My theory has developed into the theory that when the evap has slush all over it, it doesn't work well. Not sure if it's my whole brew, or if it's just part of it seperating and getting stuck to the evap. I have been scooping it out with a plastic ruler. Hopefully I'll get enough of it out.

My solution to that was having one submersible pump in the bath to circulate coolant thru the fins of the evap AND having the return line pour directly onto the evap fins.

I think I missed telling you that thru this thread

ny - Get in here and make some submissions for the contest. No matter the score, we are all going to get better at SPI.

No I remember you saying about pouring the return on the evan if possible, but nothing about submersible pump. I have 1 and could try that. Thanks.

Contest?

lol, yah "Contests", one of these days you need to drift outside the walls of this thread and check out the other happenings around here

Yeah I was thinking that too, but have been very involved in this particular project. reading the rules of the contest now. I can run super pi ok, but I don't know what to do with pifast.

EDIT: I cannot participate. I have no non-chilled system to use. Sorry.

rickss69 · #**247** 09-05-2010

That was amended and chilled water is fine - no more excuses.

I installed the submersible in the bottom of the tank. Should be moving some liquid down there. I have super pi mod 1.5 xs is that ok?

That is the one we use. You can get the PiFast bench from the link on the first post of the contest. (RomDom just didnt change the color of the linky so it kinda blends in lol) The desktop background pic is also there.

I tried pifast and it asked too many questions I didn't know the answer to. I don't know what settings to use.
