A New Design Need Opinions
 
http://www.zmoz.com/pics/paulforsman3.jpg

This design was made by JFetting and I consulted a friend doing a degree in Mechanical Fluids.

Any comments are welcome
Machinist told me $150 :shrug: :shrug: :cry:

I don't think to many people have been here today. Usually slow on Saturdays. ;)

Anyway looks like a interesting project. Needs work though. Not worth milling as is IMO.

Looks interesting, i would love to get my hands on a WB like that. :drool: The performance would probably awesome on a WB like that. If you follow through on the design, well good luck.

[WFT?]Oh no!, a psychic troll!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: ...[/WTF?] :p


What is the circle around the radius bit for?. It'll defeat itself if it's to prevent flow from going straight to the exit barb. cause it'll just flow to the outlet in the circle. A radial design needs a 'radial' exit waterpath...

Thats what the machinist told me, the center circle around the radius bit will interfer with flow.

What are your suggestions Jaydee to improve the design?

Saw you on NM forums. Where are you going to be making it? I'm also from malta.

I have found 2 engineering shops willing to make a prototype from aluminiun

Located in Kordin Industrial Estate ;)

One suggestion I have to you is to make the fins connected to the centre. That way they should pick up more heat. But that way you'll be sacrificing flow.

Have you got some dimensions? I think the outhermost fins are superfluous (not necessary).

I think 2 outlets will be the least you should have on this design.

Just remembering now, you once sent me an email regarding tubing and where to buy it. :)

Now there's a design that looks familisr ;)

The outer wall doesn't distribute the flow evenly, plus it's an added restriction. You ought to open it up, or drop it alltogether.

Tacops 05-18-2003 10:31 AM

I have a dwg file with all dimensions, if you're interested i can email it to you.

Yes the design is very similar to yours, ive been following the radius waterblock thread for quite a long time now.

Hara :evilaugh: i think you choose your nick with a lot of care :dome:

I am using clearflex60 now in my setup altough i bought some tygon and gave it to a friend
