Anyone have experience using brine for sub-zero cooling ?

b r i n e, no "m"
A salt solution to lower the freezing point, but upon reflection glycol/alcohol is probably better. I need to do a bit of research on the coolant. I wish to use a recirculating chiller and run it at -20C, and my question should have been phrased differently. A medium sized refrigerated bath, plus a pump, can deliver 200W at -30C. Anyone tried it ? |

Hey there BillA.
Have you considered that you will create a very ionic solution using brine? That will tarnish your system before you can say, "BOO". Cheers Memphis |
