srry I was on the wrong page to post a new thread, but while im here let me say :slobber: :slobber: at all your creations people :D
Zytrachill looks superpimp
that is a really nice chiller ya got there tricknasty
Thats frickin awesome!! great job !!
looks like a factory job amigo, nice work
A time ago i bought this rusty old condensing unit. Perfect for my chiller. I took it apart so i could use the condensor and baseplates for the chiller. The compressor was good enough to use for vacuming the system, the final compressor for the chiller is a 1/5HP Unidad Hermetica (l'Unité Hermetique).
Lot's of rust needed to be removed, but after one day cleaning and painting this was the result....
A pretty clean unit :)
Fixed the pipework and vacuum unit :toast:
Charging with R290 :D I like ice :p:
nice job! that prolly cost you clsoe to nothing. good job :D
I didn't really "buy" the condensing unit. Just brougt some kilograms of old copper tubing to the scrapyard, and i could take the unit away :p: . The other compressor was about $ 7 or something :DQuote:

time to insulate the board. :D
Nice wrappage around the block. How did you get it to look so "clean?"
The insulation of the block was made by a friend :) . It still condensing on the top, maybe because it is make from aluminium.
Very nice guys!
I'm looking into building a chiller now since I have outgrown my Water setup.:)
I wanted a small/compact chiller I could fit inside my case. Is there something like that I could do?
From what I see here the chillers you guys use are HUGE!!
you can definately fit a chiller in a case, with a tiny compressor such as a bd35. bd50 (these compressor can fit in the 5.25" drive bay (takes up 4 bays)
How effective is that? What temps can be reached with that setup?Quote:

Its hard to make it fit, but with some consessions (just one optical drive and one or two harddisks) it's possible, but still hard.
you will need to fit the reservoir too.
Why?Quote:

It basically case a water jacket design around the evap....
That probably would be a little easier with a full tower case. At least give you room for more drives and maybe better routing for the lines.Quote:

I run it 24/7 at 2 temps...1) fairly warm while I'm at work at 60f (16c) and 2) 32f (0c) when testing. I'm working on 2 overclocks to go with those temps now.
I'd run it much colder but I don't feel like having my DD NV68 water block crack, lol! :caution:
So impressed by all your chillers guys.......and very jealous! :) I havnt even got my water cooling system together yet, so it will be a while till I fab up a chiller, but when I get to it.....I know Ill be comming to you guys for help! Keep up the good work! :)
Athens, NICE setup ;)
Kinda messy :) but it works!
Got down to -41c antifreeze/prestone de-icer combo w/ 10 bottles of hydrx.
Load is -19c @ 3.32 1.68v on my 3700+ sandy.

I believe it would be very cool on regular ice and extremely cool with dry ice.
I just ordered 1 $100. I will try it . Notice it has a drain for easy water disposal. and its well insulated. looks good.
Please all comments helpful. :spam:
Forgot to mention its a moroso cool can for drag racing. So I will be adding High performance racing stuff to my PC :woot: Now how cool is that?
Nice unit for cooling resevoir. Can work well. A little pricey, but a nice unit.

My simple ChilleR22 ...chiller with 1/6 HP compressor with R22 :)
http://www.members.lycos.co.uk/piotres1/chiller/12.jpg
The unit has been sold already - it'll cool a 3000+ Venice and 7800 gtx :cool:
I personaly have just finished a cooler in witch U put ice and some chemicals to get around -56.The question for U is what kind of liquid do I need to be chilled at that temperature and still hace a good flow.(will simple car antifrost solution do the job?)
Piotres, that's an awesome chiller. I think I'll build one similar someday when I get my tools ;)
Hi, here is my 1st chiller, it turned out quite nice. Uses 2 x Tecumseh 1/10hp compressors, R404a and is compact at 14"x14"x12" basically 1 square foot.
Temps with 185watt load is liquid around -7c to -12c and CPU -2c to 3c. I suspect with a good pump and suitable liquid, temps can be even lower.

Thx mate! :)
i threw ice in my res once does that count? lol.
seriously tho guys those setups are awesome. my next project is gonna include one of these. its gonna need to be quiet as heck tho and portable. also its going to be all one case. comp and chiller. i think ill just build a whole new case from scratch.
good job tho guys keep it up.
EMP - K3 first prototype
-50C~ @ the coil
http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/261...ure018s4ft.jpg
Hmm seems like your temps may be inacurate.......the bottom of the coil isn't even frosted........Anyway this picture doesnt do it justice and is old. Ive cleaned up the insualtion and wiring since then and it looks a lot neater. 1 hour of pull down with a 1 1/2 gallon res \/ think the temp is wrong also propylene glycol froze when it was -40F. The antifreeze i used claimed -50F
http://members.cox.net/wmdieselmc26/chiller%201
in the pic u see it turned off...
Ahh ok. was gonna say if the bottom of coil can't beat ambient temps and freeze......................Quote:

I have a real small pump right now. I have a bigger one on order should be here this week but I have my 333fsb 3000+ (2166MHz) running at 400fsb giving me a clean 2600mhz. I haven't pushed the limits on this yet I will once my new pump going. Right now the system is rock solid stable at 400fsb. My CPU temps are off from what they are actually are. I put a layer insulating tape under my CPU in the open square, I am sure that is where the motherboards temp sensor is. anyway here is a screen shot of 2600mhz.

case sides on.
Got another pc-07 on the way that needs to have a trim ;) to match the top.
Its holding water at 15c so its nicly above the dew point so dont haft to insulate :)
nice stuff. Making me jealous. :D
all kitted up and working. need to adjust the bolts to get both of them perfectly lined up but for now its good enough :) (need to give it a polish to remove the finger prints :P)

Bump Repost
Hey guys i'm an utter newbie but as a half fast suggestion maybe u guys should try submerging your entire motherboard in non conductive liquid so it won't condense. Like submerge everything in a large cooler and have everything connected to wires leading out of a hole in the cooler. I know they sell non conductive liquid or maybe even oil will work.
Then the fluid would itself need to be sealed off to prevent it from being contaminated and therefore conductive and the fluid is 700$ a gallon and makes plastics fragile. A few hours of careful work and 10$ of neoprene insulation is simple and can be tested in a less scary way then firing up your board and seeing if its not fried while its in a tank of the worlds most expensive liquid. Everyone does the foam forts on the CPU+GPU for a reason.
Theres also this, had a nasty accident with my case and a mug of tea; typing this message out on the same rig that got soaked. Its 30$ a can and is enough for more then 1 mobo even double coated on both sides.

Maybe I can add my butt ugly AC chiller to this thread once I am done.
edit:Just saw Sc4mpi's rig and it is amazing...does it consistently stay above dew point?
Very nice and clean, Sc4mpi.

Just one question: what waterpumps do you use with your waterchillers?
I'm using Laing DDC+ ...
Any issue with low temps?Quote:

well, what did you expect, waterchillers aren't designed to take the water to below 0c because of condensation for one thing, and the whole freezing point thing as another. If you want to go below 0, you'll have to either use soemthing crazy like liquid nitrogen and use copper tubing instead of plastic to prevent extreme condensation from happening. That's why many people use phae changes instead for extreme cooling, that, or if you know the problems with tec and how to combat them, you could try that out instead and that should get you below 0, but as long as you are getting good cpu:water temps, I wouldn't worry about it
AliG i suggest you use more reading, and actally look thru the rest of the chiller gallery.
I must most strenuously disagree, good sir! Water chillers are, more often than not, intended to operate at temperatures well below 0*C. Yes, additives are needed in the coolant, and yes, insulation is a concern, but a chiller can be a very effective way to reach cold temps on multiple components, ie a CPU and a GPU. I myself am in the process of assembling parts for a chiller that will sustain a 400 watt load (CPU+GPU+NB) at -30*C, or colder. I'd like to see a direct die unit try that! ;)Quote:

It sounds eerily familiar...
-70 is a waste of energy for a large unit IMO For such a server system you will get good efficiency at 0C for a given capacity
