Post Rad Chiller Concept

[Scarlet Infidel]

well here you run into the problem i ran into.

Did you factor the fact that it can take 350W of energy to change 1C in h2o?

That doesn't actually make any sense. 350W for how long to change what volume of water?

Edit: are you saying a system like mine is likely to use 350w to get water only 1c better than normal water cooling?

That's not what I'm saying at all. In the example above is was taking 100-150w to keep the water cooling a 200w load at 3-5c below ambient compared to straight water being 5-10c above ambient with the same size and noise constraints.

The above was just comparing how you cool the hot side of a chiller in my specific circumstances, not talking about the merits of a chiller on the whole which I believe can be done effectively and efficiently.
