Title: Mining farm, 30C outside temperature without AC relying on high airflow only? Post by: botarnold on June 01, 2017, 03:57:43 AM I'm working to set up a mining farm with 7 rigs to start with. Planning on a site which has window access. I'm wondering if the farm can rely on airflow from installing fans on the window 24/7 365 days a year all season, as the outside temperature can get up to 33C at times, but very rare. I want to know if this is possible, of course I will have an AC as back up. But is this avhievable to rely on pure airflow.

If you're in a dry area, might want to consider an evaporative cooler. Title: Re: Mining farm, 30C outside temperature without AC relying on high airflow only?

I run 9 rigs in Rosewill in a 42U rack and 2 open air rigs in garage where temp is 100F+ or 33C+ with no issues. I have 2 exhaust fans with 3200 CFM total and 4 Windeevents to get rid of hot air.

If you're in a dry area, might want to consider an evaporative cooler. It is a very humid city. there will be AC installed, but I want to leave it off except for rainy days. Any solutions to cool that saves electricity? Title: Re: Mining farm, 30C outside temperature without AC relying on high airflow only?

I dont have space for big exhaust fans, any recommendations for a fan that fits within a window? I will be replacing the glass pane with exhaust fans.

Bound to fail, car radiator fans are not rated for 100% duty cycle. Title: Re: Mining farm, 30C outside temperature without AC relying on high airflow only? Post by: VyprBTC on June 01, 2017, 05:14:07 PM if you use 1 of these inline fans or fans like Marijuana growers use, you'll be fine

That's pretty good. Title: Re: Mining farm, 30C outside temperature without AC relying on high airflow only? Post by: cashen on June 01, 2017, 07:12:13 PM Check out this company. Very efficient.
