It can be seen behind the compressor by the evaporator (which is not in the tank, it's attached to the back panel) Btw, SMC (a competitor to Thermo Scientific) offers rack mount chillers up to 5kW and with the 0.1 degree tolerance.

That cooler we use for industrial applications haha! Linus, the Low T warning you can set in settings. Some lasers have a min temp around 5C for condensation issues. Also some of these coolers have a Modular speed pump. If not use a bypass (T connectors between the Inflow and Outflow with a valve so adjust flowrate and bypass the main circuit) on the circuit to lower the flow to the CPU so the water gets more time to take the heat away from the block. You can set your cooler really cold.. but if the water doesn't have time to collect the heat it is worthless.

Alex's PC cooling videos are some of my favorites, the fact that were halfway through the video and linus is asking "what even is this video" says it all.

Just a little tech tip guys. @2:55 I'm pretty sure evaporator is in the bottom right of the unit in the form of a plate type heat exchanger. The white box looks to just be a reservoir/buffer tank to limit short cycling to me. It also looks to be a fixed speed reciprocating compressor, with duty controlled by the little black mushroom shaped electronic expansion valve (by the heat exchanger). Still, looks like a nice bit of kit, with lots of potential for various applications!

I used to build these systems for a competitor to Thermo Scientific. The evaporator is a braze plate heat exchanger in the bottom right corner by the compressor. If they're claiming 0.1C accuracy, then they are probably using a hot gas bypass system that uses the compressor's hot gas discharge to balance the load and maintain pretty stable temperatures. The systems I worked on could maintain temp even with no heat load on the system. Pretty cool to see one of these get out into the wild.

Honestly at this point thats the bottleneck, doesn't matter how cold the get the collant if they simply can't transfer the heat fast enough off the cpu directly. They've reached the capacity the materials themselves ability to transfer heat. They may actually with their fancy new metal 3d printer be able to come up with something that could work, but I suspect it can't print in materials that would be better mediums for heat transfer. I did many years ago see a fully submerged pc setup, but I don't know if you could build such a thing for this, and even then I don't know if you'd still need to de-lid the cpu and if even doing so would damage it or if it could survive the submersion in that state.

@@Naturalhighz yes I know and I agreed, my thoughts was they'd need to make a custom fitting for that, but that comes with the complication that their metal 3d printer may not be able to use the materials ideal for it. You still end up with some solid metal between the water and the cpu, even if using a liquid metal medium between the cpu and the cooler itself, that solid metal replaces the lid as the hard cap (infact without seeing the materials used in the current cooler and the lid, it may already be the hard cap) . The only way around that would be running an entire liquid cooling setup full of the liquid metal and making a sealed enclosure around the cpu, but that comes with the seperate issue of ensuring your liquid metal is non-conductive of electricity, exceptionally conductive of heat, and not even slightly corrosive under high pressure, oh and cheap because your going to need several gallons of it.

The black "box"with 4 tubes isn't a evaporator, it's a heat exchanger between the liquid in the chiller and the liquid in the attached system. That's why the tank is so small. it holds just enough to compensate for expansion inside the system.

In the lab we use two of these to keep the -80C freezers cold. One takes the temp down to -30 and then the other takes it down to -80, two phase changers required to reach the final temp. Absolutely insane tech that is yet so simple.

You could use a heat exchanger between the cooler and a tank and pump that water. This is common in our industry. It's actually amazing to me you haven't already done it.

Should be an easily searchable tip if you want to see a demonstration. It's mostly useful for hard to access threads like something that is permanently mounted in an awkward spot, but honestly it helps even with completely loose fittings like you had here.

Maybe next time try a glycol pump from a kegarator or something like that ? You could be easily cold enough to be condensating ice around the pipes if you wanted... This would definitely work.. and you can find them pretty cheap

condensation would fry it

i build a device like this for my university graduation project... the goal was to have a lot of cooling but stable temp at the same time... back then invertor tech was not a thing so we used heater to stabilize the temperature... nowadays you only need an invertor compressor and some smart controller. an improvement can be a variable speed pump or maybe a heat exchanger with a control valve.

This is NUTS! We need a whole series with this cooler!

I absolutely love the Alex written videos! You can tell he’s gotten a lot more professional but I love the sketchy chaos vibe he brings to the videos! 😂

Love watching super smart pc guys try to tackle actual mechanical things. Makes me feel good that I don’t know half the stuff you are talking about in your pc videos but I could have take. That chiller apart and put it back together in the time it took you to flush the chiller. Lol.

Like many have said already direct die cooling with this would be a pretty cool follow up video. Maybe with testing different TIMs too

I can't wait to see this in a direct die cooling loop!

I found this funny because I have these all around at the factory I work at. So cool to see how well they can work

This was insanely batshit crazy to watch. I want one. Or two. By far my fav vid so far this year!

There are a couple units like this at my job 2 that are larger at 7000 and 10000w.

Episode idea: try different materials for your water block to increase thermal conductivity. Copper is at 4.0 W/cm K but silver is at 4.3 W/cm K. Make one expensive silver water block and see if you can draw more heat off a processor.

Maybe grind a few thousandths of an inch off the mating surfaces for a better surface finish and thus better thermal transfer. Get this idea to Linus because I think it might be a cool project.

I suspect the better approach is no-material. Copper conductivity might be low, but grinding down to almost nothing is even lower. Silver is so soft that I would guess you would need more than 10% thicker.

The only way to go up from here is to de-lid. Would be really interesting to see the results though.

The chillers used in the tool for the lens, stage, and many parts that need stable temperature control for sub micron registration, uses chillers with much tighter temperature control by an order of magnitude.The temperature controller uses fuzzy logic to maintain the temperature within 0.01 degrees C. Among other rebuild tasks, I rebuild those as when they run 24/7 the pumps, valves, controls, and compressors wear out.

I think the most impressive thing was I could hear both of you talking at seemingly normal voice volumes while the cooler was running.

Its pretty neat seeing that chiller outside of where i work. We have ran many of them for years for things. The valve on the back is a bypass valve to control pressure. Be sure to press the arrow down button and tune it. They can reach in excess of 85psi water pressure.

11:00 Yeah... Those units are meant to cool very hot stuff to between room temperature and warm. Not to chill something below room temperature and especially not for keeping something at a specific temperature^^ So usually they are really just meant to get rid of heat and you never really set them below room temperature to avoid condensation. Without a load they will overshoot. They're built for a constant load. We use smaller variants to condense and cool water (In rotary evaporators, basically distillation machines, but instead of temperature they use a fixed temperature difference of 40 °C and a varying vacuum to distill different solvents and liquids) or to cool ICP-MS instruments (inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometers, instruments who heat anything until it becomes a plasma, to then analyze its atomic composition via the mass spectrometer. To do that it uses an argon plasma stream which is insanely hot (hotter than the surface of the sun) and needs cooling).

The highest quality water chillers used with lasers actually have a user defined set point for water temperature on the outlet and they can accommodate changing loads (i.e. for lasers that are used at various powers). The way they work is they run the compressor (i.e. cooling side) full beans and throttle a heater inside a small water tank connected with the main tank. Between the tanks there's an electrovalve that connects or disconnects the small tank to the big one. The compressor is way too big and has way too much thermal inertia to allow rapid adjustments in output fluid temperature with only the compressor. Hence, the small heater. The cooling of the compressor can be to ambient air for small units, or to processed chilled water for bigger units. The processed chilled water in these water to water units is also at a pretty regulated temperature, so yes... you can have temperature regulation of 0.1 degrees at the output even for changing loads. I'm a high power laser engineer and we use these chillers all the time. We even service them in the lab if needed as well.

I've worked with these coolers! They're used also used for cooling ICPs (for testing for metals in liquids)

🎶 Fucking magnets how do they work?

I’ve set up tons of these TF-5Ks out in the field and the cooling overshoot from 5 degrees down to 3 is from the PIDs needing tuning. Since these units are so versatile, they have PID tuning parameters in the menus so you can tuning the compressor duty cycle to whatever heat load you have. The menus make no sense btw, I always had to have the manual handy to decipher them. 😂

I have to make my insane gratidute for everything LMG does known. I mean I couldn‘t care less about some fancy cooler. But somehow the incredible video team and Linus manage to produce videos that are sooo fun to watch and have such good production quality. I‘m so thankful everytime we get a little look behind the scenes it baffles me time and again too see the amount of effort poured into making these videos! And it‘s free to watch 🤯 - btw I got two water bottles and they are the best I ever had.

Full room water cooling need to be brought back with this thing I love it.

This was the best cooling video, please use this device more :)

It is totally time to revisit whole room water cooling like you did WAY back in the day. I bet that thing could totally make that work.

My mother-in-law still has a pc with the first cooler you showed in this video. I had to change it to a bigger cooler and fan, because the original started making noise. Now it makes more noise, but more consistent :D

Great video. I'm so glad you guys have this chiller now! With all the stuff Linus has bought recently, I can't believe it has taken this long to get a chiller like this (and it was only because of "John"). Those "gas" valves are labeled on the side (7:07). 600 WOG. That stands for 600 PSI rated water, oil, or gas. You can use that valve for water, oil, or gas. It should be noted that it may not be lead free, so while WOG means you can use it on water, you may not want to use it on a pipe that someone will be drinking or cooking from. All this is true in the USA, so I imagine it's mostly true up North a little ways as well. Also, I love the "cause that to go erect" with the high pitch engineering laugh shortly after. "You know what's fantastic Linus? We cannot kill ourselves with this, mostly" is a close second.

Every time I watch one of these videos, I'm more and more tempted to try some really jank watercooling setups on my own PC

theoretically since you applied the cooling via a mini split (in a past video), you could cool a pc with a 3-ton unit using copper lines to cool your pc, currently i'm doing a build in which normally a furnace would have all its essential needs in it, but ripped out completely, mounting all your pc essentials on a back plate of sheet metal and pulling those copper lines straight from the evaporator coil sitting on the furnace case to your cpu & gpu, and back out to the ac unit, no fans would be needed since you could cut an opening in which the blower motor shoots air thru all the components, all you would need is a call of 24v to the out door units contactor to signal the ac to turn on and either a temp sensor or a relay to tell the ac when to stop, lol it may not be price efficient but its for shits and giggles.

I could see this thing actually being useful for the lab. Absolutely normalizing the fluid temps to test the maximum-balls-to-the-walls settings on devices is interesting.

11:20 = me screaming irl "WHY LINUS?!??!! WHY????!!!!!???!!"

We use chillers at my work place to run chilled coolant through industrial welding equipment, very neat and powerful machines (cooling capacity wise).

Yess we definitely need a Part 2 to this video ❄️

Their cooler videos are some of my absolute favorites. As Linus once generally said, I love watching graphs and boxes fill up.

This is a big improvement over the way we cooled the laser at my first job, which was to hook up the water inlet to a utility sink in the next room, and the have the outlet just drain out a hose into that same sink. Every morning I had to turn on the faucet enough to cool the laser, while checking for a little bit to make sure the sink wasn't filling faster than it could drain. At the end of the day I had to turn off the laser, and do the process in reverse. Not exactly a gold star for conservation.
