Nanofluid tested with three different temperatures on a Q6600

Again, I'm not arguing the validity of this particular fluid and it's value as a LC coolant. I'm just saying that abrasion isn't an issue.

If I thought it was worth testing and using, I would have done so when the chance was offered to me. But my concerns wern't centered on abrasion issues. As far as the testing I've seen, the value isn't there just as with any coolant other than distilled water.

ability for water to carry more heat.

Ability to cheat the system by using a different medium to more efficiently transfer heat from one end to the other.

I really want this kind of coolant... however... my friend says go gallium then.

Do systems typically last long enough for damage to be done by nanofluids? Seriously, if you're using the same WC hardware after 10 years of use... something isn't right (like those people who still bring Windows 98 machines into my shop).

I can understand the effects of it all... but what is the timeline for damage to be noticable and affect performance?

brings us back to the first page... what is the particle causing impact, and how much pressure is your system holding...

let me ask an RD-30 owner, after reading this page, are you willing to drop your 275 dollar pump package on the coolant without knowing what particle it is?

Or even more fear anyone thinking of using it in a DDC-2 which are prone to dying for no reason?
