Locked Re: OT Hot Hot Hot
开云体育I should hope not.? Not only would we burn ourselves using our lathes in that kind of heat, but our perspiration dripping on the machines would create a lot of rust.? ?Besides, if temperatures on earth were to increase to 80°C (176°F) , the only organism that might still able to reproduce at that temperature would be Staphylothermus marinus (which is the archaebacterium that lives off of volcanic gasses emitted from deep oceanic trenches).? All other living things would die off and wouldn’t be able to return. ? Jerry F.? ????? ? From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chris Albertson

Yes, You are correct. ?The best you can expect with forced air cooling is to cool the part to ambient temperature. ? You can of course, never get there, no matter how big the fan. ? ? ? But again the parts are spec’d for 80C and even in another 50 years it will likely never get to 80C on Earth. ? ? ? ?

? Most of the parts are rated for at least 80C. Parts will work OK even if they are so hot they ould burn your skin. ? ? That said service life can depend on temperature. ? With air cooling, the cooling efferct depends on the square root of the air velocity. ?So you get the most gain with the fist small amount of airflow and then after that diminishing return ? The first increment is simple convection. ?Hot air raises and creates air motion. ?Better if you put hole in ther top and in the bottom ? The lower holes are just as important as the holes near the top. ?The idea is to allow the air to flow. ? ? ? Then if there is not enough movement by convection, add a fan. ? ? Ideally you keep the electronics at about 40C or less. ? Mike Taglieri? ? On Sun, Jul 7, 2024, 1:07 AM Ralph Lehotsky via <ralphlehotsky=[email protected]> wrote:
