Hi
Mine next project - rather won't be boring like all 2 stagers- it'll be cooling chamber (to put inside mobo + all other stuff, except hdd and psu
) plus SS , all on one plate ...
Specs :
Compressor: two Danfoss SC18CL - one for airchiller, one for SS
Evap for SS: Steeper 40mm tall/42 mm diam., enclosure for all newest CPUs, 1.0 meter braided DN10 suction line (with
stainless steel mesh)
Evap for airchiller : Evaporator from split A/C unit
XV: captube 0.9 mm for SS, Alco TI-HW for airchiller
Condensor: two 1.9 kW + 254 mm fans
Refrigerants : R507 in both
Case : custom made, welded frame, custom perfored side panels, all powdercoated on black color, wheels.
Chamber :HARD moded Ladycook small fridge
Others: Control panel on top of chamber (switches for both SS and airchiller, switch for PC), Danfoss controller for airchiller, Frigomec 0.88l receiver.
Bone stock frigde ...brand new ....
Some reduction on parts used in frigde.
Mine new welding machine- MIG/MAG Esab C250 3ph .
Mine father helped me with welding a bit and later with grinding.
That was only 4 fun ...just a try on trash piece of metal.
Fridge got small accident and had must been painted ...so paint is fresh high gloss black acryl).
I decided to weld suction line holder for more safety.
Clear coat this time also.
First time I've must use ladder when I build cooling system.
First tests, temperature inside chamber without any fans mounted.
Here with two 120mm - nice gain.
I was pumping hot air inside chamber from hairdrier working at 1st speed and taking over 700W energy - during 30min test temperature moved from -31*C (I've wait long, for lowest temperature) till -10 C - thermal probe was mounted in piece of cooper put inside chamber. It's not final .
Some heavy piece of brass inside - that's tip from future owner of this unit to use big pieces of cooper (but I don't have it, only brass) as a "cold magazine" .
Probe inside small cooper piece (don't have bigger).
That's what we should say "ARCTIC FAN".
That's loadtest of SS loop - make -40C@260W but I don't think that's most important part of this unit.
Regards
Peter
