Is there such a thing? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Andy |

Vapochill and Prometia made cooling systems like that.
The best system you can do is a chilled water cooling system if you're trying to cool a CPU and a video card. You're gonna need a TON of insulation and wrap, but I've seen these and they work quite nicely. The idea is that instead of a radiator to cool the water down to above room temp, you run chilled water over your components to cool them off well blow room temperature. A modified window AC unit can be used for this. Peltiers don't work for computer cooling, there are simply too many watts of heat to move, and peltiers only create a delta of temperature, they don't have an evaporation temperature like a real phase change cooler. One of my favorite methods of cooling a computer is with a bong cooler. You use a big PVC pipe apparatus and a shower head to spray the water down a 3" or 4" PVC tube to a reservoir at the bottom. The evaporation of some of the water cools the whole system down quite nicely instead of just using a radiator to cool your water. I can draw up the plans for any of these if anyone needs one of them. |
