CPU Cooling with BOILING LIQUID 🔥🔥 

Justin Roiland's voice

yeah never understood this when my headphones are noise cancelling, running dead by daylight with my fans at 100% using msi afterburner, i still cant hear them at all and theres 8-10 of them in my case

I just used all Noctua fans and it got me close enough. Those things are insane

Indeed! It was quite painful for me to migrate from my gorgeous fanless machine to a laptop...

I love this channel for stuff like this.

yeah, that was what I was thinking when I saw him having the rad on the box tilted with the tubes up. Linus would get more cooled liquid get to the heatsink, if he tilted it the other way as you say in BTW. as he has it a lot of cooled liquid stays in the rad and only a small amount circulates, and it does not get enough time to cool down enough. some basic physics classes could be useful for Linus :)

i have done the same thing with 3m's submersion liquid drain out your radiator add the 3m liquid start the pump up to get the sir out of the lines you want to tryed the system full with 3m liquid got poor performance but if you fill up just the lines and leave the radiator 1/2 full wow its night and day difference this is with no pump circulating the liquid .

Except the early Ford engineers understood that return path must be lower than supply to the condenser....

Its a very cool concept, the pressure or lack there of inside the tubes makes a huge difference.

Why stop at Ethanol? Acetone, for better fireballs! Pentane! Isoprene, for fireballs on mere contact with air! Chloroform, for obvious reasons! Diethyl Ether, for that genuine dentist experience! Don't you want your experimental coolers to also be fun when they go wrong? On a more serious note, it's pretty difficult to ignite ethanol in this use, it is actually remarkably safe. Like if you had an open flame inside your cooling loop, for sure you'd set it alight, but i'd say you have bigger issues if you do? And it's just a wee little fireball, blink and you'll miss it. And by the way, i'm sure someone will comment ohnoes acetone & plastic tubing, well don't use polycarbonate hardlines - polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamides, siloxane, plenty of polymers are completely immune to acetone, and usually to an extent to other solvents too. What it really is? Fluorinated ketone, must be.

@@SianaGearz ok

@@SianaGearz Looking at stable boiling at about 66 C when in BIOS with no load the chemist in me immediately concluded that the liquid inside is methanol (boils at 64.5 C at atmospheric pressure)... It's cheaper than any of the fluorinated stuff and has much better heat of vaporization.

stolen comment

RaphYkun Finally someone who understand what convection is and how it works. :) you are very much correct. Linus failed because of him holding the radiator in the wrong orientation. Heat rises, cold sinks. :) water always tries to be closest possible to +4 degrees Celsius on the bottom. :) hence the water will flow.

That was exactly what I was thinking. Caught myself tilting my head whenever the wrong side of the raditor was up. :D I am curious how practicable this concept will be in the future. Hope it will be, because I like silent PCs.

You, and everyone else with basic understanding on how gravity work...

he is usually doing shit tono of DIY stuff, why he didnt use plywood frame to hold radiator nad mother board right way? or use anthony to hold it for him, for hours of testing and benchmarks...

I think he is just not used to gravity. He drops things all the time too

Would love to see this retested as you said. I was thinking the exact same thing.

Really, what this needs is a crossflow radiator so the vapour line enters at the top, and as it condenses, it runs down to the bottom of the rad, and returns to the block as liquid. I've experimented with a similar unwicked heatpipe in the past, but mine just used a large hose, instead of a proper circuit with a return. It worked well to a point, but because there was no force to the flow putting liquid back onto the block, it would eventually cross a threshold where there was a continuous bubble, and the cooling mostly stopped.

@komulista as a scientist i felt bad for the engineer who made this. Linus could at least have had enough respect to read a little bit, the lack of that small effort just makes me sad.

I'm suspicious about the radiator, you'd think this thing would need as special radiator, this radiator looks like a plain old forced liquid radiator.

@@tituskriswanto5110 and thats the game basically over

I was in stitches when he kept his radiator flat.

YES

I don't get it, should the fan face forward?

@@Lindaine It's more to do with water flow rather that the direction of the fan.

Actually if you just put the lower end of the returning tube under the heatsource, it won't lead vapor out as bubbles travel upwards in the liquid. While the vapor tube should have a small protruding edge into the radiator that elevates the end of the tube above the sinking port (upper end of the returning tube), therefore prevents liquid flowing back. The main problem with this cooler is the pressure probably isn't lowered enough in the system to get the water boil at a significantly lower level than at atmospheric circumstances. And that type of radiator was designed with pressurized water in mind. Those flat liquid channels don't really clean up due to the capillary effect keeps some liquid in them further reducing that small contact surface the vapor could condensate on. I tried this exact method before, but with better tubing and ethanol coolant (has much lower boiling point, doesn't corrode metals and prevents any life form from growing in the loop), but wasn't really impressed with the results. Although I didn't give up the project completely as I'm working on a different radiator design.

@LeftBrainChoice That's not air. And he can't open the circuit, it came sealed. Even if he could, that doesn't matter because the circulation mechanism of the coolant depends on the bubbling of it.

Exactly. Holding the radiator flat had it trying to work both ways in both tubes, and not giving the liquid the full loop of the radiator to cool down. On it's side with the hot 'air' side going in the top of the radiator with the cold 'water' side down should improve it a bit more.

@LeftBrainChoice it's a passive phase change cooler using water.

I was just gonna say the same thing, I've seen stationary engines cooled using this method and it works great when properly setup

Ah thanks for pointing that out! Was wondering about that. Another question - should this thing be 100% filled with water to work optimally? I mean, at some point the water inside will evaporate, right?

I'd say he owes me a couple references now.

I'll just add a quick comment on that; all of the orientations except the best one were used. The skinny pipe should be at the bottom of the resivoir, and the fat at the top, not at the same level; that will let the vapor-side be vapor in the top, and liquid side mostly liquid... in the end the pressure is 99% the same throughout the system so I'm not sure how you'd ever 100% get it to 'flow'. Put the radiator on its side, with the pipes one above another; a direction that it would like never be mounted in a case.

@@3zdayz That is exactly what I was thinking would be the best orientation. So this cooler could be a bit better but it would have to be in a custom case or perhaps a wall mount, like, situation.

To quote Meek Mill: “There’s levels to this shit”

great looking response, until you spelled subatmospheric with an f :P

Should’ve had the radiator sideways like in the picture@ 12:55

some early ford motor car company / usa made models are that way or just a rad fan and no belt driven pump

ps. its a crapy idea for a ice engine as it doesn't let you make big horsepower ( without damaging it ) but it does have quicker warm up times to normal operating temperatures

@@richardprice5978 Yeah... back then, the engines looked more like modified steam cylinders.... cars where nothing more than just 2 steel beams and some wooden cladding...

Wouldn't really matter. This is phase change, not really convection. If you just had to have a continuous flow, a one way valve would take care of that.

It actually does matter. For passive systems, having the radiator in a downflow configuration works better since that is the natural flow path for the fluid that is being cooled. Further both conduction and convection are involved. Conduction is the primary mechanism getting the energy from the processor into the fluid and convection is the primary mechanism cooling it back off in the radiator. In the radiator, the tubes near the entry of the hot fluid may be multiphase, but if the radiator is effective, the tubes near the outlet should be solid liquid. Interestingly, you could easily do this with water if you fill the system, then lower the pressure in the system with a vacuum pump. Lower pressure drops the boiling temp of water. With the right combination of temp and pressure, you can actually make water exist in all three states simultaneously. It's the critical point of water. A one way valve would most likely prevent the system from operating. Yes, with the passive systems you have flow, but the only head pressure developed will be the velocity pressure generated from the momentum of the fluid itself. A one way valve, regardless of the type, will induce a pressure drop to great for the passive systems to overcome and thus flow will stop. Changes in pressure are what generate flow.

Thank you. I thought i was the only one who saw that.

there is case that is mostly heatsink

that is a spectacular system build

That uses some Notec fluid with boiling point around 30 i think.

I would think acetone with its 56C boiling point would do quite well at a 50% fill (as it boils, the pressure will increase and I'd guess it'll stabilize at about a 70C boiling point when at full tilt). Just have to ensure the plastic tubes are compatible and wont get eaten, and that everything is positioned properly (unlike Linus in this video lmao. He almost hit it at the very end when he got the radiator tilt correct, but he still missed the positioning in relation to the CPU)

@@nickopedia5669 Acetone tends to destroy pretty-much everything other than metals, especially at higher temps.

@@RexinOridle according to plastics international, ECTFE, Flourosin, PTFE, PPS, Polypropelyne, HDPE, and nylon 6/6 all get and A grade for chemical resistance to acetone. We can pretty much ignore all the flouromers due to how absurdly expensive they are, but HDPE looks the most promising, as does PP, PPS, and Nylon 6/6 (although due to a lesser extent because of their higher absorption rates meaning the acetone may need to be added every 2-3 years instead of maybe 5-6 years) Another nice thing is that HDPE tubing is a very readily available item from the hardware store, and although not super flexible (unless you can find bellows-style hoses like in the video), it is easy to form with a heatgun to do a "hardline" style setup.

And crap now that I've done all this research I'm seriously tempted to do this to the old 160 watt LGA775 workstation. The only issues I can think of is that my radiator (an old heater core off a car) has unknown plastic end tanks, and making a new non-acrylic top plate for the water block. (that part is easy enough on the CNC machine, but my surface finishes have to be really good to seal to the copper base plate with the weak clamping force that the 4 small bolts can provide).

Derba8er has a few videos using some kind of 3M Novec fluid with a boiling point of 61C. There's even one where he dunks an entire laptop in a bucket of it - while powered on - (but because there's nowhere for the gas to go, results sucked)

you need radiator to be completed vacumed and 100% no air while you got cooling liquid that got so low boiling point to be working at best efficiency i think (likes copper heat pipe) @bennyg

@@kopai555 that could make a big difference really, by decreasing pressure the boiling point will become lower, helps when idling; and while boiling it will help maintain a much healthier pressure inside since no one would like that mysterious liquid blown out.

@@kian8382 Yup exactly and if you got big fin/heatsink to remove heat out those vapor will condense to liquid faster

@@kian8382 doesn't increasing pressure lower the boiling point?

doesn't look like it. 3M has about 55degC boiling point but the CPU stays between 68 and 100+ degC, plus those Novec grade A-holes made it incredibly hard to get the juice in anything less than bulk (or maybe that's just in Europe) It looks more like an alcohol. Could also be water at a reduced pressure as well but those hoses look too flimsy for negative pressure fluids. Trust me, I've had the idea ever since I saw Novec submerged server racks and I've researched the possibility

@@victorunbea8451 Well, there are different types of novec, usually the label says NOVEC-XXXX with 4 numbers at the end. Different novecs have different boiling points, and it could even be a mixture. Apart from this NOVEC is just a brand name, 3M is not the only company to sell this molecule. And since it's convined as soon as it starts boiling the pressure increases, and it takes the boiling point with it. But still my intuition tells me it's something way cheaper than novec that's inside that loop. Obviously Linus didn't do any tests to let us guess what's in there, like squeezing the line so that we can see how flimsy it actually is. If it was a line that you can't squeeze down at all no matter what temperature it's at, then it would be capable of holding a vacuum for example.
