Title: summer heat management
Post by: deskless on March 23, 2021, 04:01:02 PM
Need to plan for summer heat. I have 2 rigs on a 10X15 room with 2 windows. As the room is on a high-rise the airflow is good when I open the door. What could be done to keep good airflow when the door is closed?

If you add some cooling fans it won't work I guess since the heats need to leave the room, there is nothing you can do that keep the door open always or get a air conditioner if you are running on free electricity

You need a hole above.

Get creative. Experiment and observe so you can make tweaks until you are satisfied.

2 rigs? If you did it well maybe you can x5 those rigs

I lived some time with 3 rigs in the room 4x3 meters. It was hard enough but possible. Use floor fans. It will be enough for rigs. If you have to live in this room - noise can become a problem.

A fan in each window in a push pull configuration.

No one lives in that room. I could use floor fans but how to get the hot air out. It has only one window.

Sorry I would correct. They are two vertical slider windows but they are together. S

You can still do push-pull, it's just more difficult and less effective. Ducting helps.

put exhaust fan on roof, should be easy for installing, need some ventilation, what exactly ambient room temperature? 10x15 meter/foot? assuming 3.3x5m is quite large enough for 2rigs closed door on ambient temp at 30c

It`s enough. Just put your rigs down - about a 0.5 m over the floor. In such a way rigs will get cold air from below, and fan will remove the hot air from the rigs. The best way is to make a draft, but for the time without draft this decision is enough.
