Strato - nice concepts applied here .... still out on the extra cost of that huge fan though ...
They're designed EXACTLY to trap the flow and prevent it from escaping.
Thats nonsense. With the fan that ships with the S5, there's no chane of trapping anything between the blades. In any case, why trap the heat in the first place?
You want that air to continue down the entire length of the blades before being allowed to exit, else you end up with an even larger temperature gradient down the blades.
Thats waffle.
The curved design also adds significant surface area [heat transfer] for the same amount of material and volume.
Absolute nonsense! You mean the same material occupies less area when curved. Curving does NOT increase surface area (let alone significantly).
As a last point, passive convection effects are almost negligible in regards to heat removal when you have active convection operating.
So what's this all about then? "

Stand the Miner Vertical. Set it up like I drafted it out in my Op Post. See the heat difference. See the OC capability difference.
I have 24 of these. Im not making this up.
Yes the S5 is easilly a 1300 Ghash miner. All it takes is a 90 Degree Rotation of the unit.
