Sort of, see for example the Rittal LCP system.
I've had only a couple of instances where cooling
water was used. In
All current high-density rack systems need liquid cooling. I want to
remind that a single rack may produce 10kW of heat or more.
the case of CDC mainframes, it was used to cool the
condenser coils in
the refrigeration units (located in the mainframe). I believe that Cray
initially used the same guy that CDC used to fabricate the cooling tubing.
That is how todays rack systems work.
