What is the thermal conductivity and thermal capacity of H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide), as compared to H2O (Dihydrogen Monoxide, or water)?

At least it will be very clean, and make a very cool fizzling sound

Exactly my thoughts. Hydrogen peroxide is very unstable.

Hydrogen Peroxide is very reactive and would probably be a major leak problem waiting to happen.

Or if you are bored you could just try this

i don't see why it would decompose....

Hydrogen Peroxide will split to oxygen and water itself, allthough a catalyst (or an enzyme such as catalase found in animal liver) will greatly increase the rate of decomposure.
As you can see from the graph that was posted, the heat capacity of Hydrogen Peroxide decreases as concentration increases. Thus its heat capacity is lower than that of a comparable volume of water.
Also, from this graph:
Hydrogen Peroxide has a negative dH of decomposition so it will produce heat when it decomposes!!

yes it is very unstable and when mixed with things like i dont know acetone for example, can make some pretty bad stuff

Acetone peroxide would have made a decent military explosive if not for its instability. It can not be stressed enough how unstable and dangerous acetone peroxide is. As instability goes this is among the most unstable of other explosives here.
off some website i found, but from this perspective keep it away from stuff like acetone and any acids in general

A mixture of Acetone, Hydrogen Peroxide, and Sulfuric Acid makes a liquid propellant that is very powerful, allow it to crystalize, powder it and that you have something that the military deems worthy of their improvised munitions handbook.

Acetone Peroxide is NOT Hydrogen Peroxide.
I never said I was going to use it in a cooling system. I was going to try to make a cooling system compatible with it. Right now, I have 2 cups of H2O2, one with a peice of copper in it, and one with a peice of aluminum foil. No degratory effects yet....
Of course, I might just pump gaseous hydrogen thru my system, it has a good thermal conductivity... though a small spark...
