Jinu117 SS Worklog (vapoli, UFO, etc)

Other than variable speed compressors and some fancy electronic units... I wonder what is really new in AC field? :P
Anyways, it's looking good so far after bit of retuning.
0-20w -50c evap
200w -41c evap
230w -38c evap
Typically 230w tuned unit used to have 0-20w around -45c... so basically we have now better unloaded temp, better loaded temp :)
as well as same evap temp having also lower cpu temperature than before due to better heat transfer characteristics.. :)
Quite happy with result of unit so far. Time to move on to more testing to make sure unit is fine as well as working on casing part.

Ah nice, captube in the suction always helps a few degrees, question is; is it worth the time and are the results truly a result of that?

You'd be surprised. I was.
We're not even allowed to attach gauges to this thing. Not just because of it's discreetness, but mainly due to the dangerous pressures.:eek: I have already said too much :D

Very Nice Jin !

And thanks for taking the time to do a build log, I know you are super busy. Looking great so far !

Oh man I just noticed the post times ! Working all night till late in the morning.

Again a special thanks for Jin and doing a build log !

This is what the unit is being built for...

Silverstone TJ07
QX9650
EVGA 132-CK-NF79-A1 LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 790i Ultra SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
2 each EVGA GeForce 9800 GX2 1GB 512-bit GDDR3
G.SKILL 4GB(2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Dual Channel
Thermaltake Toughpower 1200W
HITACHI Deskstar 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
MTRON 32GB Pro SSD for OS

All equipment is here atm

:eek: what a monster rig !

WOW... Nice work Jin. I just sent my Vapochill out to you to be modified. After seeing this thread I know now it is in very very capable hands.

There is no doubt that Jin is one of the most knowledgable and skilled members here.

Ok perhaps a dumb question...

What does this refer to: load block at -18c ?

His load tester block is @ -18. This is what he uses to simulate CPU load.

ooohh ok gotcha. Thanks :)

Something I am fooling around with...
Transparent Enclosure and probably will put some LED (haven't decided where would be best).
Thing is, this is 2 part with bottom tube lathed and top laser cut than milled for holding them.
I do need to glue them together but don't want it to come out messy... what glue do I use? :)

Messy comes down to how well you apply basically, lots of practice makes perfect clear joints :)

use weld-on #2

beautiful work.

YOU COPIED SSILENCER!
(sorry i had to :) )

i wish i had your cnc laser. if you don't mind me asking did you pay under 5 grand for it?

regards

Where is the evap that will go inside of it? :stick:

:eek: :ROTF:

its 211 am here and I made a study break and saw this... I only browse this section as I admire phase change ( although i dont have a phase change unit)..my head is torn into pieces right now.. I dont have the energy to kick your butt right now :p

No Glue ,you may want to check out friction welding.:)

No he copied me, and I copied Ssilencer, remember. lol
You can also use acetone to bond them together.
It is a little tricky as the solvent is way thinner then water. With acetone you would soak them but you would have to come up with a way to isolate your glueing surfaces. You might be able to use wax. I would give it a try with some scrap.
By soaking them the acrylic becomes almost soft. When both pieces are like this they will fuse together becoming completely transparent.

Edit: friction welding is no good for acrylic.

Jinu the best way is solvent Glue you can buy it at any store where they sale plastics acrylics you need to apply it with a seringe and is invisible to the eye after is glued together....... I have use before it works excelent or I can send you a bottle when I get back to USA I will be back this Thursday . Let me know .

NOT MY WORK! THIS IS TRIBALOVERKILL
you can see the work he produces on his reservoirs by using weld on #2
http://www.tribaloverkill.com/studio...007_14-800.jpg
sorry for bad pic...
http://www.tribaloverkill.com/studio...2005_5-640.jpg

unpolished but i think thats the way to go.

and that link just because its amazing :O he made that with very limited tools.


Its watery and you apply a tiny bit. It actually melts the 2 plastics and fuses them together.

Regards

+1 for weld on #2, it does a great job getting into the cracks between acrylic surfaces and forming a tight seal. It essentially welds the two plastic surfaces together so the bond is usually the strongest part.

INCREDIBLE WORK!!!! Welcome this thread to 2010!!

Read the thread, Jinu went off the sceen for all manners of reasons way back
