Could human blood be used as coolant in a WC loop?

[Deleon.David]

blood dries up very very fast. i wouldnt recommended it.
plus it's going to stink up your whole rig

What have I just read.... Why would you want to use blood anyway? >.>

he just "found" some laying around, gotta use it for something right?

How about asking the blood bank to take it? How does one just have a bag of blood lying around anyway...

I think menstruation is possible.

that's not clean it has bits of meat and other stuffs in it.

There's a reason why bite the neck instead of hanging under menstruating woman.

Probably not because it would coagulate in hours

Technically it most likely would not coagulate as there are no coagulation factors, such as fibrin, present in the blood. These factors are produced in the liver and released from the liver when a wound is recieved.

Using blood in a water cooling loop is feasible, but would have to be chhanged a lot more than water as the red blood cells would deteriorate and die much quicker as of the lack of energy produced via gycolysis.

These dead cells would then stick to the insides of the tubes and could form blockages, these clumps of dead cells could be made worse if the platelets clump to the dead cells and create blockages.

To make it better you could top have two resevoirs in the loop, one filled with blood, the second with glucose and other minerals that are required for the blood cells to create energy. A third could be filled with liquid O₂ to help facilitate O binding to the heme groups which *could* prolong the life of the red blood cells.

Don't forget that +/-92% of blood is made up of water so it woudl conduct heat relatively well, or even better due to it's density.

 

So YES it CAN be used as a coolant.

hi guys, i was just wondering if blood could be used as coolant, and how would it perform? or should i just buy distilled water. 

not until they make neural net processors, a learning computer.

Give it a shot and show us the graphs of Ionized water vs Blood, would be great with Halloween coming up!

Kramer is donating blood and ends up having to use it in the radiator in the car when it overheats... they don't really say if it works or not though.
