Industrial Air-cooled High-speed Cooling Systems
Industry Trends and Recent Developments
The industrial cooling sector is undergoing significant transformations, propelled by the escalating demand for energy-efficient solutions across various industries, including metallurgy, electronics, and automotive. Notably, the surge in high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) applications has intensified the need for advanced cooling technologies capable of managing higher thermal loads.
Strategic Acquisitions Reshaping the Industry
In October 2024, Schneider Electric acquired a 75% controlling interest in Motivair Corporation for $850 million. This acquisition enhances Schneider’s capabilities in liquid cooling solutions, particularly direct-to-chip technologies essential for modern data centers. Motivair’s expertise complements Schneider’s existing portfolio, enabling more efficient thermal management from grid to chip and from chip to chiller.
Similarly, in May 2025, Samsung Electronics announced its agreement to acquire Germany’s FläktGroup for €1.5 billion. FläktGroup is renowned for its energy-efficient HVAC solutions, including precision cooling systems vital for data centers. This acquisition signifies Samsung’s strategic move to bolster its presence in the HVAC market, addressing the growing cooling demands of AI-driven data centers.
Innovations in Cooling Technologies
Atlas Copco has introduced the TCX 4-90A range, marking its entry into the process cooling chiller market. These compact, all-in-one water chillers feature air-cooled condensers and integrated hydro modules, catering to industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and plastics. The TCX series is designed for high efficiency and reliability, incorporating microchannel condensers that require 30% less refrigerant, thus reducing environmental impact and maintenance costs.
Carrier’s AquaForce® 30XV air-cooled variable-speed screw chiller exemplifies advancements in energy-efficient cooling solutions. With Integrated Part Load Values (IPLV) exceeding 21.0 in certain models, the 30XV offers high performance and a smaller footprint, making it suitable for retrofitting older systems. The addition of a waterside economizer allows for “free cooling,” utilizing ambient temperatures to reduce energy consumption further.
Emerging Trends in Industrial Cooling
The industry is witnessing a shift towards modular and compact cooling systems, driven by the need for scalable and flexible solutions in high-density computing environments. Liquid cooling technologies are gaining traction, offering superior thermal management for HPC and AI applications. Additionally, there is an increasing emphasis on sustainability, with manufacturers focusing on reducing refrigerant usage and enhancing energy efficiency to meet global environmental goals.
These developments indicate a broader trend of integrating advanced cooling technologies to support the evolving demands of modern industries, ensuring optimal performance, energy efficiency, and environmental compliance.
