Plain-English notes on fluorine and PFAS in cooling fluids, how a simulation is checked against published data, why our surface tensions ran high, and what a modelled result is worth.

Each post explains one idea for a technical investor or a data-center engineer, and links to the published files behind it. Every number in the posts is read from a published file when the pages are built, except the fuel recount of the screen’s rated blends, which comes from a blend table we do not publish. No FluxZero fluid has been mixed or measured yet. Subscribe by feed.

How the numbers on this page are checked
Each underlined number is read from a published file when the site is built, and the build stops if the page and the file disagree. A number would be marked if
  • its file were still loading in your browser,
  • the question behind it had not been looked into,
  • it had been looked for and not found,
  • its file held no value for it,
  • its file were missing or had changed,
  • two files disagreed about what it describes,
  • its sample were too small for the claim,
  • two files gave it different values,
  • its file could not be published,
  • the file it is read from had last changed more than thirty days before this build,
  • the question did not apply to this page or
  • the program that makes it had stopped with an error; no underlined number on this page is marked.
A number in plain text, without the underline, is not checked this way and carries no mark; the date each file last changed is in the list of published files.
