BF2S Forums Concrete Slab Water Cooling

Maintenance will be a bitch, and we all know how often PC components and peripherals break down...

I would be more impressed to see the forethought he has put into the procedures to empty the system, change a pump, etc.

Some supercomputer was cooled by using the heat to warm the water in local swimming pool.

Its just copper tubing.... everything else is in the house. Copper tubing running through the innards of a house is nothing out of the ordinary.  He is building the house him self and is knowledgeable enough to figure out the required head, and take steps to prevent galvanic corrosion.... He seems to know what he is doing and has a handle on it.

Flaming, Nic, what are you guys talking about?

At this point, all he's done is bend some tube. There's lots of discussion on the details within the thread.

one of my mums supercomputers was the size of a large room, encased in something with a permanent waterfall going over the casing. they had it as a sort of water feature in the lobby.
