodes, is driving a significant shift towards liquid cooling technologies. Major server manufacturers like Huawei, ZTE, and Inspur are upgrading their thermal management systems to liquid cooling, including both cold plate and immersion cooling methods. Industry analysts predict that 2026 will mark a substantial growth year for liquid cooling, with the global intelligent computing center market projected to reach 114.7 billion yuan, a 273% increase, and continued high growth expected in 2027. The increasing adoption and technological advancements in liquid cooling, especially immersion cooling as fluorinated liquid prices decrease, are poised for widespread engineering application and market expansion.
