Since I had all three RS series radiators tested now, I decided to use that data and fiddle with a different estimator. Granted it's still just a rough estimate, (different fans will provide different performances) but this time I created power curves for the c/w vs fan rpm data points I had and made the estimator have the ability to select any fan RPM at 50RPM increments.
In addition, I made it possible to add up to four radiators in series to see thermal performance benefits.
Just playing around with format, what do you think?
I'm still going by the assumption that 5C or lower is Extreme Performance, 10C average, etc..but I'd be interested in what people think about that too.
Attached is the 97 excel format file zipped.
If it's recieved well, I might start making individual ones for each radiator, etc.
What would be helpful to add or change with this?
Update 7-27-08 Newer version:
Added a percentage user control shroud gain and did some chart formatting to make it a bit more clear.
Also made several other versions of radiators I had tested.
