Oni Noob Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Hi Guys, I am planning to create a water cooler radiator using gas pipes. Inside that gas pipe would be my cold hydrogen flowing. I have a question though, if I lessen the amount of hydrogen I am flowing through my pipes would it affect the cooling effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhailRaptor Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 You should do it the other way. Pipe the liquid through the gas, instead of the gas through the liquid. The reason for this is that Gas Pipes have a very small capacity, while standing tiles of liquid have a large mass in them (increasing with depth). You'll end up trying to use 500 g of Hydrogen to cool 1000 kg of water. You'd need an absolutely massive and powerful cooling radiator to keep up with any significant input into the system. The better solution is to build a room, plastered with Tempshift Plates and filled with Hydrogen. Use Radiant Pipes to flow the Water through a radiator in the room.

Gurgel Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Yes. Not directly, but the hydrogen will heat up more and hence less temperature difference causing less cooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent tried the new pipes but ill try that. Thanks 35 minutes ago, PhailRaptor said: You should do it the other way. Pipe the liquid through the gas, instead of the gas through the liquid.

Do you have an existing design there maybe you could share it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hydrogen cools down the aquatuners, the aquatuners cool down the oxygen. This system allows you to pre-heat the hydrogen to 170c before running it into your hydrogens The first aquatuner heats the hydrogen up to 120c, this is to make it possible for the hydrogen to be stored without breaking the air pumps.
