A.R.T. Digital to Deliver First System Built to JouleForce Specifications

AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A.R.T. Digital Holdings Corp. (OTCMKTS: CGAC), a publicly traded Digital Energy and Bitcoin mining company, today announced that it has entered into a binding exclusivity agreement to secure the rights to utilize Forced Physics’ JouleForce™ cooling technology in the cryptocurrency mining sector.

This strategic collaboration will see A.R.T. Digital spearhead the development of a scalable mining system built to JouleForce specifications, aiming to revolutionize Bitcoin mining efficiency and unlock new horizons for the industry. This initiative marks a significant step towards addressing Bitcoin mining's greatest challenges - thermal management, sustainability and operational efficiency.

This exclusive agreement highlights A.R.T. Digital's commitment to advancing Bitcoin mining technology and opens up new avenues for the company to shape industry approaches to thermal management, reinforcing its role in next-generation mining solutions.

A.R.T. Digital will deliver its first system built to JouleForce specifications. This initiative combines Forced Physics' transformative cooling innovation with advanced system development to ensure seamless integration, aiming to enhance efficiency and scalability in the mining sector.

“This project highlights the power of innovation and collaboration,” said Brian Snyder, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at A.R.T. Digital. “By bringing JouleForce technology to life, we’re not just solving Bitcoin mining’s most critical challenge—we're creating an entirely new standard for sustainable, high-performance operations.”

This breakthrough technology and strategic collaboration underscore A.R.T. Digital's commitment to advancing the Bitcoin mining industry, opening doors to untapped energy-rich regions and setting the stage for transformative growth.

Advancing Cooling EfficiencyAs Bitcoin mining hardware evolves to smaller, more powerful nodes like 3nm processors, thermal management has emerged as a critical challenge. Traditional cooling systems depend on large temperature differentials (delta T) between the chip's operating temperature and intake air to dissipate heat effectively. In warmer climates where ambient air exceeds 95°F (35°C), this reliance significantly reduces efficiency, forcing machines to throttle performance, lower hash rate output and ultimately diminish mining profitability.

Even in controlled environments with intake air at 70°F, conventional heat sinks fall short. A chip operating at 185°F typically exhausts air at only 100-110°F, creating a large and inefficient temperature gap. This inefficiency drives higher energy consumption for fans, HVAC systems and other cooling infrastructure, adding substantial operational costs.

Forced Physics’ JouleForce cooling technology addresses this challenge head-on. By utilizing a vapor chamber coupled with their patented engineered blades, the system maximizes thermal exchange between air molecules and the heat sink surface. Unlike traditional systems, JouleForce minimizes the temperature gap, allowing exhaust air temperatures to approach the chip's operating temperature even in extreme heat, enabling efficient and reliable performance where conventional solutions fail. In cooler environments, this innovation allows for effective overclocking.

Key benefits of JouleForce cooling technology include:

This breakthrough enables mining systems to operate efficiently in extreme environments, unlocking opportunities in energy-abundant but traditionally impractical regions.

“This isn’t just incremental progress—it's a complete rethinking of air cooling,” said Brian Snyder, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at A.R.T. Digital. “While delta T inefficiencies limit traditional systems, JouleForce technology aligns cooling performance directly with the chip's needs. This enables Bitcoin miners to operate efficiently where other systems simply cannot.

Real-World Validation and ScalabilityJouleForce cooling technology has demonstrated stable operation in extreme temperatures where traditional systems fail or throttle performance. Powered by a single high-power blower, the system optimizes energy efficiency and density, offering a scalable, water-free solution. This innovative design eliminates operational complexities and reduces infrastructure costs, making it ideal for deployment in energy-rich but hot climates like the Middle East, South America and other regions with scarce water resources.

Unlocking a New Era of MiningJouleForce technology empowers Bitcoin miners to:

This innovation addresses the thermal limitations of modern mining hardware, setting a new standard for efficiency and sustainability and paving the way for the future of Bitcoin mining in underdeveloped, energy-abundant regions.
