Any update to this? Where can you get these water blocks and how much?
I'm very sorry to respond to you so long, has been busy recently, put this post to forget Sad
Reply to everyone today, if you have any goode ideas pls tell me, i will try to do it.

In Russia they are actually taking advantage of the heat produced by miners, and they have built water cooled Bitfury-based miner (Sunrise series).
So those miners are not only mining btc, but also working as 'water boilers'.
Ja. As I've brought up before, I'd think miners supplying heat for thermal pool spa's would be a great way to go. Beats using only gas or electric as direct heat!

It would be a really nice project to grab some old Ant C1's, then upgrade them with some Hotmine (Bitfury 16nm) boards and hook them up to a bath tub via a heat exchanger.  Cheesy

Few of those and you could even build a spa resort for people interested in Bitcoin.

If anybody is interested, you are free to use this as a business idea.  Grin
You are really a funny guy Smiley

I dont think it is smart either. One error and water leaks, damaging equipment and is a safety hazard. Dont forget, these things are run 24/7. I juz dont find it smart. The miners are alaays placed closely together. It could be a catastrophe if water leaks everywhere.

However, I am curious, at wat temperatures do they run at?
Your question is similar with a friends above, roll up to have a look.

Water cooling is an excellent way to harvest the heat. You guys are laughing at this meanwhile it's -30 here tonight and I could heat my house with maybe 10-12 s9s. Then just dump the excess heat outside with a PID controlled fan/rad.

The cost you say? Tell that to people around here who have spent $40,000 on geothermal.

But there's no real use in an industrial setting unless you have an actual need for the heat.
You are right, I live in the north, the winter is very cold Sad

That looks like an insane amount of work and money that you will never get back. Its interesting as a proof of concept but completely useless in the real world.
We have three ideas:
1.Reduce machine noise and temperature
2.improve the life of mining machine
3.Use the heat transferred to do something else

Nice Project.  Could you help us out a bit?

1) What is the model of water pump you're using?

2) Looks like custom water block solution.  Is it replicable for us?  How?  Can we buy them?

3) What is the operating temperature you're achieving?  Can you give us a screenshot?

4) Would love to know how loud the entire rig is.  Surely the water pump makes noise, and the fans on the radiator make noise as well?

Looks like a great project, but I'd like to see the real results for "Frozen & Quiet."  If it's true, I'd be the first one to buy 8 miners worth!  It's either that, or I'm dunking them in mineral oil with a radiator.  I can't seem to find anyone anywhere who's successfully cooled 8+ Antminer S9's with mineral oil, water cooling, or anything else portable.

I've got free utilities in my apartment and want to find the best way to get this done in a small footprint that's rather contained!

1 . I use a small centrifugal pump, the model is SC-750, syscooling products
2 . You can contact syscooling at https://syscooling.en.alibaba.com/
3 . screenshot here https://s1.ax1x.com/2018/01/26/pq0jEQ.png
4 . SC-750 pumps and low-speed fans on the radiator are all very quiet and I think they are negligible; the miner fans speed dropped to 700 and 1300 RPM, the noise goes down too.

Did you read the guide and see all the pictures?
This is done with a S9.


@hjelc
Very cool project, thanks for sharing!  Smiley
Are you staff member in the Syscooling company?
Could you share the details where to buy parts needed to setup this kit?
Thanks for your attention, you can contact syscooling at https://syscooling.en.alibaba.com/

Would it leak in the long run?
7 * 24 run for a month, did not found leaks yet, in fact security issues are easy to solve, you can choose non-conductive liquid

This is a great idea, how long did it take you?
2 hours, Those photos were took while installation, so they were posted slowly.

That was mean't as a joke.

And you also might want to learn what is a heat exchanger.

The system would not be connected to a bath tub directly, but via a heat exchanger.

And I still stand at my point that water cooling is safe when you know what you are doing.



Oh I see lol.  Hmmm I go look it up.

And if a mistake occurs, the customer gets electrocuted lol?? Yes, it is unlikely to occur but lapses do occur. It will be ok to do in a home setting I guess but laws in a commercial setting would prevent water being too close to electricity I would think. I suspect it wont pass safety standards in my country though. Juz my 2 cents thoughts anyways, not tryin to be disagreeable Smiley
