Default First waterblock sketch!

I have for some time thought about getting some watercooling
So, i thought about gettig a block made on a CNC drill..

Here is what i have so far


How do you think the design will work?
The channels are 2 mm wide.
Im thinking about a fitting in the middle and one in each end!

It'll work, but not sure how good. An issue I see is the enterance to the center channels is really small then gets big, there will be fast flow through the 2mm part then it'll slow down when the area doubles. Might kind of act like its jetting but Im not gonna count on it.

Constant flow area ie constant normal distance will help. Flow velocity should be constant to prevent losses.

Nah its not jetting.

... reminds me of Roscal's waterblock. you should try a few more channels, imo.
