It's very pretty. However, I would recommend extending the fins around the first bend (assuming a center inlet) and over the core. That is where they will do the most good, IMO.

The stuff on the right(specialy single outer channel, and the 'semi circle' thing) is'nt doing anything really, also have the channel the same width as the in/outlet 'circle'. I think you'd be better of with a multichannel 'spiral', I'm not into spirals myself, I think Cathars got the right idea putting fins over the core area, it's wasted elsewhere IMO:shrug: .
Why the three holes in each corner?, thinking of making it a TEC block?, if so fins everywhere over the TEC area is the way... |

The 3 holes in each corner is not for TECs. The middle hole is for the Socket A's mounting holes, the 2 outer holes are for mounting the lexan on top of it. Any more comments? |

The only comment I can think of is that I dont think it's going to be too effective in cooling a CPU.
Lot's of hotspots in that design! Keep it up though......its bound to come to you |

Why different thickness fins?, I'd like to see some fins over the core too, and not so much 'bulk' around the inlet. By having twin paths for the water you're making a low restriction block, but you're not gaining anything velocity, unless you make the two paths added the same diametre as the tube bore. what kinda pump are you aiming at?.
I think it's a good improvement on the other though. I like 'compact' ... Are there any 'free' 3D modeling proggies out there?, that are'nt too large?(56K'er )... Last edited by MadDogMe; 10-24-2002 at 04:35 AM. |
