Those of you with resoviors might be interested in this...I have seen a discussion on here reguarding evaporation cooling. Most being about large or bulky contraptions (I do not mean any disrespect to anyone I appreciate all that everyone attempts).

Anyhow...There would seem to be a way around these contraptions.

Anyone using a resovior will set their pump to collect the water off the bottom or near the bottom of the resovior. With this said.


What we want to do is create some bubbles (Foam).
The air from the Foam will not get into our lines as we Draw the water from the bottom.

Put some Liquid soap into your water(which should lower temps in itself)...Move your return line so that is sits an inch or so above the water line. This will create foam ontop of the water.

Position an 80mm fan to blow across the foam. As the bubbles POP they should release heat into the air.

Keep in mind...Only the bubbles that contact the surface of the water will do any good. So do not add too much soap and try Not to get a whole bunch of turbulence on top of the water as it will give you too much Foam.

Give it a go..it works.
