Lose the gravel. It will eventually clog the pump or radiator. Lose the boat. It will act as a heat sink that retains rather than dissipates. Remove the front plate from the controller to allow circulation and prevent a hot spot there. Remove the fans. They don't behave as propellers. They will hinder rather than facilitate circulation and they'll draw more power doing it than they would in air. Remove as much of the case as possible to maximize exposure to the oil and eliminate heat retention. Place the suction and return lines on opposite ends of the unit to create flow. The whole purpose of doing this is to be able to run the unit at higher frequency (which means higher hash rate) while simultaneously consuming less electricity. If done correctly, the power consumption can easily be reduced by around 25% while simultaneously producing around 40% higher hash rate.
@@hijunglegym88 it’s not really my system. I just pointed out the most obvious things that he did wrong. When I was mining (briefly) I had a setup in a medium size cooler that worked pretty good. But I got out after the last halving. Electricity is too expensive and the reward is too low. In fact, crypto is a terrible idea now. It doesn’t even make a good way to store wealth confidentially and it was never suitable for investment.
Hey brother, how come you haven't made more videos and updates on this? i hope you're doing OK man! you've helped and inspired so many of us who don't own million dollar mining farms and have access to expensive cooling systems.
the mineral oil for a rig my size would cost $800.00 I think if you can buy bulk high voltage transformer oil and really go big it could work. I think its a good idea worth investigating further.
Hi, we are manufacturing and selling immersion liquid cooling box and miners. Here's a video for your reference https: ua-cam.com/video/w029O8xXBHM/v-deo.html
Great video. However, everyone should know that mineral oil is flammable and can be used in an oil lamp. If it catches fire, then it will burn and burn. If it is near flammable material such as a cloth then the oil could feed that material similar to a wick. If you use this type of system for cooling, then please have an automatic fire suppression system capable of quenching oil fires. Remember, the electric system could also cause a spark and ignite the oil.
Greetings, excellent your video, when you did the tests, the heat extractors of the machine, being immersed in the oil, had any problems and the machine continued mining perfectly?
Greetings, excellent video, I have a question when submerging the machine in the oil, the fans continued to work properly or at some point they turned off and the machine stopped working. Thank you for your answer.
Don't stop thinking outside the box. I'm also working on a scalable solution. Essentially your challenge is the heat exchange efficiency. Keep posting updates. Good luck
Awesome ! You just beat up 3M and other companies making a "liquid" for the same purpose, but in a cheap way with the same result ! 1 Gallon of the 3M liquid is over $400 bucks, and 1 gallon of the mineral oil is less than $25 bucks at Walmart ! Great video bro !
Novec or fluorinert are much more efficient than using mineral oil. On top of that, mineral oil is nearly impossible to remove from the components once you take them out and erosion can even end up destroying some parts while 3M's solutions will protect your parts.
@@gotwebsite1 I looked up what novatec is and it seems to be a fertilizer. This information seems completely irrelevant. Unless you're talking about something else?
We have developed oil cooling technology in China. After oil cooling, the temperature can be controlled at about 30°, and the computing power can be overclocked by 15%-20%.
Come on man, we need to know how efficient this was. How hot did the fluid get? Was the radiator able to transmit enough heat out of the medium? Did you stick with it? Why not?
Leaving out details. Fluid tested until 110 degrees. Max temperature reached in +-30min at a normal room temperature. Minus +-10 room temperature reached in +30min. Two radiators (these specifically) cannot remove the heat generated. This is somewhat given because they are built for ~350 watt of heat removal give or take. A custom radiator would do. I still wanted to test this though. I did not stick with it because it was purely an experiment to get some numbers in order to properly calculate scalability requirements. There is a lot of math out there to calculate this but no practice. I hope that helps.
Joel Pagan thanks for the reply. It would be interesting to combine this with a window ac to more effectively draw the heat from the radiator. Or place a large radiator with a fan outside of the window to place the waste heat outside directly.
Stephen Owen Definitely. It really depends on your goal. One miner and trying to get rid of noise? Then just build a simple sound box with mufflers and loaded mass roll. Trying to keep cool and noiseless 5-10 in an office closet? Then just use this setup with a heat exchange condenser (the ones that look like an ac). Only if you can justify the extra cost of equipment and oil. Somewhat hard to make the case for that though. Bitmain tried to do liquid cooling with the c1 but it's not as cost effective. Works OK for hobbyists but not scalable. I'm willing to demonstrate a large scale solution if enough people find value in doing so. What window setup were you considering?
200 percent a day, how why the hell would you be seeking peoples funds if you could guarantee such returns? Get out of here with this preposterous garbage, we already have a bad enough reputation without charlatans like this.
This is reminiscet of the Cray supercomputer. Have you enhanced the CPU working frequency ? Plerhaps you can run your CPUs at double speed with this array. Your curious doggie is realy nice.
I have to ask? Would not the viscosity not matter with the radiator flow rate. If they are rated for water not oil I would imagine the flow rate would not be optimal for cooling with a standard water cooling radiator.

You can actually use many industrial liquids as non-conductive coolant. Also water. You just need to make sure that there are no impurities.. Oil is just better, because it does not evaporate on the operating temperatures of such a system.
Did this like 10 years ago :D still got the vids in my channel and a blog with bunch of information about it. boring. The oil gets warmed up pretty quick and then the whole thing gets hot. Cooling it costs extra energy = youre loosing money on cooling that oil. Also some people write about health concerns (a little bit of that oil evaporates in the air in your room as far as i could find out back then. and then youre breathing it constantly ...)

Battlespace X I'll do it if enough people request doing so. I'll start looking into it. Edit- Only benefit seems to find out the max overclock. Hasn't anyone already done so?
Note that silicon chips has working temperature range, under certain temperatures they might not work or may work faulty. They all have a datasheet containing the working temperature range, that is usually between around -50 and +100C. If there is a kind of luck the silicon chip can create that much heat to heat up the conducting material between the chip and the coolant to maintain the working heat range even with such an excess cooling, then it might work. In worst case there is a chance to break the chip because of thermal difference on the two sides. A lot of materials crack if one side is overcooled and other side it warm. Silicon chips are not different. Keep in mind this might ruin the equipment.
So build it similar to a MRI Scanner. We use liquid helium to cool our magnets. but we layer our silicone and wires in multiple layers of epoxy prior to the "direct" exposure to the liquid.
But even so, the more heat you generate the more of whatever liquid you'll boil off unless you use a condenser unit that captures the boil-off and re-liquefies it.
@@ashtongrist you can purchase them online (eBay). He also missed out (but comments further down), that with his current set up, it's not enough to cool the oil sufficiently. A bigger radiator and pump is needed.
You dont need to put a loop btw.. mineral oil is the coolant itself... And the edges of your aquarium will be eaten by the mineral oil over time.. so youll notice mineral oil leaks
Are there any points for concern when dipping your miner into this or a similar substance? If a novice wanted to carry out this experiment, what might an adept miner say to them in order to prevent damage?
A refrigerator is not designed to cool an active heat source. Think about how long it takes to cool a 12 pack of coke which isn't not generating heat continuously. You'd end up with a really hot fridge.
A refrigerator only pulls the energy (heat) from the inside, and drags less energy into the inside. The hotter it is outside a fridge, it will get hotter inside the fridge.
That’s really nice if you don’t mind can you give us the part list with more details like you bought it from where & how do you installed each part step-by-step thank you.
Indeed Denis Law is one of the best traders in the crypto world, I have made so much profits from trading with his recommended strategy and now I have recently made over 1 btc
Joel Pagan how has it been mining so far? Let's say I had a big tank with 4 miners in it, with oil, do you suppose there would be enough heat in the oil to flow through a coil in my ductwork to heat my home reasonably?
Joel B Technically it would be possible but I don't think you would want that because you want the inverse of that setup. In your case your describing the desire to have the greatest amount of heat go through ducted pipes and then home radiators. In the mining setup you want the least amount of heat going through pipes because your trying to keep the temperature -10 below room temp. I don't want to give specific numbers because they are highly subjective and not fully scientific. However, I am completely certain that 4 of these can keep a 2500sq ft. home perfectly warm all winter long if the home has reasonable insulation and you duct the output to your home vents. No need for costly oil nor containers.
Joel B you will cook the chips in the device. NOT recommended. you need a 300 watts motor with a POOL pump and a car radiator to cool the oil enough. this cost a lot and a month for constructing it.
Moronic idea that obviously wouldn't work better than air and would rapidly degrade your components. Take that rad and attach it directly to the chips, and then increase airflow over the rad instead of putting the whole thing in what is essentially an incubator and using a radiator that is a fraction the volume of the fluid inside the tank that would obviously not be able to deal with the heat. Hugely irresponsible video as I can see people asking how to build this in the comments, without finishing the video and showing people that this doesn't work, and instead calling it "literally the coolest" is encouraging people to throw thousands of dollars and the planet's resources into the trash
That is where you are so so wrong! If anything, this will last longer than any other miner being cooled by air. 1. No dust 2. No corrosion to the PCB 3. This would keep the miner MUCH cooler than just with air What would be even better would be to use a Peltier!
there are many PCs built in mineral oil tanks and they would last for years with almost no damage. because the oil lubricates every mechanical part and at the same time preserve its condition better than being out in the open air, exposed to more impurities.
Hi would like ask the external ventilation wher is connected? To the mother board? Wht is managed the ventilator and circulation oil pump? Order to get 20 celsius? Thanks for answering.
all fun and games until you try to resell it or the mineral oil changes or something in the liquid cimistry changes where it becomes conducive due to contamination
termal capaity have a limits, radiator in air are limited efficency. but i have a similar project wit water coling sistem abbined. effective work better than air.

Great job, but may need to move pump higher in tank to reach the hot oil were at the bottom is the colder oil.
Very cool....did you not face any issues with the fan rpms being affected due to the viscosity of the mineral oil putting a load on the fans?
So from my understanding: the fans do spin slower, but it isn't bad for them.
Fan speed is controlled by current, and then assumed to be roughly correct. So the regulator does not know that the fan is actually spinning slowly.
You can remove the fans just put the hoses under the miner to make it boil out.

So how's this going 3 years later?
lets see the muffler video, please...
That’s really nice if you don’t mind can you give us the part list with more details like you bought it from where & how do you installed each part step-by-step thank you.
The parts list is under the video information at the top. I looked for it too. It's there.
how to waste money.
machael how to be an idiot.
C_Qurity who is machael ?
michael ....irony
irony is machael u say ?
That escalated quickly.
well explained..have you heard about ledu coin and it packages...do you have anything to say on it,I want to invest
There are few men who are expert in trading i count mr Denis Law as one because of his unique trading strategy
i agree with you , Denis is an expert in trading
Indeed Denis Law is one of the best traders in the crypto world, I have made so much profits from trading with his recommended strategy and now I have recently made over 1 btc
Please. I'm from Europe. I want to be a part of this. I need more information. Anyone?
I have been scammed by many others believe me I thought all managers were scams but Mr Denis Law is a good manager thank you sir for assistance 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oh my days! I'm stunned.Thrilling to meet other students of Denis law what a great mentor
Hi mate, exellent work ! Questions: Alimentation can be inside the pool ? And, SSD can also be under the oil ? Thanks
I was looking at making a mineral oil computer years ago but never pulled the trigger. I remember reading that SSD are fine submerged but HDD aren't.
Yes and yes
I would remove the fans on the miner. Waste of power
Joel B True. Depending on what firmware you run. Some older firmware will not allow you to hash if fans are not detected.
Joel Pagan how has it been mining so far?
Let's say I had a big tank with 4 miners in it, with oil, do you suppose there would be enough heat in the oil to flow through a coil in my ductwork to heat my home reasonably?
Joel B Technically it would be possible but I don't think you would want that because you want the inverse of that setup. In your case your describing the desire to have the greatest amount of heat go through ducted pipes and then home radiators. In the mining setup you want the least amount of heat going through pipes because your trying to keep the temperature -10 below room temp.
I don't want to give specific numbers because they are highly subjective and not fully scientific. However, I am completely certain that 4 of these can keep a 2500sq ft. home perfectly warm all winter long if the home has reasonable insulation and you duct the output to your home vents. No need for costly oil nor containers.
Joel B you will cook the chips in the device. NOT recommended. you need a 300 watts motor with a POOL pump and a car radiator to cool the oil enough. this cost a lot and a month for constructing it.
Ravana Brahma Rakshas Why would you need a 300watt pump? With a specific type of looped setup you can avoid having a pump.
How long did the AntMiner survive? What failed if anything? What size fish tank???
Bitcoin minig = ewaste
zamazalotta This isn't mining. This is fishing.
This year my miners completely eliminated my heating bill.
He is tanking
Ironic that you can't spell "mining" correctly.
Indeed, that's why Zoin is such a better option. CPU mining. You could mine with your own personal computer with out the need to invest a dollar.
Awesome!! 🧡
How much would something like this cost turnkey?
I just wanna buy one and have it work.
Moronic idea that obviously wouldn't work better than air and would rapidly degrade your components. Take that rad and attach it directly to the chips, and then increase airflow over the rad instead of putting the whole thing in what is essentially an incubator and using a radiator that is a fraction the volume of the fluid inside the tank that would obviously not be able to deal with the heat. Hugely irresponsible video as I can see people asking how to build this in the comments, without finishing the video and showing people that this doesn't work, and instead calling it "literally the coolest" is encouraging people to throw thousands of dollars and the planet's resources into the trash
That is where you are so so wrong! If anything, this will last longer than any other miner being cooled by air.
1. No dust
2. No corrosion to the PCB
3. This would keep the miner MUCH cooler than just with air
What would be even better would be to use a Peltier!
Dean O mineral oil does damage to plastic and rubber parts...so it depends if it would last longer in mineral oil....
Lipi19821 it is submerged. No damage will be done.
inception69 read my comment again and tell me where you got idea that I dont know its submerget...
there are many PCs built in mineral oil tanks and they would last for years with almost no damage. because the oil lubricates every mechanical part and at the same time preserve its condition better than being out in the open air, exposed to more impurities.
Hi would like ask the external ventilation wher is connected? To the mother board? Wht is managed the ventilator and circulation oil pump? Order to get 20 celsius? Thanks for answering.
The music on your video is so loud you almost can't evaluate how loud the end result is, but great idea nonetheless!
hello, how to mining with fan low speed error due to oil cooling? i made all you made, but i got low speed fan error on my s19 and s9se
Very Creative Project
Yes, talk to hackertrace11 on ¡ntagram for this to earn
congratulations friends!!! excelent video excelente team!! wondeful imagen man
Cool idea! Can you post a vid of how to set it up with a mac? Thats the setup I will have. Didnt know that was even possible.
have you try to put peltier on the radiator to help cooling down the temp?
thanks for the idea, its really nice decoration idea for hobbiest home miners. i wonder how will be the noise level though
all fun and games until you try to resell it or the mineral oil changes or something in the liquid cimistry changes where it becomes conducive due to contamination
Thank you for sharing this, i've been looking to see if someone has done this before i go ahead and do it lol
So.. Did you did it?
يوسف كامل كاظم مسائي c I’ve done this with a computer a decade ago. Haven’t tried with the machine. Not cost effective
good project, what pump do you use?
termal capaity have a limits, radiator in air are limited efficency. but i have a similar project wit water coling sistem abbined. effective work better than air.
OMG Dude I love you. I'm starting on this ASAP. I have the worst one d3. Ultimate noise.
Alex Hlynskyy Noise? Create a loaded mass box and decibels will be between ~35-40. Various have been built and shared as well as the schematics.
D3 still making profits? I thought already die
hay joel, can you upload new update video about this project, is it really help to reduce heat and noise....how it is i running for couple month....thanks
nice one, fan is maybe not needed because of the thermodynamic.
stop scamming, Blockchain or Crytocurrency is not free money, you can´t not short it, invest and trade should be learn and master, read whitepaper have patience, analyse the chart, don´t belive him and 2 side account that he creat to post under the video
Que loco...!!! Muy bueno meu bro..!!
For anyone watching this wanting to try it, don't use mineral oil. Get the stuff from Engineered Fluids. Mineral oil can have Sulphur in it which can corrode electronics.
Any recommendations on what and where to buy? TIA
@@kumarvan579 The product is called BitCool from Engineered Fluids.
