How do you select the right cooling equipment for miners?

Miners need to perform high - density operations to obtain virtual currency. Therefore, the hash board will generate a lot of heat during the operation of the miners. Suppose the heat cannot be discharged in time. In that case, the miners may run in a high temperature environment, which may cause the miners to shut down for protection and short-circuit the internal circuit or even burn out essential components. As the difficulty of obtaining virtual currency continues to increase, the hash rate required by miners continues to increase, and the heat generation also continues to increase.

So how do you prevent miners from overheating? What methods can we take?

·Oil cooling

·Liquid cooling

·Immersion cooling

1. Oil cooling

Oil cooling generally refers to using petrochemical products such as lubricating oil and pressure oil to cool the miner. Its cooling operation is similar to that of water cooling. It is all to let the lubricating oil continuously flow and cool between the middle plate of the miner and the cooling net connected by the external pipe. The advantage of oil cooling is that it can cool down, reduce noise, and reduce the failure rate of the miner. In addition, it can save electricity and increase the hash rate of the miner.

The new oil cooled miner box is an oil cooled box suitable for all types of miners, with a size of 610*610mm and a maximum oil level of 360mm. A single oil cooled chassis can accommodate 9 single cylinder models, such as Whatsminer M31S, Antminer S9, etc.; or 6 dual cylinder models, such as Antminer S19 series, 17 series, etc.

2. Liquid cooling

Liquid cooling replaces air with a liquid, such as water, fluorinated liquid, or a special non-conductive oil, to remove the miner's heat during operation. The working method is that the miners do not directly contact the liquid but first transmit the heat to the copper refrigeration plate containing the liquid and then take it out of the equipment through the liquid circulation. However, since the cold plate can only cover part of the heating element, heat from other components still requires a fan to carry the heat out.

The miner integrated liquid cooler is favored because, compared with the air cooling method, the liquid cooling system has a higher density, more energy saving, and better anti-noise effect.

3. Immersion cooling

By immersing the miner directly in a customized liquid-cooled oil, which absorbs the miner's heat, the heated cooling liquid is then cooled down by the cooling system and circulated back to the liquid cooling tank. The cooling liquid circulates in the liquid cooling tank, which enables the miners to operate at a constant temperature, significantly improving the miners' heat dissipation efficiency, and greatly optimizing the energy efficiency ratio of the miners without the need for fans.

The ASIC immersion cooling kit adopts oil cooling + water cooling multiple cooling methods and is suitable for Antminer S9, S17, S19, and other models. A single chassis can accommodate 9 Antminer S9, or 6 Antminer S17 / S19 and other models, or 3 GPU miners. The size of a single cooling cabinet is 90*73.5*55cm, which is easy to use, has little radiation to the human body, stably controls the operating temperature of the miners, prolongs the life of the miners, reduces the failure rate of the miners, and can also run over frequency.
