There are two methods to cool ASICs, by using airflow or by submersing the machines in dielectric coolant. A couple of weeks ago I wrote an article about immersion-cooled mining. This time I looked into air-cooling and airflow management.

Here's the Tweet from the author of the newsletter that kicked off the Twitter thread where this issue was shared:
There are 2 main methods of cooling used in #Bitcoin mining: air-cooling & liquid/immersion cooling. Air-cooled mining is the traditional and technically less complex method for managing heat. The temperature of mining equipment is regulated by creating an airflow 🧵 👇
