Hello All...I'm new here

How do I choose the components I need to make a Phase Change System...????

If I choose to use R50((methane) assuming it's easy to get) as a refrigerant,would I need to match it with a suitably rated compressor..?? What are the rules..?

Are all compressors the same..?? If I took one out of a fridge- flushed and cleaned the old refrigerant out- used it to build a phase change cpu cooler - can I then load it(system)with any refrigerant I want..??

It seems to me the temperature you get is dependant mainly on the type of refrigerant you use and the design of the evaporator head...As long as the system being built can handle the refrigerants reqirements you should reach the temp. it's rated for..!(true OR false) IS IT POSSIBLE TO REACH -100 C OR LOWER using R50:shrug:
