Hi all!
I've got a room. NO windows. MANY computers (well OK, 8, but hope to go higher, think big BOINC farm). Even with good air cooling on each proc, the whole room gets to hot.
What to do?
I've seen "portable air conditioners" that have dehumidifiers built in, so they generate little or no water to empty. They can be wheeled around a room, BUT, they all want to use an exhause hose to go out a window.
Will I get ANY cooling with one of these devices in my room with no window to vent it out? Or will the air conditioner simply exhaust as much heat as it cools, giving the room no benefit?
Thanks!
