But I guess they also have a valid point in representing the general consumer and pc enthusiasts who have no idea and would just use the product as marketed. Whether they intended it or not, this video shows that it would have little or no performance improvements to using the graphene fluid over standard coolants in generic use case scenarios.

    3:55 Pro-Tip: When draining a closed liquid loop, open an air-intake near the top of the loop before opening the drain port. It'll drain faster, and flow more smoothly. By "more smoothly", I mean you will avoid the -glug glug glug- type of flow that causes the stream to alternate between gushing and dribbling as it allows air to enter through the same hole the liquid is trying to exit from.

    Yeah it turns out that thermal conductivity doesn't matter for a transfer fluid that much. The thermal conductivity mainly comes from the metal waterblock, which can be enlarged or shrunk quite easily to have better heat exchange with water. What is needed is thermal capacity in the water to soak up more heat, or a bigger pump. If you'd want any reasonable increase in performance and have thesame tubing and waterblock setup, you'd need to swap the liquid out to ammonia.

    Why ammonia? I mean, yea, if you turn the whole thing into a refrigeration cycle that would do, but as a liquid ammonia has about half of water's heat capacity. Actually, water is just about the best medium for heat transfer between 280 and 400-ish K you can find. Nothing (I know) beats its heat capacity. You're right in that a larger pump would likely help out more just because it helps with the temperature gradient in the block. However, I suspect the bottleneck in this particular system is the water/air transfer, mostly because it always is. In fact, the higher conductivity liquid would probably show the largest improvement in settings where the pump is severely undersized. Any flowing liquid will form what's referred to as a "boundary layer" on solid surfaces, which is essentially a stationary film that heat must pass through by conduction rather than convection. This boundary layer is thicker when the flow velocity is lower.

    A 1% graphene addition to cooling fluid increases thermal conductivity by 61% and reduces viscosity by 31%. Note: is really only useful at high flow rates to give benefits over other coolants as it absorbs/dissipates heat quicker, but has identical heat capacity. What we would have needed to see in this test, is a high-flow pump setup, as you don't get the max benefits until you hit around 6L/m flowrate to take advantage of the increased thermal conductivity of the fluid. In addition, you could probably use a single pass high flow radiator for increased performance with this fluid with its higher heat transfer rate, instead of the 2 pass rad installed.

    What did they say about the resistance across a little distance of coolant ? I would have thought graphene would act as wires if it really changed the water? I think its such a tiny amount added to make it go black,that the electrical conducivy didn't change much. The fluid will just be glycerine or something, which will just boost specific heat a bit... Or its the antifoaming agent only making a change?

    I regularly work with a variety of chemicals, including anti-foam. And the problem with anti-foam is it leaves behind a residue if you use too much of it, or when it dries, which would insulate the inner surface of your loop, preventing, or at least impeding thermal transfer. Your best bet is to simply design a loop that can be vented, and is properly configured to minimize foaming, which mainly just means there’s as little air as possible in the system.

    not really, this isnt the type of foaming they are meant to prevent, i made a post apart, the liquid is meant to prevent cavitation bubbles, these are bubbles that generate due to the drop in pressure in certain parts of the pump, they are an issue because when the pressure rises back up they will implode, and the incoming pressure of the liquid will be like the tiniest pistol shot ever, ohh so slightly eroding the surface in which the cavitation bubble had happened.

Maybe for the cavitation bubbles to form you would have to hit the top of the bottle (lightly) with a hammer. Like when you hit a glass bottle on the top and the bottom pops off due to cavitation. Imho still slightly easier than Alex's drill method.

    Okay, so I've worked with graphene liquids before and the reason why it foams is due to the dispersant and the stuff that keeps it in suspension. I doubt they have an anti foam agent in there as it would probably cause clumping and it to fall out of suspension. When we used it it would foam at even the slightest movement. Also you REALLY don't want this stuff on your skin, it's known to accumulate in the mitochondria of your cells, they don't currently know if that's bad, but everyone who takes an educated guess says it's bad.

Besides even AIO's have a problem with evaporation, so I wouldn't say it's a none issue even though the reservoir should mean it would take a long time for it to become an issue in an open loop. As for suspension I don't think just having the fluid circulating is any guarantee that there wont be deposits. Just look at all the opaque liquids available. It seems most of these has a problem with deposits building up over time. Now this is one thing that might be less of a problem with this new fluid as the graphene should be extremely light and the particles very small. That should mean thy will stay suspended for longer, but until it's tested we really don't know for sure.

Imagine for a moment coating the exterior surface of the fins on a standard air cooler in graphene. Even if that increased surface area, would that help heat conductivity? Obviously not.

  • @animefreak5757

    @animefreak5757

    2 жыл бұрын

    the issue is the temperature delta. In a car the coolant is around 100c (212f), and ambient air is going to be, let's say 25c (or 77f). That's a 75c (165f) difference between the coolant and the air you are trying to dissipate heat into. In a watercooled rig what's the delta between coolant temp and ambient? 10, may 15c (50-59f)? There's just not all that much improvement to be had from the coolant itself. Even differences in the radiator itself are going to be minimal with those kinds of delta numbers. I'm sure water wetter would help, but the difference it will make is going to be very minimal. If we want to see significantly lower core temps, we need to either improve the thermal conductance of the die itself, or go sub ambient.

    I didn't watch the vid, but there is a product called Water Wetter, for automobile cooling systems that actually does enhance cooling. A magazine test said 2 bottles, instead of the 1 recommend on the label, actually increased cooling. So, I bought a couple bottles and tried it. Sure enough my coolant temp dropped about 5C. During the summer, I ran mostly purified water with a couple bottles and it worked with typical coolant or plain water. I'm not sure how compatible it would be with pc liquid cooling parts and you'd have to refigure the rate of 2 bottles to 1 gallon of water for your reservoir, but the product did actually work.

    Graphene's hardness is pretty low so optimistically it won't grind up components, while graphene is electrically conductive it seems the suspension limits that to something similar to salty water or comparable cooling solutions. My only worry is it clogging up the impeller in the pump or the micro-fins in the cooling element since it seems to only barely be in suspension. A longer-term test would be great to see because it does look amazing even if you ignore the marginal cooling efficiency improvements.

    In my experience, greatest bottleneck in CPU cooling is the IHS/chip interface and IHS/coldplate interface. (Not only thermal conductivity but also contact area. Because of this with similar locked voltage 3970X is not as hot as 3950X, because it has much larger area compared to only twice the number of cores.) Maybe results on your GPU was a bit more different? But as the GPU watercooling is already very efficient at moving the heat as it is direct die cooling, it might not matter that much. If the bottleneck was the coolant's heat transfer speed than it might be worth it, but in case of typical watercooled PC it doesn't matter that much. It looks cool though. (If it is not prohibitedly expensive it could be popular with people who want black coolant.)

    When he said "you don't want bubbles forming on the microfins", well for that, where would the air come from? On the contrary you actually want surfactants (tensides) in your liquid that would break the surface tension and allow it to flow around the microfins better; but tensides are literally dish soap, so at the surface, they can tend to form air bubbles. I also think a small amount of surfactant can help remove the air better wherever it can be in the loop. Maybe the resulting foaming can be disconcerting, so maybe they added tensides to improve performance, and added anti foaming agents to then make it... not foam over in the reservoir and not look so scary.
