      Same here, I was astonished at this level of ingenuity; Simplicity in it's conveyor, walk along the practical problems, and the lack of being able to see problems that can't be novely solved was also inspiring!
      The whole idea of 'an only „clean/cold„ air case' using hydrokinetic magnetic pneumatics is also quite genius... That is displacing soo much air and with pretty solid pressure, design improvements might lead to new silent PC capabilities and maybe out preforming any water loop; imaging heat pipe jungles with fins every which way in that box with an air-conditioned via metallic water pipe from a freezer loop in the intake air source, keeping it dry. Mini-DataCeneric!

    Fluid mechanics PhD here:
    First of all, fantastic, and I want one. The magnet growing trick is the type of hypercomplicated solution I like to see in my science. Second, a couple of little improvement ideas for your next design:
    1) The system has a good amount of "dead volume", which is air that's not strictly involved in the pumping process. mostly around the outside of the pump system. Dead volume like that is going to do two things, which are slightly in opposition. First, it's going to decrease the overall pressure your pump is able to produce in the system, because relatively more of the energy of the pump is going to compress air that isn't really doing anything. On the other hand, the dead volume is also going to buffer the airflow so it's a bit more consistent. I'm not sure which matters more, although I suspect higher pressure would give you faster airflow. And as a bonus, you save a bit of space. Ultimately, your max pressure is going to depend on the quality of your seals, though.
    2) You might be able to make the airflow go directly up through the radiator without some of the extra enclosure box. If the primary connection goes from pump -> joining chamber -> CPU chamber, you can lower the number of pieces you need. The pump mechanism would be exactly the same as you have it, but on the top there would be a one way valve for each side. This would allow air to flow one way into the joining chamber. Then you don't need another one-way valve until the very top of the PC. You flow the air directly up past the cooling components, where the air then goes out the top. In theory, this would create not so much a "breathing" flow, but a direct one-way flow past the components, which should help reduce the overall dissipation of energy from having the air switch directions all the time.
    3) Another option would be to go with a design like a steam engine. You have your breathing mechanism tied to a moving valve that itself controls the direction of the airflow. This ends up allowing you to not need one-way valves at all, as the flow of the air is always going to be directed upward.
    makeagif.com/i/74-zjb [gif of steam engine operation. In the steam engine case, it's high pressure air from the yellow triangle that's moving the piston and wheel. But it works just as well in reverse, where the piston moves the air]

    • @astroalyn2010
      @astroalyn2010 3 роки тому

    • @caseyglick5957
      @caseyglick5957 3 роки тому +1

      ​@@astroalyn2010 I think I was able to figure out what's going on from shots at 11:59 and 17:53. The first thing to consider is that each half (R/L) is in some way isolated. So you can consider what happens on the left side, and then just flip it over and you get the same effect on the right.
      Walking through the cycle: You start in the Piston Left (PL) position. All the pressures have equilibrated and there's no air moving. Then the piston moves left->right. The volume of the "breath chamber" increases, meaning that air needs to be pulled in to equalize the pressure. This air has only two places it can come from on the left side: the vents to the outside and the vents to the "CPU chamber". The CPU chamber is denied, though, because of the one-way flap valves (17:53) that allow air to only go left->right (into the CPU chamber and not out). So instead the air comes from the outside flaps on the left, which open in the direction of Outside->Inside. This air then flows into the breath chamber, equalizing the pressure.
      The piston completes this half cycle and ends up in on the Piston Right (PR) position. Then it starts its backward R->L movement. This *decreases* the volume in the left side of the breath chamber, forcing the air out to keep the pressure from rising. Except this time, the flaps to the outside are *closed* (the only open in, remember). Instead, the air gets forced out into the CPU chamber, and then out a set of flaps in the top, which only open up.
      Then the piston completes the R->L half cycle, makes it back to PL position, and everything starts over.
      The exact same thing is happening on the right side of the chamber, except with the opposite direction. When the piston is moving L->R, the air is getting pumped into the CPU chamber, and when the piston is moving back R->L, that half is having its air supply built back up.
      The design is slightly inefficient (brilliant, but a first draft) because it's having each half work independently. If the breath chamber were open to the air on the right and left (so not in the bigger box) and had the flaps directly inside, then the piston could force the air straight up through a pair of one-way valves on the L/R side. This air could then move *up* through the CPU chamber, rather than moving side/side. Then you could have something where the air direction ends up flowing up on both the right and left strokes of the piston, meaning the air doesn't have to stop and "reset" each time. This would reduce turbulence in the CPU chamber and let smooth laminar flow carry more heat out, and could substantially reduce the size of the overall system. As I mentioned before, this is very much how a steam engine works, or an air compressor, if you're working in reverse (www.aircompressorscout.net/wp-content/uploads/reciprocating-piston.gif although note that this is a single stroke design. @DIYPerks could totally do that method, but the double-sided design looks *way* cooler).

    Having watched, certainly, thousands of videos over the years and being a PC enthusiast myself, this is undoubtedly one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my entire life. When the temperature of the GPU was finally revealed I couldn't help but throw my hands infront of me with fingers spread, a flabbergasted expression on my face, all the while exclaiming "WHAT!?". I mean, I had a feeling it would be somewhere around that number after having seen the CPU temperature already, but considering the engineering behind it all and hearing 62°C was simply mind-blowing. This is an amazing work of engineering and art. Absolutely fantastic.
    Now please excuse me while I excitedly share this video with everyone I know.

      it's only getting air from one side at a time so no, that's not a factor. What I think is making the difference is the fact that he's built an enclosure that is strictly sealed, which puts a lot of momentum and pressure behind the air movement. Just having fans in a normal pc case with vents everywhere would not be able to do that. When fans are having to suck air and also push and/or pull through a radiator, they're not going to be as good as when they're just blowing into a plastic bag like he did for his informal "test" of his invention. It seems like the "lung" is more capable of overcoming that resistance than the noctua fans

      What you're saying is that is you blow 10cf of air every two seconds, that's equal to blowing 10cf of air every second, which is obviously BS.

    This has all the elements of good storytelling.
    He starts with a protagonist that looks ordinary enough.
    Then he gives us a back story that *shows* that he is good at DIY work. He built a fairly unique piece of tech using arcane means.
    Now he is going to make it even more awesome, because everything always works out for handsome DIY cool tech guy...
    Then the acrylic tube breaks.
    Chaos ensues. It's impossible to fix the tube. He is famous after all and has money. He buys dozens of replacement tubes but none of them fit. The public loses confidence in him. The video is half way done. Is this the end of Mr Perks?
    The protagonist goes back to his roots. He goes back to the very spirit that got him started. Do It Yourself. He uses his past knowledge to come up with the clever idea of plating the magnet with more nickel.... It works. Victory.
    He slowly and carefully completes his project. The ventilation works, the computer performs well. He is happy about it, but he admits that he knows this is not very practical after all. "It does what I set out to..." He is left a changed man. He learned something along the way. And at the very end, there is a glint in his eyes and he says: "I hope you join me in my next video."
    Maybe, just maybe, the story is not over. We will get to see what he learned... in the next video.
    *****
    That's why I am always looking forward to his next videos.
