Abstract

A system and method for using waste heat from computing devices is disclosed. Computing devices may be positioned in a device rack and output exhaust air such that heat is transferred into a heat chamber with controllable temperature and a work item rack that is configured to hold one or more work items. By transferring the heat from the computing devices to heat or preheat the heat chamber, the captured heat can be used for useful work such as dehydrating, baking, drying or curing. Humidity can also be controlled, and conveyors may be used to improve the flow of work items. The energy reused may be calculated, recorded and attributed to the work items processed or the work performed by the computing devices.
