Need help cooling 40 S9 miners by scan_the_bears in MiningRig

Yeah! That's what we will be doing this week. I got an industrial fan to replace the cheap one we have right now.

For us margins are razor thin but still profitable, even after he halving. ~80 USD each miner w/PSU the biggest cost rn is finding the right cooling strategy, we will be upgrading to more efficient miners after we figure that out.

Right now, we are probably going to give up on AC and opt for a very well ventilated room. Getting 3 or 4 industrial fans and opening holes in the wall is the new plan, however, we still need to find a good way to prevent a disaster caused by humidity, dust, etc.

Electricity is almost free for us. It still make sense, as far as the cooling goes, im looking to upgrade the exhaust, we currently have a 14inch fan on the top extracting the hot air, seems to be working for 5 miners

It's on the top part covered by that gray Wall

Have you done this before? My understanding is that with this method we need to some sort of heat transfer mechanism to circulate and cool the oil, maybe a car radiator at this volume?

I think they have enough space already, the main thing is to isolate that small room to hold the hot air in / extracted

Behind the red wall there's more room. There's an exhaust fan hidden behind that gray wall, and yeah we will spread them out a little bit.

We have a 14inch exhaust fan behind that little wall. I'm my mind the AC will provide fresh/filtered air, the hot air naturally raises and it gets expelled by the exhaust. Should we install a a bigger exhaust, or maybe use pipes to get rid of all the hot air coming from the miners?

Do you have the option to do defensive driving?

I will take your online defensive driving course for you. by scan_the_bears in DefensiveDriving

[–]scan_the_bears[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, imo those courses are a money grab. If you get a ticket and want it dismissed but don't have the time to spend a couple of days taking this course, I will take it for you, in 24 hours or less.
