You do know that presure/enthalpy chart & diagram you posted is for supercritical/transcritical CO2 system...........don't you??????? IIRC the critical pressure is around 1070 psig for scCO2.

You should tell the person who originally posted it!Quote:

The post right before I made yours........Ruffus's Thread go look. ;) NICE JOB and NICE CLOCKS:up:
You mentioned you wanted 200 psi for a high pressure but post supercritical/transcritical systems where the high side can be 1400 to 2000 psi with a 500 psi low side. :shrug:
It would really help if you stated precisely (with a link to) which post you are referring to at the time you make a statement. That way there wouldn't be this kind of confusion. Since this has pretty much become my thread, I automatically thought you were being critical of me. I simply copied someone else's post here. And in doing so, there's a link to it for everyone to follow back to the original post. If you mention someone else's post/thread, please post the link to it as well.Quote:

Shingoshi it was already pointed out people don't want to chase links wasting there time. I would like to see you build a unit that works....... really :)
Maybe 2 or 3 compressors and shoot for - 80 or -90 with a load. :cool:
With all those compressors I don't think you realize how technically difficult you proposed build is,especially for a first build. How are you going to reject all that "heat of compression" from those !
Shingoshi, did I meet you in Oregon? Harmonic Phase Separation? When I saw it, I recognized it as just a vortex tube (seeking mass funds) and never heard from them again.
I have one of these. Going on my next cascade.

I own a working helium unit.
thanx, nice sharing :up:Quote:

The J-pipe is used to prevent liquid refrigerant from returning to the compressor. Not visible in the picture is the small (sub-millimeter) hole at the bottom of the J-pipe which allows oil to return to the compressor instead of building up in the accumulator.

Never seen one of those before but that is what I thought it was also. Very interesting accumulator, are those available on the market?Quote:

1) You link way too often to random stuff.Quote:

How hard was that? Even a polite "please view post #xxx" would have been helpful. Don't treat everyone as an opponent of your work.. I'm one of the few that is actually genuinely interested in it.
I was bidding on an essential piece of equipment on Ebay, only to have the "reserve not met" as the result. I was the only one who bid on it. So if it was so valuable, someone else should have thought so too. Instead, it sat for days with no activity. And this was something that I really needed. So I was still pissed at the time I wrote that.Quote:

I have to do that all day when I'm searching for product information. And I'm not complaining to anyone about it. Most of the time when you look at a page of grouped products, the thumbnail image of each item is usually the link to the specifications of that product. It's just something I've come to expect. So I didn't think it should be an issue for anyone who really wanted to know something.
EDIT: And I'm genuinely sorry. Because I've come to realize that you have indeed been in my corner, so to speak. You're the last person I really want to piss off. Please forgive the insult. Man, I really wanted that Leica component!
EDIT: I don't feel so bad now!! I got another Leica component to replace the one I wanted. And it has more of what I needed! Small miracles can come in small packages.

Yes, they are cheap too. The reason thay are cheap is because they are easy to make and subsequently not terribly effective as a suction line heat exchanger.Quote:

Would you please explain why these are ineffective, and why it's a solution for a problem that shouldn't exist?Quote:

And it might be important.
As many of you have already gathered, I do a lot of online research. I don't buy anything without first doing exhaustive research to have some idea of what my options are. And in the process of doing this, I've come across something really interesting.
As it turns out, processors aren't the only chips that benefit from cooling.
Yes guys, I'm talking about cameras here. I was looking for a sensor head to attach to the optics I've been purchasing lately. And while doing so, I came across this company called Lumenera. They specialize in medical and industrial cameras. And most of them use USB as the interface and C-mounts for their lenses.Quote:
Low Light and Long Exposure Times (Cooled CCD)
INFINITY3 cameras are cooled to 25ºC below ambient to reduce dark
current noise to a negligible level. This results in a 50% decrease in
dark current noise for every 6 to 8ºC in temperature below ambient.
http://www.lumenera.com/images/produ...y-prodpage.jpg
Finally, there may be a real application for the private development of extreme sub-cooling as envisioned by this project/thread. If I/we can prove that such systems are capable of practical 24/7 use, I/we will have an important point for others to observe. And the nice thing about it, cameras don't produce a lot of heat compared to processors. Most of you already have built systems that would produce tremendous results for low-temperature applications. What most of you do for fun, doesn't have to strictly be a hobby. Think about that...

Hey Shingoshi-
Can you please give a simple overview of how you're envisioning this system? As in listing the components of each stage, and refrigerants at each stage. This will help people get what your thinking is, as I'm sure that I'm not the only one here who doesn't see how you plan to fit
