A mineral oiled cooled computer system was built by our IT students.
How It Works ?
1. Submerge components
Standard computer components are submerged in mineral oil. The mineral oil is non-conductive, so the electronics do not short out.
2. Transfer heat to oil
Heat generated by the PC is transferred into the mineral oil at a rate over 5 times better than air.
3. Dissipate heat
The mineral oil is pumped through a radiator to dissipate the heat into the ambient air.
