Rear = (1) Fan Blowing Out = 1 x 100% EF Out Side = (3) Radiator Fans Blowing Out = 3 fans = 3.0 EF Outįront = (3) Fans Blowing In w/ Filters = 3 fans x 80% = 2.4 EF Inīottom = (3) Fans Blowing in w/ Filters 3 fans x 80% = 2.4 EF In Top = (3) Radiator Fans Blowing Out = 3 fans = 3.0 EF Out
Let's call an unrestricted fan (rear) = 1 "Equivalent Fan" (EF) Lets say your anal about cleaning and use 80% which can range up to 30% when "moderately clogged with dust. We 'll assume low - medium fpi rads with an insignificant reduction in air flow.Ĭ) Filters have a very significant effect on air flow. The realty is you will see about 38 - 42 cfm at about 0.6 SPī) Radiator have a varying effect on air flow depending on the density of the fins. is this correctĪ) The specs you see on the web site. why the people who design, market, support and try to sell these products advise their customers to install fane]s this way ? Is it really feasible that they don't want to show their products in the best possible light ? The automatic reaction to this statement well what about all the other stuff, why make the other components hotter ?Ī) if you are concerned about this products, why don't they have water blocks on them ?ī) Which components are we concerned about ? I see nothing in MoBo (30 watts), RAM (5 watts), HD (10 watts), whatever manuals about the dangers / performance impacts of 28C air. I just picked those numbers to make the math easy, but no matter what happens, inside case air will always be warmer than outside air. So 23C air will remove 2 x as much heat from the loop as inside the case air. This is simple math:įans move air thru the radiation and the rate of heat removal is proportional to Delta T so what does the math tell us ? while there is a gentle rise in an indisturbed environment, that axiom does not apply when the air in your case is doing a 100% changeover every 0.5 to 1.5 seconds. Yes you have to let go of that day in 8th grade earth science when we were by chance paying attention when teacher taught us "hot air rises". The second law is "radiator fans always blow in.
aka eliminate 99% of CLCs from consideration.
The 1st law of water cooling is "never mix metals".
