US10455742

1. An architecture for cryptocurrency mining, comprising: (9) (5)

a plurality of modules separated into a warm section and a cool section, each module including an intake shutter, a macroparticle filtration system, an air temperature altering filtration system, and a microparticle filtration system in the cool section;

a panel separating the warm section and the cool section, the panel having apertures;

a plurality of computers within the modules adapted to perform calculations for mining cryptocurrencies, the plurality of computers arranged to be positioned in the cool section and eject heat directly to the warm section through the apertures;

exhaust fans positioned in the warm section for moving warm air out of the modules;

whereby modules are arranged so that the moving warm air from adjacent modules enter a common current of upwardly moving air outside of the modules.

2. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, further comprising a motorized intake shutter for controlling an opening of the intake shutter. (0)

3. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, further comprising a water curtain positioned between the macroparticle filtration system and the microparticle filtration system. (1) (0)

5. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, further comprising a window above the plurality of computers. (0)

6. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, wherein the modules include a roof having an inclination with the horizontal of between 7 and 12 degrees. (0)

7. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, wherein the plurality of computers is coupled to a distribution cabinet. (1) (0)

9. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, wherein the apertures in the panel are of a size equal to a size of fans in the plurality of computers. (0)

10. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, wherein the panel is comprised of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). (0)

11. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, wherein the module maintains an internal temperature of between 20-30 degrees centigrade and a relative humidity of air inside the module of between 30-60%. (0)

12. The architecture for cryptocurrency mining of claim 1, wherein the plurality of computers are positioned two thirds of a distance between the intake shutter and the exhaust fans. (0)
