Hi,
Whilst I know that a maximum length could be computed for every configuration of pump & tubing given the max head and flow rates (and various assumptions), I wondered if anyone had some 'rules-of-thumb' for maximum loop length of some common single pump systems based on e.g. the Alphacool DC-LT2, Alphacool DDC 310 and Eheim 1046 (with let's say 16/10 piping).
Context: I am intending to make use of a water-cooling loop to move the heat from some computers to a more convenient location for a radiator bank, which is likely to be 3-4m away in tubing length (so total loop length through a machine approaching 9m).
Thanks in advance.
