That is pure gold.
Good work as always Bill.
My only concern lies with the "rating" chart at the end. I'm sure that some people will then run off and say that a Black Ice Xtreme is rated for 919W, therefore it's almost twice as good as the HE120.3, and firmly believe it.

A widespread confusion still exists on that, and the people will really get confused
Another factor that worries me, but now in the tests of the bill, they are the cooland flow rate used , a variation from 2 to 12 liters per minute generates a very calm situation of entrance in the cameras, generating very little turbulence and checking a homogeneous feeding of the flat tubes, very different situation when it is used above 20 or 30 liters per minute, in my opinion demanded for systems of high efficiency.
I spent a long time working the cameras of entrance of F2 for not losing efficiency due to turbulence generated in the feeding of the flats the on higher flow rates
If I lower to the flow rate of my closed system going by the rlww and for the f2 of 38 liters for minute for 12, the delta differences and of the temperature of the processor they will be very different than he suggests in your plane curves as approaches of 12 liters hour in the tests of the lrww
With relationship to the thermochill
Same type of construction of my old F1, they need fans with a lot of pressure to work appropriately, because they are very dense, among other more things.
Making a rude comparison, I have with two F1 in parallel, more area than the model 120,2 and much less restriction to the flow
using 4 fans of 120 x 38 mm 130 cfm, two in each rad and with 23 liters for minute of flow rate going by a mcw462-ut, I never got to dissipate the heat reviewed to the fluid so that he came back close the room temperature, using a tec of 226w generating heat, it is almost incredible that the model 120,2 gets to dissipate 400w using any fan
Only some differences....
thanks
