Abstract: In the paper we analyze problems of design promising reconfigurable computer systems with liquid cooling for Xilinx Virtex UltraScale field programmable gate arrays. The paper gives a detailed account of the architecture, circuit layout and comparative technical characteristics of the next-generation reconfigurable computer systems (RCS) based on Xilinx Virtex UltraScale FPGAs with liquid cooling. The paper contains results of design, prototyping and experimental testing of the principal technical solutions of the designed power-efficient nextgeneration computational module, which is intended for creation of highperformance computer systems with liquid cooling and with the performance of 1PFlops in a standard 47U computer rack with power consumption of 150 kWatt.
The designed solutions have a power reserve for produced and designed FPGA families, they are resistant to leaks and their consequences, and are compatible with traditional water cooling systems based on industrial chillers. (In Russian).

Key words and phrases: reconfigurable computer systems, FPGA, liquid cooling, computational module, high-performance computer systems, real and specific performance, power efficiency.
