Hi
I was gonna make my own thread, but this is OK too.
This my new design I'm working on, it takes totaly different way than most other blocks, the idea came from discussion on oc.forum :
http://forum.oc-forums.com/vb/showth...hreadid=101864 this is a must read interesting in block design, and my idea incorporate as much as possible from heat transfer theory.
So here it is:
And the hardest part already made
I hope I can have this block made in 1week, so I can test it, the theory behind this design is only small effective area for heat transfer is used, water flow is accelerated through the chanells with cross section a little smaller then inlet and then grows back when going out to reduce preasure drops, water only moves through the chanells, where the cross section is constant, so velocity also stayed constant. And last but not least overall surface area is also a lot bigger then with one chanell of the same cross area.
So block should be great in theory, and I'll know very soon how it's in real life.
