1) What is the effect of using much larger tubing than the suction inlet for the compressor? (joined by way of a reducer before the compressor).
2) What is the practical limit, if any, for the length of suction line (for a chiller or DD system).
3) Why is it necessary to use braided hose for the suction when working pressure is 500PSI for a standard hose and that when off a system suction side won't see more anywhere near such pressure (when equalised).
Also,
Since I run my PSU watercooled along with my GPU I'd like to know if it is possible to run 2 evaporators (like dual head), one to hold the PSU/GPU above dewpoint temps. The other to cool the insulated CPU. I don't fancy requiring a chiller and addtional w/c loop radiator/fan for the rest of the rig. It would be great if I could have the 2 loops coming from the single chiller. Insulating the GPU and PSU is too hard for me.
Thanks all.
