Red Fox UK Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 nope, it heats the liquid in the pipes via thermal transfer from the cpu heatsink, perhaps Georg could make use of it to warm his beer up Regards Bellman 29139[/snapback] And then the cooler thing cools the liquid back down Red Fox | Hosting Affordable and Reliable UK Based Web Hosting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellman Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 And then the cooler thing cools the liquid back down 29141[/snapback] I know, The topic of the conversation was about cooling the cpu, that would involve heat from the cpu passing into the cooling system. The 2nd law of thermodynamics if I remember correctly states that heat moves spontaneously from a hot body to a cool one and not the other way around. but that's ok, as both you and Georg can use it for cooling / heating your beer in that case Regards Bellman Service Engineer and all round nice bloke ) The views above are mine and NOT those of my employer.

bellman Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 And before Georg asks, The second law is expressed mathematically in terms of the concept of entropy. When a body absorbs an amount of heat Q from a reservoir at temperature T, the body gains and the reservoir loses an amount of entropy S=Q/T. Thus, in a reversible adiabatic process (no heat change) there is no change in the total entropy. If an amount of heat Q flows from a hot to a cold body, the total entropy increases; because S=Q/T is larger for smaller values of T, the cold body gains more entropy than the hot body loses. The statement that heat never flows from a cold to a hot body can be generalized by saying that in no spontaneous process does the total entropy decrease. It's called the Carnot cycle after French physicist Sadi Carnot. Regards Bellman Service Engineer and all round nice bloke ) The views above are mine and NOT those of my employer.
