Watercooled 320w Peltier Project

[shifteh]

unfortually i dont have a cam

its like on 2 corners where the ceramic comes from 2 corners into a point , that point is slightley chipped off revealing only a !VERY! small ammount of metal

the only thing i can think of that will stop this working is if the pelt had an atmosphere that was made for it inside it when sealed

to be careful ill put the chipped side on the cold side because i know epoxy fails under heat , have no idea under cold

i just woke up and im inspecting the epoxy
ich epoxy tastes weird


Does anybody know the fail temp of West systems 105 using slow hardener 206?.

i looked around and couldant find anything. about the fail temps
there's some on my old server i used as a workbench its a Compaq prolaint 3000 so its big enough when i get home i think ill see if its set and get my infra thermo and heat it with my heatgun untill it fails then il get some baseline

Woot another injury

oh well i think its sealed ill do more sealing later tonight ill go and make this heat sink smooth the only other massive heat sinks on my powersupplys rectifier meh and ill need that for to power it up,,, meh maby a few seconds wont hurt just to see if it works MEH what better way to check it then replicating it on a ty 40w HOLY @@@@ TECS ARE FRAGILE, mk the 40ws unsealed now , ill power it up

[shifteh]

Tests are complete , 40w peltier will run with huge hole in side allowing air to enter btw one side's silicone is totally gone lawl

Wootness so all i have to do it seal the 320w up with epoxy just to be safe and vola

the only thing i can think of that might go Tupplez is without the seal it may poop itself under cold circumstances so when il get back ill leave the 40w running for a few hours


ill mix some more epoxy and seal the pelt some more any who people im off to teh city to meet's up with gf


nothing better than waking up to coffie and experiments

The seal is only to keep condensation from forming inside the TEC during operation. Seal it up good and it should be fine.

[shifteh]

thanks for the confirm on that

my next thought how this will screw up is how will a 50mm waterblock ACTIVELEY cool a copper 100mmx70mm and 8mm thick plate? 100m is for length for mounting

btw the pelts 62x62

[littleowl]

use RTV gasket sealer from auto parts store

[shifteh]

meh already got epoxy on it ,,,,,,,

how will a 50mm waterblock ACTIVELEY cool a copper 100mmx70mm and 8mm thick plate? with around 400w of heat?

[littleowl]

as glyth said in this or another thread the heat will go to the coldest spot to try and heat it up. If the copper is thick enough it will hold enough heat to not affect the tec's cold side and the waterblock will keep trying to cool the hot plate. This can take a lot of figuring to get it right. I was more guessing on the thickness of the plate based on what I have done in the past.

This is pretty neat and may even pertain to your problem

would the older 6002 blocks be large enough???


if you can find one they are 63.5mm square

[littleowl]

the 6002 blocks are only 50mm X 50mm

I have 2 of them.

Swifttech seems to disagree http://www.swiftnets.com/products/mcw6002.asp#

Compatibility and upgradeability: one size fits all

The 2.5" x 2.5" form factor enables the same block to be used with all current microprocessors in the Desktop and Server markets, including upcoming products expected to be released by major OEM's within the next 12 months.
The inlet and outlet are ridged to provide superior sealing with hose clamp fittings.
In many cases, the same block can be reused with different classes of processors, by simply swapping retainer plates, thus reducing the cost of ownership.

It depends on what block you get. there are 3 different makes of the 6002
There is the one with the raised side that will only hold 50mm and that is cutting it very close and there is the flat bottom that can hold a 62mm but they don't cool the hole tec. The outside of the tec is on the casing of the block. If you like I will put a 50mm tec on them both and take a nice pic for you to see. I have 2 of the most common 6002 blocks. or you can just do some searching on here and you will see lots of pic from my 3200x2 chip.

Cool

[littleowl]

here are pics of The MCW6002-A

The only one you will find without the rise in it is the 3/8" top. so your hole loop will have to have 3/8" tubing.

[iboomalot]

I don't have my MCW6002-64 block anymore but I don't think it had the step like you older old shown there.

I will hunt around for a AMD64 block which I believe is totally flat and 2.5" by 2.5" and should work great for your larger TEC

found a pic http://www.petrastechshop.com/swmccocpuwa1.html


oh ya it has 1/2" barbs too

[littleowl]

yeah the MCW6002-64 is flat and has 1/2" barbs but you cant buy them anymore. and the mcw6002-B (3/8fittings) also is flat but you cant buy them either. you have to watch when buying one most people use a standard image and then end up sending you the A block if they tell you it is a 6002

[shifteh]

I have a quote on the copper here it is

100x70x3.0mm h/h copper plate @ $12.00 ea plus GST
100x70x5.0mm h/h copper plate @ $17.00 ea plus GST
100x70x6.0mm h/h copper plate @ $21.00 ea plus GST
$55.00 plus GST cutting and freight
please allow 5-7 working days delivery

i was thinking 3mm on the CPU side and 6 on the hot side ???

i added the extra like 40mm for bolt holes


What u guys think

[shifteh]

Oh and the epoxy seems to have worked , im in the prosess of aquiring appropriate heatsinks to test it

[shifteh]

WOots i has a n95 ,Heres some photos to look at here u can see the damage and my effort to repair it

[shifteh]

Well i put it between 2 heatsinks and powerd it on and it looks like its operational

Here's some pics

[shifteh]

Jesus ,,, N95 Cam Rules!

Anyway It hit 15 amps (+/- 5) at around 11v

so its working
DDDDD:

lol sorry for teh massive pics ><

thats my pc
dont mind my room its more of a lab

[repsol_23]

How were your results? Was it about what you expected? When I started my endeavours into using tec cooling it took quite some time for me to realize that my efforts wouldn't produce the results I really was expecting! Then again I was looking for subzero even under full loads.

[shifteh]

This test was just to test if it was working

Im in the prosess of obtaining 2 copper sheets , one 3mm and the other 6mm 3mm for colde and 6 for hot. ive got the supplyer just need the cash

will keep u guys updated on developments
