Cooling without radiator or fans

[Tombu]

I have a specific build idea in my head and know roughly what I want to do. I won't really explain the build because it's not that important.

 

In the build, I won't be able to have airflow, so I need another way to cool my rig. I thought about liquid cooling, but everything I saw so far is with a radiator and usually fans. It'll definitely build up temperature inside the case. I can't/don't want to put the radiator outside of the build because it would destroy the aesthetics of it. Is there any way to have a cooling system completely inside the case and without airflow? Is a system that works like a fridge possible? What's it called?

A refrigerator has a fan, you know. 

Basically, no. You need some form of airflow to move heat away from components if you're willing to have radiators that can (kind of) work passively.

Well, honestly this is first grade science. If you have a box and there is an endless amount of heat generating inside.... How do you get the heat out? Even refrigerators have fans/radiators on the outside to suck the heat out. So either you have fans that suck the heat out from the box or you have a heat inside the box. Lol, I cannot explain it any simpler.

Post a pic of what your case looks like, you said a radiator would ruin the aesthetics of the case so let me see the case and maybe I can come up with something.

lol are you trying to defeat physics or something

unless you make a completely passive build with custom heatpipes to transfer the heat to the case like this 

then no its no possible

 

btw this is a really low power PC, not a gaming PC

 

and a fridge has compressor, not a fan, a compressor is much louder than a fan and only works for really low heat generating objects

Ok, with the heat building up in the system wasn't properly thought through (I was just trying to get the point across that I don't want fans. Damn physics.

Yes, a fridge has a compressor and no fan, that's why I want something similar. The loudness is not suche a big factor for me (unless it's really loud).

 

An air conditioner is similar to a fridge (both use compressors to cool) and they work for more than really low heat generating objects (humans).

Similar to a big piece of acrylic glass. I don't want to cut into the glass (I have to a little bit for the I/O parts), and a big fan on one side would make the design idea senseless. I have not yet build the case. With a normal case, I'd probably would just get an air cooling system (what I have in my normal case at the moment) or liquid cooling with a radiator.
