Mechanical Shearing ...Plus
Swampthing,
Mechanical shearing is when a pump actually will damage fluids. An example of this is many of the original heart pumps would be usually be some sort of spinning pump like a turbin pump but they would cause the red blood cells to actually bust. that's why they had to go to something like the Jarvic 7 heart pump. It put by bladder flexing. Some chemical fluids or products will rupture and cause a foaming effect i.e. margarine. Chemical bonds are being disturbed and broken. That's all mechanical shearing is.
Oh, 3M Fluorinert was developed many years ago for the Cray "super" computer systems. Those system were totally emersed systems. yeah, it's good stuff but it is really, really expensive. It seems a lot of people are talking about expense. Well, like I said before cool put what you want in your system I'm just looking at the big picture down the road when the big boys start playing the game like the IBMs, Apples etc. and they start using stuff like Fluid XP. We all know that the big boys are going to liquid cooling because the CPU's are getting so hot.
I'd like to throw out a question: If Fluid Xp has shown to be of high quality of performance and safety what would people, like yourselves, be willing to pay? 32oz being a quarter of a gallon. What size would be worth say 50 bucks?
