just a quick update
oki well i think that im going to do my trial run this weekend now that everything has settled down i should have another set of fans for testing next week some 1900rpm deltas now and i think im going to use some yate low speeds for the lower rpm fans as they are pretty cheap

so now for the fan line up im going to use 3 different kinds of fans for each rad
3000rpm 38mm ultra kazes
1900rpm 25mm deltas
1200 rpm yates (probably 12v and 7v for ultra low speed tests should be around 600 rpm)

still too cold to paint so im just gonna run it in grey primer for now lol no biggie i like the industrial look anywho

oh yea and baby Ahri is still sleeping great probably until she starts teething.

Congrats on your little one. Its a great blessing.



Also,

Can't wait to see more updated pics and welcome back.

 

[wagex]

updates coming soon lots of progress today


the psi gauge shows the pressure between the pump and the radiator so we can have a base to compare restriction between radiators





the thermometer shows the delta T one probe in the res wich the water from the rad is going straight into and one in the middle of the bottom of the radiator where the fresh air is coming in.

killa watt shows how many watts are being pushed into the loop, ontop of the 50w pump which im going to figure out how much of that goes into the loop.

 

[Mandrake4565]

Holy water pump!

 

[wagex]

yes it turns my res into a torrent lol i have to keep it almost full else it churns up bubbles its alot louder than i thought it was going to be too lol its annoying.

 

[ssjwizard]

[wagex]
