Ok guys, this is the begining of another Computer Project for me. The whole continuing theory i love about computers is overclocking your sh*t to the max. Everyone knows that a bigger OC needs more voltage but generates more heat, so you must disperse the heat and viola!!! Instant nice over clock. But what happens when water itself (at room temperature) isn't enough?
Project: Frosty
Picked u p one a A/C unit. Link to itis below.
http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?BV_UseBVCookie=Yes&vertical=APPL&pid=04274054000
$69.99 at sears. A nice little window A/C unti (rated at 5150 btu's).
Then i proceeded to take the shell off, undo a few brackets, screws and etc. The unit itself has a motor that controls a dual fan. One fan that blows onto the condensor and the other onto the evaporator. The evaportater of course is the part that gets cold. But with a fan blowing on it, that puts "hot" room temperature air on it and "warms" it up. So i had to remove that fan, which was pretty easy and just leave the condensor fan to blow. Now, (the cool part) once you do this fire up the A/C unti and turn the knob to as cold as it will let you and wait about 25 minutes. After that a thick layer of snow has formed all over the evaporrator and part of the compressor. This temperature is about -25 celsius. Pics below of the unit. Next step is to cut off the evaporator and make a special coilded one of my own out of 1/4 copper pipe using about 20ft then braze my custom evaporator back to the compressor and recharge the system with some R22 freon.
Till then, enjoy the pics below (notice the solid white on the front of the unit, thats snow from the wator vapor forming on the copper and blue colored evaporator that came with the A/C unit.
