What CPU? I thought this was a simulation. You shouldn't need a water block or 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.

Probably a bad idea. Use aluminum if copper isn't available. Steel is very very bad for something like this. How are you going to control the the voltage? You will need amp and volt reading to figure out the wattage. A dimmer switch should work but you will need some type of gauge to see what the amps and volts are.

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).

Even a drawing of what your thinking would be good. I do not see how any of this is going to fit together.
The water block has really got me thrown off. I do not see how that can be added in something like this. Not with ONE heat source. 2000watts should be enough to boil water instantly. That is why I recommended multiple heat sources to spread the load. I still do not see how your going to get away with 2000watts not only in one heat source but in one loop. :shrug:
