When you say to make them narrower but the same length, do you mean the diamond shaped pins or the ramps on the cover? The diamond shape greatly increases the flow velocity and mixing versus the hexagons, I did not like the hexagon idea but they thought it would make the CNC faster by allowing...
Figured out how to embed pictures, couldn't see the button. The CAD pics are for a new revision.
This is the cooling side
Here's the ramps on the cover
The current water channel
Yeah thanks, I don't know if it's laminar or turbulent as I'm not sure of the speed, that's something I gotta find out, and I'm using FloXpress in Solidworks which is only laminar. But you say if it's laminar it would help mixing, and that's the purpose of those diamond shaped ones, those are...
Here is a picture of the actual water cover and the turbulators.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=d86b5241-f65a-4f5b-a1e3-1377fcbe3ce3&file=0618151137a.jpg
Will creating turbulence in a water cooling chamber on the opposite side surface that you're trying to cool help with cooling at all? I mean on the cover of the water cooling chamber, opposite of the heat source. We have an IGBT that we want to water cool, and the chief wants to add turbulators...
