散热
Thermal management and liquid/air cooling for high-density AI compute.
需求为什么传导到这里
机架功率只有几十 kW 时,风冷够用。加速器功耗上升推高机架密度,进而推高发热量,最终逼出液冷:冷板、CDU、浸没、泵、换热器。这是一个独立的热管理产业,不是数据中心设备下面的一个条目。
瓶颈在哪
把风冷机房改造成液冷是一项土建工程,不是一次升级。既有机房存量,实实在在地限制了高密度机架能放在哪里。
这是关于供应商集中度与交期的结构性观察,不是对任何标的的看法。

Descriptive positioning only. `stance` says whether a company's business is exposed to a layer, never whether to buy it. Layers with no exposure are not recommendations to add any.
