    sounds good gary, lemme know when you are done with this one so I can come take a peak at it myself
    It should be done in the next couple days. I have finished the evap testing. The smaller evap came through with flying colors. It went from 25C down to -54C in about 45 minutes. This thing is really kickin. Just some finishing detail work to do now.

    -54C and control settings, can;t ask for more than that !

    Have you considered having a test rig with a waterblock so you can actually fit to a cpu Gary, or are you not interested too much in that side ?

    Regards

    BTW, she eventually bottomed out at -56C.

    The reservoir holds about 45 ounces.

    Building the evap/res is the most difficult and expensive part. It is completely copper and all brazed.

    I am progressively miniaturizing the evap/res assemblies and will eventually reach a point where the efficiency is unacceptable. Thus far the evaps tested are very efficient, but I have some much smaller designs in the works. When I find the optimum size, I will market the evap/res assemblies for those who want to build their own chillers.

    Im waiting for them! Once again, very good work. So the res itself is coper? How does that work as far as keeping the coolant cold?

    It adds to the heat exchange. I don't think I want to get into the details. My competitors will just have to buy one and cut it open to see how I did it.

    I have been retired for about a year, and selling my books to supplement my income. Before that, I worked on refrigeration systems for over 35 years. So yes, it has been about a year since I have worked with the tools.

    Hey Gary,

    I have a power supply,waterblock, over 10 feet of tygon tubing and a pump I can donate to research..

    Maybe we could all pool together and build you a test rig. The only catch to it would be that you would have to put it together.

    What do you think, are you accepting the offer??
