Lower-pressure Cathar block...
So I've decided to try my hand on this micro-channel thing... Sloppy work:
The channels are 1mm wide, probably wider...
I was supposed to optimize it for lower (NOT low) pressure pumps. I did the ff:
- More fins. They're now 20mm across, versus Cathar's 15mm. Total of 11 micro channels.
-Base is 3mm thick above the die, and roll down to 1mm at the edges, for a bit more "spreading" effect...
Did I do it wrong?
Now I'm thinking of sharpening (or at least rounding) the tips of the fins so that they can "slice" through water better, and consequently have more water impinging the bottom. What do you think?
EDIT: base thickness above die is 3mm
