Hi, I lost the message that I am referring to. Someone said they put a resistor in series with the fan motor in order to make it run quieter. How do you determine that there is still sufficient air f

Hi John, I'm glad you have made some good measurements that seem to indicate you are still getting sufficient cooling at the slower fan speed. I am curious what the meaurements were before the resist

I rarely chirp in but I do as many "power" computer users do & that's "water cooling" on my computer. There's a large market for these kind of heat sinks & in short what is done is to have water repl

This seems off-topic, but anyway... Some of the larger xmtr tubes have water cooling jackets; they must predate the PC. So, nothing new here, except applying it to transistor finals. You need a sourc

Martin, The problem with air is that to cool a space as small as a chip, and yet remove perhaps 80 watts of power from that confined space, requires substantial amounts of air. This is more than can

Hi Gary, The original post was in regards to an amplifier which uses a pair (maybe 4) 572B triodes. These are glass envelope tubes. While it may be possible to precool the air using a chilled water s

One of the problems people using the Peltier chips for cooling is that the hot side stil needs to be cooled and if you use a fan on that you'll be defeating the noise issue. In the computer most peop

Ken, I certainly agree that we are not going to run cold water through 572B's. In the modern shack there are (at least) three places where there might be a fan, or a fan might be useful (RTTY), and t

Many tubes are cooled with finned heatsinks, which also double as shields. I'm sure many of you have seen this done. For that matter, many tubes have metal cases. Any idea if a 572B or similar tube h

Steve... My 1KW Heathkit SB230 from ...I guess the early '80s uses a heat sink cooled tube. A single 8873, it uses no fan...just a heat sink on the back and does an easy 600 watts out. Totally quiet!

It was the 70's and the mobile amp was (as I recall) the HA-14 using 2x 572B's. The problem with the SB230, apart from the tube being highly poisenous, is simply the cost of a new tube and the extrem
