    Linus (ocztony here) I had a 4 board system for testing in a workshop, indirect water to water cooling as well as 4 outside mounted 360 rads in series, the loop actually coped with over 1kw spread over the 4 boards with ease, in the winter I could actually sub 0c cool a CPU or 2 for well over 4 hrs depending on outside temps. A closed loop 150w system is easy, just don't think overclocking and 100% load permanently. For say a HTPC yep well doable, 2 rads and the right design of block on the video and that can be cooled also. It's all about the block and rad design to get flow moving quickly.
    Shame I did not keep any pics, the pc stuff is a past life for me now.
    BTW the rad needs to be cross flow, rad tilted down from the horizontal, hot in the high end and cold out the low end, around 20deg from horizontal is best. If you want to move a ton of heat mount the rads outside ;)

      yeah, that was what I was thinking when I saw him having the rad on the box tilted with the tubes up. Linus would get more cooled liquid get to the heatsink, if he tilted it the other way as you say in BTW. as he has it a lot of cooled liquid stays in the rad and only a small amount circulates, and it does not get enough time to cool down enough. some basic physics classes could be useful for Linus :)

  • @donaldasayers
    @donaldasayers 5 лет назад +203

    Boiling liquid cooling requires the condenser/radiator to be mounted with the liquid outlet lower than the gas inlet so that circulation can occur without bubbles of gas fighting the returning liquid.
    Turn the radiator slightly on its side so that one outlet is at the bottom and turn the cpu so that the gas can exit at the top. Top to top, bottom to bottom.

    • @nwimpney
      @nwimpney 4 года назад +9

      Really, what this needs is a crossflow radiator so the vapour line enters at the top, and as it condenses, it runs down to the bottom of the rad, and returns to the block as liquid.
      I've experimented with a similar unwicked heatpipe in the past, but mine just used a large hose, instead of a proper circuit with a return.
      It worked well to a point, but because there was no force to the flow putting liquid back onto the block, it would eventually cross a threshold where there was a continuous bubble, and the cooling mostly stopped.

    Proper tweak would be to mount the radiator in a way where the thick hot tube is positioned on the top and the thin tube at the bottom, fluid convection works better if the hot fluid enters radiator from the top and and becomes heavy due to cooling by the radiator thus exiting the radiator from the bottom creating a naturally circulating fluid due to heating(by cpu) and cooling(by radiator)... good luck !

    I did some research on non-powered cooling, and while I can't remember half of it, I do remember that you needed a long "cooling space". Some houses in warmer climes tend to keep a long line of hose snaking below their house, connected to their fans/heat gatherer. The idea is that the long distance of the cooling space ensures that one tube is "hot" and the other slightly less so, if you have two tubes both the same length, there isn't enough difference between the two and you just have two hot tubes and not enough circulation.

    • @peterkiss1204
      @peterkiss1204 5 лет назад +3

      Actually if you just put the lower end of the returning tube under the heatsource, it won't lead vapor out as bubbles travel upwards in the liquid. While the vapor tube should have a small protruding edge into the radiator that elevates the end of the tube above the sinking port (upper end of the returning tube), therefore prevents liquid flowing back.
      The main problem with this cooler is the pressure probably isn't lowered enough in the system to get the water boil at a significantly lower level than at atmospheric circumstances. And that type of radiator was designed with pressurized water in mind. Those flat liquid channels don't really clean up due to the capillary effect keeps some liquid in them further reducing that small contact surface the vapor could condensate on. I tried this exact method before, but with better tubing and ethanol coolant (has much lower boiling point, doesn't corrode metals and prevents any life form from growing in the loop), but wasn't really impressed with the results. Although I didn't give up the project completely as I'm working on a different radiator design.

    levels are crucial in this system. The bubble outlet must be located above the liquid return in the waterblock on the cpu and the bubble tube must reach the radiator above the connection of the returning tube to the cpu. Otherwise the gravity can't help to the circular flow of the fluid in the circuit.
    Water must not be the fluid and the filling microtube should be because it uses a fluid within a subatmosferic pressure that allow boiling just above room temperature but well bellow the Tjunction of the CPU. That allows evaporation in the upper side of cpu block, vapor entering the upper side of the radiator, condensation along the radiator, liquid flow by gravity to the lower connection on the radiator and descending also by gravity to the lower port of the cpu block. Fluid must be less viscous than water to improve flow and bubble trapping.
    that means the radiator must have a different design, so condensation can accumulate in the exit port of the radiator.

      I'll just add a quick comment on that; all of the orientations except the best one were used. The skinny pipe should be at the bottom of the resivoir, and the fat at the top, not at the same level; that will let the vapor-side be vapor in the top, and liquid side mostly liquid... in the end the pressure is 99% the same throughout the system so I'm not sure how you'd ever 100% get it to 'flow'. Put the radiator on its side, with the pipes one above another; a direction that it would like never be mounted in a case.

      Wouldn't really matter. This is phase change, not really convection. If you just had to have a continuous flow, a one way valve would take care of that.

    • @stephenfoster2532
      @stephenfoster2532 5 лет назад +17

      It actually does matter. For passive systems, having the radiator in a downflow configuration works better since that is the natural flow path for the fluid that is being cooled.
      Further both conduction and convection are involved. Conduction is the primary mechanism getting the energy from the processor into the fluid and convection is the primary mechanism cooling it back off in the radiator.
      In the radiator, the tubes near the entry of the hot fluid may be multiphase, but if the radiator is effective, the tubes near the outlet should be solid liquid.
      Interestingly, you could easily do this with water if you fill the system, then lower the pressure in the system with a vacuum pump. Lower pressure drops the boiling temp of water. With the right combination of temp and pressure, you can actually make water exist in all three states simultaneously. It's the critical point of water.
      A one way valve would most likely prevent the system from operating. Yes, with the passive systems you have flow, but the only head pressure developed will be the velocity pressure generated from the momentum of the fluid itself. A one way valve, regardless of the type, will induce a pressure drop to great for the passive systems to overcome and thus flow will stop. Changes in pressure are what generate flow.

It naturally has a boiling point around 64c and a vacuum would lower that substantially. That would explain not using typical plastics or rubber seals. It does not however transfer heat so well so it would have to stay quite cool to do the job which further supports it being under vacuum.

    they should put a pair of one way valve on both tube, so that only 1 tube is responsible for the heated coolant, and the other will be responsible for returning the cooled liquid. it will also help to raise the heated liquid quicker.

      Not needed. If Linus has held the radiator in the correct orientation with one of the tubes higher than the other onto the radiator it would have flowed nicely. Hot water rises while cold water sinks. The radiator is a long path running from one end of it to the other and back with the tubes connected on each end of that path. He basically tried to force hot water in to both ends of the radiator.

      @Hello World They would be expensive to produce and exceedingly large to do the flow required. They are not one way valves, they just give high flow resistance in one direction vs the other. You are also dealing with gasses, not just liquids in this design. The design also requires high velocities fluid velocities. The resistance ratio goes up the higher the fluid velocity is. The velocity of the fluid in this arrangement is very low. In order for this type of device to be helpful, it would need to deal with a single phase and use a pump to achieve the velocities needed to get a ratio. Both of these constraints defeat the purpose of the intended design. A hollow plastic float on the cold side oriented in the vertical direction that would seal into a seat would work much better and be much cheaper to design. It would probably also offer too much resistance to makes its use more effective than not having it at all.

      Hello World it can be done with an different layout of the radiator quite easily. They could have the entire top side of a horizontal radiator as hot side and bottom part as the cold side. :) it would be a bit ticker than the radiator used here but other than that practically identical.

    I think it is supposed to work like the bubble-pump in a coffee-maker. There are stem bubbles forming that float up pushing the liquid as it expands. That's why it should be mounted vertically with the large pipe up, liquid+steam takes more space than just liquid.

    It's called thermo-siphoning.
    Early automotive water cooling works the same way.
    Liquid used in the thermal solution had very low boiling temperature. The boiled liquid turned into gas and carry heat away from heat source. Once the gas cooled, it return to liquid state and continue the cycle all over again.

    This is kinda funny. I did the same thing back in 2004, using a single thick hose and a floorboard radiator for cooling and HFC152a (Canned Duster) as a transfer medium.
    It almost worked. It kept my tbird 1400 nice and cool all day long under moderate loads (better than typical fan cooler), but because of the overly simple block design, under heavy load it would eventually boil fast enough that it had a sustained bubble keeping most of the fluid from returning to the block, and the temperature would quickly spike and crash the CPU. (No thermal throttling in those days)

Though if it still will require a fan, a decent tower with low noise fan will do it better and cheaper.

    A wild guess:
    The "fill port" at the block may initially have been used to fill the system to a certain level with liquid (most likely water, with additives).
    By sucking out the remaining air to make a lower pressure inside the system, the water will boil at a lower temperature.
    The "fill port" is then sealed to avoid any air entering the system.
    I guess the clear tubes are ribbed to withstand the negative pressure......to stop them from imploding.

      The gas and electrons are still moving. Ion thrusters also produce very little force (barely enough to levitate paper) and at least a little bit of heat.
