Aligned Data Centers: Aligned Data Centers Launches Advanced Cooling Lab

Aligned Data Centers has opened a new Advanced Cooling Lab at its Phoenix campus to accelerate the development of high-density data center cooling technologies. The lab serves as a testing ground for Aligned's patented Delta Cube air cooling and patent-pending DeltaFlow~ liquid cooling systems, designed to handle the rising thermal loads of next-generation GPUs and AI accelerators.The facility is engineered to simulate hybrid cooling environments, enabling seamless transitions between air-cooled and liquid-cooled infrastructure within the same data hall. This flexibility supports Aligned's broader Adaptive Modular Infrastructure (AMI) framework, which allows hyperscale and enterprise customers to future-proof their data center investments as compute density continues to rise. The company has positioned the lab as a centerpiece for R&D to address the evolving needs of high-performance computing and AI workloads.With a decade-long track record in sustainable infrastructure innovation, Aligned is focused on maintaining high operational efficiency and low Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE). The new lab reflects the company's strategic commitment to R&D as it scales its infrastructure portfolio to meet the surging demands of AI training and inference environments.Location: Phoenix, ArizonaFeatures hybrid Delta Cube (air) and DeltaFlow~ (liquid) cooling systemsSupports live transitions from air- to liquid-cooling as density increasesPurpose-built to accommodate next-gen GPUs and AI/HPC acceleratorsIntegrated into Aligned's Adaptive Modular Infrastructure (AMI)Enables rapid deployment of scalable and sustainable cooling for hyperscalers"The Advanced Cooling Lab is a testament to our commitment to delivering cutting-edge data center solutions and our passion for innovation," said Michael Welch, Chief Technology Officer at Aligned Data Centers.
