I have tested the rig for a week now. No problems found as of yet. I am going to post decent pics along with current block's diagram in a day or two, after when I resolve a few minor issues.
Also, instruct me how to test this rig's performance. I have no clue where to start.
As for now what I did is: took a butane torch and heated the block with blue flame for few mins. In just 5mins there was so much condensation that I had to abort the test as water kept coming in the way. It was like a mini waterfall!
The fan was running on 5 volts and the reservoir temperature had slightly risen. I did not had a temperature gauge at that instance but before the butane heating, the reservoir was 'cool' and after 5 mins heating, ‘normal' and it remained constant. Thanks to good gifted temperature gauge (hand).
One more thing, I have noticed a green layer of liquid on top of the cutting oil. This is also present near the tips of the barbs. Algae?
