Methodology & Sequence

The 5-Stage Facility Commissioning Architecture

Developed through five years of laboratory testing in Gimpo and field deployments throughout Gyeonggi-do.

01
Phase 1: Grid & Substation

KEPCO Grid Interconnection & High-Voltage Step-Down

Verify substation transformer headroom with KEPCO regional dispatchers. Sizing 22.9kV to 415V/240V step-down dry-type or oil-immersed transformers, calculating fault current ratings, and installing active harmonic filters to maintain a lagging power factor above 92%.

Key Deliverable: Single-line electrical diagram (SLD), short-circuit calculation report, and KEPCO Industrial Tariff classification brief.
02
Phase 2: Thermal Systems

Aero-Thermal Dynamics & Dielectric Immersion Tanks

Design hot-aisle/cold-aisle containment or negative-pressure plenum rooms engineered for Korean seasonal humidity. For ultra-dense deployments (>40 kW/rack), integrate single-phase synthetic hydrocarbon immersion tanks with dry-cooler closed loops.

Key Deliverable: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) airflow simulation, static pressure fan curves, and wet-bulb temperature mitigation matrices.
03
Phase 3: Life Safety & Codes

Fire Suppression, Acoustic Barriers & Municipal Permitting

Implement clean-agent gaseous fire suppression (Novec 1230 / FM-200) compliant with NFPA 75/76 and Korean National Fire Safety Standards (NFSC). Install acoustic baffle louvers to satisfy municipal noise ordinances in industrial business parks.

Key Deliverable: Certified fire protection blueprint, sound propagation perimeter study (<55 dB at boundary), and municipal construction permit file.
04
Phase 4: Legal Structuring

Non-Custodial Infrastructure Structuring & FIU Alignment

Draft pure physical rack-lease and power-hosting agreements that maintain non-custodial operations under the Virtual Asset User Protection Act. Structure joint ventures to eliminate unintended VASP regulatory exposure.

Key Deliverable: Standard facility hosting contract template, non-custodial operational memo, and KoFIU reporting guidance.
05
Phase 5: Financial Systems

Automated Timestamped Ledgers & Tax Audit Preparedness

Integrate hardware hash output telemetry with dual-entry accounting ledgers. Calculate unit power cost per terahash, establish 2-3 year declining balance asset depreciation schedules, and record block rewards with Korean won fair-market-value timestamps.

Key Deliverable: NTS-compliant chart of accounts, Excel ledger automation workbook, and K-IFRS 1036 asset impairment model.

Train on Real Substation & Immersion Hardware

All 5 stages of our planning methodology are practiced directly in our Gimpo engineering laboratory. Students operate high-voltage disconnects, calibrate CFD airflow meters, and work on liquid immersion test tanks.
