project: Category 5 Cyclone - C5C

http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm101/masbuskado/c5c/c5c_header_mas.jpg

I start this project in 2008 a couple of months after I finish my AirSupreme I and this one was the sequel AirSupreme II but as you may know my "AirSupreme I" evolve so I let this project out of the picture, but know I rename the project and I'll take over once again... so the concept is the same as AirSupreme I or EvO but with 120mm fans... new light color scheme, some custom modification and more air flowing...

Also this will be my first Inter-Forum thread meaning that this thread will be post in any Forum am subscribe. So it will be update simultaneously in all of the forums.

As always there is no plan cuz whatever came to my mind I'll try to do it...
So feel free to give your opinion, comment or disagreement cuz we know can't like to everybody...

So let's the mod begin...

this should turn out nice :D

[FuzzyPlushroom]

Ahh yeah, those bloody cases... I mean that literally, had one do me some damage; I eventually stole the mesh off the front and scrapped it.

I reckon you'll have better luck, though! Watching this.

The Storm Cage by masbuskado

The Main Idea is... to put a real storm inside the case... yes a real storm...
So I need the 3 basic components for that...

1. Wind: Strong winds... For this I'll need 2x powerful 140mm Case Fan. Don't worry about loudness... Looking something around 120 CFM (already see all newegg fans - budget $30)

2. Water: Heavy Rain... For this I'll need some kind of tiny sprinkler to create some shower effect (1/4" or 1/2" will be good).

3. Lightning: Massive Thunder... I was looking for some flashing blinking disco light tiny enough to fit into the build (already founded see pics).

All the components will be added into The Storm Cage I'll make out of acrylic...

So basically right now I'll need some help finding the fans and the sprinkler just point me out where I can found them and thank you!!!

I'll explain how this thing gonna work later...

here's a pic of the fan I'll use...

[nevermind1534]

I got that fan to use in a friend's computer if that's the 140mm one

[masbuskado]

I got that fan to use in a friend's computer if that's the 140mm one

yes that is the 140mm fan...

I think this video should answer some question...

They're good fans. I got the fastest one and gave it 5V, instead of 12. That makes it really quiet.

That video could probably give some people seizures.

lol nice strobe light

How it Work - The Storm Cage

http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm101/masbuskado/c5c/HIW_stormcage_nmc.jpg

I think this should create the Storm Effect base on my previous test in my lab... :D

[SXRguyinMA]

neat idea, but how are you going to keep the water from blowing out the back? :think:

[DonT-FeaR]

lol i asked the same thing but the water will all be in a plexi case am i right?

[SXRguyinMA]

yea but he's going to have fans blowing the water...so he's got to have air coming in and air going out :think:

[DonT-FeaR]

grate at top...? lol idk

let him explain..lol

Sorry guys I was kind of busy trying to put together my website...
So let me update you... the image is just a rough design... I'll publish the final design maybe tonight also I'll buy the plexi today...

about The Storm Cage... don't worry about the hole in the back I just put it there for reference... So I think you both know how Storm works...

(Strong winds + Heavy Rain + Some Lightnings) so basically is the same here... but inside a cage... the water will be collect it by the reservoir at the bottom of the cage... so that the main plan so far... like I said before I'll buy the plexi today... so I'll cut it and try to make this thing right at once... :smoker:

[SXRguyinMA]

I'm dying to see how this works out, I love the idea! :D

[masbuskado]

I'm dying to see how this works out, I love the idea! :D

:( was kind of busy doing some cyber-setting but I have all the material sitting around so expect an update next weekend or maybe during the week!!!

Just one thing, you're gonna have to be sure to put distilled water into the rain chamber. Otherwise, the dissolved minerals will fall out and you'll have scale on the inside of the tank.

[Frenkie]

Very novel idea ! I like it ! I only hope it will look a bit like you planned it will be, when its done. I can imagine the tiny waterdrops will cling to the acrylic and make the vision in the storm cage a bit less. But lets wait and see for that. I dont have to tell you everything needs to be watertight...... :P For example, the fans are now straight in 90 degrees into the wall, but that could give some waterspill. Ill be watching you :)

[DonT-FeaR]

hehhee...
frenkie is intrigued... so am i

Here are more pictures of the front...

In this chapter we're going to disassemble the lightning machine to see how we are going to connect that to the PSU and move the controller to the front of the case.

The Storm Cage ver. 2.0
The first design was nice but it didn't let the air from the 2x 140mm fans go into the cage to create the chaos I was expecting so I decided to cut the front and add something I found at a local 0.99 cent store.

- Controlling Mother Nature
- Temp Test

<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_1cUxXPf8dY&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_1cUxXPf8dY&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

Initial Temp 70F (Warm water was used to make this Test)
15 Min (After): 68F
30 Min (After): 67.5F
45 Min (After): 67.1F

Without any special setting or Hardware, just the The Storm Cage, the Pump and the NMC CPU Water Block.

So now I'll explain how the Storm Cage Works...

First it takes the water from the bottom of the Cage and distributes it through the loop... Then it hit the Rain Chamber where the water goes down as drops... then this drops are cool down by the strong winds from the 2x 140mm Fan in the front...

So is like having Mother Nature inside a Computer Case. I can adjust the rain frequency and the wind velocity so I can control the Storm inside the Cage...

Hopefully that make sense to all of you!!!

[masbuskado]

Well that's it for now!!!

[SXRguyinMA]

nice!!! :bowdown:
