1st Phase Change Start...
 

Hey all, after talking with a buddy and the success of his phase-change setup, the challenge has now been set in my mind and I'm thinking about moving from my now tweaked Water setup, to Phase-Change... Could one or more of you Phase-Guru's help me out with a simple parts list I'll need? I'm not looking for super low temps, just something around Single-digit full loads on my XP 1600@1.814@1.792v (defualt setting) ~85W...

I few hours back, I scoped out a nice apartment size "micro" fridge and it should be running fine, I'm going to grab it up and check it, to see if it runs... So far I know that I'll need:

BTW-I'm just looking for a cheap setup, nothing super....

1)Compressor

2)Radiator/ (can I use a Heater core?)

3) 1/4-3/8" soft copper tubing ~ 15ft

4)AC thick rubber hose (Can I use some nylon reinforced Vinyl?)

5) Coolant (I'm going to be using propane in place of the freon)

6) INSULATION! Neophrene.... what works best?

...I'm getting the rest together later, thanks all!

Anyone know where I might find a place that has the specs for micro-fridge compressors? The one I have is a GE Model: SC2SK; Compressor- C-M30L2A, 01068 SY, High 235/140 lowside I'm not sure where to find info on the compressor itself?

Thanks :)

try scouring the GE website, its gotta be there somewhere :rolleyes:
