The trick is bringing in cool air and exhausting hot air out of the farm.

Still confused? Take a good look at your Asic miner again, do you see how they worked the cooler?

Now turn your mining farm into that Asic miner too.

It depends on your location and how the breeze passes through in your home, but I know guys who do this for a living, they use containers to build the farms, and they work a big fan at the front and this fan brings in cool air and the fan at the back exhaust the heat generated by the Asic miners, it worked pretty well.

Depending on how your place is built, a more bigger open space always needs less cooling, because they always have more open spaces.

Like what type of methods u use to cool your farm ?
planning to start a farm  want to know what you guys use to cool the room

Atm typically 3 methods are used depending on situation... Immersion/liquid cooling, dry cooling, and evaporative cooling... The best simple and economic solution is still dry cooling through fan placements...simple but efficient and low-cost maintenance... However, if your launching your farm in warm zone then you better go after evaporative cooling. But it needs access to cheap water... If you would like to recover the waste heat of your farm beside its cooling then use immersion cooling. Btw the maintenance cost and technical complexity in immersion cooling is higher
I have not actually seen evaporative cooling in miners. I don’t understand how to deal with the problem of additional humidity later. And I can’t imagine how this system can be used in small containers. The cooling system should be as simple and cheap as possible to save money on maintenance.

It's very commonly used in dry climates around the world espeially in Middle East...It's as easy as peasy!...very well fit inot a container...you just need cellulose cooling pads in one side of the container with water hose system inside it...It's quite easy to implement...But it's not gonna work in humid climates!

The "trick" is to move the hot air, not cool it.

Cooling the farm is considered one of the basics of design, and depending on the design, the dimensions of the farm, the target temperature, and the cooling method, you will not get an answer to such a question. Even if mining farms publish their designs, they will be specific and not general.

I don’t understand how to deal with the problem of additional humidity later. And I can’t imagine how this system can be used in small containers. The cooling system should be as simple and cheap as possible to save money on maintenance.

Design varies depending on the target, but it is possible to reduce the temperature to more than 15 °C with reasonable humidity levels.

I have not actually seen evaporative cooling in miners.

It is very common to use evap cooling in mining farms, U.S miners don't post many images/info regarding their farms but the Chinese did, and the vast majority of them used evap cooling, it is very efficient but requires a lot of water and a lot more air movement, with the right installation humidity can still be kept at a safe level.

Ventilation will remain the most standard and cheapest method, but for this you need to prepare the room and properly design the equipment so that hot and cold air flows do not mix. Such technical problems are solved on site for mining. You can make the cheapest design, but you need to consider that you also need to have security, otherwise your equipment may be stolen.

Your first priority is air movement. The cheapest way to do that is with large (20-inch or larger) box fans.

With sufficient air movement you may be able to keep your rig temps below ambient in the proper climate.

I don't have a mining firm. But, I would love to share something with you. You should not use what others are using. Because their weather could be different than yours. So, if you are planning to set up a large mining farm, you should choose a place where the temperature is low compared to other places. I heard that some miners set up their mining farm in a place where weather is low temperature and they don't have to spend extra money to cool down their mining farm.

You should do some research before you start working on it. You may follow what BitMaxz shared already. But then again, always pick the right place for your mining shed. It really matters.

When it comes to equipment, the best choice for a mining farm would be ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) miners, as they offer high hash rates and energy efficiency compared to traditional GPU miners. Some popular ASIC miner brands include Bitmain, Canaan, and MicroBT. It's important to research and compare different models to find the best fit for your mining operation in terms of hash rate, power consumption, and cost.

You are not helping yourself by posting AI garbage buddy. We all can do this and ask ChatGPT questions to get such a reply. Avoid doing this shit. This is frowned upon in this forum.

If you don't want to spend on AC to cool down your farm then you should plan how you will bring hot air out from your farm while sucking cool air outside.
The best solution to cool your farm is to have proper ventilation check the sample diagram below from hashrate index for your future reference.
