sorry linus but the info on the how the coller works is wrong. what you call a sensig bulb is the filter that removes moisture from the refrigerent. and the cappeleri piping is the expansion valve that regulats the refrigerasjon. the reduksjon in the inner diameter is what creats a reduksjen in the boiling point.

It really is, and that's coming from a zoomer

[@TheDude-fy5cm]

As a certified refrigeration technician. The "capillary coil" is actually called a capillary tube and that is acting as the metering device to feed refrigerant at a constant rate. The refrigerant is still in a liquid phase after the capillary tube and it becomes vapor when heat is absorbed from the water. If no heat is absorbed you will have liquid feedback to the compressor which will kill a compressor. Loved the video, just figured I'd chime in

[@MATT.04]

Im so surprised, this build is actually decent. Somewhere in the beginning it looked like they were going full jank like usually. But this actually turned out as something you could sort of actually use

[@MATT.04]

​​@@gags730i wasn't talking about the cooler itself being janky. I was talking about the entire build in general. Usually the concept is, alex "prepared" some cooling project, then alex and linus build and a dozen of things go wrong, which they then fix with duct tape and ty-wrap kinda solutions that sort of work. And the final thing is just a heap of garbage that needs lots of adjustments and like doesn't really reliably run at all, but only works because like 3 skilled technicians are paying constant attention to things. This project looked like it headed that way, but they actually managed to create a decent thing

@@gags730 ​i think the reason for this jank has mostly to do with time. They take a certain amount of time to shoot the project. And then, when faced with problems, they decide to go for the quick and simple solution, rather than a proper one. Which makes sense as they tend to take the whole thing apart as soon as the video is done anyway. The goal is to showcase concepts and crazy theoretical ideas, and how they could be made practical, and how they would perform. Their goal is not to build a reliable system that's properly built. They are doing an experiment, not building professional grade infrastructure

They already have a controller installed. It uses pressure to regulate temperature and I would argue that they do not need any more equipment to set that chiller to a specific temperature range using cut out pressure(the COP they were talking about) and the CIP(cut in pressure) that they never discovered on this unit.

the UART input is kinda cool. you can make a serial port control that (many boards still have a serial header, at least all my b550s still do) that means you could in theory hook this into something like AI suite or a similar software assuming you can make a translation layer and said software has an api available

[@resneptacle]

Or use any cheap FTDI if no serial headers are available

[@TehFreek]

It wouldn't use a bare serial header though, since those use RS-232 voltage levels and UART connections usually run at 3.3 or 5V.

[@jomeyqmalone]

I'm pretty sure those Intel Cryo Coolers used UART with usb to serial. Wonder if you could steal the control board out of one of those (though the software might need some tweaking to a accept phase change cooler instead of a TEC) Edit: yup, it's a Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART interface in the cryo coolers

[@IOUaUsername]

You could just program an Arduino or Rpi Pico to listen to a fan PWM header on the motherboard and control the cooler accordingly. That way it works in any OS but you can also tune the cooling curve in software.

COP stands for Coefficient of Performance and is a coefficient used in heatpumps (the part of a HVAC that warms your house). COP is the fraction of usable heat output devided by the electric energy spend. When the heatpump is run in reverse (both in thermodynamic and actual meaning) it becomes a refrigorator. Too differenciate between heating and cooling sometimes the EER (Energy Efficiency Ratio) is used which is basically the same as the COP, exept it is the fraction of absorbed heat (or provided cooling) by the electric power consumption. Tho, it is very wierd, that the COP is used as a input to regulate performance. The COP is usually used to inform about the efficiency and is determined by the exact operation point AND surrounding conditions, like ambiant temperature, temperature of hot side, ...

This "Bulb" is the filter/dryer and the capillartube is the expansion "valve". And if you run a plate heatexchanger wis simple water and let the evaporation temperature drop below 0°C, there is a serious chance to cause fatal damage to it.

Cop is cut out pressure and cip is cut in pressure, look at the PT chart for R134a to find your temperatures you want the chiller to run at, the further the spread you can get will keep your chiller from cutting in and out during use as the pressures satisfy. Cut out=turn off cut in= turn on

[@adamhorn8414]

You can absolutely properly maintain that chiller with just pressure readings just see as I mentioned above and on that controller you probably hold both up and down buttons to change to CIP from COP and the pressure ranges that correlate with your temperature parameters on the PT chart of the refrigerant you are using should be your COP and CIP

[@adamhorn8414]

Lol I loved the zoomer retention gameplay, but mostly bc I already know how heat pumps work in great detail. So it was a welcome meme and actually useful. I say use it more.

I love how you spent all that time explaining the device in the beginning, when you could have just said that it is essentially just a mini A/C unit.

Should definitely add the GPU to the loop and maybe a normal radiator before the chiller to help dump some of the heat.
