Title: What if ?!
Post by: CrissTM on August 24, 2009, 02:18:38 pm
Hi,
I have a question.
What if, I use in a water cooling system a very good anti-freezer for cars, and not a special coolant for water cooling ?!
This one has also the Corrosion-preventive in composition !
Will be the result not the same ?

best for water cooling and heat exchange is pure Distilled water
anti-freezer is usually coupled with chiller setup which require the water to go with subzero temp ,

OK
My question was not clear enuff.
Of course the main coolant will be the distilled water.
What i ment is the anti-freezer for the pourpose of corrosion-preventive not as a coolant.
So, can it be used insted of special liquid ?!

In theory yes , but i do not recommend it since many of those anti-freezer form a kind of small ball which can restrict fairly your water flow .
