Yes, an ammeter *should* be able to measure the current in an AC wave, even if it's clipped.
I think it would be easier to generate the heat from a number of power resistors, powered by a PSU. |

We're talking a couple of kilowatts here. Actually, a simulation of the heat generated by 9 comps.

Maybe dual cpus....
Maybe we'll cool the psu... Better safe than sorry |

Heatload will be only simulated. A rough estimation of ten computers will be about 1-2 KW. Believe me, we're working on it.

Find out what the heat output is of the Opteron. Noramally large servers are dually's so you can figure 18 CPU's. If you know what the wattage output of those are then you can add up the watts and that will give you a number to shoot for. Example: "Our experiement will be based on 9 Opteron dual Servers that will total 18 Opteron CPU's running at X.Xmhz for a total of X amount of watt output. We are simulating the the wattage out put by bla bla bla... This experiment's data will be compiled for the CPU's ONLY. Bla bla bla..." That way people will have some clue WTF you doing. |

That can only be done after the maximum heat dissipation of the bong can be determined, which can only be done after the bong is constructed. On a side note, What is better, a 30cm diameter 1.5m bong or 4 120mm diameter 2m bongs in parallel?

In reality you would be designing a cooling system around either a system already in place or a system that will be built and you will have no control over what is being used as that is set by whatever the company needs. They are not going to work around your system, you have to work around theirs! But whatever. Don't know about which would be better for the bongs. I would bet on the 4 smaller ones if the pump can handle it. I think you would loose efficency with one big one. Tough call though. |

hmmm
just to pipe in my noob 2 cents.....look into a radiator setup from a newer street bike...just a thought

Update: Material for the bong should be with us this week. We have also decided the waterblock to use (squirrel).
A question: Does battery effect occur when mixing copper with steel? |

That's right, don't care if it rusts but...will it f- up the wb?

Budget is tight :shrug:
What else could we possibly do? |

It has been decided to use 4 bongs, 125mm in diameter and 2m tall each, maybe a bit taller!
do you think that these are enough to cool 2kw of heat dissipated. For now forget all the other souces of heat like nb, ram etc. we will consider to water cool the psu but are 4 bongs of that dimentions enough for that amount of energy? |

Next, WTF is up with using steel in a watercooling system? You don't care if it rusts? So you don't care where that rust ends up in the system and what harm the rust will do to everything? Jesus ****ing christ! Next, WTF are you guys thinking with these bongs? Why have you guys not done some calculations or at least some reasearch on what you need? It shouldn't be that hard to figure it out. So far all I got from you guys is you have yours heads up your ass and you want the people of this forum to figure out for you what to do. :shrug: It is your project, lay out what you want to accomplish. So far all I seen is a bunch of aimless BS thoughts of what your really trying to do. I highly suggest you get your shit together, make a plan of EXACTLY what you intend to do, organize it, and present it in a new thread. State exactly what you are trying to do, what you plan on using, how you plan to set up every part (diagrams would be usefull), and what you have so far. Draw us a diagram of how you intend to hook this stuff up (PLEASE). Eveytime I think I have what your doing figured out you throw some new stupid curve in it like using the squirrel block. I am totally confused now (again). Sorry if this seemed harsh. |

No, you didn't seem harsh at all, discipline is good.
Anyway, the squirrel block is for the cpu. The steel is for making the temporary heat simulator. As it is easy to weld together, bend and cheap. The heat source will be VARIABLE. Next, i'm sorry if we've not been clear here but when I find some time i'll hook up the diagrams and pics of what we've got so far (very little). |

jaydee116, we are going to use the squirrel wb because besides the simulation, we are going to include a computer, thats why in the begining we said that we have only one pc and we are going to simulate the heat source emitted by the other nine computers.
I would very like to post a picture on how we are going to simulate the heat load, but it is quit difficult to draw, but anyway, hara or me will try to post one. We asked if steel caused battrey effect because be were going to use a steel box to enclose the heat sources there, I hope that we will manage to find 300W or something of the sort heat elements. If possible, these elements will be welded with the box. Hope that this can clear your ideas. Sorry if we made you angry, but you had all rights to be |
