Kabrute Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 I've got a limited number of weeziers on this seed so I'm thinking of using one set of coolers with weezies to cool a box of coolers instead of my current method. The idea is that if I know the dials to tune my machine to, I could set it, then close seal it in, fill it with hydrogen and start the outer cooler. If I placed my cold coil across the top and build with airflow/mesh floors it should drop cold to the floor. Wrap it all in abys and it should be solid. Right?

Coolthulhu Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 It could work, though you could easily improve it. Hydrogen doesn't carry a lot of heat and is inferior to polluted water cooling at temperatures between -14C and 120C. If you don't need to supercool the coolers, you're better off with water cooling, as it is about 3 times more power-efficient and each packet carries 30 times more heat which makes large radiators work much better. A big bonus of polluted water cooling is that you can use polluted water from cooled natgas and petroleum generators, then dump the now-hot water into fertilizer makers or sieves.

FIXBUGFIXBUGFIX Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Both regulator and aquatuner generate heat which exactly equals to the heat removed from the gas/liquid. If the same kind of gas is input to regulators, a box of coolers are needed to cool another box of coolers. It's just a waste of electricity.

Drip cooling or heat deletion, no matter how you call it. It is almost impossible to be prevented in gas and liquid. Therefore, regulator and aquatuner can cool themselves, but it does not mean that heat generation is less than the heat removed from the gas/liquid.

Kabrute Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share Posted December 27, 2017 Those factors aside, you could use one set of coolers with the weezies, cooling the rest of the coolers. Under the setups I run its an extra 240 watt thump sometimes, to more efficiently control the cooling effect of the weezies, Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/85815-coolers-cooling-coolers/#findComment-987753 Share on other sites More sharing options...
