Re: You are simply not equiped
Well, I do own a HVAC business, and happen to know a little about dissapation of heat with liquids.
If water was exposed to the vacum of space with heat in it, before it could freeze it might boil off and lose its heat to space during that process. The boiling point of water lowers in a vacum.
Once again you claim to be an HVAC tech. Have you ever worked on an absorbsion chiller unit? It uses vacum and heat to produce cold water.

Re: You are simply not equiped
But this point you bring out, is what I am trying to say to you. Do you know why it operates in a vacum?
Do you know why we pull a vacum on a system before charging it with freon?
And technically it doesn't produce cold, you cannot produce cold, you can only remove heat. There is absolute zero, and then everything after that is heat. Cold is a reletive term to describe how you feel in certain tempuratures.
It can operate in a vacum because the brine solution will boil at a lower temperature in a vacum, but you must always have a heat source, that heat source is the cold water coil.
I said nothing about producing cold. I said cold water. I think 42 degree water will count as cold in the decidedly non-tech talk here. This mention of the definition of cold is a red herring to divert attention from the fact that your own trade disproves your "cooling in space' theory.

Re: You are simply not equiped
Two reasons: to remove (noncondensable) air that would lower the effectiveness of freon condensation and, more importantly, to remove any water that would make ice and plug things up. Nothing to do with the vacuum of space
you stole my answer!!

Re: You are simply not equiped
And do any of you know what a cumulonympho cloud is?
No.
You seem to know more about basic HVAC than the rat, but I'll give him a point for mentioning Librant units as they are used in computer rooms. Nothing wrong with being ignorant as we all started that way. Claiming it's a virtue???
